Sample Custody. Chain-of-custody procedures will be used to control and maintain sample custody, whereby the sample possession and handling will be tracked from the source (field) to final disposition at the laboratory. A sample is considered to be in a person's custody if one of the following applies: ■ It is in the person's possession, ■ It is in the person's view after being in his or her possession; or ■ It was in that person's possession and that person has secured it in a vehicle or room. Chain-of-custody procedures are described in SOP SAS-03-02.

Actual custody shall mean personal and constant control and surveillance over the sample when it is being transported to or from the secured area and during the actual time that analytical services are being performed on the sample. b.
