4.4 Data Evaluation<br />

The individuals associated with this task consist of end users of the data, including risk assessment<br />

specialists, report preparers, and Project Scientists and Engineers.<br />

Data may be used for the following purposes:<br />

Identification of potential contamination<br />

Confirmation of contamination<br />

Characterization of contamination<br />

Determination of environmental and human health risks<br />

Monitoring of response/removal actions (corrective actions)<br />

Evaluation of remedial alternatives<br />

Monitoring compliance with regulations<br />

4.4.1 Data Presentation<br />

Based on the end use, data may be assessed/analyzed and presented in one of the three basic approaches:<br />

Tabular Displays<br />

Graphic Displays<br />

Statistical Analysis<br />

Tabular summarization will be used to present the results of all data collection efforts. These tables will<br />

be generated from the project database. Table 4-1 is an example of a proposed format for either soil or<br />

groundwater results. Graphical and statistical analyses will be used to further determine the presence or<br />

absence of potential contaminants at each site.<br />

Graphical methods are particularly useful for comparing detectable concentrations and detection limits to<br />

federal or state regulatory limits by pictorially presenting analytical data. The following types of graphs<br />

may be utilized:<br />

Scatter plots<br />

Vertical bar charts<br />

Contour plots<br />
