INTRODUCTION
Kennecott Environmental and Industrial Hygiene Laboratory (KEIHL) is a
component of Rio Tinto Kennecott Corporation (RTKC) and has provided
analytical services to RTKC for over 40 years. KEIHL is in the Central Laboratory
at 2500 South 9180 West, Magna, Utah. The laboratory provides in-house
analytical services for environmental, industrial hygiene, geochemical, and
process monitoring programs for RTKC only. KEIHL does not provide analytical
services to outside clients and will review all new work proposed to ensure the
appropriate facilities and resources exist before commencing work.
Laboratory Environment
KEIHL is a state-of-the-art facility. The building provides large test areas,
energy sources, lighting, heating, and ventilation for the proper performance of
test methods. The environmental monitoring systems within the building
monitor, control, and record all environmental conditions as appropriate. Such
environmental conditions may include dust, humidity, main voltage, and
temperature. The work areas are effectively separated for possible incompatible
work areas. KEIHL maintains good housekeeping standards to ensure that any
contamination does not adversely affect data quality. Access is controlled by Rio
Tinto Kennecott Corporation (RTKC) by using a card key system and limited to

KEIHL personnel and RTKC’s Health, Safety and Environmental Quality (HSEQ)
department employees and authorized visitors. The laboratory area where
environmental samples are stored and analyzed is considered a Resource
Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) secure area. A facility diagram can be found
in Section 1 Appendix A.
Definition
This Quality Assurance Program Plan (QAPP) was developed using four
regulatory guidelines. The first guideline is NELAC Chapter 5 Quality Systems.
The second guideline is the State of Utah Rule for the Certification of
Environmental Laboratories, Rule 444-14. KEIHL used a combination of NELAC
Chapter 5 and R444-14-7 to compile a list of essential items required for a
quality assurance plan. The Third guideline used is the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) documented in “Interim Guidelines and Specifications
for Preparing Quality Assurance Program Plans,” QAPPS 005/80 December 29,
1980, issued by the Office of Monitoring Systems and Quality Assurance Office
of Research and Development. The fourth guideline is the AIHA/ISO 17025 for
Industrial Hygiene procedures. KEIHL is in conformance with these four
guidelines listed above and the Quality Assurance (QA) policy is stated in
Section 2.0.

Purpose
The purpose of this QAPP is to present an overview of the essential
elements of KEIHL’s quality assurance program. Elements not specified in the
EPA and AIHA guidance documents are included in this QAPP to provide
additional QA program elements required to meet the objectives of the QA
policy. The QA policies and procedures described herein are designed to
eliminate systematic errors and minimize the occurrence of other errors.
However, no QA program can eliminate all errors which may occur during
analysis. The QA program provides the framework for minimizing errors and
identifying and correcting the errors that may occur. These QA policies and
procedures must be coupled with the professional judgment of the technical staff
to ensure that quality data is consistently produced.
Laboratory Organization
The organization of Kennecott Environmental and Industrial Hygiene
Laboratory is described in Section 3 of this document. Safety guidelines for the
laboratory are provided in the Chemical Hygiene Plan, which is found in Bentley,
a site-wide commercial document control system utilized at RTKC.
Rio Tinto Kennecott Corporation Safety Policies and Procedures can be found on
the company intranet.

Maintain an objective attitude toward the recognition and evaluation of
safety and health issues, regardless of external influences since the
health and welfare of workers is of paramount importance.
The Laboratory is obligated to provide accurate and precise analytical
data in a timely manner to support the various programs at RTKC. Laboratory
employees are required to do all possible within their means to ensure that
analytical results are of the highest quality. All data will be completed promptly
with a quality sufficient to meet the needs of RTKC management and to ensure
the health and safety of the individual employee.
All Laboratory employees must ensure all analytical methods, quality
assurance and documentation procedures are followed. No undue pressure
should be applied by any employee, manager or group that would cause a
laboratory employee to compromise their work and the analytical results
provided by the laboratory in any manner. If an employee has cause or feels
that any form of unjustified pressure is being applied to their position, they can
bring this immediately to the attention of the Laboratory Director. An employee
can choose to contact the Human Resource Department if they are unable or
unwilling to bring the issue to the Laboratory Director.

