The purpose of the demonstration was to collect reliable performance and cost data for the RA915+/91C and four other field measurement devices for mercury in soil and sediment. The key objectives of the demonstration were:
1) determine sensitivity of each instrument with respect to a vendor-generated method detection limit (MDL) and practical quantitation limit (PQL); 2) determine analytical accuracy associated with vendor field measurements using field samples and standard reference materials (SRMs); 3) evaluate the precision of vendor field measurements; 4) m easure time
required to perform mercury measurements; and 5) estim ate costs associated with mercury measurements for capital,labor, supplies, and investigation-derived wastes.
