Field Sampling Plan. The Field Sampling Plan (FSP) addresses all sample collection activities. The FSP must be written so that a field sampling team unfamiliar with the project would be able to gather the samples and field information required. Respondents shall develop the FSP in accordance with Guidance for Conducting Remedial Investigations and Feasibility Studies, EPA/540/G 89/004 (Oct. 1988).
Field Sampling Plan. The field sampling plan (FSP) shall be written so that experienced personnel unfamiliar with the project will be able to gather the samples and field information required. The FSP shall be prepared in accordance with applicable RI/FS Guidance
Field Sampling Plan. The Field Sampling Plan (FSP) addresses all sample collection activities. The FSP must be written so that a field sampling team unfamiliar with the project would be able to gather the samples and field information required. Respondents shall develop the FSP in accordance with Guidance for Conducting Remedial Investigations and Feasibility Studies, EPA/540/G 89/004 (Oct. 1988). The description of data gaps as required in ¶ 3.2(a)(1) will serve as the basis for the sample collection activities in the FSP. The lateral and vertical extent of contamination exceeding RALs and PTW thresholds will be delineated based on 150 by 150-foot core spacing density and will start from the SMAs identified in the evaluation and summary of all existing data set forth in ¶ 3.2(a)(1) and extend as needed to delineate the full extent of area exceeding RALs and/or PTW thresholds. The lateral and vertical extent of contamination into the navigation channel is not bound by the Project Area boundary on that side, but rather must be delineated also based on 150 by 150-foot core spacing density but to no more than half the distance across the channel, and will start from the SMAs identified in the evaluation and summary of all existing data set forth in ¶ 3.2(a)(1).

The description of data gaps as required in ¶ 3.2(a)(1) will serve as the basis for the sample collection activities in the FSP. The lateral and vertical extent of contamination exceeding RALs and PTW thresholds will be delineated to the Project Area boundaries (the navigation channel between River Miles 5.1 and 6.5) based on 150-foot core spacing density and will start from the SMAs identified in the evaluation and summary of all existing data set forth in Section 3.2(a)(1). If the contiguous lateral and vertical extent of contamination has not been delineated at the downstream boundary (River Mile 5.1 of the navigation channel), the area of delineation in the navigation channel will be extended to no farther downstream than River Mile 4.8
Field Sampling Plan. Section 1 Specific 1 The introduction states that the PWCM data will be used to establish baseline conditions for the IR. Please note that additional sampling events are planned to establish baseline conditions for the IR. The text will be revised to state that baseline chemical conditions will be established during the small and high volume chemical water column monitoring programs. The response is accepted.
Field Sampling Plan. Table 2 Specific 1 Table 2 includes a cross-channel transect at RM 15.8. Elsewhere in the FSP and QAPP, only 4 cross-channel transects are described (RM 8.4, RM 10.2, RM 12, and RM 13.5). Either revise Table 2 to delete the extra transect or revise the relevant sections of the QAPP to include a RM 15.8 transect. 17 Field Sampling Plan, Figure 2a Specific 6 The cross-channel sampling locations shown on Figure 2a are numbered beginning on the east side of the river, while the numbering shown on Figures 2b-2d begin numbering on the west side of the river. Please revise to be consistent.
Field Sampling Plan. Quality Assurance Sampling and Analysis Plan (FSP/QASP): Respondent shall develop vertical and lateral characterization and verification sampling utilizing an appropriate statistical approach and a sufficient radiological scanning approach. An approach consistent with MARSSIM should be used. Visual Sampling Plan software can be used to properly document that soil sampling approach is statistically representative.
Field Sampling Plan. Respondent shall submit a Field Sampling Plan to EPA for review and approval as required by the SOW and in accordance with the schedule developed pursuant to Section Il ofthe SOW
Field Sampling Plan. The FSP describes all fieldwork and the standard procedures that will be used to collect samples at the Site. The FSP shall address the SRI/FS objectives and the NCP. The FSP shall detail the sampling and data gathering methods used on a project. The FSP should be written so that a field sampling team unfamiliar with the Site would be able to gather the samples and field information required. Guidance for the selection of field methods, sampling procedures, and custody can be acquired from the Compendium of Superfund Field Operations Methods (OSWER Directive 9355.0-12, EPA/540/P-87/001), which is a compilation of demonstrated field techniques that have been used during remedial response activities at hazardous waste sites. The FSP shall supplement the Site-specific sample collection information in the QAPP and shall include the following information only if the QAPP does not contain the information (this information is provided in Sections 5 through 10 of the Region I, EPA-New England Compendium of Quality Assurance Project Plan Requirements and Guidance, October 1999 Final (“Compendium”)):