QUALITY ASSURANCE POLICY
The objective of the Kennecott Environmental and Industrial Hygiene
Laboratory (KEIHL) is to provide analytical data that is accurate, reliable, and
adequate for the intended purpose. The quality assurance program will be
continuously maintained to ensure the production and documentation of quality
data that is legally and scientifically defensible. Laboratory management and
personnel will perform due diligence and strive to ensure that all tests and
calibrations comply with International Standard 17025, NELAP regulatory methods,
and client requirements. The data generated by KEIHL will be used to support the
Data Quality Objectives (DQOs) and monitoring programs of Rio Tinto Kennecott
Corporation (RTKC). Therefore, the primary objective of the QAPP is to ensure that
all results generated by the laboratory are valid representations of the
environmental material in the samples at the time of sampling. It is the policy of
Kennecott Industrial Hygiene and Environmental Laboratory to ensure all personnel
familiarize themselves with, and subsequently implement, the policies addressed in
this Quality Assurance Program Plan (QAPP) and all associated Standard Operating
Procedures (SOPs). To meet the QAPP objective, it is essential that the following

SAMPLE CUSTODY
Every sample or group of samples submitted to KEIHL must have a
completed Analytical Request Sheet (Section 5 Appendix A). The Analytical
Request Sheet is a standard form used to record sample description, collection date
and time, number of bottles, analytical field data, and the requested analyses. The
Analytical Request Sheet serves as the sample Chain of Custody (COC).
Sampling Materials
KEIHL does not provide any sampling materials. Rio Tinto Kennecott
Corporation (RTKC) has specific departments for Environmental Sampling and
Industrial Hygiene sampling.
Sample Clerk
The Sample Clerk reviews the Analytical Request Sheets and sample
containers are inspected for the criteria listed below prior to samples being
accepted by KEIHL.
Proper chain-of-custody documentation.
Sample identification
Number of Bottles
Collection Date and time
 The sample bottles must include the following information:
Sample identification
Sample location, date, and time of collection
Collectors name
Preservative added
Matrix

Condition and temperature of the samples and sample containers.
Proper sample preservation is verified and documented in LIMS.
Agreement between the Analytical Request Sheet and sample labels.
A list of analyses ordered.
Special instructions or precautions for handling.
Sample Acceptance/Client Communication
If the criteria listed above are not met, the samples are unacceptable, and
the sample-receiving clerk is responsible for initiating action. The sample receiving
clerk contacts the individual who submitted the samples to complete the COC
properly. The Laboratory Director can accept samples at their discretion, even
though some information is still incomplete if it is noted on the COC, and the final
report.
Once the Analysis Request Sheet has been completed appropriately, the
sample receiving clerk is then responsible for performing the activities listed below.
Sign and accept the sample.
Each Chain of Custody Sheet is considered a Login Group. Each Login
Group is assigned a unique number.
The Sample Clerk assigns each sample, including duplicates, matrix
spikes and laboratory control samples a unique laboratory number by
logging the samples into the LIMS system.

The LIMS program prints barcode labels. The labels are attached to the
appropriate corresponding sample containers. The barcode label number
is explained below:
Example: GA00001 (+Subcategory ID)
The first two letters in the number indicates the year,
i.e. FA= 2023 back to GA = 2022
The following five numeric characters are the numbers of
samples received for the year. In the above example the
sample would be the first sample of the year.
1.Each individual sample container received at the laboratory is given
a unique laboratory number. The unique laboratory identification
number is documented on the chain of custody. The sample
container subcategories are listed below.
NUT1 = Nutrients non-preserved #1
NUT2 = Nutrients non-preserved #2 (SO4)
T1 = Total Metal preserved with HNO3 #1
T2 = Total Metal preserved with HNO3 #2
D = Dissolved Metal preserved with HNO3
HG= Mercury preserved with HNO3
NO3 = Nitrate preserved with H2SO4
SO4 = Sulfate preserved with HCl
CN = Cyanide preserved with NaOH
COLI1 = Fecal Coliform
COLI2 = Total Coliform
TML = Total Metals Soil
TCLP = TCLP Soil
SPLP = SPLP Soil
MISC1 = Misc #1
MISC2 = Misc #2
SPLIT = Split #1
SPLIT = Split #2
The laboratory numbers are generated by the LIMS system to ensure that
no number can be repeated.

