Sampling and Analysis Plan. The development of a project-specific sampling and analysis plan (SAP) is the next step in the project evaluation process for those projects found to have inadequate information to make a regulatory decision on suitability of dredged material disposal following a Tier I evaluation. The SAP is the main source of information about the proposed dredging project’s sampling design/approach and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) measures associated with sample collection and dredged material analyses. This RIA recommends including all project-specific sampling, testing and QA/QC components in the project SAP. Sampling and testing must be coordinated far enough in advance of dredging to allow time for testing and data review. The guidance document, QA/QC Guidance for Sampling and Analysis The USACE, New Orleans District and Galveston District, and EPA, Region 6 plan to prepare a Dredged Material Evaluation Quality Assurance Plan (QAP), which will address basic QA/QC issues associated with dredged material sampling and evaluations. The QAP will include all general QA/QC information and requirements that apply across all dredging projects including field sampling and clean techniques, laboratory testing, data validation and reporting, and other QA/QC procedures. While basic/general sampling and analysis protocols will be addressed in the QAP, the individual project sampling design and project-specific QA/QC issues should be addressed in the project SAP. Once the QAP is finalized it will be included as an appendix to this RIA. Section 6 of this RIA contains additional information on QA/QC.

Sampling and Analysis Plan. The purpose of the Sampling and Analysis Plan (“SAP”) is to ensure that sampling data collection activities will be consistent with current sampling and analytical methodologies and will be comparable to and compatible with previous EPA and NHDES data collection activities performed at the Site while providing a mechanism for planning and approving field activities. The overall objectives of the SAP are as follows: • Document specific data quality objectives, procedures, and rationales for field work and sample analytical work. • Provide a mechanism for planning and approving Site and laboratory activities. • Ensure that sampling and analysis activities are necessary and sufficient. • Provide a common point of reference to ensure the comparability and compatibility of sampling and analysis activities to meet the stated project objectives. The SAP shall be the framework for anticipated field activities (e.g., sampling objectives, evaluation of existing data, standard operating procedures) and contain specific information on the field work (e.g., sampling locations and rationale, sample numbers and rationale, analyses of samples). During the SRI/FS, the SAP shall be revised as necessary to cover each round of field or laboratory activities. The SAP consists of two parts: (1) a QAPP, and (2) a FSP. The QAPP shall follow the requirements in QA/R-5 and the Region I, EPA-New England Compendium of Quality Assurance Project Plan Requirements and Guidance. The FSP will contain the standard operating procedures (“SOPs”) and other documentation to support specific sections of the QAPP. In some cases where there are unique FSP components for special applications, they will be added to the QAPP in the appropriate sections. In addition, the FSP and QAPP should be submitted as a single document (although they may be bound separately to facilitate use of the FSP in the field). The SAP shall include provisions for notifying EPA and NHDES a minimum of three weeks before initiation of each field sampling or monitoring activity. The SAP shall also provide for split, replicate, or duplicate samples to be taken by EPA, NHDES (or their contractor personnel or other government agencies working with EPA). At the request of EPA or NHDES, Respondents shall provide these samples in appropriate containers to the government representatives. Identical procedures shall be used to collect such samples, unless otherwise specified by EPA or NHDES. In the event that, following good-faith sam...

Related to Sampling and Analysis Plan

  • Sampling and Analysis The Seller has sole responsibility for quality control of the coal and shall forward its “as loaded” quality to the Buyer as soon as possible. The sampling and analysis of the coal delivered hereunder shall be performed by Buyer and the results thereof shall be accepted and used for the quality and characteristics of the coal delivered under this Agreement. All analyses shall be made in Buyer’s laboratory at Buyer’s expense in accordance with ASTM standards where applicable, or using standards mutually acceptable to both parties. Samples for analyses shall be taken by any ASTM standards or standards mutually acceptable to both parties, and may be composited and shall be taken with a frequency and regularity sufficient to provide reasonably accurate representative samples of the deliveries made hereunder. Seller represents that it is familiar with Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices, and finds them to be acceptable. Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any significant changes in Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices. Any such changes in Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices shall, except for ASTM or mutually agreeable changes in practices, provide for no less accuracy than the sampling and analysis practices existing at the time of the execution of this Agreement, unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree. (1) part shall be used for analysis by Buyer; one (l) part shall be used by Buyer as a check sample, if Buyer in its sole judgment determines it is necessary; one (1) part shall be retained by Buyer (LG&E) until the twenty-fifth (25th) of the month following the month of unloading (the “LG&E Disposal Date”) or Buyer (KU) until thirty (30) days after the sample is taken (the “KU Disposal Date”), the LG&E Disposal Date and the KU Disposal Date are collectively the “Disposal Date”), and shall be delivered to Seller for analysis if Seller so requests before the Disposal Date; and one part (“Referee Sample”) shall be retained by Buyer until the Disposal Date. Seller shall be given copies of all analyses made by Buyer by the tenth (10th) business day of the month following the month of unloading. Seller, on reasonable notice to Buyer shall have the right to have a representative present to observe the sampling and analyses performed by Buyer. Unless Seller requests a Referee Sample analysis before the Disposal Date, Buyer’s analysis shall be used to determine the quality of the coal delivered hereunder. The Monthly Weighted Averages shall be determined by utilizing the individual shipment analyses. If any dispute arises before the Disposal Date, the Referee Sample retained by Buyer shall be submitted for analysis to an independent commercial testing laboratory (“Independent Lab”) mutually chosen by Buyer and Seller. For each coal quality specification in question, a dispute shall be deemed not to exist and Buyer’s analysis shall prevail and the analysis of the Independent Lab shall be disregarded if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs from the analysis of Buyer by an amount equal to or less than: (i) 0.50% moisture (ii) 0.50% ash on a dry basis (iii) 100 Btu/lb. on a dry basis (iv) 0.10% sulfur on a dry basis. For each coal quality specification in question, if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs from the analysis of Buyer by an amount more than the amounts listed above, then the analysis of the Independent Lab shall prevail and Buyer’s analysis shall be disregarded. The cost of the analysis made by the Independent Lab shall be borne by Seller to the extent that Buyer’s analysis prevails and by Buyer to the extent that the analysis of the Independent Lab prevails.
