' Draft: April 5, 1999 Page C-6 <br />C.3.5.1 Sample Identification Number <br />Unique sample numbers will be assigned to each sample. <br />' C.3.5.2 Sample Labels/Tags <br />All samples collected in the field will have sample labels/tags attached to or fixed azound the <br />sample containers, or be inscribed by printing using a waterproof black mazking pen. The label <br />should be protected from damage. Sample identification will be placed on the containers so as not <br />to obscure any QA/QC lot numbers. Field identification will be sufficient to enable cross-reference <br />with the project logbook. All samples will be subject to the same custodial procedures and <br />' documentation. To minimize sample container handling, labels/tags may be partially filled out prior <br />to sample collection. The sample label/tag will include the following information: <br />' - Sample number <br />' Sampler's name <br />- Date and time of collection <br />' - Analysis required <br />- Preservation <br />' C.3.6 Sample Filtration <br />Samples for dissolved metals analyses will be filtered during the field sampling event by <br />' using a disposable filter appazatus and peristaltic or hand vacuum pump. (Or, a disposable inline <br />filter may be connected to a sampling tap on the pump dischazge line.) <br />The following procedure should be used for filtering samples collected with the peristaltic <br />pump or hand vacuum pump: <br />t - Assemble filter device according to manufacturer's instructions. <br />- Filter sample by pouring sample in the top portion of filter unit. Or, if a submersible <br />pump is used, samples may be collected using a disposable filter unit connected to <br />a sampling tap on the pump dischazge line. Duplicate samples can be collected from <br />' the same filter unit. <br />- Transfer filtered sample to appropriate preserved (HNO,) sample bottle(s). <br />1 If samples contain a lot of sediment, the use of a second filter unit may be necessary. <br />' Dispose of used filtration unit appropriately. <br />' Agapito Associates, Inc. <br />
