28 June 2007 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 05-1110 <br /> Page 5 of 5 <br /> sleeve will be covered with Teflon sheets, capped and sealed with tape. <br /> Appropriately sealed and labeled samples will be placed in a chilled container under ice and <br /> transported under chain-of-custody procedure to a DHS-certified laboratory.Each sample sleeve will <br /> be labeled with the boring designation,depth,time,date and sampler's initials. Soils encountered in <br /> the borings will be visually classified by an AGE geologist in accordance with the Unified Soil <br /> Classification System(USCS).Additionally,soil samples will be field-screened for the presence of <br /> volatile organic compounds using an organic vapor meter(OVM), equipped with photo-ionization <br /> detector(PID). <br /> 4.3. GRAB GROUND WATER SAMPLING PROCEDURES <br /> For the collection of grab ground water samples, soil probe borings will be advanced to the top of <br /> the ground water table as identified by collection of a saturated soil sample. Once ground water has <br /> been encountered,a Geoprobe push-driven water sampling device will be advanced two to three feet <br /> into the water-bearing zone. Grab ground water sample will be collected using a Geoprobe water <br /> sampling assembly fitted with a pre-cleaned,one-inch diameter 0.01-slotted temporary well screen. <br /> The ground water sample will be extracted by lowering a polyethylene bailer through the hollow <br /> center of the push rods into the screen section. <br /> Appropriately sealed and labeled samples will be placed in a chilled container under ice and <br /> transported under chain-of-custody procedure to a DHS-certified laboratory.Each sample container <br /> will be labeled with the boring designation, time, date and sampler's initials. <br /> 4.4. EQUIPMENT DECONTAMINATION <br /> Prior to use,all sampling tools used for sample collection will be thoroughly rinsed with clean water <br /> after being washed with a solution of Alconox. All probing rods will be cleaned prior to <br /> advancement at each probe boring location. <br /> 4.5. BORING ABANDONMENT <br /> The probe borings will be permanently sealed to prevent vertical migration of potential <br /> contaminants. Soil boring shall be abandoned by backfilling with portland cement from the total <br /> depth to surface grade. <br /> Advanced GeoEnvirontnental,Inc. <br />
