ADaPT

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Solid Waste and Hazardous Waste programs are now requiring the submittal of ADaPT Electronic Data Deliverables (EDD). Newly issued and modified Solid and Hazardous Waste permits and consent orders require submittal of groundwater monitoring data in the ADaPT EDD format. The following links to software, guidance documents, table updates, and related information will be helpful in this implementation.

The ADaPT Software requires Microsoft Office Access version 2002 (XP), 2003 or 2007 and the latest version, last updated 10/03/2011, is freely available for download. Please refer to the "How to update ADaPT" section in either the ADaPT FAQ or the ADaPT User Guide for alternate procedures and details on how to update ADaPT.

The ADaPT training video provides a brief introduction of EDD processing. For more detailed information view the ADaPT Users Guide or the ADaPT FAQ.

The ADaPT User Guide contains information on how to install ADaPT, import data, check the data for completeness (and error check), evaluate data QC, evaluate the data against various standards and criteria and prepare the data for export to upload to the WACS (Water Assurance and Compliance Systems) database. The ADaPT Users Guide also includes reference information along with responsibilities and uses of ADaPT by labs, consultants, permittees, and DEP staff.

ADaPT FAQ for the Bureau of Solid and Hazardous Waste

The ADaPT Field EDD Utility is provided as a tool to help create corresponding ADaPT Field EDDs for ADaPT Lab EDDs submitted to the SW, HW, and UIC programs when importing into the WACS Oracle database. This tool can help you create new Field EDDs, retrieve required information from imported Lab EDDs, or modify existing Field EDDs. After the Field EDD is created, you can perform a data integrity check and export the properly named Field EDD. Context sensitive help screens are available to guide the user through the process.

The Field EDD Worksheet.xls is provided as a tool that can be used for manually creating field EDDs and contains drop down menus and mouse-over messages helpful in populating each data field. Please refer to the instructions on how to produce a field EDD using this spreadsheet.
