Annual Calibration Program Report

1. Requirement In accordance with the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) Contract 14E17PC00014 Task Order E17PD00117, Section 2.8.CC, Applied Research Associates, Inc.

(ARA) submits the Annual Calibration Program Report as part of the Annual Deliverables requirement.

2. Approach ARA has completed a review of instrumentation inventory and identified equipment calibration status and needs. Equipment is categorized as test equipment or laboratory instrumentation, and listed in Appendix A and B, respectively.

Equipment calibration is an integral part of ARA QA/QC program to ensure that measurements are accurate. Where applicable, test instruments will be sent to the manufacturer, or a calibration lab as recommended by the manufacturer or industry standards. When practical, instrumentation performance will be verified in-situ to confirm the data acquisition system is configured and operating properly. Calibration intervals and processes for the test equipment are listed in Appendix A. Calibration and measurement parameters of the laboratory instrumentation is listed in Appendix B.

3. Summary Calibration frequencies vary from once per year to calibrations performed on a provisional basis according to usage. Much of the laboratory equipment is calibrated by Ohmsett staff periodically throughout its use, as noted. For example, the analytical balance is calibrated before each use.

These calibrations follow standard practice and are acceptable. The viscometer/rheometer and water bath are annually calibrated on-site by the manufacturer. As a part of ARA’s QA/QC program, the Ohmsett QA/QC manager, with the assistance of on-site Ohmsett personnel if needed, will conduct a review of the calibration practices and will document any findings and/or recommendations in monthly status reports to BSEE.
