Re: Work Plan for Site Assessment
Tosco Station #1270
5634 Stine Road
Bakersfield, California
Dear Mr. Whiting:
This letter has been prepared by SECOR International Incorporated (SECOR) on behalf
of Tosco Corporation (Tosco), a subsidiary of Phillips Petroleum Company, and
presents a work plan for site assessment at the site referenced above (Figures 1 and 2).
The work plan is being submitted in response to Regional Water Quality Control
Board's (RWQCB) letter dated June 3, 2002 (Attachment A). The purpose of this
assessment is to delineate the vertical extent of petroleum hydrocarbons in soil b~neath
the former underground storage tanks (USTs). This work plan also includes a b,nef
discussion of site background and previous investigations, proposed scope of )(1ork,
quality assurance plan, health and safety plan, and schedule. .
SITE BACKGROUND
The site is located at the northeast comer of Harris Road and Stine Road in Bakersfield,
California. The site is currently occupied by an active gasoline service station and
Circle K store with fueling facilities that include one 20,000-gallon gasoline and one
12,000-gallon gasoline USTs, and associated prpduct lines and dispensers.
The former fueling facility consisted of three 1O,000-gallon gasoline USTs and one
dispenser island that were located in the southwest portion of the site (Attachment B,
Figure 2). Initial site assessment was conducted in December 1996. Six soil
borings/vapor wells: SE-1 through SE-5 and SE-7, were installed around the former
UST. Total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline(TPHg), benzene, and MtBE were
detected in the soil boring samples collected down to 22.5 feet below grade surface with
a maximum concentration of 3 mg/kg, 0.2 mglkg, and 9 mglkg, respectively. Copies of
the soil sample data table, site plan, cross sections, and one soil boring log are included
in Attachment B.

The USTs, dispensers, and associated piping were removed and replaced in 1998. The
two new USTs were installed in common tank pit located in the southeast portion of the
site. Following removal of the USTs, soil samples were collected from beneath the
USTs at depths ranging from 16 to 20 feet below ground surface (bgs) and beneath the
dispenser at 2 and 6 feet bgs. Approximately 150 cubic yards of impacted soil were
excavated and disposed of off-site. TPHg, BTEX, and MtBE were reported in soil
samples collected from beneath the UST at maximum concentrations of 15,300 mglkg,
30.5 mglkg, and 281 mglkg, respectively. Soil analytical results and a map with sample
locations are included in Attachment B.
A request for site closure was submitted on February 1, 1999 to the City of Bakersfield-
Fire Department(CBFD). In a letter dated July 6, 1999, the CBFD determined that
corrective action had been completed, and that no further investigation or remedial
action was required. The RWQCB reviewed the request for closure and, in letter dated
June 3, 2002, requested a work plan be submitted to define the vertical extent of TPHg
and MtBE in soil underlying the former USTs.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work for this site assessment includes drilling three soil to borings to
delineate the vertical extent petroleum hydrocarbons in soil around the former USTs
location. Proposed boring locations are provided on Figure 2. The specific scopes of
work are discussed below:
· Site Safety Plan. As required by the Occupational Health and Safety
Administration (OSHA) Standard "Hazardous Waste Operations and
Emergency Response" guidelines (29 CPR 1910.120), and by
California Occupational Health and Safety Administration
(Cal-OSHA) "Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency
Response" guidelines (CCR Title 8, Section 5192), SECOR has
prepared a site-specific Health and Safety Plan (HASP) that is
provided as Attachment C. The HASP will be reviewed by field staff
and contractors before beginning field operations at the site.
· Permitting. The applicable permits for soil borings will be obtained
from CBFD prior to drilling activities.
· Soil Borings. Three soil borings will be drilled at the locations shown
on Figure 2. Soil borings will be drilled until two consecutive
subjectively "clean" samples collected at 5-foot intervals are
encountered beneath an impacted soil zone. The depth of these
borings is estimated to be approximately 50 feet below ground surface
(bgs). Based on regional groundwater gradient maps, groundwater is

approximately 160 feet bgs (Kern County Water Agency) and is not
anticipated to be encountered during this investigation.
