8 Sample Identification, Documentation <br /> and Shipment <br /> Proper identification, documentation, and handling of samples is crucial to subsequent <br /> evaluations of the environmental data. The following describes the requirements for sample <br /> identification, documentation, and shipment. <br /> 8.1 Sample Nomenclature <br /> Each sample requires a unique identifier that ideally indicates the type of sample, the location on <br /> the site where the sample was collected, and the depth of the sample. <br /> 8.1.1 Routine Soil Samples <br /> Each soil sample will be assigned a unique Sample Identification Number using the following <br /> designations: <br /> All samples will begin with an abbreviated site reference—EC I—followed by a hyphen and the <br /> letter S for soil samples then a hyphen, and a two digit boring ID. The two digit boring ID will be <br /> prefixed by"1"for duplicate samples. The boring ID will be followed by a hyphen and the <br /> sampling depth in feet bgs. For example if a soil sample is collected from boring 02 at a depth of <br /> 2 feet bgs, it will be designated EC1-S-02-2. <br /> 8.1.2 Split-duplicates <br /> Split-duplicate and blank samples will be assigned names based on the sampling location. <br /> Duplicate samples will be assigned with a"1"prefix on the boring number portion of the sample <br /> ID. For example, if sample EC1-S-02-2 is designated for duplicate sampling, the duplicate <br /> sample would be identified as EC 1-S-102-2. The primary sample and duplicate sample IDs will <br /> be recorded in the field documentation. <br /> 8.2.1 Routine Groundwater Samples <br /> Each groundwater sample will be assigned a unique Sample Identification Number using the <br /> following designations: <br /> All samples will begin with an abbreviated site reference—EC 1—followed by a hyphen and the <br /> letter W for water samples then a hyphen,and a two digit boring ID. The two digit boring ID will <br /> be prefixed by"1" for duplicate samples. For example a water sample collected from boring 02 <br /> will be designated EC1-W-02. <br /> 8.2.2 Split-duplicates and Blanks <br /> Duplicate and blank samples will be assigned names based on the sampling location. Duplicate <br /> samples will be assigned with a"1"prefix on the boring number portion of the sample ID. For <br /> example, if sample EC1-W-02 is designated for duplicate sampling, the duplicate sample would <br /> be identified as EC1-W-102. The primary sample and duplicate sample IDs will be recorded in <br /> the field documentation. <br /> 14:002693.1401.01 BR 8-1 <br /> EI ComaVo No,I <br />
