  Description:
    Abstract:
      The Southern California Bight (SCB; Figure I-1),
      an open embayment in the coast between Point
      Conception and Cape Colnett (south of Ensenada),
      Baja California, is an important and unique
      ecological resource.  The SCB is a transitional
      area that is influenced by currents from cold,
      temperate ocean waters from the north and warm,
      tropical waters from the south.  In addition, the
      SCB has a complex topography, with offshore
      islands, submarine canyons, ridges and basins,
      which provide a variety of habitats.  The mixing
      of currents and the diverse habitats in the SCB
      allow for the coexistence of a broad spectrum of
      speceis, including more than 500 speceis of fish
      and several thousand speceis of invertebrates.
      The SCB is also a major migration route, with
      marine bird and mammal populations ranking among
      the most diverse in north temperate waters.  The
      coastal zone of the SCB is a substantial economic
      resource.  Los Angeles/Long Beach Harbor is the
      largest commercial port in the United States, and
      San Diego Harbor is home to one of the largest US
      Naval facilities in the country.  More than 100
      million people visit southern California beaches
      and coastal areas annually, bringing an estimated
      $9B into the economy.  Recreational activities
      include diving, swimming, surfing, and boating,
      with about 40,000 pleasure boats docked in 13
      coastal marinas within the region (NRC 1990).
      Recreational fishing brings in more than $500M per
      year.  The SCB is one of the most densely
      populated coastal regions in the country, which
      creates stress upon its marine environment.
      Nearly 20 million people inhabit coastal Southern
      California, a number that is expected to increase
      another 20% by 2010 (NRC 1990).  Population growth
      generally results in conversion of open land into
      non-permeable surfaces.  More than 75% of southern
      Californian bays and estuaries have already been
      dredged and filled for conversion into harbors and
      marinas (Horn and Allen 1985).  This hardening of
      the coast increases the rate of runoff and can
      impact water quality through addition of sediment,
      toxic chemicals, pathogens and nutrients to the
      ocean.  Besides the impacts of land conversion,
      the SCB is already home to fifteen municipal
      wastewater treatment facilities, eight power
      generating stations, 10 industrial treatment
      facilities, and 18 oil platforms that discharge to
      the open coast.  Each year, local, state, and
      federal agencies spend in excess of $31M to
      monitor the environmental quality of natural
      resources in the SCB (Schiff et al 2001).  At
      least 75% of this monitoring is associated with
      National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
      (NPDES) permits and is intended to assess
      compliance of waste discharge with the California
      Ocean Plan and the federal Clean Water Act, which
      set water quality standards for effluent and
      receiving waters.  Some of this information has
      played a significant role in management decisions
      in the SCB.  While these monitoring programs have
      provided important information, they were designed
      to evaluate impacts near individual discharges.
      Today, resource managers are being encouraged to
      develop management strategies for the entire SCB.
      To accomplish this task, they need
      regionally-based information to assess cumulative
      impacts of contaminant inputs and to evaluate
      relative risk among different types of stresses.
      It is difficult to use existing data to evaluate
      regional issues because the monitoring was
      designed to be site-specific and is limited to
      specific geographic areas.  The monitoring
      provides substantial data for some areas, but
      there is little or no data for the areas in
      between.  Beyond the spatial limitations, data
      from these programs are not easily merged to
      examine relative risk.  The parameters measured
      often differ among programs.  Even when the same
      parameters are measured, the methodologies used to
      collect the data often differ and interlaboratory
      quality assurance (QA) exercises to assess data
      comparability are rare.  Previous Regional
      Monitoring Studies  To begin addressing these
      concerns, there have been two previous regional
      monitoring efforts.  The first regional monitoring
      survey in 1994, called the Southern California
      Bight Pilot Project (SCBPP), was a compilation of
      12 agencies that cooperatively sampled 261 sites
      along the continental shelf between Point
      Conception and the United States/Mexico border.
      The second regional monitoring survey, called the
      Southern California Bight 1998 Regional Monitoring
      Project (Bight98), was comprised of 64 agencies
      that cooperatively sampled 416 sites between Point
      Conception and Punta Banda, Mexico.  In both
      surveys, assessments were made of water quality,
      sediment contamination, the statsu of biological
      resources and speceis diversity, and the presence
      of marine debris in depths of 10 to 200m, with
      some special emphasis in areas of anthropogenic
      inputs such as large publicly owned treatment
      works (POTWs) or large river and creek mouths.
      However, Bight98 extended what was done in 1994
      by adding additional habitats such as offshore
      islands and inshore areas like bays/harbors, as
      well as additional areas of anthropogenic inputs
      such as marinas, ports, and small POTWs.
      Moreover, a regional evaluation of shoreline water
      quality was added in 1998 that provided our first
      evaluation of the swimmability of southern
      California beaches during dry and wet weather.
      Benefits derived from both the SCBPP and Bight98
      also included the development of new useful
      technical tools that could only be developed with
      regional data sets and participation by multiple
      organizations.   For example, the project produced
      iron-normalization curves for the SCB, allowing
      distinction between natural and anthropogenic
      contributions of metals in sediments (Schiff and
      Weisberg 1998).  A Benthic Response Index was
      developed that integrates complex benthic infaunal
      data into an easily interpreted form that
      describes the degree of perturbation at a site
      (Bergen et al. 1998).  Newer, cheaper
      microbiological methods were tested and evaluated
      alongside traditional microbial measurement
      methods and now have been accepted by both the
      state health agencies for routine shoreline
      monitoring (ref).  Bight98 also improved the
      comparability among the major laboratories in the
      SCB as a result of the quality assurance and
      quality control (QA/QC) laboratory
      intercalibration exercises for chemistry and
      microbiology.  The project also produced a series
      of manuals containing standardized field,
      laboratory and data management activities that
      increased continuity of data and data reporting
      among participants, even after the regional
      monitoring surveys were completed.  2003 Survey
      The proposed Southern California Bight 2003
      Regional Monitoring Project (Bight03) is a
      continuation of the successful cooperative
      regional-scale monitoring begun in southern
      California during the 1990s.  Bight03 builds
      upon the previous successes and expands on the
      1998 survey by including new participants,
      sampling more habitats, and measuring more
      parameters or using new methods.  [Number]
      organizations, including international and
      volunteer organizations, have agreed to
      participate (Table I-1).  The inclusion of
      multiple participants, many of them new to
      regional monitoring, provides several benefits.
      Cooperative interactions among many organizations
      with different perspectives and interests,
      including a combination of regulators and
      dischargers, ensures that an appropriate set of
      regional-scale questions will be addressed by the
      study.  The additional resources brought by
      numerous participants also expands the number of
      habitats and indicators that will be sampled.
      Sampling for Bight03 will include all of the
      areas sampled in 1998, plus a new focus on
      nearshore habitats (coastal lagoons) and offshore
      habitats (inner continental slopes and basins).
      Several new technologies will be brought to bear
      in Bight03 including remote sensing from
      satellite, aerial, and land-based platforms, new
      microbial genetic and phenotypic source tracking
      techniques, and radiodating of sediments to
      determine age and accumulation of chemicals in
      sediments.
    Purpose:
      The overall goal of the coastal ecology component
      of Bight03 is to assess the condition of the
      bottom environment and the health of the
      biological resources in the SCB.  To accomplish
      this goal, Bight03 will focus on two primary
      objectives:      1.Estimate the extent and
      magnitude of ecological change in the SCB,
      2.Determine the mass balance of pollutants that
      currently reside within the SCB.  The first
      objective, estimating the amount of area (i.e.,
      number of acres) in the SCB that ecological
      conditions differ from reference conditions, is a
      departure from traditional approaches to
      environmental monitoring, which generally focus on
      estimating average condition.  Estimating the
      areal extent of ecological change offers several
      advantages.  First, it provides a more direct
      assessment of statsu.  For instance, identifying
      that the average concentration of dissolved oxygen
      in the Bight is 6.7 ppm provides less useful
      information for environmental managers than does
      identifying what percentage of the area in the
      Bight fails to meet water quality standards.  A
      second advantage of estimating areal extent
      concerns trend detection.  If conditions in the
      Bight change over time such that some areas
      improve and others worsen, the average condition
      might not change.  By estimating the areal extent
      of alteration, we will be better able to describe
      these changes.  There are two subobjectives within
      the areal extent and magnitude objective.  The
      first subobjective is to determine if the areal
      extent and magnitude vary among geographic
      regions. If we answer this question, then managers
      can determine if specific areas are in worse
      condition than others, such as areas near
      anthropogenic inputs versus those areas distant
      from inputs.  Therefore, Bight03 will compare
      condition among 11 geographic areas of interest
      (Table II-1).  These subpopulations of our study
      area were selected to represent a range of natural
      and potentially affected habitats, and include all
      of the habitats sampled in 1998.  There are three
      new habitats to be sampled in Bight03.  The first
      two are located offshore of previously sampled
      habitats; the upper continental slope (200-500m)
      and the lower slope and inner basin (500-1000m).
