f <br /> Date: October 27,2005 <br /> Quarter: 204 Quarter,2005 <br /> APPENDIX A <br /> FIELD AND LABORATORY PROCEDURES <br /> 3 <br /> Sampling Procedures <br /> Sampling equipment'is thoroughly cleaned prior to the collection of each sample. The sampling procedure for each <br /> well includes measuring the water level and checking for the presence of separate-phase hydrocarbons(SPH),using <br /> either an electronic indicator and a clear Teflon® bailer or an oil-water interface probe. Wells not containing SPH <br /> are }purged of approximately three casing volumes of water (or to dryness) using a submersible pump, centrifugal <br /> pump, gas displacement pump, or bailer. The equipment and purging methods used for the current sampling event <br /> are noted on the attached field data sheets. During purging, temperature, pH, electrical conductivity,and dissolved <br /> oxygen are monitored in order to document that these parameters are stable prior to collecting samples. After <br /> purging, water levels are allowed to partially recover. Groundwater samples are collected using a clean disposable <br /> TeflonO bailer,placed into appropriate EPA-approved containers,labeled,logged onto chain-of-custody documents, <br /> and transported on ice to a California state-certified laboratory. <br /> t <br /> Decontamination Procedures <br /> CI <br /> Prior to sampling each well,reels and pumps will be decontaminated with a steam cleaner. Sensitive equipment such <br /> as the water level sounder are sprayed with a non-phosphate soap and deionized water solution and rinsed with <br /> deionized water. All water used for equipment decontamination is collected and contained in a truck-mounted water <br /> tank. ; <br /> Laboratory Procedures <br /> The;groundwater samples are analyzed for the presence of GRO (gasoline range organics C4 — C12), BTEX, fuel <br /> oxygenates, and 1,2-DCA by using EPA Method 82608. The methods of analysis for the groundwater samples are <br /> documented in the laboratory analytical report. The laboratory analytical report, chain-of-custody documentation, <br /> and;field data sheets are presented as Appendix B. <br /> E� <br /> Purge and Rinsate Water Disposal <br /> Water generated;during well sampling and equipment cleaning is pumped into a truck-mounted water tank. The <br /> water is transported to the Blaine Tech Services holding facility in Roseville, California, or in the ARCO holding <br /> facility in West Sacramento, California, for temporary storage. Dillard Environmental Services then transports the <br /> water to the Altamont Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility in Altamont,California,for disposal. <br />' 3 <br /> fE <br /> E <br /> E <br /> E <br /> ] <br /> 1 <br /> - KNWproeess0BPARCCW?130kQ.Merly\200513QTR OS2]30GWMR3Q05-doe - Page A-1 <br /> ] <br /> F <br /> i <br /> 1 <br />
