All analyses methods are designated EPA methods as <br /> described in EPA SW 846, Third Edition. Those methods not found in SW 846, are <br /> specifically noted. <br /> TPH G Total Petroleum 'Hydrocarbon, Gasoline <br /> TPH D Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon, Diesel <br /> TEPH Total Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbon (8015) <br /> BTX 6 E (8020) Benzene, Toluene, Xylene 6 Ethyl Benzene (8020) <br /> CL HC 8010 OR 8240 Chlorinated Hydrocarbon 8010 or 8240 <br /> TEL (DOHS-LUFT) Tetraethyl Lead (DOHS-LUFT) <br /> EDB (DOHS-AB 1603) Ethylene dibromide (DOHS-AB 1803) <br /> GC FID Gas Chromatography, Flame Ionization Detector <br /> ICP-AES OR AA Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry or Atomic <br /> Absorption Spectrometry <br /> Method 5030 Purge and Trap Sample Preparation <br /> Method 3550 Sonication Sample Preparation <br /> Method 3540 Soxhlet Sample Preparation <br /> QA/QC Quality Assurance/Quality Control <br /> Notes: To avoid false positive detection of benzene, benzene-free solvents are to be used. <br /> Fused capillary columns are preferred to packed columns; a packed column may be used as a <br /> "first cut" with "dirty" samples or once the hydrocarbons have been characterized and <br /> proper QA/QC is followed. <br /> For Drinking Water Sources, EPA recommends that the 500 series for volatile <br /> organics be used in preference to the 600 series because the detection limits are lover and <br /> the QA/QC is better. <br /> EH 23 048 12/88 <br />
