(11/81) <br /> II BACKGROUND <br /> * Identify current and historical site information and data which might have a <br /> bearing on the proposed sampling and data collection effort. Describe the <br /> site hydrogeology, when applicable. Include unusual analytical parameters <br /> and special methods from past site work. Summarize the significant analytical <br /> results from previous sampling events. <br /> * The updated Preliminary Assessment is only required for initial Site <br /> Inspection Sampling Plans. <br /> III MAPS <br /> * All pertinent locations should be identified. <br /> * Highlight sampling points, }mown & potential contamination sources, directions <br /> of groundwater flow, and all other significant information on the maps. <br /> IV RATIONALE FOR SAMPLE LOCATIONSâ–ş NUh' ERS OF SAMPLES, & ANALYTICAL PARAMETEPS <br /> * This section covers the what, where and why of the sampling plan. <br /> * Identify the specific sampling points and analytical parameters. <br /> * Discuss the rationale behind the sample point selection process and whether <br /> it is based on a random, judgemental, or systematic approach, or a canbination <br /> of these. Are sane s anpling points (e.g. , wells) left out? If so, explain <br /> why. What is not being sampled? <br /> * Discuss the rationale behind the analytical parameters being selected. <br /> Explain why some samples may be analyzed for one suite of analytical parameters <br /> and other samples for different parameter suites. Identify the site indicator <br /> canpounds and other parameters of most significant interest. If low (non-routine) <br /> detection limits are required, identify the action levels of concern. <br /> V REQUEST FOR ANALYSES (Tabular and Narrative) <br /> * This section provides the details necessary for obtaining analytical services <br /> through EPA's Contract Lab Program (CLP) and/or from a non-CLP laboratory. <br /> * CLP analyses will be either Routine Analytical Services (RAS) , or Special <br /> Analytical Services (SAS) , or a combination of these two analytical services <br /> (RAS+SAS) . <br /> * Under the RAS program four types of analyses are provided for soil and/or <br /> water matrices: volatiles, semivolatiles, pesticides/PCBs, metals and <br /> cyanide. The ccmpounas included in the RAS analyses are the CLP Target <br /> Conpound List (TCL) . Appendix B lists all of the compounds on the TCL by <br /> type of analysis, and includes the contract required quantitation limits <br /> (CRQLs) . The Hazardous Substance List (HSL) and Priority Pollutant List <br /> (PPL) are NOT identical ccmpounds lists to the TCL. <br />
