Sample Labeling and Handling <br /> Water samples were preserved in laboratory-cleaned, 40-milliliter glass vials that contained <br /> concentrated hydrochloric acid as a preservative The water samples were sealed with <br /> Teflon-lined lids to ehn-unate air bubbles The sample containers were labeled in the field with <br /> the site identification, monitoring well number and depth, and date, and promptly placed in iced <br /> storage for transport to the laboratory The geologist initiated chain-of-custody records in the <br /> field that accompanied the samples to a laboratory certified by the state of California for the <br /> analyses requested Samples were transported to the laboratory promptly Samples in our <br /> custody were properly disposed of after their useful life had expired <br /> Evaluating the Groundwater Flow Direction and Gradient <br /> The elevations and positions ('Y' and "y" lateral coordinates) of the monitoring well were <br /> surveyed by a licensed land surveyor The elevations of the monitoring wells were referenced <br /> to within 0 01 foot of the bench mark The horizontal distances were measured to the nearest <br /> 0 1 foot The elevations were taken to either the notch or the arrow on the well casing <br /> The groundwater elevations for each monitoring well were calculated by subtracting the depth <br /> to water from the wellhead elevation The groundwater elevation information was to construct <br /> a potentiometnc surface map, which was used to evaluate the direction of groundwater flow <br /> and the magnitude of the groundwater gradient <br /> SACW'\PJ2\2613\26131000 1 BS 97,prz 1 A-2 Rev 0,5/1/97 <br />
