trucks, properly labelled, and shipped to an appropriate treat- ment/disposal facility if determined to be contaminated. The estimated volume of excavation material is approximately 30 cubic yards. Shipment of all wastes will be performed by licensed haulers. 7. 0 SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PLAN Soil samples will be collected at the locations specified in the closure steps. Samples will be collected using a driven-tube type sampler or from a backhoe scoop by inserting a brass tube into the retrieved soils and then capped and sealed to minimize volatiliza- tion of any volatile materials present in the sample. Water samples will be collected with a bailer or other sampling device that would minimize volatilization of the sample. The water sample will then be transferred to appropriate laboratory prepared bottles for sample analyses. All VOA vials are to be filled with as little agitation as possible, and a teflon lined septum seals the vials so that no air is present in the sample. Chain-of-Custody records will be maintained from sample collection to laboratory receipt for all samples collected. Samples are cooled to 4°C until sample analysis, and analyzed within the specified holding times. The samples will be analyzed by a California DHS State certified laboratory. Sample analysis will be performed in accordance with EPA methodologies in Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste. Physical/Chemical Methods and Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes. Sampling equipment will be decontaminated between each sampling location. The equipment will be cleaned with alconox or a similar detergent soap, followed by a rinse with distilled water. The backhoe bucket is to be steam-cleaned prior to and between each sample collection location. A hexane solvent (laboratory-grade) may also be used to remove any petroleum products. Equipment will be completely air dried before use. 8. 0 SITE SAFETY PLAN A site safety plan will be provided by the contractor performing p the closure of the underground storage tank. The following items ! will be required in the plan: o Background information on the tank. o Identification of the key personnel for the project, including their health and safety responsibilities. o Identification of the potential job hazards, both chemical and physical. o Summary of risks/impacts on receptors at or near the job location.
