NOAA Performance Based
Methods
We employ methods utilized by NOAA's NS&T
(National Status and Trends) Mussel Watch Program and
the USEPA's EMAP (Environmental
Monitoring and Assessment) Program. These are also the
methods used by the National
Institute for Standards and Testing (NIST) Annual Intercalibration
Exercises and the U.S. Fish
& Wildlife Service (USFWS) ongoing monitoring program.
As such, this set of analytically rigorous methods is often
called the NS&T-EMAP-NIST-USFWS performance-based method
set for baseline monitoring.
Our staff is
skilled in trace contaminant analyses and interpretation of
environmental data as evidenced by the team's extensive
experience in several trace contaminant-monitoring programs
for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS), NOAA (NS&T
Program), USEPA, the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the
Minerals Management Service (MMS). We have established a reputation
of excellent quality, timely performance and data submission
as well as competitive pricing. Over the last six-years, we
have developed and demonstrated considerable project experience
relative to our ability to provide high quality trace organic
analysis particularly related to tissue residues, using the
methods presented here.

methods, please contact Dr. Susanne McDonald (suemcdonald@tdi-bi.com)
