Scope of Services Page 3 • Soil samples will be screened in the field for the presence of organic vapors using a hand-held portable photoionisation detector(PID). In general, the sample which displays the highest PID reading or the sample from the water table interface in each probe location will be submitted to the laboratory for analysis. Other factors influencing soil sample selection include visual and olfactory indications such as staining and strong odors. • A ground water sample, if encountered,will be collected from the base of each probe. • All probing equipment which comes in contact with soil will be decontaminated prior to the next use. All soil sampling apparatus will be decontaminated between sample locations to reduce the risk of potential cross-contamination. • Each probe location will be restored to near original conditions upon completion. Sample Analysis Soil and three ground water samples will be submitted for analytical testing. The samples will be submitted to an independent laboratory for analysis. The samples will be analyzed for the following parameters: • Gasoline Range Organics (GRO) • Diesel Range Organics (DRO) • Benzene, Ethyl Benzene, Toluene, and Xylene(BETX) Report The report will summarize the results of the assessment, including documentation of information sources, findings and conclusions, and our professional opinion of the impact of any recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property. Two original reports will be provided. Additional report copies and special distribution requirements can be accommodated for an additional cost. Scheduling Services will be initiated immediately upon receipt of authorization. Peer will provide a report within three to four weeks of project authorization. Should you require a shorter turn around time additional fees may be required.
