All analysis methods are the designated EPA methods described in EPA SW 80, Third Edition. Those methods not found in
<br />SW 846 are specifically noted below. Refer to the "SWRCB LUFT Field Manual', Appendix D (B): Table 3-5 on page A20
<br />for minimum detection limits for motor vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel). Refer to 1-2-3 "Regional Board Staff
<br />Recommendations for Initial Evaluation and Investigation of UST's" for the waste and motor oil minimum detection limits.
<br />Detection Limits that remain below the MCL, STLC or Allowable Limit of the contaminant in question will be accepted,
<br />however laboratory shall utilize the most conservative method.

<br />Method 3550 Sonication sample preparation, extraction method .
<br />Method 5030 Purge and trap sample prep 'on
<br />QA/QC Quality ce/Quality Control
<br />Notes: To avoid false positive detection of benzene, benzene -free solvents are to be used. Fused capillary columns are
<br />preferred to packed columns, a packed column may be used as a "first cut" with "dirty" samples or once the hydrocarbons have
<br />been characterized and proper QA/QC is followed.
<br />For drinking water sources. EPA recommends that the 500 series for volatile organic should be used in preference to the 600
<br />series because the detection limits are lower and the QA/QC is better. Samples exhibiting any level of heavy metal
<br />contamination may require further analysis. PHS-EHD recommends holding those samples until disposal is indicated.
