Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs) and Quality Management Plans (QMPs) are the primary documents used to implement EPA’s Quality Program. Each year, thousands of QAPPs and QMPs are developed and updated for EPA review and approval. Under the Information Technology/Information Management (IT/IM) Directives’ clearance structure, these “requirements” documents will be updated and re-issued as IT/IM Standards, and the guidance document will be updated, reissued, and remain a guidance.
To ensure partnership engagement, the Enterprise Quality Management Division is looking for states and tribes interested in participating in the effort to update the following:
- EPA QA/R-2, EPA Requirements for Quality Management Plans (March 2001)
- EPA QA/R-5, EPA Requirements for Quality Assurance Project Plans (March 2001)
- EPA QA/G-5, Guidance for Quality Assurance Project Plans (December 2002)
Please contact Linda Himmelbauer to get involved.
