MP-600s

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​It is important to perform all procedures associated with sampling, testing, reporting, and inspection appropriately in order to maintain a reliable quality assurance system. This is accomplished by use of Division approved Material Procedures (MP’s). The following is a list of MP’s currently used by WVDOH.

This page is organized by MP Number
