1. Material Sampling

2. Instructional Goal
Through lecture, discussion, and scenario activities, the participant will better understand the need for detailed sampling plan before sampling begins and will see the problems and hazards associated with each type of sampling that may occur on a waste-site.

3. Sampling determine the characteristics of a source material
a sample can come from two sources:
the environment
hazardous waste

4. Sampling Plan background information sample collection details
selection of sampling equipment
PPE

5. Sampling Plan decontamination standard operating procedures
sample integrity
recordkeeping
packaging and shipping

6. Sample Collection Details
mapped locations both on- and off-site samples
number of samples taken at each point
volume of sample taken
type of sample container

7. Sample Recordkeeping location information chain of custody
packaging and shipping

8. Sample Labeling sample ID number date/time of sampling
specific location where taken
name of person taking the sample
the analysis requested

9. Soil Sampling surface soil samples soil sampling at given depths auger
bucket
continuous flight
post hole
trier
split spoon
backhoe

10. Surface Water Sampling
pond sampler
bottle sampler
peristaltic pump
Kemmerer bottle

11. Groundwater Sampling purging gas pressure displacement system
submersible pumps
peristaltic pump
bailers

12. Container Sampling Opening Remote-controlled Opening pneumatically
hydraulically
penetration

13. Selection of Sampling Equipment
dependent on the type of container
dependent on the material to be sampled