. Soil Selection and Analysis. Soil samples will be collected at 5-foot
intervals and will be sent under chain-of-custody procedures to a
California state-certified laboratory. Soil showing positive readings on a
PID or at least one sample for every ten feet of drilling will be analyzed
for TPHg, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, total xylenes (collectively
BTEX), and MtBE by EPA Method 8260B, single run. Additionally,
select soil samples will also be analyzed for total lead by EP A Method
6010 and fuel oxygenates MtBE, TBA, DIPE, EtBE, TAME, 1,2-DCA,
EDB, and ethanol by EP A Method 8260b, single run.
. Report. A report will be prepared after completion of necessary
fieldwork. The report will include soil boring logs, soil analytical
results, chain-of-custody documentation, and conclusions.
Field and laboratory procedures and a quality assurance plan are included in
Attachment D.
SCHEDULE
SECOR is prepared to initiate fieldwork within four to six weeks following approval of
this work plan by the RWQCB and issuance of soil boring permits for the CBFD.
SECOR will prepare a report including soil boring logs, soil analytical results, and
summarizing the investigation within four to eight weeks following completion of the
assessment.

This Health and Safety Plan has been written for the use of SECOR and its employees. It may
also be used as a guidance document by properly trained and experienced SECOR
subcontractors. However, SECOR does not guarantee the health or safety of any person entering
these sites.
Due to the potential hazardous nature of these sites and the activities occurring thereon, it is not
possible to discover, evaluate, and provide protection for all possible hazards which may be
encountered. Strict adherence to the health and safety guidelines set forth herein will reduce, but
not eliminate, the potential for injury. The health and safety guidelines in this Plan were
prepared specifically for this site and should not be used on any other site without prior research
by trained health and safety specialists.
SECOR claims no responsibility for its use by others. The Plan is written for the specific site
conditions, purposes, dates, and personnel specified and must be amended if these conditions
change. This plan will provide useful infonnation to subcontractors which will assist them in
developing their own HASP, but it should notbe construed as a substitute for their own plan.
Subcontractors should sign this plan as an acknowledgement of hazard infonnation and notice
that this Plan does not satisfy their requirement to develop their own plan.

Detailed List of Steps with Hazard Assessments and Precautions
Field staff must review job-specific work plan and coordinate with project manager to verify that all up-front logistics are completed prior to starting work including, but not limited to, permitting,
access agreements, and notification to required contacts (e.g. site managers, inspectors, clients, subcontractors, etc.). A tailgate safety meeting must be performed and documented at the beginning of
each workday. Safe Performance Self Assessment (SPSA) procedures must be used throu,ghout the project. Weather conditions (heat, cold, rain,lightning) must also be considered.

FIELD PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES
AND QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN
General procedures used by SECOR International Inc. (SECOR) in site assessments for drilling
exploratory brings, collecting samples, installing monitoring wells, sampling monitor wells,
analytical procedures, and assessment of data are described herein. These general procedures are
used to provide consistent and reproducible results. However, some procedures may be modified
based on site conditions. In addition, this attachment presents a quality assurance plan adopted in
conducting the activities described here.
PRE-FIELD WORK ACTIVITIES
Health and Safety Plan
Fieldwork performed by SECOR at the site is conducted according to guidelines established in a
Site Health and Safety Plan (SHSP). The SHSP is a document which describes the hazards that
may be encountered in the field and specifies protective equipment, work procedures, and
emergency information. A copy of the SHSP is at the site and available for reference by
appropriate parties during work at the site.
Locatine: Undere:round Utilities
Prior to commencement of any work that is to be below surface grade, the location of the
excavation , boring, etc., is marked with white paint as required by law. An underground
locating service such as Underground Service Alert (USA) is contacted. The locating company
contacts the owners of the various utilities in the vicinity of the site to mark the locations of their
underground utilities. Any invasive work is preceded by hand augering to a minimum depth of
five feet below surface grade to avoid contact with underground utilities.
).
FIELD METHODS AND PROCEDURES
Drillinl!
Soil borings will be drilled using truck-mounted, hollow stern auger drill rig. Soil samples for
logging will be obtained from auger-return materials and by advancing a modified California
split-spoon sampler equipped with brass or stainless steel liners into undisturbed soil beyond the
tip of the auger. Soils will be logged by a geologist according to the Unified Soil Classification
System and standard geological techniques.
Soil Sampling equipment will be cleaned with detergent water solution (Liqonox or TCP), rinsed
with clean water, and equipped with clean liners between sampling intervals. A consulting
geologist will oversee a drilling company steam clean augers and samplers between each boring
to reduce the possibility of cross contamination. Steam cleaning effluent will be contained in 55-
gallon drums and temporarily stored onsite. The disposal of the effluent will be the
responsibility of Atlantic Richfield Company.