      The break in deep water strata is a reflection of
      an ecotone between upper slope and lower slope
      biological communities.  The third habitat is
      inshore of previous sampled habitats and includes
      coastal lagoons.  Comparison of the relative
      condition among strata not only provides
      information about the geographic distribution of
      impacts, it also allows comparison of relative
      risk from a variety of point and non-point source
      discharges.  Comparison of conditions may be
      conducted by comparing the extent of area
      exceeding a threshold of concern or by comparison
      of mean condition.  The second subobjective within
      the areal extent and magnitude objective is
      assessing the relationship between biological
      responses and contaminant exposure. Such
      associations provide the information necessary for
      risk assessment, and for developing efficient
      regional strategies for protecting the environment
      by identifying the predominant types of stress in
      the SCB ecosystem.  Therefore, this subobjective
      will be accomplished by simultaneously collecting
      numerous measures of biological response,
      contaminant exposure and habitat condition (Table
      II-2) to better identify when exposure has reached
      a level of concern.  Measuring multiple indicators
      also permits us to identify the most likely type
      of exposure leading to biological response.  The
      second primary objective will create a mass
      balance of contaminants in the SCB.  This
      objective recognizes that local monitoring
      programs only address a portion of what is
      discharged to the SCB and that contaminant inputs
      to the SCB are cumulative both among sources and
      over time.  Ultimately, both environmental
      managers and the public want to know what fraction
      of the contaminants that are discharged remain in
      the SCB and what fraction leaves the SCB.
      Therefore, Bight03 will create an inventory of
      contaminants that reside in the SCB in sediment,
      water column, and biological compartments.  The
      total mass of contaminants in these compartments
      will be compared to estimates of mass discharged
      from land based activities.  Understanding how
      much mass is in the SCB will require some new
      measurements including measurements of not just
      sediment chemistry, but estimates of accumulation
      rates in sediments, as well as new measurements in
      the water column.

      Sediment Chemistry   Chemical analysis of
      sediment samples provides an assessment of
      contaminant exposure for bottom dwelling animals.
      Sediment samples will be collected from the top 2
      cm of a Van Veen grab sample.  The chemical
      analyte list includes both inorganic and organics
      (Table II-4) and was developed to include
      contaminants of local interest as well as those
      measured in the nationwide NOAA Statsu and Trends
      program. Measurement reporting limits have been
      adopted that will allow the data to be compared to
      NOAA sediment quality guidelines for anticipated
      biological effect (Long et al. 1995).  Organics
      Organic compounds in sediments will be extracted
      with solvents and cleaned to remove interfering
      substances.  PAHs will be analyzed by GC/MS or
      HPLC.  Organochlorine pesticides and
      polychlorinated biphenyls will be analyzed by
      GC/ECD.  The accuracy of PCB measurements will be
      enhanced by measuring 41 individual congeners in
      all samples with elevated concentrations.  The PCB
      congener list was selected to include compounds
      that are abundant in the environment and compounds
      with a high potential for toxicity.  Inorganics
      Metals in sediments will be analyzed by ICP,
      ICPMS, or atomic absorption spectrophotometry
      after strong acid digestion.  Mercury will be
      analyzed by cold vapor technique.  In addition to
      trace metals, the reference elements iron and
      aluminum will also be measured in each sample.
      Normalization of the trace metal data to reference
      element concentrations will enable anthropogenic
      contamination to be distinguished from natural
      variations in background concentrations.
      Radiochemistry Radiochemical analyses will be
      conducted on sediment recovered by box corers as
      part of the Mass Balance study.  Sediment samples
      will be prepared following techniques described by
      Alexander et al. (1993) and radiochemical
      activities (210Pb, 137Cs, and 234Th) will be
      determined by gamma spectrometry.  The 210Pb
      (half-life 22.3 y) method will be used to
      determine the accumulation rate of sediment on
      this margin segment.  137Cs activities (half-life
      30.0 y), an impulse tracer produced from
      atmospheric nuclear tests with a peak input in
      1964, will be used to constrain the 210Pb
      accumulation rates.  234 Th (half-life 24 days)
      will be used to determine rates of biological
      mixing of the sediment column. Fish Tissue
      Chemistry   The objective of the fish tissue
      chemistry measurements will be to estimate health
      risk to marine birds, mammals and wildlife from
      the consumption of prey tissue.   This will be
      addressed by measuring the whole body
      concentration of the chlorinated organics
      compounds asterisked in Table II-4.  In the SCBPP
      and in Bight98, benthic fish speceis were
      selected that maximized exposure to sediment
      pathways and increased reliability that fish would
      be found over a large spatial area (i.e. fish
      guilds).  In Bight03, we will be focusing tissue
      chemistry on pelagic forage fish and squid.  These
      speceis? represent an alternate pathway to higher
      ordre predators and are predominate prey items to
      seabirds and some mammals.  The primary target
      speceis (Table II-5) will be Pacific sardine,
      Northern anchovy, Pacific mackerel, and California
      market squid.  These speceis will be collected
      using two techniques.  The first technique will
      randomly subsample all three target speceis from
      commercial landings used for rendering.  Landings
      will be grouped by CDFG fishing block into
      nearshore, offshore, and channel island strata.
      The second technique will randomly subsample
      Northern anchovy from the commercial live bait
      fishery.  This sampling will target live bait
      barges at nine locations throughout the SCB.
      Habitat Condition  	The distribution of biota is
      also affected by natural habitat factors, such as
      grain size and the amount of organic matter
      present.   Habitat indicators will be measured to
      help distinguish the relative effects of natural
      and anthropogenic factors on biotic distribution.
      Sediment grain size   Grain size will be measured
      with a laser diffraction technique, a method that
      provides greater resolution between particle size
      classes with less variability than conventional
      pipette techniques.  Two instruments will be used
      1) A Horiba LA900 which measures 74 size classes
      of particles between 0.05-1019 ?m and 2) a Coulter
      LS230 that measures 116 size classes between
      0.04-2000 ?m.   Total Organic Carbon (TOC)  TOC
      will be measured with a Carlo Erba 1108 Elemental
      Analyzer equipped with an AS/23 Autosampler.

        QUALITY ASSURANCE OBJECTIVES   A.   Overview  	The
        primary goal of the QA/QC plan is to ensure that
        the data generated in the Bight'03 survey are
        comparable among particpants.  Many different
        organizations will be participating in the
        collection and analysis of samples in Bight'03;
        encouraging and maintaining consistency in field
        and laboratory operations and ensuring data
        comparability will be critical to success of the
        project.    	Data comparability will be achieved
        through a combination of standardized methods
        (where appropriate) and performance based
        standards.  Where standardized methods have been
        agreed upon for this project, QA/QC measures will
        be used to assure that methods are applied
        consistently.  Where performance based standards
        are appropriate, QA/QC measurements will be used
        as a measure of performance.  The appropriate
        QA/QC procedures for each of the Coastal Ecology
        monitoring program components (e.g., field
        operations, water quality, water, sediment and
        tissue chemical analyses, benthic analyses,
        demersal and pelagic fish analyses) have been
        established by the Bight'03 Steering Committee.
        B.   General Approach To Quality Assurance   	The
        QA program for Bight'03 consists of two distinct
        but related activities: quality assurance and
        quality control.  Quality assurance includes
        design, planning, and management activities
        conducted prior to implementation of the project
        to ensure that the appropriate kinds and
        quantities of data will be collected.  The goals
        of quality assurance are to ensure that: 1) field
        collection, processing, and laboratory analytical
        techniques will be applied consistently and
        correctly; 2) the number of lost, damaged, and
        uncollected samples will be minimized; 3) the
        integrity of the data will be maintained and
        documented from sample collection to entry into
        the data record; 4) all data will be comparable;
        and 5) results can be reproduced.    	Quality
        control (QC) activities are implemented during the
        data collection phase of the project to evaluate
        the effectiveness of the QA activities.  QC
        activities ensure that measurement error and bias
        are identified, quantified, and accounted for, or
        eliminated, if practical.  QC activities include
        both internal and external checks.  Typical
        internal QC checks include repeated measurements,
        internal test samples, use of independent methods
        to verify findings, and use of standard reference
        materials.  Typical external QC checks include
        exchanging samples among laboratories for
        reprocessing to test comparability of results,
        independent performance audits, and periodic
        proficiency examinations.    	Many of the
        organizations participating in Bight'03 have well
        established monitoring programs.  QA activities
        for Bight'03 have focused on developing a common
        field manual and documenting the comparability of
        laboratory methods.  Training of field and
        laboratory personnel is focused on communicating
        goals and objectives of the survey, as well any
        modifications in methods or procedures that have
        been made to ensure data comparability.  The
        porpose of this training is to verify that all
        participants will be able to implement the agreed
        upon procedures in a consistent manner with
        comparable proficiency.  Quantitative measures of
        the overall effectiveness of training have been
        identified to translate QA activities such as
        communication and training into QC activities such
        as performance audits and proficiency
        examinations.  These quantitative measures are
        known as measurement quality objectives (MQOs).
        C.   Measurement Quality Objectives   	MQOs
        establish acceptable levels of uncertainty for
        each measurement process. MQOs typically address
        the major components of data quality:
        representativeness, completeness, precision,
        accuracy and comparability.  Data comparability,
        or "the confidence with which one data set can be
        compared to another" (Stanley and Verner 1985), is
        a primary concern in this project because of the
        large number of particpants.  Comparability of
        reporting units and calculations, data base
        management processes, and interpretative
        procedures must be ensured if the overall goals of
        the project are to be realized.  	Specific MQOs
        for precision and accuracy, the most readily
        quantifiable components of data quality, have been
        identified for Bight'03 to ensure that the data
        produced by the many field crews and laboratories
        involved in the project will be comparable.
