L) 1 MINIMUM VERIFICATION LABORATORY ANALYSIS
<br />All analysis methods are the designated EPA methods described in EPA SW 946, Third Edition. Those methods not found in SW 946 are
<br />specifically toted below. Refer to the "SWRCB LUFT Field Manual", Appendix D (B), Table 3-5 on page A20 for minimum detection
<br />limits for motor vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel). Refer to "Tri -Regional Board Staff Recommendations for Initial Evaluation and
<br />Investigation of UST"s" for the waste and motor oil minimum detection limits. Detection Limits that remain below the MCI., STLC ar
<br />Allowable Limit of the contaminant in question will be accepted, however laboratory shall utilize the most conservative method.
<br />LABORATORY ANALYSES TERMINOLOGY:
<br />TPH-G Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon, Gasoline, GC/FID (5030) 9015 mod or GC/MS 9260
<br />TPH-D Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon, Diesel, GC/FID (3550), 9015 mod or GC/MS 9260
<br />BTX & EBenzene,'foluene, Xylene & Ethyl Benzene, GC/PID 9020 or GC/MS 9260
<br />CL HC Chlorinated Hydrocarbon, GC/IiSD 9010, GC/MS 9240 or 9260
<br />TOTAL LEAD Total lead, AA 7420, AA 7421 or ICP -AES 6010
<br />OXYGENATES MTBE, ELBE, TAME, DIPS, & TBA GC/MS 9260 ( For MTBE screen only you may use 9020)
<br />METALS ICAP or AA Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry 6010 or Atomic Absorption Spectrometry 7000. Memb:
<br />Cadeirm, Chradm 111 =it VI, Lead, Lar and Nickel.
<br />PCB Polychlorinated Biphenyls, GC/MS 9270 or 9090
<br />GC -FID Gas Chromatography, Flame lonnation Detection
<br />Method 3050 Acid digestion
<br />Method 3540 Soxhlet sample preparation
<br />Method 3550 Sonication sample preparation, extraction method
<br />Method 5030 Purge and trap sample preparation
<br />QA/Q(' Quality Assun mce/Qwlity Control
<br />Notes- 'Ib avoid false positive detection of benzene, benzene -fee solvents arc to he used Fused aapilla y columns are preferred w packed cohmmrs; a
<br />packed wlumn may be used as a "fust wt" with "dirty" samples or once the hydrocarbons have been characterized and proper QA/QC is followed For
<br />drinking water sources, HPA recommends that the 500 series for volatile organa: should be used in preference io the 600 series because the detection
<br />limits are lower and the QA/QC is better. Samples exhibiting any level of heavy metal contamination may require further analysis. PHS-EHD
<br />recommends holding those samples until disposal is indicated
