### Data Review

Each laboratory providing support to an incident should follow their existing procedures for QA data review. The overall data generation and reporting process for the incident may include the following:

1. Data generation
2. Data reduction
3. Raw data package generation
4. Analyst review
5. Peer review
6. Final data package generation
7. QA review
8. Sign off by laboratory manager
9. Data release

Sometimes during a response, laboratories may be asked to provide data that has not undergone adequate internal verification. These data should be reported as "Preliminary Data Pending Confirmation." Any results based on these data should be accompanied by documentation of the level of QA/QC.
