Field FAQs

  • Q - When will I have to use the new SOPs?
    A -
    You will need to begin following the new SOPs on June 8, 2004, unless you are exempted (see “General Questions”).

  • Q - Do I need to submit something to DEP to show that I am using the SOPs?
    A -
    No.  DEP’s expectation is that you will use these SOPs unless you have applied for a new or alternative field method.

  • Q - Besides following the SOPs, are there other requirements that I need to meet?
    A -
    You will need to develop a quality manual (see FA 3300 of FA 1000) for your organization.  This document must be completed by October 9, 2002 but does not need to be submitted to DEP.