The laboratory identification number is recorded on the original Analytical
Request Sheet.
All samples which require thermal preservation are placed in a refrigerator
that can maintain temperatures ± 4°C. Samples that are hand delivered
to the laboratory immediately after collection may not meet these criteria.
In these cases, the samples are considered acceptable if there is evidence
that the chilling process has begun, such as arrival on ice.
Samples are stored away from all standards, reagents, food and other
potentially contaminating sources. Samples are stored in a manner to
prevent cross contamination.
All documentation, such as memos or transmittal forms, that may be
brought to the laboratory by the sample transmitter are retained with the
COC file.
Subcontracting Samples
Kennecott Environmental and Industrial Hygiene Laboratory (KEIHL) does not
subcontract industrial hygiene samples. If RTKC Industrial Hygiene Group
requires testing that KEIHL does not provide, the Industrial Hygiene Group must
submit their samples to another laboratory. This is handled independent of KEIHL.
Sample Tracking
Samples are tracked through the laboratory by using the computerized
Laboratory Information Management System or LIMS Progress Report. The progress
report may contain the following information:
Date samples are received.
Date samples are logged into the LIMS system.
Sample due date.
Collection Date.
The person to whom the results are reported.
The laboratory sample numbers.

The sample matrix.
The analytes requested.
The LIMS System is “LABWORKS Desktop for Windows”, version 7.2.0.0, Build
7.2.0.135, serial number 91410206. The LIMS software operates on a P.C. based
NT/SQL network, which includes an interface for analytical instrumentation. The
LIMS program provides the means for assigning a unique sample identification
number for samples. The unique sample identification number is then used for
real-time scheduling, backlog management, accounting, sample tracking, quality
assurance, audit trailing, reporting, archival data storage, data search, and data
retrieval. Following analyst review, peer review, and the bench level quality control
review, the analytical data is entered into LIMS either manually or imported directly
from instrumentation data files. There are additional reviews including site history
checks, ion balance checks, and total dissolved solids balance. The reporting of
GCMP (Groundwater Characterization Monitoring Plan) samples typically involve
comparability checks against historical data to identify trends and outlying data
points. Once data is found compliant with agreed data quality objectives, analytical
certificates are issued. Validation by the QA Manager and Laboratory Director is
required prior to final reporting. Laboratory personnel can generate control charts.
The QA/QC Officer can monitor data quality using LIMS and the SQL interface. LIMS
database and the SQL interface are maintained by a designated in-house specialist
or by contract help.

Upon completion of analysis, the samples are returned to the designated
storage place and archived for up to six months after the analytical results are
released. After the archive time elapses, the QA/QC Officer arranges for proper
disposal of the samples (refer to CLMAN4400-0006 Central Laboratory Waste

QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEMS
KEIHL employs several types of essential quality control procedures to
achieve high-quality data. The quality control procedures are discussed in
this section of the QAPP.
Industrial Hygiene methods certified under ISO17025 utilize different
terminology and require different frequencies relative to quality control.
For Industrial Hygiene methods, please refer to the following standard
operating procedures for specific quality control requirements: CLSOP
4423-7009, CLSOP4423-7021, and CLSOP4423-7020).
Training
Training is essential for a Laboratory to produce quality data. KEIHL employs
several techniques. When a new analyst is hired, the new analyst must first read
the QAPP. This informs the new hire of the type of quality they are to produce and
the code of ethics they are required to meet. When a new assignment is made to
the analyst, the analyst must complete training from the section supervisor and a
checklist must be completed.
1.Read and understand the QAPP.
2.Read and understand the methods and the SOP’s.
3.Learn the software and the hardware of the system.
4.Perform an analytical run using a sample batch which includes a QC
set with an original, duplicate, matrix spike, matrix spike duplicate,
blank and a blank spike under the supervision of the section
supervisor or QA Manager
5.Where possible, use a reference sample with the batch.

