- 1 <br /> ATC Associates Inc. <br /> Quality Assurance/Quality Control Plan <br /> Revised March 1998 <br /> to form a positive meniscus. No headspace should be present in the sample container once it is <br /> sealed. After the vial is capped it.will be inverted to check for air bubbles. If bubbles are present <br /> the sample will be discarded and replaced. If it is not possible to collect a sample without <br /> headspace, the problem will be noted on the field technician's sampling log. <br /> Immediately following sample collection, samples will be labeled and stored in an ice chest <br /> containing frozen chemical ice sealed in plastic bags. Sample labels will contain the following <br /> information: <br /> ✓ date and time <br /> ✓ project ID <br /> ✓ sample ID <br /> ✓ name of sampler <br /> ✓ type of analysis to be performed <br /> All samples will be transported under chain-of-custody protocol to a state certified laboratory within <br /> 24 hours. A sample container filled in the laboratory with organic free water and carried unopened <br /> during the sampling trip will also be provided (Trip Blank). A "high-low" temperature recording <br /> thermometer will also accompany sample shipments to ensure proper sample temperature <br /> maintenance. <br /> Samples will be transported either by ATC Associates Inc. personnel or by private carrier. <br /> Analytical holding times will be considered in determining sampling and shipping schedules. <br /> Friday shipment/Saturday laboratory receipt of samples will be coordinated in advance with the <br /> Laboratory. <br /> W:1AdminlsheI1s%QAQC-98.DOC <br /> 15 <br />
