MINIMUM VERIFICATf'ON LABORATORY ANALYSIS
<br />All analysis methods are the designated EPA methods described in EPA SW 846, Third Edition. Those methods not found in SW 846 :trc
<br />specifically noted below. Refer to the "SWRCB LUFT Field Manual", Appendix D (B), Table 3-5 on page A20 for minimum detection
<br />limits for motor vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel). Refer to "Tri -Regional Board Staff Recommendations for Initial Evaluation and
<br />€nvestigalion of UST's" for the waste and motor oil minimum detection limits. Detection Limits that remain below the MCL, STLC or
<br />.allowable Limit of the contaminant in question will be accepted, however laboratory shall utilize the most conservative method.
<br />LABOI;UTORY ANALYSES'rERN11NOLOGY:
<br />TPH-G Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon, Gasoline, GC/F1D (5030) 8015 trod or GC/MS 8260
<br />TPH-D Total Petroleum hydrocarbon, Diesel, GC/FID (3550), 8015 mod or GC/MS 8260
<br />BTX d: EBenzene, Toluene, Xylene & Ethyl Benzene, GC/PID 8020 or GC/MS 8260
<br />Cl_ HC Chlorinated liydrocarbon, GCIHSD 8010, GCIMS &240 or 8260
<br />TOTAL LEAD Total lead, AA 7420, AA 7421 or ICP -AES 6010
<br />OXYGENATES MTBE, ETBE, TAME, DIPS, & TBA GC/MS 8260 (f'or MTBE screen only you tray use 8020)
<br />SIF.TALS ]CAP or AA Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry 6010 or Atomic Absorption Spectrometry 7000. Metal,:
<br />Cadmium, Chromium III and VI, Lead, Zine and Nickel.
<br />PCB Polychlorinated Biphenyls, GC/MS 8270 or 8080
<br />GC -IID Gas Chromatography, Flame Ionization Detection
<br />Mctliod 3050 Acid digestion
<br />Metltod 3540 Soxhlet sample preparation
<br />Method 3550 Sonication sample preparation, extraction method
<br />Method 5030 Purge and trap sample preparation
<br />QA/QC Quality Assurance/Quality Control
<br />Notes: To avoid false positive detection of benzene, benzene -free solvents are to be used, Fused capillary culumns are preferred to packed columns; a
<br />packed column may be used as a "first cut" with "dirty" samples or once the hydrocarbons have been characterized and proper QA/QC is followed. For
<br />drinking water sources, EPA recommends that the 500 series for volatile organic should be used in preference to the 600 series because the detection
<br />limits are lower and the QA/QC is better. Samples exhibiting any level of heavy metal contamination tnay require further analysis. PIIS -1:111)
<br />recommends holding those samples until disposal is indicated.