This training checklist is documented and kept in the analyst training record.
Only analysts who have completed training are authorized to independently operate
and use equipment. Ongoing demonstrations of capability for each analyst are
performed annually for NELAC (National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation
Certification) and semi-annually for AIHA (American Industrial Hygiene
Association). Several types of studies may be used to demonstrate ongoing
capability: 1) A quality control sample can be obtained from an outside source.
(This may include a performance evaluation study or a reference sample). 2) The
analyte may be diluted in clean matrix sufficient to prepare four aliquots at the
concentration specified or to a concentration approximately 10 times the method
stated, or laboratory calculated MDL. 3) At least four aliquots shall be prepared and
analyzed according to the test method either concurrently or over a period of days.
If the analyst chooses to perform number 2 or 3, the results of all the data are
calculated for the mean recovery, and the standard deviation for the n-1
population. The information is then compared to the laboratory generated
acceptance criteria for precision and accuracy. If the parameter meets the
acceptance criteria, the analysis of actual samples may begin. If any one of the
parameters does not meet the criteria, the performance is deemed unacceptable for
that parameter. The analyst must then locate and correct the problem and repeat
the test for the parameters that fail to meet the criteria.

Performance Evaluation (PE) Testing
KEIHL participates in 9 different PE events annually. Depending on the PE
study these tests may be annual, bi-annual, tri-annual, quarterly or six times
annually. KEIHL follows the proficiency testing provider’s instruction for preparing
the proficiency-testing sample and analyzes the PE sample in the same manner as a
client sample. KEIHL uses certified reference materials in conjunction with the PE
studies to detect any flagrant deviations from the analytical run. KEIHL may use a
different method for a given sample (if needed) to capture the higher concentration
analytes so that they are within the instrument calibration range. KEIHL may retain
these samples for one year and use them later for monitoring methods, training
new employees, and for demonstration of capability studies. KEIHL directs the PE
provider to send result of each PE study results to the State of Utah. KEIHL
maintains a copy of all PE testing records. If the laboratory fails a proficiency-
testing audit, they must initiate a corrective action plan.
Laboratory Operations: Quality Control
KEIHL follows the Quality Control requirements of the methods. If there are
no Quality Control limits described in the method, the analyst must meet quality
control requirements specific to accuracy, precision, interference, contamination,
selectivity, and sensitivity.

Chemical Testing
When performing chemical testing, KEIHL uses both negative and positive controls
to obtain high-quality data.
All Blanks/Negative controls
Negative controls include the use of Method Blanks. These are performed at a
frequency of one per preparation batch per matrix, usually 1 in 20 samples. The
result of the Method Blank analysis is used to assess possible contamination of the
batch. If contamination is found, then the source must be investigated and
measures taken to correct, minimize, or eliminate the problem. There are two
Method Blank criteria which trigger action: 1.) If the blank contamination exceeds
the concentration of greater than 1/10 of the measured concentration of any
sample in the associated sample batch. 2.) The blank contamination exceeds the
concentration present in the samples and is greater than 1/10 the specified
regulatory limit. Any sample associated with the contaminated blank shall be
reprocessed for analysis.
Additional types of blank samples routinely analyzed by KEIHL include the
following: field, equipment, trip, instrument, and method blanks. Field, equipment,
and trip blanks are analyzed as part of the field QC program as set forth in the
Groundwater Characterization Monitoring Program (GCMP) or other appropriate
documents. Instrument blanks are included in calibration curves and are evaluated
before beginning sample analysis.

Accuracy and Precision/Positive controls
1.) Laboratory Control Samples (LCS) are prepared and analyzed at a frequency of
one per preparation batch or 1/20 per matrix, unless the method specifies a more
stringent frequency. (Analytes that are exempt from this requirement are total
volatile solids, pH, color, odor, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity.) The
LCS is used to determine the acceptance of the preparation batch. KEIHL’s
performance is charted on control charts.
2.) Matrix Spikes are analyzed at a frequency of one per preparation batch of 20
samples for each matrix type, unless the method specifies a more stringent
frequency. (Except for analytes for which spiking solutions are not available, such
as total volatile solids, pH, color, odor, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and
turbidity.) Matrix spikes are selected at random. Poor performance in a matrix
spike sample may indicate a problem with the sample composition and shall be
reported to the client whose sample was used for the spike.
3.) Surrogates (Internal Standards) - Surrogate compounds are added to all
samples, standard, and blanks for all mass spectroscopy and certain ICP methods.
Poor surrogate recovery may indicate a problem with the sample composition or
instrument fluctuation. The samples are reanalyzed if the surrogate recovery drops
more than 20 percent of the known value for possible problems with the
instrument. If the recovery drops a second time, the poor recovery is reported to
the client.

