Static Water Level Measurements <br /> i <br /> LW Before purging and sampling during ground water monitoring events, static water level will be <br /> measured using an electric water level indicator. Water level data will be recorded to the nearest <br /> IL 0.01-foot from a reference point marked of the top of the PVC well casing.Before and after each use, <br /> the electric oil/water level indicator will be washed in an Alconox solution and rinsed with water. <br /> i . <br /> L <br /> { <br /> 4.4.2. Well Evacuation <br /> After measuring the depth to ground water and prior to sampling, the well will be purged using a <br /> submersible pump to ensure that the ground water sample is representative of the formation,rather <br /> than water standing in the well casing.The well will be purged until: 1) a minimum of three casing <br /> volumes is removed from the well, arid/or 2) the field-measured ground water parameters pH, <br /> temperature, and electrical conductivity have stabilized. However, if a well is purged dry prior to <br /> yevacuating three casing volumes, a ground water sample will be collected following 80 percent <br /> recovery of ground water level within the well, or within 8 hours of well evacuation. <br /> Purge water, free-product,and decontamination water generated during the ground water sampling <br /> ' activities will be contained in Department of Transportation (DOT)-approved 55-gallon drums, <br /> s which will be appropriately labeled for storage.Drums containing purge water will be stored on-site <br /> pending appropriate removal and disposal. <br /> r <br /> 4.4.3. Sample Withdrawal <br /> f Water samples will be collected from the monitoring wells using a disposable polyethylene bailer <br /> v, or dedicated teflon tubing used in conjunction with an inertia pump.The bailers are disposed of after <br /> one use and require no decontamination, and the teflon tubing used with the inertia pump is either <br /> dedicated to each well or changed at each sampling event,thereby minimizing cross-contamination <br /> due to sampling devices. Samples will be drawn and collected in such a manner that agitation and <br /> exposure of the groundwater to.the atmosphere are minimal. <br /> 4.4.4. Sample Handling <br /> i <br /> Ground water samples will be collected into laboratory-supplied containers. Ground water samples <br /> to be analyzed for TPH-g,TPH-d,BTEX,and fuel additives will be collected into 40-milliliter(ml) <br /> volatile organic analysis(VOA)vials containing 0.5 ml 18%hydrochloric acid solution as a sample <br /> V° preservative; ground water samples to be analyzed for TPH-d will be collected into 1-liter amber. <br /> �, Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc. <br />