Soil Classification
Samples will be classified onsite by the field geologist in accordance with the Unified Soil
Classification System. Representative portions of the samples will be retained for further
examination and for verification of field classification. Logs of the borings indicating the depth
and identification of the various strata and pertinent infonnation will be prepared for the final
written report.
Soil Sample Screenin2
Soil samples selected for chemical analysis' will be determined from a head-space analysis using
a PID or an FID. The soil will be places in a Ziploc®- type reseal able plastic bag and allowed to
reach ambient temperature, at which time the PID probe will be inserted into the bag. The total
volatile hydrocarbons present are detected by the PID and reported in parts per million by volume
(ppmv).
A PID is calibrated by entering the known concentration (in ppmv) of a containerized gas
(typically isobutylene) into the display function of the PID machine. The containerized gas
release through an inert (plastic) tube into the sensory received of the PID. The PID nonnalizes
its volatile organic compounds (VOC) detection sensors to match the known concentration of the
gas being input into the PID machine.
Soil Samnle Collection
During drilling, soil samples will be collected in clean brass, two by six inch tubes, The tubes
will be set in an18-Ìnch-Iong split-barrel sampler. The sampler will be conveyed to the bottom of
the borehole attached to a wire-line hammer device drill rig. When possible, the split-barrel
sampler will be driven its entire length, either hydraulically or by repeatedly pounding a 140-
pound hammer using a 30-inch drop. The number of drops (blows) used to drive the sampler
will be recorded on the boring log. The sampler will be extracted from the borehole, and the
tubes containing the soil samples will be removed. Upon removal, the ends of the lowermost
tube will be sealed with Teflon TM sheets and plastic caps. Soil Samples for chemical analysis will
be labeled, placed on ice, and delivered to a state-certified analytical laboratory, along with the
appropriate chain-of-custody documentation.
Label information includes a unique sample identification number, job identification number,
date, and time. After labeling, all soil and water samples are placed in a Ziploc® type bag and
placed in an ice chest cooled to approximately 4°C. Upon arriving at SECOR's office, these
samples are transferred to a locked refrigerator cooled to approximately 40 Celsius. Chemical
preservation is controlled by the required analysis and is noted on the chain-of custody.
The number of samples collected to evaluate impact to soil is determined by the overseeing
registered geologist. This information and rationale is typically presented in the work plan.
Stockpiled Drill Cuttin2s and Soil Samplin2
Soil generated during drilling operations will be stockpiled onsite. The stockpile will be set on
and covered by plastic sheeting in a manner to prevent rain water from coming in contact with
the soil. Prior to collècting soil samples, SECOR personnel will calculate the approximate
volume of soil in the stockpile. The stockpile will then be divided into 50 cubic yard (volume)
sections, if warranted, for sampling. Soil samples will be collected at 0.5 and 2 feet below the
surface of the stockpile. Four soil samples will be collected from the stockpile and composited
into one sample by the laboratory prior to analysis. The soil samples will be collected in clean
brass, two by six inch tubes using a hand driven sampling device. To reduce the potential for
cross-contamination between samples, the sampler will be cleaned between each sampling event.
Upon recovery, the sample container will be sealed at each end with Teflon™ sheeting and plastic
caps to minimize the potential of volatilization and cross-contamination prior to chemicalqanalysis. The soil sample will be labeled, placed in an ice chest cooled to 40 Celsius, and
delivered to a state-certified analytical laboratory, along with the appropriate chain-of custody
documentation.
<.
Sample Identification and Chain-of Custody
Sample identification and chain-of-custody procedures document sample possession from the
time of collection to ultimate disposal. Each sample container submitted for analysis has a label
affixed to it to identify the job number, sampler, date and time of the sample collection, and the
sample number unique to that sample. This information, in addition to a description of the
sample, field measurements made, sampling methodology, names of onsite personnel, and any
other pertinent field observations, are recorded on the borehole log or in the field records. A
chain-of-custody form is used to record possession of the sample from the time of collection to
its arrival at the laboratory. When samples are shipped, the person in custody of them
relinquishes the samples by signing the chain-of custody form and noting the time.
Monitorin2 Well Installation
Monitoring wells will be completed by installing one two-inch-diameter Schedule 40 polyvinyl
chloride (PVC) casing. The two-inch diameter monitoring wells will be installed using 8-inch
diameter hollow stem augers.