4.) Interference is determined by evaluating a matrix spike sample. Matrix spike
and matrix spike duplicate samples are labeled as Spike 1 and Spike 2. Matrix
spikes are analyzed at a frequency of one matrix spike every 10 samples for water
samples and one matrix spike every 20 samples for soils. A matrix spike sample
set is created in the laboratory by collecting two aliquots from a homogenized
sample. One aliquot is not spiked and the remaining aliquot is spiked with a known
concentration of standard reference material. Both aliquots are then processed
through the entire analytical system, including sample preparation. Matrix spike
results are reported by computing the percent recovery. The percent recovery is
computed by using Equation 1.
Equation 1 % Recovery ={(A –B)/ C} x 100
A =Spiked Sample Result
B =Sample Result

KEIHL’s acceptable limits for matrix spike samples are  25% for water, and  35%
for soils. These limits were agreed to by the Utah State Department of
Environmental Quality under the Consent Agreement Kennecott Utah Copper has
for the Ground Water Characterization Monitoring Plan (GCMP). References are
available.

samples per matrix type, sample extraction or preparation method. Samples are
selected at random. Poor performance in duplicates may indicate a problem with
the sample composition and shall be reported to the client whose sample was used
for the duplicate. The analytical results are reported by computing the Relative
Percent Difference (RPD) using
Equation 2.
Equation

% RPD ={(A –B)/[(A+B)/2]} x 100
A =Spiked Sample Result
B =Sample Result
The RPD’s are evaluated and compared to method specific acceptance criteria
for a given matrix. RPD results provide an estimation of the precision for a given
sample matrix. The relative percent difference must fall within  25% or the
sample batch is reanalyzed. The results of these samples are captured in a web-
based report and are reviewed monthly.
Method Evaluation
To ensure the accuracy of the reported result, the following procedures are in
place:
1.Demonstration of Capability is performed initially and following significant
change in instrument type, personnel, and sample matrix or test method.
2. Calibration protocols are specified in the calibration section of this QAPP.
3.Participation in performance evaluation to evaluate the ability to produce
accurate data.

Detection Limits
KEIHL performs MDL studies at least annually on all methods it performs by
following the guidelines in 40 CFR, Part 140, and Appendix B. Refer to KEIHL SOP
CLSOP4423-1013 for the process. An MDL study may be performed more
frequently if significant changes occur, such as a change in location of the
laboratory, a new technical employee, a new instrument, or a new technique.
Standard/Reagent and Reference Standard Preparation
A critical element of producing quality data is the purity, quality and
traceability of the standard solutions and reagents used in the laboratory. To
ensure the highest possible purity, all primary calibration standards, reference
standards and standard solutions must be purchased from suppliers in conformance
with ISO Guide 34 requirements. These types of standards are logged into the
appropriate Standards and Reagent Log upon arrival at KEIHL. A logbook for this
purpose is maintained in each lab section. The analyst preparing the standard
gives the standard a unique identification number and documents the vendor, lot
number, concentration, open/preparation date, preparer's initials, method of
preparation, and expiration date. The standard’s Certificate of Analysis is kept on
file with the standard number, date received, and initials of the analyst. The
Certificate of Analysis file is maintained by the analyst and/or the QA/QC Officer.
These logbooks and Certificates of Analysis provide the traceability of the standards
from the time the standard arrives at KEIHL to the time it is used for an analytical
purpose. The standard log number is also recorded on the raw data for traceability.

A second source standard must be used at a minimum of every three
months. However, most analysts analyze the second source after the daily
calibration to verify the calibration curve. The second source standard is prepared
at a different time and is obtained from a different source or different lot number.
This verification is used to evaluate the calibration and the vendor’s product. Stock
standards and working standards are checked regularly for signs of deterioration,
such as discoloration, formation of precipitates, or change in concentration. Care is
exercised in the proper storage and handling of standard solutions. Standards are
not stored with samples. Working standard reagent containers are clearly labeled
with the following information: Standard number, description, preparation date,
concentration, expiration date, preparer's initials, and special safety precautions or
SDS (Safety Data Sheets) information.
The quality of the laboratory’s reagent water source is continuously
monitored through the analysis of blanks. The water must meet the method
specified requirements.
Constant and Consistent Test Conditions
KEIHL maintains a temperature-controlled environment to assure that the
test instruments consistently operate within the specification required for the
application for which the instruments are used.
Glassware is cleaned to meet the sensitivity requirements of the test
methods. All cleaning and storage procedures that are not specified by the test
method are documented in the laboratory records and SOPs.

