QAPP Amendment Amendment Number 1 Revision Date 5 5 2010 Page 17 of 18 explained in the final report as well as any changes made to the variables Calibration will continue until observed values vs predicted values are within 10 of each other As the modeling approach presented in this QAPP is relying upon a simplistic model intended for planning purposes the importance is to establish a relationship between loadings and in pond concentrations on which to base decisions This is a reliable method for comparing various areas e g subwatersheds and land uses to one another as well as various sources to one another and also for determining the percent reduction necessary to achieve a water quality goal regardless of whether the mass load is 100 accurate Thus the level of uncertainty in the exact loading value has little impact on how it is ultimately used however uncertainty will be evaluated as a function of the level of adjustment needed to calibrate the model This simplified approach uses average data values which will first be reviewed and examined to identify any outliers Documentation of model uncertainty will be outlined in a narrative form in the draft and final report Data will be reviewed by the Modeling Coordinator and QA QC Officer as well as the MA DEP 604 b Project Officer and QA Officer to determine if they meet the QAPP objectives and verify accuracy Step 4 Buildout Analysis A buildout scenario will be prepared by
