<br />of the appropriate containers and preservatives foY specific <br />' parameters is presented in Table 5. <br />' 3.2.3 Samule Collection and HandlinE; The field sampling personnel will be <br />responsible for complete documentation of sampling, wh~.ch will be <br />' kept on the Field Data Collection Sheet, in ink, for the <br />preservation of all samples and for maintaining chain~of-custody <br />records for all samples until they are shipped to the laboratory <br />' for analysis. <br />3.2.4 Surface Water SamQlinE Method: Samples will be collected after the <br />procedures described in Section 3.2.1 are completed. Samples will <br />' be taken using a large, clean bucket capable of holding a volume in <br />excess of that of the entire volume of the water sample to be <br />' collected (2.5 gallons). In this way, the entire water sample can <br />be collected at one time and split into the individual bottles for <br />' specific analyses. The bucket should be rinsed several times prior <br />to obtaining the sample. The sample should be taken from the main <br />flow of the stream, and not from side eddies or stagnant water near <br />' the banks. <br />' Care should be taken to prevent sampling apparatus from coming into <br />contact with any contaminated surface. The collected water sample <br />' will be poured from the bucket directly into bottles previously <br />prepared and supplied by the laboratory. <br />After each use, the bucket will be cleaned using the procedures as <br />outlined in this protocol. The cleaning procedure will be quality- <br />' controlled as outlined under the "Field Quality Control" section (Section <br />3.3). <br />1 <br />Following a sampling series of no more than 5 samples, a rinse <br />' blank will be collected from the bucket, running laboratory- <br />provided deionized, distilled water throughout the enure bucket. <br />-21- <br /> <br />
