S <br /> ATC Associates Inc. <br /> Quality Assurance/Quality Control Plan <br /> Revised March 1998 JJJ <br /> i <br /> This sample will be immediately placed into a cooler containing dry ice or frozen chemical ice. <br /> A "high-low" temperature recording thermomete will accompany sample shipments to ensure <br /> proper temperature maintenance. The samples v411 be delivered to a state certified laboratory <br /> 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 /> description and identification of soils (ASTM -2488-84). Stratigraphic, genetic and other <br /> i <br /> data/interpretations will also be recorded. Soil properties may also be determined from the <br /> middle brass tube and from the sampler shoe. jUternatively the second sample tube may be <br /> used with the uppermost tube for preparation o 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 /> drive. <br /> Soil samples will be collected at:5-foot intervals, t significant changes in lithology and intervals <br /> i <br /> of obvious contamination in order to develop a complete profile of soil contamination. <br /> 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 /> preparations for soil sampling will be made prior o tank removal. Soil samples collected from <br /> a backhoe bucket or directly from the excava ion floor will be collected in a thin-walled <br /> stainless steel or brass cylinder: at least 3-inches long by 1-inch in diameter.
