Sampling and Analysis Plan - Operations & Post-Operations <br />• site recorded in a bound field notebook. The GPS location will be affirmed during subsequent <br />sampling events. <br />This section describes the general surface-water sampling and flow-measurement methods to be <br />used, including monitoring schedule, monitoring equipment, collection procedures, <br />decontamination procedures, and flow measurement procedures. <br />2.1 Monitoring Schedule <br />Surface-water sampling will be performed quarterly during operations, quarterly for a one-year <br />period following operations, and annually thereafter for an additional two-year period. <br />Monitoring parameters and frequency may be adjusted as appropriate for long-term or other <br />potential monitoring programs based on the results of the baseline, operations, and post- <br />operations phases of the project. If no flow is present during a sampling event, the field records <br />will indicate a "no flow" condition. <br />• 2.2 Monitoring Equipment <br />The monitoring equipment typically will include the following items: field instruments for the <br />measurement of pH, conductivity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, oxidation-reduction potential, <br />and stream flow; laboratory -supplied sample bottles; sample labels; sample container (insulated <br />cooler); ice; sample preservatives; peristaltic pump; sterile pump tubing; 0.45 micron filters; <br />bound field logbook; Surface-Water Monitoring Forms; chain-of-custody forms; and all other <br />items necessary for sample collection and documentation per industry -accepted protocols. <br />Stream discharge (flow) measurement will be conducted by the use of volumetric collection <br />(bucket and stop watch); or with a mechanical propeller-type, electronic, or electromagnetic flow <br />meter. Other methods and equipment may be used as necessary. <br />2.3 Sample Collection Procedure <br />A unique sample designation will be designated for each sample station. Each sample collected <br />will be labeled to show the company name, sample identification (site name), date and time, <br />collector initials, preservatives used, and general analysis required. The collection date will be <br />0 American Shale Oil, LLC 2
