Soil & Groundwater Sample Collection, Handling, and Analysis Sample Clauses

Soil & Groundwater Sample Collection, Handling, and Analysis. Samples will be collected using clean nitrile gloves and placed into laboratory-provided containers with minimal headspace, placed on ice, and delivered under chain-of-custody to the environmental laboratory for analyses. Drilling equipment will be cleaned using a high-pressure washer prior to beginning the project and before beginning each well location. Any non-dedicated sampling equipment will be cleaned using an Alconox wash and distilled water rinse prior to the beginning of the project and before each soil boring/temporary monitoring well location. Groundwater xxxxx will be purged, and samples will be collected using a pump in accordance with low-flow sampling procedures. Purging will be accomplished in such a way as to minimize disturbance of sediments at the bottom of the well, and therefore minimize turbidity of the water samples. Typically, this is accomplished by purging at a low flow rate (less than one liter per minute) with the pump intake near the middle of the screened interval. Soil samples will be collected and analyzed for RCRA-8 metals by EPA Method 6010/7470, VOCs by EPA Method 5035/8260, TPH by Texas Method 1005/1006, Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) by EPA Method 8082, Pesticides/Herbicides by EPA Methods 8081 & 8151, and Dioxins/Furans by EPA Method 8290. If analytical results indicate elevated levels of TPH, affected soil samples will also be analyzed for SVOCs by EPA Method 8270. Additionally, pH and Fractional Organic Carbon (FOC) data will be collected at five selected soil sample locations. Groundwater samples will be collected and analyzed for RCRA-8 metals using EPA Method 6010/7470, VOCs by EPA Method 8260, TPH by Texas Method 1005, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, PCBs by Method 8082, Pesticides/Herbicides by EPA Methods 8081 & 8151, Dioxins/Furans by EPA Method 8290. Five groundwater samples will be analyzed for Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) by EPA Method 2540 and for Chloride by EPA Method 9056. All laboratory analysis will be performed at a standard turnaround time (5 to 7 business days).

  • Sampling and Analysis The sampling and analysis of the coal delivered hereunder shall be performed by Buyer upon delivery of the coal to Buyer’s facility, and the results thereof shall be accepted and used as defining the quality and characteristics of the coal delivered under this Agreement and as the Payment Analysis. All analyses shall be made in Buyer’s laboratory at Buyer’s expense in accordance with ASTM standards where applicable, or industry-accepted standards in other cases. Samples for analyses shall be taken in accordance with ASTM standards or other methods mutually acceptable to both parties. Seller shall transmit its “as loaded” quality analysis to Buyer as soon as possible. Seller’s “as-loaded” quality shall be the Payment Analysis only when Buyer’s sampler and/or scales are inoperable, or if Buyer fails to obtain a sample upon unloading. Seller represents that it is familiar with Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices, and that it 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 industry-accepted changes in practices, provide for no less accuracy than the sampling and analysis practices existing at the tune of the execution of this Agreement, unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree. Each sample taken by Buyer shall be divided into four (4) parts and put into airtight containers, properly labeled and sealed. One (1) part shall be used for analysis by Buyer. One (1) 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 until thirty (30) days after the sample is taken (“Disposal Date”), and shall be delivered to Seller for analysis if Seller so requests before the Disposal Date. One (1) part (the “Referee Sample”) shall be retained by Buyer until the Disposal Date. Seller shall be given copies of all analyses made by Buyer by the fifth (5th) business day of the month following the month of unloading. In addition, Buyer shall send Seller weekly analyses of coal unloaded at Buyer’s facilities. XXXXXXXXX COAL COMPANY, INC. LG&E/KU Xxxxxxxx Xx. X00000 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 an analysis of the Referee Sample before the Disposal Date, Buyer’s analysis shall be used to determine the quality of the coal delivered hereunder and shall be the Payment Analysis. The Monthly Weighted Averages of specifications referenced in §6.1 shall be based on the individual Shipment analyses. If any dispute arises with regard to the analysis of any sample before the Disposal Date for such sample, 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, if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs by more than the applicable ASTM reproducibility standards, the Independent Lab results will govern, and the prior analysis shall be disregarded. All testing of the Referee Sample by the Independent Lab shall be at requestor’s expense unless the Independent Lab results differ from the original Payment Analysis for any specification by more than the applicable ASTM reproducibility standards as to that specification. In such case, the cost of the analysis made by the Independent Lab shall be borne by the party who provided the original Payment Analysis. XXXXXXXXX COAL COMPANY, INC. LG&E/KU Contract No. J12004