        Accuracy is defined as the difference between the
        measured value of an indicator and its true or
        expected value, which represents an estimate of
        systematic error or net bias (Kirchner 1983, Hunt
        and Wilson 1986, Taylor 1987).  Precision is the
        degree of mutual agreement among individual
        measurements and represents an estimate of random
        error (Kirchner 1983, Hunt and Wilson 1986, Taylor
        1987).  Together, accuracy and precision provide
        an estimate of the total error or uncertainty
        associated with a measured value.  Requiring
        participating field crews and laboratories to
        achieve standard, quantitative MQOs for accuracy
        and precision will help to ensure that individual
        data sets are free of any crew  and/or laboratory
        specific bias and that the degree of random error
        is consistent across data sets.  Accuracy and
        precision goals for indicators to be measured
        during the Bight'03 are provided in Table 2 1.
        Accuracy and precision cannot be defined for all
        parameters because of the nature of the
        measurements.  For example, accuracy measurements
        are not possible for toxicity testing, sample
        collection activities, and fish pathology
        measurements.  Measurement of accuracy and
        precision in sediment toxicity testing would
        require the use of reference materials with a
        known level of toxicity that is stable during
        storage.  Suitable reference materials for
        sediment toxicity are not available.  TABLE

        __________________________________________________
        _________________________  	An MQO for
        completeness was also defined for Bight'03.
        Completeness is a measure of the proportion of the
        expected, valid data (i.e., data not associated
        with some criterion of potential unacceptability)
        that is actually collected during a measurement
        process.  The MQO for completeness is 90% for each
        measurement process.  The sampling design for the
        project is sufficiently redundant to absorb the
        loss of up to 10% of the samples without
        compromising the goals of the program, provided
        that the lost samples are not concentrated in a
        single subpopulation of interest.  Redundancy was
        incorporated at this level because monitoring
        programs of this size typically lose as many as
        10% of samples as a result of logistical
        difficulties or failure to achieve quality control
        criteria.    D.   Quality Assurance And Quality
        Control Activities 	 	Establishing MQOs is of
        little value if the proper quality assurance
        activities are not undertaken to ensure that such
        objectives will be met.  Quality assurance in the
        Bight'03 will be achieved by:  * Developing a
        common field manual,   * Documenting the
        comparability of laboratory methods that are
        consistent with the MQOs, and   * Implementing
        training workshops to ensure that participants are
        familiar with the methods and are able to achieve
        the MQOs.    The effectiveness of quality
        assurance efforts will be measured by quality
        control activities that fall into two categories:
        * Routine QC checks coordinated by each
        laboratory or field crew's internal QA Officer,
        and   * Performance audits conducted by the
        Bight'03 QA Officer or designee   	The goal of
        these activities is to quantify accuracy and
        precision, but, most importantly, they will be
        used to identify problems that need to be
        corrected as data sets are generated and
        assembled.    	A new Field Operations Manual
        (2003) has been prepared to standardize data
        collection efforts in the field.  Each
        participating organization collecting samples in
        the field has identified a single point of contact
        for field operations (referred to as the Lead
        Scientist in the field operations manual).    	A
        single laboratory manual was not developed for the
        project since each of the participating
        laboratories have their own internal operating
        procedures.  Comparability of laboratory efforts
        will be ensured through compliance with the
        requirements listed in this Quality Assurance Plan
        (QAP) which identifies performance based standards
        and the appropriate level of QA/QC.  Procedures
        for benthic analyses appropriate to the Bight'03
        Project are detailed in the Macrobenthic
        (Infaunal) Sample Analysis Laboratory Manual
        (2003)  	The manuals and the QA/QC requirements
        were prepared in coordination with the appropriate
        personnel from each of the participating
        organizations.  Potential problem areas identified
        in the preparation and review of these manuals
        were resolved using a consensus based approach.
        Copies of these manuals have been distributed to
        all participants in the program.  These manuals
        will form the basis for training workshops and
        provide a reference for field and laboratory
        personnel during sample collection and processing
        activities.    A.   Field Operations   	The
        Bight'03 survey will be conducted cooperatively by
        a number of organizations (including one or more
        contractors) which routinely monitor the marine
        environment according to their own protocol.  It
        is important to the success of the Bight'03 study
        that comparable data are collected by each
        organization.	  Quality Assurance activities for
        field collection include:   * The development of
        the field operations manual which details the
        procedures to be used in the Bight'03 survey,   *
        A series of presurvey methods and taxonomy
        protocol intercalibration meetings/exercises to
        ensure that project participants understand the
        requirements outlined in the field manual, and   *
        A presurvey audit of new participants, or
        participants who have experienced a significant
        turnover in personnel since Bight'98, to
        demonstrate understanding and capability.  Quality
        Control measures for the field collection effort
        include:  * Specific QC requirements outlined in
        the QAP, which will be the responsibility of the
        lead scientist of each vessel, and    * Field
        audits of each vessel during the sampling period.
        Field operations manual   	Standard field
        procedures are documented in the Bight'03 Field
        Operations Manual (2003).  The field manual
        includes detailed descriptions of collection
        procedures, criteria for acceptable samples, and
        conditions under which samples need to be
        recollected.  The field operations manual will
        provide the basis for protocol calibration
        exercises and a reference for field personnel
        during sampling activities.    	The field manual
        provides an overview of field teams and activities
        and procedures related safety, protocol
        calibration, navigation requirements, sampling
        schedule and station types, procedures for benthic
        sampling, procedures for trawl sampling,
        procedures for packaging and shipping of samples,
        contingency plans, and procedures for managing
        information collected in the field.    	Lead
        Scientists and Boat Captains will be instructed on
        the field procedures to be followed during the
        survey and they, in turn, will instruct their
        field personnel on the proper procedures for the
        survey.  The lead scientist of each organization
        is responsible for distributing the Bight'03 Field
        Operations Manual to all field personnel and
        ensuring that their staff understands and uses the
        protocols detailed in the manual.

      Methodology_Description:
        Section2  Training and protocol calibration
        Proper training of field personnel is a critical
        aspect of quality assurance.  Organizations
        participating in Bight'03 will provide personnel
        who have extensive field experience, but not
        necessarily with the standard methods selected for
        this project.  Instruction for this project,
        therefore, will focus on ensuring consistency in
        data collection among all field personnel.  	Lead
        scientists and boat captains of all organizations
        participating in the survey will be required to
        attend a protocol calibration meeting, which will
        be conducted several weeks before the survey.  The
        goals and objectives of the Bight'03 will be
        discussed at this meeting as well as the
        responsibilities of the chief scientist and boat
        captains during the Bight'03 survey.  Each
        participating organization will be provided with a
        Workplan, Field Operations Manual and QA/QC
        Document for Bight'03 and will be instructed on
        field procedures to be used during the survey,
        including proper entry of data on field data
        forms.  The meeting will emphasize decision-making
        procedures for determining whether a station
        should be abandoned and whether a sample is
        acceptable.  Lines of communication within the
        project and QA/QC activities occurring on the boat
        during the survey will also be discussed.  	The
        Lead Scientist of each organization will train
        their field personnel, as needed, on the field
        operations to be conducted during the survey.  It
        will be the responsibility of the Lead Scientist
        of each organization to review the Workplan and
        Field Operations Manual with their field crews and
        to ensure that they understand the field
        procedures and specific field QA/QC requirements
        that must be followed during the survey.  It is
        also the Lead Scientist's responsibility to train
        their field crews, as needed, on operations to be
        performed.  Personnel that cannot perform an
        operation as required by the project will not
        participate in that operation.    Field audits
        Field sampling capability will be established by
        means of field audits conducted by the Field QA
        Auditor prior to sampling for the Bight'03 study.
        These pre-survey field audits will be conducted to
        assess equipment, vessels, and protocols used by
        participating organizations, and to instruct the
        crew as needed on the procedures described in the
        field operation manual and the QA/QC document.
        The priority for conducting field audits prior to
        the sampling period will begin with organizations
        that did not participate in the Bight'98 Survey or
        who have a significant number of staff members
        that did not participate in the Bight'98 Survey.
        If resources and time are still available after
        all of these organizations have been audited, the
        organizations that participated in the Bight'03
        will be subject to a field audit to confirm the
        capabilities that existed and were documented for
        the Bight'03.  	A Field QA/QC Checklist, developed
        to provide comparability and consistency in this
        process, will be used to record the pre-cruise
        audit data.  The Field QA Specialist will provide
        additional instruction when discrepancies are
        noted during the presurvey field QA audit.  The
        Lead Scientist will also be notified of the audit
        results so that any problems can be corrected
        prior to sampling.  	Ongoing quality control
        during the sample period will be established
        through field audits.  Each vessel will be visited
        at least once during the survey.  In addition to
        the information contained on the QA/QC checklist.
        Each vessel will also be audited by a preassigned
        taxonomist, who will observe species
        identification in the field.  This data will be
        recorded on a Taxonomy QA/QC data sheet.  If there
        are errors in species identification, the
        taxonomist will inform the Lead Scientist of the
        cruise to take action to correct the problem.
