I <br /> If PSH thickness is less than 0 02 foot,and the well is planned for purging prior to <br />' sample collection,the well is purged and sampled in accordance with the sample collection <br /> section of this SOP If the PSH thickness is 0 02 foot or greater,the PSH is bailed from the well, <br /> and left onsite in a labeled and sealed container No sample is collected for analysis from wells <br />' having a PSH thickness of greater than 0 02 foot <br />' I Lk-Inru Samidine <br /> Well purging is not conducted prior to sampling if purging is not needed to meet <br /> technical and/or <br />' regulatory project regwremeints Following collection of water level measurements,wells <br /> that are not purged are sampled according to the protocol in the sample collection section of flus <br /> SOP <br />' I P <br /> Well purging is conducted prior to sampling if purging is needled to meet technical and/or <br />' regulatory project requirements If purging is conducted, the monitoring wells are purged using a <br /> vacuum truck, submersible electric pump, bailer,hand pump, or bladder pump, as appropriate for <br /> site conditions A surge block may be used if it becomes apparent during purging that the well <br />' screen has become bridged with sediment or the produced groundwater is overly turbid <br /> During the purging process,groundwater is monitored for temperature,pH, conductivity, <br /> turbidity, odor, and color These parameters are recorded on a water sample log Purging <br /> continues until all stagnant, water within the wells is replaced by fresh formation water, as <br /> indicated by removal of a minimum number I of well volumes and/or stabilization of the <br /> above-outlined parameters Sampling is performed after the well recharges to at least 80 percent <br /> of hydrostatic <br /> Purge water is stored on site in Department of Transportation-approved, 55-gallon dnuns <br />' until water sample analytical results are received from the laboratory If active groundwater <br /> treatment is occurring at the site, purge water may be disposed of through the treatment system, <br /> or the purge water may be transported off site as non-hazardous waste to an approved off-site <br />' disposal facility If permanent pumps are installed in the wells for groundwater remediation, <br /> purging may be accomplished by operating the pumps for at least 24 hours before samplumg to <br /> ensure adequate purging <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br />
