The samples will be delivered to a state certified laboratory <br /> r following under chain-of-custody protocol within 48 hours of sampling, whenever possible. <br /> Soil in the uppermost brass tube will be described according'to ASTM standard practice for <br /> I <br /> description and identification of soils (ASTM D-2488,84). Stratigraphic, genetic and other <br /> data/interpretations will also be recorded. Soil properties may also be determined from the <br /> i <br /> middle brass tube and from the sampler shoe. Alternatively!,the second sample tube may be <br /> i11 <br /> used with the uppermost tube for preparation of duplicates. These field observations will be <br /> noted on a log prepared for each boring/well. <br /> During sampling, latex gloves will be worn to prevent cross-contamination with other samples. <br /> I <br /> The disposable gloves will be discarded after collecting samples from each 18-inch sample <br /> e <br /> { drive. f <br /> # I <br /> Soil samples will be collected at 5-foot intervals, at significant changes in lithology and intervals <br /> of obvious contamination in order to develop a complete profile of soil contamination. <br /> i 11.2 Sample Collection During Tank Removal <br /> ' Soil samples will be collected as soon as possible after removal of the tank. Where feasible, all <br /> y preparations for soil sampling will be made prior to tank removal. Soil samples collected from <br /> i � <br /> a backhoe bucket or directly from the excavation floor will be collected in a thin-walled <br /> II ,I <br /> stainless steel or brass cylinder at least 3-inches long by 1-inch in diameter.
