Water Sample Collection and Assessment Sample Clauses

Water Sample Collection and Assessment. This study focused on the community of Juliette, GA. Water samples were collected by ARK beginning 13 August 2016 and have continued through 7 February 2020. Samples were collected from household water taps following a standardized protocol and were packaged and transported to PACE Analytical Laboratories in Asheville, NC for analysis. All water samples were taken from households that utilize private water xxxxx as their primary source for water, including drinking water. A total of 64 samples were collected and analyzed in this time period. Household sampling strategy was based on distance from Plant Xxxxxxx XX-1 coal ash pond and agreement from households to test their water. The first six xxxxx tested were all within one mile of the eastern boundary of AP-1. Subsequent water samples were taken from xxxxx progressively further out from AP-1; the furthest being 7.4 miles away. Sampling distribution has generally stayed within a 2-mile radius of AP-1. XXX attributes this strategy to their objective of better understanding the scope of contamination by defining a plume around AP-1 (ARK, 2020). All samples followed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Environmental Sampling and Analytical Methods (ESAM) protocols. Water taps sampled were set for cold output and were free of contaminating devices such as screens, aeration devices, or purification devices. Water was timed to run for a minimum of five minutes before sampling. Plastic bottles were used to collect samples. All samples underwent EPA analytical methods 200.7, 245.1, and 218.7 to determine levels of metals and trace elements, and hexavalent chromium.
