B.1.2 Laboratory Operations <br /> In accordance with sample custody protocol, the analytical laboratory will perform the <br /> following operations for sample custody: <br /> * Laboratory Receipt of Samples <br /> * Pre-Analysis Storage/Preservation <br /> * Post-Analysis Storage <br /> Laboratory Receipt of Samples <br /> Upon receiving the samples, the sample custodian will inspect the condition of the samples, <br /> compare the information on the sample labels against the field COC, and enter a laboratory <br /> project tracking number on the COC, in the laboratory's log-in book, and also into the <br /> laboratory's computer inventory/tracking system. The custodian will maintain custody of the <br /> samples until assigned to an analyst for analysis. <br /> If the analytical laboratory sample custodian judges.sample condition/custody to be invalid, <br /> the lab will initiate a non-conformance report. The lab will advise the PM and/or the <br /> Quality Assurance Officer immediately and will not analyze the sample(s) unless the PM so <br /> authorizes. The PM will decide the fate of the sample(s) in question and sign the non- <br /> conformance report, indicating the reason for the disposition. The sample(s) will either be <br /> processed as is with custody failure noted along with the analytical data, or rejected, and <br /> sampling will be rescheduled, if necessary. <br /> For each time custody of the sample(s) changes, the new sample custodian will sign the COC <br /> and note the date and,time. All samples will either be returned to Terranext, or will be <br /> disposed of at the laboratory.
