The IDQTF Munitions Response Subgroup has developed the Munitions Response Quality Assurance Project Plan (MR-QAPP) Toolkit to assist project teams in planning for the characterization and remediation of munitions and explosives of concern (MEC) using geophysical methods at Department of Defense (DoD) installations and formerly used defense sites (FUDS) (collectively referred to as Munitions Response Sites (MRS)). The MR-QAPP Toolkit is based on requirements and guidance contained in the Uniform Federal Policy for Quality Assurance Project Plans (UFP-QAPP, IDQTF, 2005) and makes use of applicable worksheets contained in the Optimized UFP-QAPP Worksheets (IDQTF, 2012), which have been adapted for this purpose.
This Toolkit employs the systematic planning process (SPP) to illustrate scientifically sound approaches to characterizing and remediating MEC at MRS in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) as amended. It does not address the characterization or remediation of munitions constituents (MC) or chemical warfare materiel (CWM). A separate systematic planning process must be used, and separate data quality objectives (DQOs) documented, for projects involving the characterization and remediation of MC or CWM. In addition, all worksheets pertaining to chemical sampling and analysis contained in the 2012 Optimized UFP-QAPP worksheets must be completed.
