    Accomplishments

    ANAB’s Assessment of our BAC program was completed in November.  ANAB Auditors approved our BAC SOPs and GC-FID and GC-FID-MS instrumentation.   An external BAC proficiency test was taken and passed by Teree Warren.  Four additional analysts completed and passed an internal BAC proficiency test.  Two additional analysts still need to take an internal BAC proficiency test.  ANAB anticipates making a decision regarding adding BAC Analysis to our Scope Accreditation by the November 29, 2019.  This means that we should be conducting BAC Analysis by December 2019.                                                                                            NEEDS ASSESSEMENT:                                                                                                                         One Microdiluter was requested for BAC analysis, and was rated as a HIGH priority by the Budget Committee, but no funding was allocated.  We are still waiting on funding for a LCMS instrument and Nitrogen generator for THC quantification.
