f M� 3 SCOPE OF WORK Following is a detailed description of the field procedures utilized during the recent soil and ground-t°rater characterization. These procedures were conducted consistent with the approved work plan. The scope of work for this project included the following tasks: • drilling one exploratory soil boring • collecting and analyzing soil samples • installing a ground-water monitoring well • developing and sampling the ground-water monitoring well • submitting selected soil samples and the ground-water sample for chemical analysis F ` 3.9 Exploratory Sr.!I Boring On May 28, 1991, one exploratory soil boring (MW-1) was drilled through the center of the former excavation at the location shown on Figure 5. The soil boring was drilled using 8-inch-diameter hollow-stem auger drilling equipment. Soil samples were collected at 5-foot intervals in advance of the auger bit with a modified California split-spoon sampler containing stainless steel liners. These samples were collected for geologic interpre- tation and chemical analysis. Representative soil samples from each sam- piing interval were sealed in stainless steel liners with Teflon tape and plastic end caps, placed in ziploc bags, and stored on ice pending selec- tion for chemical analysis. Exploratory boring and well installation proce- du,-es are presented in Appendix A, and the exploratory boring logs are presented in Appendix B. The sampling equipment was cleaned between sampling events. The 1 cleaning involved washing with a trisodium phosphate solution, followed by tinsi'ag with tap wator. —; Soil sampiez wer, screened in the field by performing visual, olfactory, _l and head-spa,:e analysis using a portable photoionization detector (PIC}).
