both ends of the brass liner will be covered with Teflon, securely capped with polyethylene <br />end caps, labeled, and placed in an ice chest containing Blue Ice and kept at 4 ° C for transport <br />to the analytical laboratory for chemical analyses. <br />If soil samples cannot be safely collected from the excavation, soil samples will be collected <br />utilizing the backhoe. Immediately upon removal of the tank, a backhoe bucket of native soil <br />from each sample location will be taken. After filling the backhoe shovel from the desired <br />location in the bottom of the excavation, a large solid chunk of soil will be chosen for sample <br />collection. Using a hand trowel, approximately 6 inches of soil will be rapidly scraped away <br />from the surface of the soil. Soil samples will then be collected as previously described. <br />Water samples will be collected utilizing a disposable bottom -entry polyethylene bailer. The <br />collected sample will be transferred into a 40 milliliter VOA vial with as little aeration as <br />possible, and allowing no headspace in the vial. A Teflon septum inside the vial's cap will be <br />used to seal the vial. The collected sample will be labeled and placed in an ice chest <br />maintained at 4 ° C for transport to the analytical laboratory for chemical analyses. <br />All samples collected will be labeled with the sample identifier, location, sampler's name, <br />time and date of sample collection, and analyses requested using a black indelible marking <br />pen. All samples collected will be recorded on a Sample Management/Chain-of-Custody <br />form which will track the sample from time of collection to delivery at the analytical <br />laboratory. All information recorded on the Sample Management/Chain-of-Custody form <br />will be entered in ink. <br />Prior to and following each subsequent soil and/or ground -water sampling event, all sampling <br />equipment will be cleaned. Cleaning will consist of removing solid material from the <br />sampling equipment using clear water and plastic bristle brush, washing the sampling <br />equipment in a mixture of clear water and Liqui-Nox or Alconox (the use of phosphate based <br />h1ps-05 <br />
