The grab water samples were collected from influent,effluent and receiving water locations utilizing <br /> 1-liter amber bottles, 1-gallon plastic jugs without a sample preservative and 40-m1 EPA-approved <br /> VOA vials containing 0 5 ml 18% hydrochloric acid as a sample preservative Care was taken to <br /> ensure that visible air bubbles were not present in the vials after filling and capping Ground water <br /> sample containers were labeled with a sample designation, date, time, and sampler's initials <br /> I ' <br /> 2 3 LABORATORY ANALYSIS OF GROUND WATER PUMP AND TREAT SAMPLES <br /> The monthly influent and effluent grab water samples were logged on a chain-of-custody form, <br /> placed in a chilled container and transported to a California Department of Health Services(DHS)- <br /> certified laboratory for analysis for <br /> • Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline and diesel (TPH-g and TPH-d, <br /> respectively) by EPA Methods 3550/5030/8015C Modified, <br /> • Benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylene (BTEX) by EPA Method 8021B, <br /> • Methanol, ethanol, tertiary butanol (TBA), di-isopropyl ether(DIPE), ethyl tert butyl ether <br /> (ETBE),tert amyl methyl ether(TAME),methyl tert butyl ether(MTBE), 1,2-dichloroethane <br /> (1,2-DCA) and ethylene dibromide (EDB) by EPA Method 8260B, <br /> • Total lead (quarterly sampling frequency, influent samples only) by EPA Method <br /> 6010/2007, <br /> Advanced GeoEnvi ron mental,Inc <br />
