Can DHEC use volunteer water quality monitoring data?
Any organization interested in submitting water quality data for regulatory purposes (such as the 303(d) list) should use laboratories certified by the DHEC Office of Environmental Laboratory Certification for the test methods of record. We strongly encourage you to contact the DHEC Office of Quality Assurance and submit a Quality Assurrance Project Plan (QAPP) for approval prior to initiating sampling. For the Department to use any non-DHEC data in development of the 303(d) list, submittal of non-DHEC data should be accompanyed with an approved QAPP. For additional information, please contact Mihir Mehta.