        Field personnel will be instructed regarding the
        appropriate identifications.    Navigation   	The
        ability to accurately locate sampling sites is
        critical to the success of the survey.  At the
        very minimum, each vessel will be required to have
        the following instrumentation:  A Differential
        Global Positioning System (DGPS); a radar; and a
        fathometer.  A field computer for recording
        station and sampling information is recommended,
        but not required.  	The Boat Captains will be
        responsible for accurate occupation of the
        sampling sites and will assist as necessary in
        maintaining a record of all station occupation and
        sampling event information. The information
        required to be recorded for every station
        occupation and sampling event is described in the
        Bight'03 Field Operations Manual. The Cruise
        Leaders are required to assure that all
        field-collected data are complete and accurate and
        that station occupation and sampling event data
        are submitted in electronic form to the
        Information Management Officer on a weekly basis.
        These weekly submissions will be reviewed to track
        the overall sampling progress, identify strata
        that are at risk of being under-sampled due to
        unanticipated rates of station abandonment, and to
        verify that each field team is accurately and
        completely sampling each station.     MEASUREMENTS
        OF FISH AND INVERTEBRATE ASSEMBLAGES  AND FISH
        PATHOLOGY   A.   Overview  	This section presents
        Bight'03 QA/QC protocols and requirements for
        demersal fish and invertebrate assemblage
        analyses, from sample collection to final
        validation of the resultant data.  Sample
        collection methods are documented in the Bight'03
        Field Operations Manual (2003).  The field crews
        will generate data on species identification,
        enumeration, biomass, length measurements (fish
        only), and gross external pathology.  	Field crews
        will conduct a standard 10-min trawl at selected
        stations (5-min in bays, harbors, and marinas).
        The Bight'03 Field Operations Manual contains a
        list of trawl stations and their locations.  The
        contents of the net will be examined and fish and
        invertebrates will be identified to species,
        measured for length (fish only), counted, weighed,
        and examined for evidence of gross external
        pathologies.  Organisms suspected of having
        pathologies will be fixed in 10% buffered formalin
        and shipped to SCCWRP.  If appropriate, diseased
        specimens will be examined by a pathologist.  B.
        Field Operations  Trawling  	Field crews must
        adhere to prescribed sampling protocols because
        fish and invertebrate assemblage data (species
        identification, enumeration, biomass, and length)
        are significantly influenced by the collection
        methods.  Factors influencing the catch are gear
        type, net deployment, trawl duration, and tow
        speed.  All crews must have standard nets to
        ensure comparability of gear.  The importance of
        maintaining the trawl duration and speed should be
        stressed during the presurvey protocol calibration
        meeting.  During sampling, crews must record
        towing speed and trawl duration on the Trawl Cover
        Sheet.  The Lead Scientist will be responsible for
        reviewing all trawl data sheets and the Boat
        Captain's log daily for investigating and
        correcting any discrepancies.  	The Field QA/QC
        Auditor will monitor adherence to collection
    Methodology:

      Methodology_Description:
        Section 1 Laboratory Operations   	Several
        laboratories are participating in Bight'03.
        Quality assurance and quality control measures are
        necessary to ensure that the data generated by the
        participating laboratories are comparable.  This
        section addresses only general laboratory
        operations. The sections on each indicator (i.e.,
        chemistry, benthic analyses, and toxicity) present
        specific QA/QC requirements and procedures
        associated with the processing of specific
        samples. The quality assurance measures for
        Bight'03 include the following: o	The development
        of MQO's for laboratory generated data, o	The
        documentation of the participating laboratories
        general laboratory practices and internal QA/QC
        procedures o	Mandatory participation in meetings
        to calibrate laboratory protocols and training to
        ensure that Bight'03 procedures and QA/QC
        requirements are understood.  o	Apresurvey
        demonstration of laboratory capability Quality
        control measures for laboratories participating in

        demonstration of laboratory capability
        o	Development and implementation of QA/QC
        procedures for evaluating performance of
        laboratories relative to MQO's developed for the
        project 	MQOs for chemical analysis are provided
        in Chapter V of this document.  MQOs for benthic
        analysis are provided in Chapter VI of this
        document.  MQOs for toxicity are provided in
        Chapter VII of this document.    Documentation of
        general laboratory practices  	All laboratories
        providing analytical support for chemical or
        biological analyses must have the appropriate
        facilities to store and prepare samples, and
        appropriate instrumentation and staff to provide
        data of the required quality within the time
        period dictated by the project.  Laboratories are
        expected to conduct operations using good
        laboratory practices, including:  o	A program of
        scheduled maintenance of analytical balances,
        microscopes, laboratory equipment and
        instrumentation.   o	Routine checking of
        analytical balances using a set of standard
        reference weights (ASTM Class 3, NIST Class S 1,
        or equivalents).   o	Checking and recording the
        composition of fresh calibration standards against
        the previous lot.  Acceptable comparisons are 2%
        of the previous value.   o	Recording all
        analytical data in bound logbooks in ink.
        o	Daily monitoring and documenting the
        temperatures of cold storage areas and freezer
        units.   o	Verifying the efficiency of fume hoods.
        o	Having a source of reagent water meeting
        American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM)
        Type I specifications (ASTM 1984) available in
        sufficient quantity to support analytical
        operations.  The conductivity of the reagent water
        should not exceed 1 S/cm at 25C.   o	Labeling all
        containers used in the laboratory with date
        prepared, contents, and initials of the individual
        who prepared the contents.   o	Dating and storing
        all chemicals safely upon receipt.  Chemical are
        disposed of properly when the expiration date has
        expired.   o	Using a laboratory information
        management system to track the location and statsu
        of any sample received for analysis.
        Laboratories should be able to provide
        information documenting their ability to conduct
        the analyses with the required level of data
        quality.  Such information might include results
        from interlaboratory comparison studies, control
        charts and summary data of internal QA/QC checks,
        and results from certified reference material
        analyses.  Laboratories must also be able to
        provide analytical data and associated QA/QC
        information in a format and time frame specified
        by the Laboratory Coordinator or the Information
        Management Officer.   	In addition to the Bight'03
        QAP, the following documents and information must
        be current, and they must be available to all
        laboratory personnel participating in the project:
        o	Laboratory QA Plan: Clearly defined policies
        and protocols specific to a particular laboratory
        including personnel responsibilities, laboratory
        acceptance criteria for release of data, and
        procedures for determining the acceptability of
        results.   o	Laboratory Standard Operating
        Procedures (SOPs)   Detailed instructions for
        performing routine laboratory procedures.  In
        contrast to the Laboratory Methods Manual, SOPs
        offer step by step instructions describing exactly
        how the method is implemented in the laboratory,
        specific for the particular equipment or
        instruments on hand.   o	Instrument performance
        study information   Information on instrument
        baseline noise, calibration standard response,
        analytical precision and bias data, detection
        limits, etc.  This information usually is recorded
        in log books or laboratory notebooks.   o	Control
        charts   Control charts must be developed and
        maintained throughout the project for all
        appropriate analyses and measurements (see section
        4.2.5).   	Personnel in the laboratories should be
        well versed in good laboratory practices,
        including standard safety procedures.  It is the
        responsibility of the laboratory manager and/or
        supervisor to ensure that safety training is
        mandatory for all laboratory personnel.  The
        laboratory is responsible for maintaining a
        current safety manual in compliance with the
        Occupational Safety and Health Administration
        (OSHA), or equivalent state or local regulations.
        The safety manual should be readily available to
        laboratory personnel.  Proper procedures for safe
        storage, handling and disposal of chemicals should
        be followed at all times; each chemical should be
        treated as a potential health hazard and good
        laboratory practices should be implemented
        accordingly.   Protocol calibration and training
        Each participating laboratory has a
        representative to the Bight'03 Steering Committee.
        This individual serves as the point of contact
        for the QA Officer or his designee in identifying
        and resolving issues related to data quality.
        To ensure that the samples are analyzed in a
        consistent manner throughout the duration of the
        project, key laboratory personnel should
        participate in an orientation session conducted
        during an initial site visit or via communication
        with the QA Officer or his designee.  The purpose
        of the orientation session is to familiarize key
        laboratory personnel with the QA program
        requirements and procedures.   	Complete and
        detailed procedures for processing and analysis of
        samples in the field are provided in the Bight'03
        Field Operations Manual (2003).  Procedures for
        benthic analyses are provided in the Infaunal
        Sample Analysis Laboratory Procedure (SCCWRP,
        2003) which is attached as an appendix to this
        document.  Procedures for chemistry, and toxicity
        analysis are referenced in the appropriate
        chapters. Demonstration and documentation of
        performance 	Laboratories are required to
        demonstrate acceptable performance before analysis
        of samples can proceed, as described for each
        indicator in subsequent sections.  Initially, a QA
        assistance and performance audit will be performed
        by QA Officer or his designee to determine if each
        laboratory effort is in compliance with the
        procedures outlined in this document and to assist
        the laboratory where needed.   	Specific QA/QC
        procedures have been developed for Bight'03 to
        evaluate the quality of data being generated by
        the participating laboratories relative to the
        MQOs developed for this project.  It is the
        responsibility of each participating laboratory to
        ensure that all the Bight'03 QA/QC procedures
        outlined in the subsequent chapters are followed.