Monitoring wells will be constructed using threaded, factory-perforated and blank Schedule 40
PVC. The perforated interval consists of slotted casing, 0.01 or 0.02 inches wide by 1.5-inch
long slots, with 42 slots per foot. The screened interval wíll allow for seasonal fluctuation in
water level and for monitoring floating product. A threaded PVC cap is secured to the bottom of
the casing. The well casing is thoroughly washed and/or steam cleaned, or may be purchased as
pre-cleaned, prior to completion.
A filter pack of graded sand will be placed in the annular space between the PVC casing and the
borehole wall. Sand will be added to the borehole through the hollow stem of the augers provide
a uniform filter pack around the casing and to stabilize the borehole. The sand pack will be
placed to a maximum of 2 feet abÇ>ve the screens, followed by a minimum I-foot seal consisting
of bentonite pellets.
Cement grout containing 5 percent bentonite will be placed above the bentonite seal to the grout
surface. A concrete traffic-rated vault box will be installed over the monitoring wells. A water
tight locking cap will be installed over the top of the well casing. Monitoring well elevations
will be surveyed by a state-certified land surveyor to the nearest 0.01 vertical feet relative to
mean sea level (MSL). Horizontal coordinates of the wells will also be obtained at the same
time.
EQuipment Cleanin2
Sample bottles, caps, and septa used in sampling for volatile and semi volatile organics will be
triple rinsed with high-purity deionized water. After being rinsed, sample bottles will be dried
overnight at a temperature of 200°C. Sample caps and septa will be dried overnight at a
temperature of 60°C. Sample bottles, caps, and septa will be protected from solvent contact
between drying and actual use at the sampling site. Sampling containers will be used only once
and discarded after analysis is complete.
Plastic bottles and caps used in sampling for metals will be soaked overnight in a 1 percent nitric
acid solution. Next, the bottles and caps will be triple rinsed with deionized water. Finally, the
bottles and caps will be air dried before being used at the site. Plastic bottles and caps will be
constructed of linear polyethylene or polypropylene. Sampling containers will be used only once
and di~carded after analysis is complete. Glass and plastic bottles used by SECOR to collect
groundwater samples are supplied by the laboratory.
Before the sampling event is started, equipment that will be placed in the well, or will come in
contact with the groundwater, will be disassembled and cleaned thoroughly with detergent water,
and then steam cleaned with deionized water. Any parts that may absorb contaminants, such as
plastic pump valves, etc., will be cleaned as described above or replaced. During field sampling,
equipment surfaces that are placed in the well or contact groundwater will be steam cleaned with
deionized water before the next well is purged or sampled.
Soil samples are collected in new, pre-cleaned brass liners. These sample liners are either used
by themselves, or are inserted in the sampling equipment. Soil samples are not collect with or in
reusable equipment.
Cone Penetrometer Tool (CPr) Testine;
The CPT method consists of advancing a cone-tipped cylindrical probe (1.7 inches in diameter)
into the ground while simultaneously measuring resistance to the penetration. The CPT method
determines soil lithology by comparing the force (cone bearing pressure) required to advance the
probe (Qt) to the friction ration (Rf) (Rf equals sleeve friction [Fs] divided by the probe tip load,
times the penetration pore pressure [Ud]). Computer generated CPT logs will be plotted in the
filed, providing the field representative a graphical log of subsurface soil lithology. A CPT test
data report, which will include logs of all CPT technique, will submitted with the final report.
CPT testing will be perfonned in accordance with American Society of Testing and Materials
(ASTM) Method D3441.
The cone testing will be perfonned inside of a grout collar installed at the ground surface. The
grout collar will allow the CPT contractor to backfill the boring as the steel rods are retracted
from the hole. Continuous grouting will prevent cross-contamination of water bearing zones that
can occur through an open borehole. The boring will be backfilled to surface grade. An asphalt
patch will be placed over the borehole.
Direct Push Technology. Water Sampling
A well-known example of the direct push technology for water sampling if the Hydropunch®.
For the purpose of this field method, the tenn hydropunch will be used instead of direct push
technology for water sampling. Hydropunch samples will be collected by placing a disposable
steel tip on the end of a two-inch diameter rod containing five feet of disposable I-inch diameter
slotted PVC casing. The sampling rods are pushed to the desire depths using the CPT truck.
