ALTON GEOSCIENCE <br /> GENERAL FIELD PROCEDURES <br /> FOR <br /> GROUND WATER MONITORING AND SAMPLING <br /> Ground water monitoring and sampling was performed in accordance with the guidelines <br /> of the San Joaquin County Public Health Services Department (SJCPHSD) and Regional <br /> Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region (RWQCB). Prior to purging and <br /> sampling each well, total well depth and depth to ground water was measured with an <br /> accuracy of 0.01 foot from a reference mark at the top of each well casing using an <br /> electronic sounder. <br /> Prior to sample collection, each well was purged of the required well casing volumes or until <br /> stabilization of pH, temperature, and conductivity was achieved. Purging was accomplished <br /> using either a clean bailer or pump. <br /> Ground water samples were collected using a disposable bailer, then carefully transferred <br /> into clean, laboratory-supplied glass containers. The sampler wore nitnle gloves at all times <br /> during purging and well sampling. The samples were clearly labeled with well number, site <br /> identification, date and time of collection, and sampler's uutials, and transported to a <br /> California-certified laboratory following proper preservation and chain of custody protocol. <br /> Ground water generated during purging was introduced to the automatic ground water <br /> recovery and treatment system. <br /> i <br /> i <br />