        Quality control of laboratory operations will
        be evaluated on a continuous basis through the use
        of internal and external performance evaluations.
        Technical systems audits by the QA Officer or his
        designee may be conducted may be conducted at any
        time during the project. In addition,
        participating laboratories are required to
        participate in interlaboratory comparison studies
        detailed in the indicator section of this document
        (Chemistry, Benthic Analyses, Toxicity).
        ANALYSIS OF CHEMICAL CONTAMINANTS  IN SEDIMENTS
        AND TISSUES  Overview  	 There are many aspects to
        assuring the quality of chemical measurements.
        This section presents Bight '03 QA/QC protocols
        and requirements covering a wide range of
        activities, from sample collection and laboratory
        analysis, to the final validation of the resultant
        data.  Guidance for much of this section is based
        on USEPA SW846 and protocols developed for the
        EMAP-E Virginian Province, as well as those
        developed over many years by the National Oceanic
        and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National
        Statsu and Trends (NS&T) Program.  The protocols
        described herein are applicable to low
        parts-per-billion analyses of both marine sediment
        and fish samples unless, otherwise noted.  The
        Bight '03 survey will measure a variety of organic
        and inorganic contaminants in marine sediment and
        whole fish samples (Table 5.1).  In addition, the
        Bight '03 survey requires that the participating
        analytical laboratories demonstrate comparability
        continuously through strict adherence to common
        QA/QC procedures, routine analysis of Certified
        Reference Materials (CRMs), and regular
        participation in interlaboratory comparison
        exercises (round-robin analyses).  The QA/QC
        program has adopted a "performance-based" approach
        to achieving quality assurance of low-level
        contaminants.  Laboratories are not required to
        use the same analytical methods for each type of
        analysis.  Instead, Teach laboratory is free to
        choose the best, or most feasible method available
        within the constraints of cost and equipment, and
        provided that the resulting data meets all of the
        specified QA/QC criteria for accuracy, precision
        and sensitivity..  	Each laboratory must
        demonstrate its capability to meet the stated
        measurements quality objectives (MQOs) for each of
        the target analytes, in each respective matrix.
        Initially, each laboratory should establish a
        method detection limit (MDL) for each target
        analyte following the MDL protocol cited in 40 CFR
        Part 136.  Laboratories must participate in any
        available on-going intercalibration exercises, and
        meet the performance criteria prior to analysis of
        the survey samples.    	The participating
        laboratories must  review their laboratory
        performance on a continuous basis and make
        corrections if QA/QC criteria are not met.  The
        comparability in performance among laboratories is
        continuously evaluated based on analysis of
        certified reference materials (CRMs), selected
        intercalibration samples, spiked samples, sample
        duplicates, and laboratory reagent blanks.
        Sample Collection, Preservation and HoldingTime
        Field personnel must strictly adhere to Bight '03
        protocols to insure the collection of
        representative, uncontaminated sediment and fish
        tissue chemistry samples.  These sample collection
        protocols are described in detail in the Field
        Operations Manual.  Briefly, the key aspects of
        quality control associated with chemistry sample
        collection are as follows:  o	Field personnel must
        be thoroughly trained in the proper use of sample
        collection gear, and must be able to distinguish
        acceptable versus unacceptable sediment grab
        samples or fish trawls in accordance with
        pre-established criteria. 	 o	Field personnel must
        be thoroughly trained to recognize and avoid
        potential sources of sample contamination (e.g.,
        engine exhaust, winch wires, deck surfaces, ice
        used for cooling). o	Samplers and utensils that
        come in direct contact with the sample should be
        made of non-contaminating materials (e.g., glass,
        high-quality stainless steel and/or Teflon) and
        should be thoroughly cleaned between sampling
        stations. o	Sample containers should be of the
        recommended type (Table 5.2) and must be free of
        contaminants (i.e., carefully pre-cleaned)
        o	Conditions for sample collection, preservation
        and holding times should be followed (Table 5.2).
      Methodology_Type: Lab 2
      Methodology_Description:
        Section 2 Laboratory Operations  Overview  	The
        Bight '03 survey will involve the distribution of
        sediment and tissue chemistry samples among
        several different laboratories.  Each
        participating laboratory will analyze samples
        using existing methodology and report results only
        for the constituents listed in Table 5.1. 	The
        QA/QC requirements presented in the following
        sections are intended to provide a common
        foundation for the protocols used by each
        laboratory.  The resultant QA/QC data will
        facilitate assessment of the comparability of
        results among the different laboratories and for
        the different analytical procedures.  It should be
        noted that the QA/QC requirements specified in
        this plan represent the minimum requirements for
        any given analytical method.  Additional
        method-specific requirements should always be
        followed, as long as the minimum requirements
        presented in this document have been met. 	The
        performance-based Bight '03 QA program for
        analytical chemistry laboratories is based on an
        initial demonstration of laboratory capability
        (e.g., performance evaluation) and an ongoing
        demonstration of capability.  Control limit
        criteria and recommended frequency of analysis for
        each QA/QC element or sample type required in the
        Bight '03Bight '03 program are summarized in
        Tables 5.3-5.6.  The following sections discuss
        general aspects of the QA/QC elements.   	Prior to
        the analysis of samples, each laboratory should
        calculate nominal MDLs for each analyte; establish
        an initial calibration curve for all analytes; and
        demonstrate acceptable performance on a known or
        blind accuracy-based material.  Following a
        successful first phase, the laboratory must
        demonstrate its continued capabilities by
        participating in an on-going series of
        interlaboratory comparison exercises; repeated
        analysis of certified reference materials (CRMs);
        laboratory control standards; and analysis of
        laboratory method blanks and spiked samples.
        These steps are detailed in the following
        sections. 	The results for the various QA/QC
        samples should be reviewed by laboratory personnel
        immediately following the analysis of each sample
        batch.  The results should then be used to
        determine when control limit criteria have not
        been met and corrective actions must be taken
        before any further sample analyses.         To
        accomplish the objectives of the Bight '03 study,
        three criteria must be met for any analytical
        methods used: * Sufficient sensitivity must be
        obtained to achieve the required data reporting
        objectives for any target analytes (Table 5.7).
        The confidence of these reporting requirements is
        estimated by assessing the analytical variation
        resulting from repeated analyses of spiked samples
        close to these levels (sensitivity criteria). *
        Performance of any laboratory must be consistent
        with that of the other laboratories.  Laboratories
        analyzing the Bight '03 samples must participate
        in the on-going intercalibration exercises.  The
        acceptable performance for any given laboratory is
        that the concentrations of any measurable
        constituents must be within three standard
        deviations of the average measured concentrations
        reported by all of the laboratories that analyzed
        for that constituent (precision criteria).
        Alternatively, the results must be within
        specified  limits agreed upon  by the
        intercalibration groups. * Analyses of certified
        reference materials must yield values within the
        specified range of the certified values (Tables
        5.3-5.6).  However, due to the inherent
        variability in analyses near the method detection
        limit, control limit criteria for relative
        accuracy will only apply to analytes having
        certified values that are >10 times the MDL
        established by the laboratory (accuracy criteria).
        The on-going intercalibration exercises are used
        to provide an initial check on the performance of
        the participating laboratories against these
        criteria.  Any laboratory that fails to meet these
        criteria should repeat analyses of the
        intercalibration samples before commencing
        analyses of actual Bight '03 survey samples.
        Continuous performance evaluation against these
        criteria can be achieved by analyses of sample
        duplicates, spiked blanks, matrix spikes,
        reporting level spikes, laboratory control
        standards, and certified reference materials.  The
        data quality requirements for the Bight '03 study
        are summarized in Tables 5.3-5.6.  Discussion of
        each component is detailed below. Initial
        calibration  	Equipment should be calibrated prior
        to the analysis of each sample batch, after each
        major equipment disruption, and whenever on-going
        continuing calibration checks do not meet
        recommended control limit criteria (Tables
        5.3-5.6).   	Organics.  Calibration range must be
        established for each constituent from a minimum of
        five analytical standards of increasing
        concentration.  The calibration range should be
        well characterized and must be established prior
        to the analysis of samples.  Only data that
        results from quantification within the
        demonstrated working calibration range may be
        reported by a laboratory without annotation (i.e.,
        quantification based on extrapolation outside the
        calibration range is not acceptable).  Samples
        with measured concentrations above  the
        calibration range should be diluted as
        appropriate, and reanalyzed.  For results below
        the lowest calibration point or reporting limit
        (RL), samples may be further concentrated, or the
        results must be "flagged" (annotated) as <RL.  The
        latter is acceptable only if: (1) sample
        extraction/concentration steps were sufficient to
        meet the target analyte RL goals of the study, or
        (2) matrix problems have required sample dilution.
        Trace metals.  ICP/AES and ICP/MS instruments are
        calibrated with a calibration blank and a minimum
        of one calibration standard.  The atomic
        absorption spectrometers including flame atomic
        absorption (FAA), graphite furnace (GFAA), hydride
        generation, and cold vapor are calibrated using a
        minimum of 1 blank and three calibration
        standards.  The linear coefficient of the
        calibration curve must be at least 0.995 to be
        acceptable. Initial documentation of method
        detection limits 	In the Bight '03 program, the
        MDL will be used to demonstrate the capability of
        a laboratory to reach the sensitivity required to
        measure a specific constituent and demonstrate
        acceptable precision.  The MDL represents a
        quantitative estimate of low-level response
        detected at the maximum sensitivity of a method.
