Wright Environmental Services, Inc. <br /> 3. The soil samples in the lowermost of brass liners in the sampling tool (if used) <br /> will be retained for chemical testing. The samples will be labeled and sealed in the <br /> field in their original liners. Sample liners ends will be sealed with Teflon® paper or <br /> aluminum foil, capped with clean cap plugs, and labeled and logged onto chain of <br /> custody forms. All samples retained for chemical analysis will be stored on ice in a <br /> clean, covered cooler-box/ice chest for transport to the Laboratory (see chain-of <br /> custody below)- <br /> Reconnaissance Groundwater Sampling Procedures <br /> This procedure is used when reconnaissance groundwater sampling without <br /> permanent wells is desired. Sampling from open pits or excavations, HydroPunch®, <br /> GeoProbe(b or temporarily cased open boreholes may be used. <br /> 1. Reconnaissance groundwater sample handling, and storage will follow <br /> suggested guidance documents of the Environmental Protection Agency and Regional <br /> Water Quality Control Board and local agency guidelines for site investigation. <br /> he <br /> 2.

All sample containers will be properly sealed with minimum <br /> headspace, labeled, and identified. Label information will include the date, sampler <br /> naive, sampling time, and identification number, and the project name and number <br /> and chain-of custody. <br /> If groundwater recharge is slow, sampling will begin within 24 hours following <br /> temporary well development, following the procedures detailed below for monitoring <br /> well sampling.

The sample will be delivered to a State Certified Laboratory. Samples will be <br /> kept on ice and/or refrigerated continuously for shipment to the Laboratory und <br /> chain-of-custody. The sealed sample will only be opened by Laboratory personnel <br /> who will perform the chemical analysis. The samples will be analyzed according to <br /> -- the approved EPA Method and storage for that requested analysis. <br /> WES Sampling Protocols <br /> last rev. 5/96 Page 3 <br />
