Data and associated records from analysis of samples and from support activities in the EQL for this project are identified in Table 22. All laboratory paper records are stored in file cabinets within the secure laboratory facility for a period of one to three years. After that period the records are placed in labeled boxes and transferred to a locked room in a nearby university storage room. Electronic data are stored in the laboratory's desktop computers and on a restricted access (i.e., access restricted to Laboratory Director, Laboratory Master Technician, and Laboratory Technicians) intra-university network. Backup copies of electronic media are prepared at least annually and stored in a secure area off-site. Disposition of Records Records are stored for a nominal period of at least ten years. Records are stored for longer periods if requested or required by the customer or regulatory authority. Requests for Records Access to recent (i.e., within the previous year) laboratory records is restricted to laboratory personnel. Access to archived laboratory records is restricted to the Laboratory Director, Laboratory Master Technician, and Laboratory Technicians. All requests for laboratory records should be directed to one of those individuals. Original documents shall not be taken from the file storage area without permission from one of the listed individuals, and copying and distribution of such documents must also have their authorization.
