Following our telephone conversation on February 2, 1988, a second <br /> file search was conducted and on the same day I telephoned California Water <br /> Labs and requested a search for the documents in question from their files. <br /> The search produced the analytical results for the October 22, 1987 sampling <br /> and a chain-of-custody document for the August 14, 1987 sampling (attached) . <br /> The chain-of-custody documents for the sampling on July 24, 1987 and <br /> September 10, 1987 were not produced. I was informed by California Water <br /> Labs that no chain-of-custody was generated for these two sampling events by <br /> the sampler. <br /> As we discussed, the results of the initial ground wPter sampling from the <br /> new monitoring system represents a compilation of data which was gathered <br /> over a over a wide period of time and plagued by apparent deficiencies in <br /> the sampling protocol. In the future we will make every attempt to correct <br /> these deficiencies by providing adequate supervision of sampling events and <br /> ensuring that sampling protocol and instructions for sample analysis are <br /> followed. Your patience in this matter is appreciated. <br /> At your eariest convenience, please inform us of the Board's evaluation of <br /> the significance of these initial laboratory results as they relate to the <br /> newly adopted Waste Discharge Requirements ground water monitoring program. <br /> It is our intent to resolve any deficiencies in the detection monitoring <br /> program in advance of its implementation. <br /> 2068 Lincoln Avenue 9 San Jose, California 95125 • (408) 978-1514 <br />