Depth discreet samples are obtained by retracting the rods four feet, exposing the screen at the
desired sampling interval. Samples are collected by lowering a bailer inside the steel rods and
recovering groundwater. Groundwater is poured from the bailer into laboratory supplied glass
vials. The water samples will be labeled, placed on ice, and delivered to a state-certified
laboratory along with the appropriate chain-of-custody documentation. The inside and outside of
the two-inch diameter steel rods are steam cleaned between sampling events to prevent cross-
contaminating groundwater samples.
Soil Sampling
Soil samples will be collected at the CPT locations using a retractable sampler equipped with two
1.25-inch by 6-inch brass sleeves. Soil sampling is conducted by advancing the sampler to the
top of the desired sampling depth. The CPT operator subsequently retracts the rods
approximately 12 inches, exposing the brass sleeves in the borehole. The sampler is then driven
into the native soil.
Groundwater and Liauid-Phase Petroleum Hvdrocarbon Depth Assessment
A waterlhydrocarbon interface probe is used to assess the liquid-phase petroleum hydrocarbon
(LPH) thickness, if present, and a water level indicator is used to measure the groundwater depth
in monitoring wells that do not contain LPH. Depth to groundwater or LPH is measured from a
datum point at the of each monitoring well casing. The datum point is typically a notch cut in the
north side of the casing edge. If a water level indicator is used, the tip is subjectively analyzed
for hydrocarbon sheen.
Subiective Analvsis of Groundwater
Prior to purging, a water sample is collected from the monitoring well for subjective assessment.
The sample is retrieved by gently lowering a clean, disposable bailer to approximately one-half
the bailer length past the air/liquid interface. The bailer is then retrieved, and the sample
contained within the bailer is examined for floating LPH and the appearance of a LPH sheen.
Monitorin2 Well Pur2Ín2 and Samplin2
If the depth to groundwater is above the top of the screens of the monitoring well, then the wells
are purged. Monitoring wells are purged using an electrical submersible pump or bailer until pH,
temperature, and conductivity of the [urge water has stabilized and a minimum of three well
volumes of water have been removed. Wells are typically purged at a rate of I gallon per minute
(gpm), though will not exceed 2 gpm. If three well volumes can not be removed in one half
hour's time the well is allowed to recharge to 80% of the original level. After recharging, a
groundwater sample is then removed from each of the wells using a disposable bailer.
Groundwater purged from the monitoring wells typically transported to a holding facility in West
Sacramento.
A Teflon bailer will be the only equipment used for well sampling. When samples for volatile
organic analysis are being collected, the flow of groundwater from the bailer will be regulated to
minimize turbulence and aeration. Glass bottles of at least 40-milliliters volume and fitted with
Teflon TM_ lined septa will be used is sampling volatile organics. These bottles will be filled
completely to prevent air from remaining in the bottle. A positive meniscus forms when the
bottle is full. A convex Teflon™ septum will be placed over the positive meniscus to eliminate
air. After the bottle is capped, it is inverted and tapped to verify that it contains no air bubbles.
The sample containers for other parameters will be filled, filtered as required, and capped.
The water sample is collected, labeled, and handled according to the Quality Assurance Plan.
Water generated during the monitoring events is disposed of at approved water recycling
facilities.
Quality Assurance Plan
Procedures to provide data quality have been established and documented so that conditions
adverse to quality, such as deficiencies, deviations, defective material, services, and/or
equipment, can be identified and corrected.
Internal Qualitv Assurance Checks
Internal quality assurance procedures will be used to provide reliability of monitoring and
measurement of data. Both field and laboratory quality assurance checks as listed below will be
used to evaluate the reliability of sampling and analysis results. Tables 1 through 7 present data
qualìty indicators (DQI) used by the laboratory to meet internal quality assurance procedures.
Internal quality assurance procedures generally include:
Laboratory Quality Assurance
·
Documentation of instrument performance checks,
Documentation of instrument calibration,
·
·
Documentation of traceability of instrument standards, samples, and data,
and
· Documentation of analytical and QC methodology (QC methodology
includes use of spiked samples, duplicate samples, split samples, use of reference
blanks, and checked standards to check method accuracy and precision).
Field Quality Assurance
SECOR has developed field DQIs which are attached. In addition to the DQIs the
following internal checks will also be conducted:
. Documentation of sample preservation and transportation, and
. Documentation of field instrument calibration and irregularities III
performance.