        The Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR Part 136)
        gives the following rigorous definition: "The MDL
        is the minimum concentration of a substance that
        can be measured and reported with 99% confidence
        that the analyte concentration is greater than
        zero and is determined from analysis of a sample
        in a given matrix containing the analyte."  The
        calculated MDL is a function of method precision
        at low analyte concentrations.  Laboratories must
        submit documented MDLs for each analytical method
        (summarized in a spreadsheet) to the Chairperson
        of the Chemistry Technical Committee prior to
        analysis of field samples.  The MDLs should be
        determined in both fish tissue and sediment, using
        "clean" sample matrices in ordre to minimize the
        interference by other compounds in a sample  on
        the estimation of detection limits for the target
        analytes. 	Each laboratory is to follow the
        procedure specified in 40 CFR Part 136 (Federal
        Register, Oct. 28, 1984) to calculate nominal MDLs
        for each target analyte and each analytical method
        employed.  Briefly, at least seven replicates of
        each representative matrix should be spiked at a
        concentration between one and five times the
        estimated detection limit (except for certain
        trace metals; see below for details), or at RL as
        a default.  The amount of sample (i.e., mass of
        sediment or tissue) used in calculating the MDL
        should match, as closely as possible, the amount
        of sample typically used.  The mean and standard
        deviation of the replicates are used to compute
        the MDL by multiplying the standard deviation by
        the Student t value for the 99% confidence
        interval (for n=7, t=3.143). 	Trace metals.  The
        MDLs for aluminum, antimony, arsenic, barium,
        beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead,
        mercury, nickel, selenium, silver, and zinc could
        be determined on a certified reference material or
        be calculated from a spiked clean matrix.
        Reporting levels 	In the Bight '03 program, RLs
        are used to report concentrations of target
        analytes (Table 5.7).  The Bight '03 Chemistry
        Committee, has defined RLs as the lowest
        concentration of any specific calibration range.
        The RL is therefore the lowest quantitative value
        that can be justified and reported in terms of
        calibration reliability.  Values below the RL, but
        above the nominal MDL are reported when detected,
        but must be flagged or annotated using the
        footnote supplied for data reporting.
        Laboratories must demonstrate their capability to
        achieve the required RLs by matching the lowest
        level of calibration standards to the reporting
        level and meeting the control limit criteria for
        the initial calibration.  Table 5.7 shows the
        Bight '03 Reporting Levels. 	Trace Metals.  The
        maximum acceptable MDLs are set at one-fifth of
        the effects range low (ERL) NOAA sediment quality
        guideline, for those analytes for which an ERL has
        been developed.    For the purpose of this study,
        reporting levels (RLs) are used interchangeably
        with maximum acceptable MDLs.   In the case of
        analytes for which no ERL has been established,
        the RL will be set by the individual laboratories
        at the lowest reasonable level with consideration
        of the analyte, the matrix, and the analytical
        methods used.         The RL for the whole fish
        samples will be set at three standard deviations
        above the calculated MDL for each respective
        analyte, with the understanding that this value
        will vary somewhat among laboratories.  The reason
        for this are two-fold:  1) there are no fish
        concentration guidelines for metals similar to
        those established for sediments, and thus there is
        no basis for the establishment of an a priori
        target RL; and 2) the data from the fish metals
        analyses will be used primarily in the mass
        balance assessment component of the Bight '03
        survey, and thus there is an impetus to push RLs
        as low as reasonably possible to account for as
        much of the mass of each trace element as possible
        within the fish "compartment" of the Southern
        California Bight.   Although there are some
        guidelines established for fish and shellfish to
        protect humans and animals from risks due to
        consumption, these concentrations are in the
        parts-per-million range, and thus at least an
        ordre of magnitude above current analytical
        detection limits.    	Trace Organics.  The RLs for
        the polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs),
        chlorinated pesticides, and polychlorinated
        biphenyls (PCBs) in sediments are set based on the
        combination of the ERL values and historical data.
        Fish tissue RLs for the chlorinated hydrocarbon
        analytes are based on tissue residue guidelines
        for protection of wildlife, as recommended by
        Environment Canada.   Performance criteria at the
        RL 	The initial performance demonstration of
        precision near the RL can be derived from the MDL
        determination or separate analysis.  The standard
        deviation of at least seven replicates of clean
        matrix spiked at or near the RL should be < 0.35
        times the RL.  In ordre for test performance to be
        estimated for ongoing organics analyses, each
        sample batch should include at least one spike at
        or near the RL (see section 5.3.10).
      Methodology_Type: Lab 3
      Methodology_Description:
        Section 3 Calibration verification 	An initial
        calibration verification standard is analyzed at
        the beginning of each analysis following the
        calibration procedure to check the accuracy of the
        calibration.  For all three analytical techniques,
        one initial calibration verification standard is
        made from a source different from the source that
        is used for the calibration standards.  The
        initial calibration verification standard is near
        the mid-range of the calibration and must be
        within 10% of the true value when analyzed.
        ICP/AES and ICP/MS also require a second initial
        calibration check standard of a substantially
        different concentration than the first initial
        calibration check standard; the second initial
        calibration check standard must also be within
        10% of the true value when analyzed. 	For
        continuing trace metal measurements, the
        continuing calibration verification (CCV) verifies
        that the instrument stays in calibration
        throughout the analysis.  The CCV is prepared in
        the same acid matrix as the calibration standard.
        It is analyzed after every ten samples and at the
        end of the run.  The CCV can come from any source
        that is near the mid-range of the calibration and
        must be within the ranges specified in Table 5.3.
        For trace organics measurements using full scan
        GC/MS, instrument tuning needs to be performed by
        analyzing 50 ng of decafluorotriphenylphosphine
        (DFTPP) prior to use of the instrument.  The
        fragmentation profiles from this analysis have to
        be within the EPA-recommended criteria (see USEPA
        SW-846).  The initial instrument calibration
        performed to establish calibration ranges for
        specific analytes is checked through the analysis
        of calibration verification standards (i.e.,
        calibration standard solutions) prior to analysis
        of each batch of samples.  Calibration
        verification standard solutions used for the
        calibration checks should contain all the analytes
        of interest at concentrations at or near the
        mid-level of a multi-point calibration range. 	If
        the control limit for analysis of the calibration
        verification standard is not met (Tables 5.3-5.6),
        the analyst(s) should identify and eliminate the
        source(s) causing the failure and perform another
        calibration verification.  If problem persists,
        preventive maintenance or corrective actions must
        be performed.  A calibration verification standard
        is injected.  The results should be assessed using
        the calibration verification criteria (Tables
        5.3-5.6).  If the calibration verification
        criteria are not met, a new initial calibration
        must be performed.  No sample analysis should
        begin until a satisfactory calibration
        verification is achieved. Calibration blanks
        (trace metals) 	Laboratories need to analyze
        calibration blanks (pure matrix used to prepare
        calibration standard solutions) prior to analysis
        of samples to ensure that the instrument is free
        of contamination.  Concentrations of all target
        analytes obtained from analysis of the calibration
        blanks should be below MDLs. Method blanks 	Method
        blanks (also called procedural blanks) are used to
        assess laboratory contamination during all stages
        of sample preparation and analysis.  For both
        organic and inorganic analyses, one laboratory
        reagent blank should be run in every sample batch.
        The method blank should be processed through the
        entire analytical procedure in a manner identical
        to the samples.  Control limits for blanks (Tables
        5.3-5.6) are based on the laboratory's maximum
        acceptable method detection limits (trace metals)
        or reporting levels (trace organics and TOC) as
        documented prior to the analysis of samples.  For
        trace metals, the level of any analyte in the
        method blank must be below MDL or less than 5% of
        the level of the analyte in the samples.  A
        reagent blank concentration equal to or greater
        than three times the MDL for one or more of the
        analytes of interest requires definitive
        corrective action to identify and eliminate the
        source(s) of contamination before proceeding with
        sample analysis.  For trace organics, if the
        method blank contains any analyte with a measured
        concentration greater than RL, all samples for
        that batch should be re-analyzed if the analyte is
        detected in samples.  Concentrations lower than RL
        should be reported, but not used to correct
        concentrations in the field samples. Sample
        duplicates 	Analysis of sample duplicates is used
        to assess the precision of an analytical method in
        quantifying target analytes and not required for
        all methods.  The relative percent difference
        (RPD) between the sample and sample duplicate
        results is calculated as follows: 				RPD  =
        (C1 - C2) _  x 100 				    	     (C1 + C2)/2
        Where: 	C1 = the larger of the duplicate
        results for a given analyte, and 					C2 = the
        smaller of the duplicate results for a given
        analyte. 	The data from this process are typically
        used to establish a statistical range with which
        the precision of subsequent analyses can be
        assessed. Matrix spikes and matrix spike
        duplicates 	A laboratory spiked sample matrix
        (commonly called a matrix spike or MS) and a
        laboratory spiked sample matrix duplicate
        (commonly called a matrix spike duplicate or MSD)
        will be used both to evaluate the effect of the
        sample matrix on the recovery of the compound(s)
        of interest and to provide an estimate of
        analytical precision.  A minimum of one MS should
        be analyzed for 10% of samples.  The matrix spike
        solution should contain all the analytes of
        interest.  The final spiked concentration of each
        analyte in the sample should be between 10 and 100
        times the MDL for that analyte, as previously
        calculated by the laboratory.  If the unspiked
        sample contains more than this amount,  the sample
        should be spiked with one to five times the
        preexisting concentration in the sample. 	Recovery
        data for the fortified compounds ultimately are
        intended to provide a basis for determining the
        prevalence of matrix effects in the samples
        analyzed during the project.  However, these data
        may not reflect the true magnitude of matrix
        interference with the analyses since recently
        spiked analytes often do not permeate the sample
        matrix to the same extent as in field contaminated
        sediments.  This is particularly true for
        measurements of trace organics in complex
        matrices.  Therefore, it is recommended that
        recovery data from analyses of MS and MSD samples
        be  used only as an evaluation tool for methods
        measuring trace organics.   	For trace metals, the
        spike control limits are presented in Table 5.3.
