April 2015 <br /> AGE Project No. 15-3394 <br /> Page 2 of 4 <br /> Soil and soil-vapor samples will be submitted to a California Department of Public <br /> Health (CDPH)-Certified laboratory and analyzed for volatile organic compounds <br /> (VOC's) by EPA Method 8260B. <br /> Upon completion of the field work and receipt of laboratory analysis, a brief report will <br /> be prepared. The report will be reviewed and signed by a California Professional <br /> Geologist. <br /> PERMITTING AND PRE-FIELD WORK ACTIVITIES <br /> Applicable drilling permits will be obtained from the SJCEHD and a site-specific Health <br /> and Safety Plan will be prepared. Prior to mobilization, each soil boring location will be <br /> clearly marked and a utility clearance obtained through Underground Service Alert. The <br /> SJCEHD will be contacted a minimum of five days prior to conducting investigation <br /> activities to arrange for inspection. <br /> FIELD PROCEDURES <br /> All field procedures will be overseen by an AGE representative working under the <br /> supervision of a California Professional Geologist. Procedures for sample collection and <br /> analysis, equipment decontamination and sample handling are presented below. <br /> SOIL SAMPLING <br /> Soil samples will be collected from the borings proposed to 15 feet bsg at discrete five- <br /> foot intervals using a 1.45-inch soil sampling assembly loaded with one two-foot long <br /> acetate liner. A selected section of the liner will be cut, capped with Teflon sheets and <br /> preserved, then placed on ice. Thereafter, soil encountered in the boring will be visually <br /> classified by an AGE geologist or environmental scientist in accordance with the Unified <br /> Soil Classification System (USCS). Additionally, soil sample duplicates will be field- <br /> screened for the presence of volatile organic compounds using an organic vapor meter <br /> (OVM), equipped with photo-ionization detector (PID). <br /> Selected soil samples will be transported to Cal-Tech Environmental Laboratories of <br /> Paramount, California and analyzed for VOC's by EPA Method 8260B. <br /> Advanced GeoEn ironmental.Inc. <br />
