SOP No. 210 <br /> Page 3 of 7 <br /> 1. color; <br /> 2. density; <br /> 3. moisture content; <br /> 4. geologic modifiers or classifications; <br /> 5. major constituent—capitalized; <br /> 6. minor constituent(s); and <br /> 7. geologic description (in parentheses). <br /> Example: Tan, loose, wet, stratified, medium SAND, little fine sand, trace coarse sand, <br /> trace silt(Till). <br /> Before beginning,ensure that PPE has been donned and air monitoring is being performed <br /> per the HASP. When logging a soil sample collected from a split spoon where more than <br /> one soil type is present,describe each one separately,using additional line(s)on the boring <br /> log form. Start the description from the top of the split spoon, and log each change in <br /> stratigraphy in sequence to the bottom of the spoon. Provide an interval or length(i.e., 0- <br /> 0.5 ft.:)at the beginning of each separate sequence description,followed by a colon. Draw <br /> a line below the bottom of the complete sample description. <br /> 2.2 Color <br /> The main color value should be stated, along with an appropriate modifier. Examples <br /> include: light brown, dark brown, reddish brown, and brown. The presence of mottling <br /> should be included in the description,where present. <br /> Example: Gray, slightly mottled, dense, damp, poorly sorted angular fine to medium <br /> SAND, some silt, trace angular coarse sand, trace clay(lodgement glacial till). <br />