        for all elements other than iron and aluminum due
        to their high concentrations.  If the percent
        recovery for any analyte in the MS or MSD is lower
        than the control limits, the raw data quantitation
        reports should be reviewed.  If the reason for a
        low percent recovery value is not discovered, the
        instrument response may be checked using a
        calibration standard.  Low matrix spike recoveries
        may be a result of matrix interference and further
        instrument response checks may not be warranted,
        especially if the low recovery occurs in both the
        MS and MSD, and the other QC samples in the batch
        indicate that the analysis was "in control".  An
        explanation for low percent recovery values for
        MS/MSD results should be given in the cover letter
        accompanying the data package.  Corrective actions
        taken and verification of acceptable instrument
        response must be included. 	Analysis of the MS/MSD
        also is useful for assessing laboratory precision.
        The RPD between the MS and MSD results should be
        within the control limits (Tables 5.3-5.6 and 5.9)
        for at least one result per batch.  If results for
        any analytes do not meet the control limit
        criteria, calculations and instruments should be
        checked.  A repeat analysis may be required to
        confirm the results. Reporting level spikes
        (organics) 	Since a large number of samples are
        expected to contain organic analytes with
        concentrations near RLs, it is important to
        estimate the confidence of the measurements near
        these levels.  For each batch of samples analyzed,
        a relatively clean matrix (clean sand or Orange
        Roughy) is spiked with a standard solution
        containing all analytes of interest at levels
        approximately 20% above RLs.  This sample is
        processed and analyzed along with other field
        samples.  Recovery data from all participating
        laboratories will be gathered and analyzed to
        yield a confidence range for each method measuring
        low-level target analytes. Certified reference
        materials 	Certified reference materials (CRMs)
        generally are the most useful QC samples for
        assessing the accuracy of a given analysis (i.e.,
        closeness of a measurement to the "true" value).
        CRMs can be used to assess accuracy because they
        have "certified" concentrations of the analytes of
        interest, as determined through replicate analyses
        by a reputable certifying organization using two
        independent measurement techniques for
        verification.  In addition, the certifying
        organization may provide "non-certified" or
        "informational" values for other analytes of
        interest.  Such values are determined using a
        single measurement technique, which may introduce
        unrecognized bias.  Therefore, non-certified
        values must be used with caution in evaluating the
        performance of a laboratory using a method which
        differs from the one used by the certifying
        organization.  A list of reference materials used
        for the Bight '03 study is presented in Table 5.8.
        As an alternative, a laboratory control material
        (LCM) may be used in addition to, or as a
        replacement for a CRM.  A LCM is similar to a CRM
        in that it is a homogeneous matrix that closely
        matches the samples being analyzed.  For the Bight
        '03 study, two sediment materials from the Palos
        Verdes Shelf were used as LCMs in addition to
        CRMs.  Although concentrations of the analytes of
        interest in these materials are not certified,
        they can be used to assess the precision (i.e.,
        consistency) of a single laboratory, as well as to
        determine the degree of comparability among
        different laboratories.  In practice, LCMs may be
        preferred for routine (i.e., day to day) analysis
        because CRMs are relatively expensive.  Moreover,
        as-collected (i.e., wet) LCMs from the study area
        are more representative of the types of samples
        that will be delivered to the laboratories during
        the actual study.   However, CRMs still must be
        analyzed at regular intervals (e.g., monthly or
        quarterly) to provide a check on accuracy.
        Routine analysis of CRMs and LCMs is a vital
        aspect of the "performance-based" Bight '03 QA
        philosophy.  At least one CRM or LCM must be
        analyzed along with each batch of samples (Tables
        5.3-5.6 and 5.9).  For CRMs, both the certified
        and non-certified concentrations of the target
        analytes should be known to the analyst(s) and
        should be used to provide an immediate check on
        performance before proceeding with a subsequent
        sample batch.  Performance criteria for both
        precision and accuracy have been established for
        analysis of CRMs or LCMs (Tables 5.3-5.6 and 5.9).
        If the laboratory fails to meet either the
        precision or accuracy control limit criteria for a
        given analysis of the CRM or LCM, the data for the
        entire batch of samples is suspect.  Calculations
        and instruments should be checked; the CRM or LCM
        may have to be reanalyzed (i.e., re-injected) to
        confirm the results.  If the values are still
        outside the control limits in the repeat analysis,
        the laboratory is required to find and eliminate
        the source(s) of the problem and repeat the
        analysis of that batch of samples until control
        limits are met, before continuing with further
        sample processing.  The results of the CRM or LCM
        analysis should never be used by the laboratory to
        "correct" the data for a given sample batch.
        Surrogate standards 	Recovery surrogates are
        compounds chosen to simulate the analytes of
        interest in organic analyses.  The recovery
        surrogate represents a reference analyte against
        which the signal from the analytes of interest is
        compared directly for the purpose of
        quantification.  Recovery surrogates must be added
        to each sample, including QA/QC samples, prior to
        extraction.  The reported concentration of each
        analyte should NOT be adjusted to correct for the
        recovery of the surrogate standards.  The
        surrogate recovery data therefore should be
        carefully monitored; each laboratory must report
        the percent recovery of the surrogate(s) along
        with the target analyte data for each sample.  If
        possible, isotopically labeled analogs of the
        analytes should be used as recovery surrogates for
        GC/MS analyses. 	Control limit criteria for
        surrogate recoveries are provided in Tables 5.4
        -5.5.  Each laboratory should set its own control
        limit criteria based on the experience and best
        professional judgment of the analyst(s).  It is
        the responsibility of the analyst(s) to
        demonstrate that the analytical process is always
        "in control" (i.e., highly variable surrogate
        recoveries are not acceptable for repeat analyses
        of the same certified reference material and for
        the matrix spike/matrix spike duplicate). Internal
        standards (organics) 	Internal standards are added
        to each sample extract just prior to instrumental
        analysis to enable optimal quantification,
        particularly of complex extracts subject to matrix
        effects or retention time shifts relative to the
        analysis of standards.  Internal standards are
        essential if the actual recovery of the surrogates
        added prior to extraction is to be calculated.
        The internal standards also can be used to detect
        and correct for problems in the instrument.  The
        elements or compounds used as internal standards
        must be different from those already used as
        recovery surrogates.  The analyst(s) should
        monitor internal standard retention times and
        recoveries to determine if instrument maintenance
        or repair, or changes in analytical procedures,
        are indicated.  Corrective action should be
        initiated based on the experience of the
        analyst(s) and not solely because warning or
        control limits are exceeded.  Instrument problems
        that may have affected the data or resulted in the
        reanalysis of the sample should be documented
        properly in logbooks and internal data reports and
        used by the laboratory personnel to take
        appropriate corrective action. Whole fish sample
        processing 	Whole fish samples will be processed
        as in the Bight'98 survey, by homogenization in a
        blender with an equal mass of ultra-pure water
        (~18 megaohom and organic free).  In the Bight'03
        survey, fish samples will be analyzed for trace
        metal constituents as well as for orgaincs, and
        thus every effort should be made to avoid both
        contamination by both organic and inorganic
        species.  Therefore samples must be processed in a
        glass blender cup, prefereably fitted with
        titanium or tantalum blades.   If titanium or
        tantalum blades cannot be obtained, then stainless
        steel blades may be used, acknowledging that this
        may introduce trace amounts of chromium and nickel
        contamination.  The metals data from samples
        processed using stainless steel blades must be
        flagged with the appropriate caveats. Data
        evaluation procedures 	It is the responsibility of
        the Project Manager or his designee to acknowledge
        initial receipt of the data package(s), verify
        that the four data evaluation steps (see below)
        are completed.   The analytical laboratory must be
        notified of any additional information or
        corrective actions deemed necessary after the data
        evaluation. Following satisfactory resolution of
        all "corrective action" issues, the final action
        is to notify the laboratory in writing that the
        submitted results have been officially accepted as
        complete.  It may be necessary or desirable for a
        team of individuals (e.g., the QA Coordinator, Lab
        Coordinator and/or staff analytical chemists) to
        assist the Project Manager in technical evaluation
        of the submitted data packages.  While the Project
        Manager has ultimate responsibility for
        maintaining official contact with the analytical
        laboratory and verifying that the data evaluation
        process is completed, it is the responsibility of
        the QA Coordinator to closely monitor and formally
        document each step in the process as it is
        completed.  This documentation should be in the
        form of a data evaluation tracking form or
        checklist that is filled in as each step is
        completed.  This checklist should be supplemented
        with detailed memos to the project file outlining
        any concerns with data omissions, analysis
        problems, or descriptions of questionable data
        identified by the laboratory.   	Evaluation of the
        data package should begin as soon as possible
        following its receipt, since delays increase the
        chance that information may be misplaced or
        forgotten. In addition, if holding times have been
        exceeded,  options for reanalysis may be limited.