General Sample Collection and Handlin2 Procedures
Proper collection and handling are essential to ensure the quality of the sample. Each sample is
collected in a suitable container, preserved correctly for the intended analysis, and stored prior to
analysis for no longer than the maximum allowable holding time. Details on the procedures for
collection and handling of samples used on this project can be found in this section and in the
attached DQI tables.
Soil and Water Sample Labelin2 and Preservation
Label information includes a unique sample identification number, job identification number,
date, and time. After labeling, all soil and water samples are placed in a Ziploc® type bag and
placed in an ice chest cooled to approximately 4°C. Chemical preservation is controlled by the
required analysis and is noted on the chain-of-custody form. Trip blanks supplied by the
laboratory accompany the groundwater sample containers and groundwater samples.
Upon recovery, the sample container is sealed to minimize the potential volatilization and cross-
contamination prior to chemical analysis. Soil sampling tubes are typically closed at each end
with Teflon TM sheeting and plastic caps. The sample is then placed in a Ziploc® type bag and
sealed. The sample is labeled and refrigerated at approximately 4° Celsius for delivery, under
strict chain-of-custody, to the analytical laboratory.
Chain of Custody
The chain-of-custody form is used to record possession of the sample from the time of collection
to its arrival at the laboratory. When samples are shipped, the person in custody of them
relinquishes the samples by signing the chain-of-custody form and noting the time. The sample-
control officer at the laboratory verifies sample integrity and conforms that the samples are
collected in the proper containers, preserved correctly, and contain adequate volumes for
analysis. These conditions are noted on a Laboratory Sample Receipt Checklist (see attached)
which will be included in the laboratory report.
If these conditions are met, each sample is assigned a unique log number for identification
throughout analysis and reporting. The log number is recorded on the chain-of-custody fonn and
in the legally-required log book maintained by the laboratory. The sample description, date
received, client's name, and other relevant infonnation is recorded.
Analvtical Methods
Soil and groundwater samples collected during exploratory sire investigation activities and
development and sampling of monitoring wells, will be analyzed under a standard lO-day
turnaround time. Samples are analyzed using analytical methods outlined in EP A Manual SW
846 and approved by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board- Central Coast
Region in the Leaking Underground Fuel Tanks (LUFT) manual and appendices.
Samples collected during the investigation of petroleum hydrocarbon impacted sites are typically
analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons ([CZ-C12 range] TPHG by U.S. EPA Method 8015.
Benzene, Toluene, ethyl benzene, and total xylenes (BTEX) are analyzed using U.S. EPA Method
8020/8021.
The attached DQI tables present the state-certified laboratory's calibration and quality assurance
procedures for the above mentioned analytical methods. Internal laboratory quality assurance
checks will be the responsibility of the contract laboratories. Data and reports submitted by field
personnel and the contract laboratory will be reviewed and maintained in the project files.
Data Review and Verification
Data quality indicator parameters will be evaluated by the contract state-certified laboratory
against the frequency and acceptance criteria described in the Lab DQI Tables. Data that are out
of compliance with the laboratory criteria will be flagged in the laboratory analytical report and
will be identified in the report summary table. SECOR will evaluate the field procedures against
the frequency and acceptance criteria identified in the field DQI, Table. The overseeing
registered professional will review field documentation (boring logs, sampling sheets, Chain-of-
Custody documents, lab sample receipt fonns, etc.,) and identify relevant issues/problems that
effect data and overall applicability.

1. Do not evaluate based on RPDs.
2. Ifresult of(+) result ~ 2X QL, qualify (J or VJ)
results in both samples.
3. Ifresult of(+) result < 2X QL, use professional
judgment to accept (A) or qualify (J or UJ) results,
taking into consideration the increased variability of
data near QL.
4. If precision data for the field duplicate pair,
surrogate compound recoveries, and laboratory
MSIMSD indicate an extremely heterogeneous matrix
at the site or potential sampling error, professional
judgment should be utilized to apply field duplicate
actions to an samoles of the same matrix.
Review offield NA Professional Judgment I. Accept (A), qualify (1), or reject (R) results, as
noteslboring logs, chain appropriate.
of custody 2. Examples of situations where qualification or
documentation, and rejection of results should be considered include, but
laboratory sample receipt are not limited to: volatile analysis of coarse-grained
documentation ,- materials, compromised sample containers, sample
headspace, etc.
