material. Samples which obviously are hazardous materials should therefore be shipped as such, <br />and samples which most likely are not hazardous materials should be shipped in coolers. <br />Guidelines for shipping hazardous materials by UPS are provided in the Guide for Shipping <br />Hazardous Materials available from UPS. Specific labels for shipping of hazardous materials are <br />available. <br />Chain-of-custody documentation should accompany shipments of samples to the analytical <br />laboratory. Often, the chain-of-custody document contains an analytical request section which may <br />be completed following sample collection. Chronological listing of collected samples is desirable. A <br />copy of the completed chain-of-custody form should be retained in the event that the original form is <br />lost or destroyed. <br />It should be noted that samples retained by the analytical laboratory which are not chosen for <br />analysis may be assessed a fee for disposal. Often a disposal fee is assigned to a sample, typically <br />soil, that has been retained beyond standard analytical holding periods. Therefore, consultation with <br />project management is recommended to determine which samples may be of interest. Contacting <br />the selected analytical laboratory regarding disposal policies is also recommended. Arrangements <br />may be made with the analytical laboratory for return of the unanalyzed samples for later disposal <br />to the area of origin. <br />Additional Soil and Groundwater Sample Work Plan, 2 <br />BNSF Mormon Yard, Stockton, CA <br />Lid1appd_sogsamplepackingshipping acpt chng_wp cloc