        The following steps are to be followed and
        documented in evaluating Bight '03 chemistry data:
        * Checking data completeness (verification)  *
        Assessing data quality (validation)  * Assigning
        data qualifier codes  * Taking final actions
        Checking data completeness  The first part of data
        evaluation is to verify that all required
        information has been provided in the data package.
        For the Bight'03 survey, this should include the
        following steps:  * Project personnel should
        verify that the package contains the narrative
        explanations signed by the laboratory manager,
        hard copies of all results (including QA/QC
        results), and accompanying computer diskettes.   *
        The electronic data file(s) should be parsed and
        entered into the Bight '03 chemistry database to
        verify that the correct format has been supplied.
        * Once the data have been entered into the
        appropriate Bight'03 database, automated checks
        should be performed to verify that results have
        been reported for all expected samples and all
        analytes.         The Project Manager should
        contact the laboratory and request any missing
        information as soon as possible after receipt of
        the data package.  If information was omitted
        because required analyses were not completed, the
        laboratory should provide and implement a plan to
        correct the deficiency.  This plan may include
        submittal of a revised data package and possible
        reanalysis of samples.
      Methodology_Type: Lab 4
      Methodology_Description:
        Section 4 Assessing data quality 	Data validation,
        or the process of assessing data quality, can
        begin after Bight'03 personnel have determined
        that the data package is complete.  Normally, the
        first major part of validation involves checking
        100% of the data for any possible errors resulting
        from transcription of tabulated results,
        misidentification or miscalculations.  However,
        Bight'03 laboratories are expected to submit data
        that has been tabulated and checked thoroughly for
        accuracy; the raw data reports needed to perform
        these checks (e.g., chromatograms, original
        quantitation reports) are not submitted as part of
        the data package.  The laboratory is required to
        maintain this raw data in an orderly manner and to
        have these records available for review by
        Bight'03 personnel upon request.  The first step
        validation checks performed by Bight'03 personnel
        will be limited to the following:  1) A check to
        verify that all reporting units and numbers of
        significant figures are correct;  2) A check to
        verify that all of the laboratory's calculated
        percent recovery values (for calibration check
        samples, Laboratory Control Materials, and matrix
        spikes) and relative percent difference values
        (for duplicates) are correct;  3) A check to
        verify that the reported concentrations for each
        analyte fall within "environmentally realistic"
        ranges, determined from previous studies and
        expert judgment.  In addition, past studies
        indicate that the different compounds in each
        classs of chemicals being measured on Bight'03
        (e.g., PAHs, PCBs, DDTs and other chlorinated
        pesticides) typically occur in the environment in
        more or less fixed ratios to one another.  For
        example, the DDT breakdown products p,p DDD and
        p,p DDE typically occur at higher concentrations
        than p,p DDT in marine sediments in off Southern
        California.  If anomalous departures from expected
        relative concentrations are found, it may indicate
        a problem in the measurement or data reduction,
        which in turn warrants further investigation.
        The second major aspect of data validation is to
        compare the QA/QC data against established
        criteria for acceptable performance (specified
        earlier in this plan).  This will involve the
        following steps:  1) Results for QA/QC samples
        should be tabulated, summarized and evaluated.  A
        set of summary tables should be prepared from the
        database showing the percent recovery values and
        relative percent difference values (where
        applicable) for the CRMs, LCMs and matrix
        spike/matrix spike duplicate samples.  The tables
        should indicate the percent recovery values for
        each individual batch of samples, as well as the
        average, standard deviation, coefficient of
        variation, and range for all batches combined.
        2) Similar summary tables should be prepared for
        the laboratory reagent blank QA/QC samples. 3) The
        summary results, particularly those for the CRMs
        and/or LCMs should be evaluated by comparing them
        against the QA/QC warning and control limit
        criteria for accuracy, precision, and blank
        contamination specified in Table 5.3.   4) Method
        detection limits reported by the laboratory for
        each analyte should be tabulated.   There are
        several possible courses of action to be taken if
        the reported data are deficient (i.e., warning
        and/or control limits exceeded) during the
        assessment of data quality.  The laboratory's
        cover letter (narrative explanation) should be
        consulted to determine if the problems were
        satisfactorily addressed.  If only warning limits
        were exceeded, then it is appropriate for the
        laboratory to report the results.  Violation of
        control limits, however, will result in one of the
        following courses of  action.  Either all
        associated results will be qualified in the
        database as estimated values (explained in the
        following section), or the data will be rejected
        and deleted from the database because the analysis
        was judged to be out of control (based on the
        professional judgment of the reviewer).
        Assigning data qualifier codes        Data
        qualifier codes are notations used by laboratories
        and data reviewers to briefly describe, or
        qualify, data and the systems producing data.
        Bight '03 data reviewers will assign data
        qualifier codes in situations where there are
        violations of control limit criteria.  The most
        typical situation is when a laboratory fails to
        meet the accuracy control limit criteria for a
        particular analyte in a CRM or matrix spike
        sample.  In these situations, the QA reviewer
        should verify that the laboratory did meet the
        control limit criteria for precision.  If the lack
        of accuracy is found to be consistent (i.e.,
        control limit criteria for precision were met),
        then it is likely that the laboratory experienced
        a true bias for that particular analyte.  In these
        situations, all reported values for that
        particular analyte will be qualified with a code
        that has the following meaning: "The reported
        concentration is considered an estimate because
        control limits for this analyte were exceeded in
        one or more quality control samples."
        Because some degree of expert judgment and
        subjectivity typically is necessary to evaluate
        chemistry QA/QC results and assign data qualifier
        codes, data validation will be conducted only by
        qualified personnel.  It is the philosophy of the
        Bight '03  that data which are qualified as
        estimates because of minor violation of a control
        limit in a QA/QC sample are still usable for most
        assessment and reporting purposes.  However, it is
        important to note that all QA/QC data will be
        readily available in the database along with the
        results data, so that interested data users can
        make their own estimation of data quality.
        Taking final action        Upon completion of the
        above steps, a report summarizing the QA review of
        the data package should be prepared, samples
        should be properly stored or disposed of, and
        laboratory data and accompanying explanatory
        narratives should be archived both in a storage
        file and in the database.  Technical
        interpretation of the data begins after the QA
        review has been completed.         Reports
        documenting the results of the QA review of a data
        package should summarize all conclusions
        concerning data acceptability and should note
        significant quality assurance problems that were
        found. These reports are useful in providing data
        users with a written record on data concerns and a
        documented rationale for why certain data were
        accepted as estimates or were rejected.  The
        following items should be addressed in the QA
        report:  1) Summary of overall data quality,
        including a dscription of data that were
        qualified.   2) Brief dscriptions of analytical
        methods and the method(s) used to determine
        detection limits. 3) Dscription of data
        reporting, including any corrections made for
        transcription or other reporting errors, and
        dscription of data completeness relative to
        objectives stated in the QA Project Plan.   4)
        Dscriptions of initial and ongoing calibration
        results, blank contamination, and precision and
        bias relative to QA plan objectives (including
        tabulated summary results for CRMs, LCMs and
        matrix spike/matrix spike duplicates).         The
        chemistry QA results will be presented in the
        appropriate Bight '03  technical reports,and will
        also become a permanent part of the database
        documentation (i.e., meta data).  The QA/QC data
        collected by the Bight '03 will be used not only
        to assess the accuracy and precision of individual
        laboratory measurements, but ultimately to assess
        the comparability of data generated by multiple
        laboratories.   Summary Of QA/QC Requirements For
        Analysis Of Chemical  Contaminants In Sediments
        And Whole Fish       The Bight '03 QA/QC
        requirements for chemical analysis are
        performance-based.  Key quality assurance (QA)
        measures include: * MQOs for accuracy, precision
        and completeness (Table 2.1) * Specifications for
        sample collection and holding times (Table 5.2)  *
        Control limit criteria and recommended frequency
        of analyses for each QA/QC sample type required in
        Bight '03 (Table 5.3-5.7) * Target reporting
        levels for each analyte (Table 5.7). * Pre-survey
        demonstration and documentation of performance by
        all participating laboratories that they can meet
        the detection level and precision objectives for
        each of the target analytes. * Requirement of
        participation in pre-survey interlaboratory
        calibration exercise to assess comparability of
        results with other participating laboratories. *
        Requirement of pre-survey analysis of certified
        reference materials to assess the Bight '03
        accuracy criteria. The required quality control
        (QC) measure for the Bight '03 chemical analyses
        is: * Evaluation of the results from QA/QC samples
        by each laboratory after completion of each
