PROCEDURES <br /> 4.1. COLLECTION OF SOIL AND GROUNDWATER SAMPLES <br /> For the collection of soil and ground water samples, the following procedures will be performed: <br /> 1. Prepare a site health and safety plan in accordance with Occupational Safety and Health <br /> Guidance Manual for Hazardous Waste Site Activities (Prepared by National Institute for <br /> Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Environmental <br /> Protection Agency, 1985). <br /> 2. Notify the PHS-EHD 48 hours prior to commencement of any work, while securing proper <br /> city/county soil boring permits. <br /> 3. Boring locations will be marked at least 48 hours in advance for an Underground Service <br /> Alert (USA) check of underground utilities or pipes. <br /> 4. Initial,advance five(5)probe borings using a van-mounted Geoprobe equipped with a 1.125- <br /> inch diameter probe rods. Probe borings will be advanced to depths of 15 and 25 feet bsg. <br /> Probe boring locations are illustrated on Figure 2. If field conditions indicate that impacted <br /> soil is present, additional probe borings may be advanced. <br /> 5. Decontaminate sampling equipment in an Alconox solution and rinse twice with water prior <br /> to each sampling run. <br /> 6. Obtain discrete soil samples at five foot intervals, using a Geoprobe soil sampler assembly <br /> loaded with pre-cleaned 1.125-inch by 6-inch brass sleeves. <br /> 7. Preserve soil in the second brass sleeve by covering both ends with Teflon sheets, capping, <br /> and sealing with tape. Label and log samples on a chain-of-custody form. <br /> 8. Store the samples under ice and transport the samples in a chilled container to a state- <br /> certified laboratory for analysis. <br /> 9. Screen soil sample duplicates for the presence of volatile organics using a photo-ionization <br /> detector(PID) pre-calibrated to isobutylene. <br /> 10. Log borings in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System. <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmental.Inc. <br />
