The quality of analytical data is of utmost importance in determining whether a potential contamination incident has occurred in a utility's water supply. Proper procedures for handling samples and managing data must be followed from the moment of notification of such a potential incident. Sacrificing quality assurance procedures or taking shortcuts can be tempting in the demand for speed. With a strong quality assurance program in place and regularly in use, these built-in and practiced procedures will support the unexpected. Utilities and laboratories collecting, analyzing, or handling special samples from emergency response situations need to maintain the quality that ensures the validity of these samples. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) has procedures in place should such an incident occur.