CALIBRATION
Calibration requirements are divided into two parts: (1) requirements for
analytical support equipment and (2) requirements for instrument calibration.
Support Equipment
These devices are not the actual test instruments but include auxiliary equipment
necessary to support laboratory operations. This equipment requires calibration
documentation indicating they were calibrated by an organization accredited under
ISO/IEC 17025 and therefore, in conformance with the necessary requirements.
These include, but are not limited to, the following: balances, ovens, refrigerators,
incubators, thermometers, volumetric dispensing devices, such as Eppendorfs, or
automatic diluters. KEIHL maintains records of repairs and maintenance activity.
All raw data records are maintained to document equipment performance. Results
of the calibrations must be within the specifications required for the application for
which the equipment is used. Prior to use, balances, ovens, and refrigerators are
checked for expected temperature range with NIST traceable references.
Mechanical volumetric dispensing devices are checked for accuracy quarterly.

Weights and Balance Calibration
A contractor performs all necessary preventative maintenance and calibrates
balances every six months and weights annually. The Class S weights are
calibrated annually and checked against NIST traceable weights for accuracy. The
contractor issues a certificate of calibration for both the weights and the balances
that states the variability of the balances. Documented weight verification is
performed each time the balance is used by the analyst. The analyst performs
verification by placing one of the Class S weights on the balance and recording the
result in the balance calibration book. The analyst should select a Class S weight in
the weight range of the sample or reagent to be weighed.
Thermometer Calibration
Thermometer calibration is performed on all glass mercury thermometers
annually. This is accomplished by using an NIST traceable thermometer. The NIST
traceable thermometer is placed beside the glass mercury thermometer and
allowed to equilibrate for one hour. The respective temperatures are recorded. If
there are discrepancies between the NIST traceable thermometer and the glass
mercury thermometer, it is noted on the label which is attached to the
thermometer. Alternatively, thermometers can be sent out for calibration to an
approved ISO17025 certified calibration service provider.

Mechanical Pipette Calibration Verification
A calibration verification is performed on KEL’s mechanical pipettes quarterly.
The calibration verification is performed using “Pipette Tracker” software. Each
pipette has a unique number. The unique number may be the pipette serial
number or an assigned laboratory ID number. The unique number is engraved or
labeled on the pipette. The non-adjustable pipettes are calibrated using a  2%
criteria for precision and accuracy. The calibration verification acceptance range
uses a  5% for precision and accuracy at the lowest adjustable reading and a  2%
for precision and accuracy for every actual volume a minimum of three
concentrations are verified for calibration. When the calibration verification has
been completed, a Certificate of Calibration is printed and kept in the Pipette
Calibration Book in the QA/QC Manager’s Office.
Instrument Calibration
Instrument calibrations are divided into two parts: Initial Calibration and
Continuing Instrument Calibration Verification.
Initial Calibration
Instrument calibration procedures are intended to ensure that analytical
systems are operating correctly and have adequate sensitivity and accuracy to
meet method requirements. The details of the initial instrument calibration
procedures are included or referenced in the SOP. The manufacturer specifies

general instrument calibration procedures. Method specific procedures are given in
the appropriate analytical method. Instruments are calibrated daily and/or each
time they are prepared to run samples. Each instrument is calibrated with
standards appropriate to the designated function of the instrument, type of
analysis, and the established operating range of the analytical methods. Calibration
is always performed prior to analysis. Sample results must be calculated from the
initial instrument calibration and may not be calculated from any continuing
instrument calibration verification. The lowest calibration standard must be above
the detection limit. Calibration standards must include concentrations at or below
the regulatory limit or decision level, unless these concentrations are below the
demonstrated detection limits determined by the laboratory. Sufficient raw data
records must be retained to permit reconstruction of the initial instrument
calibration, e.g., calibration date, test method, instrument, analysis date, each
analyte name, initials of analyst or signature, concentration and response,
calibration curve or response factor. The analyst analyzes a second source after the
daily calibration to verify the calibration curve. The second source standard is
prepared at a different time and obtained from a different source or different lot
number. The second source verification is used to evaluate the calibration and the
vendor’s product.
The calibration standards must have a correlation coefficient (also referred to
as r2) of 0.995 or better and blanks must meet the method specific criteria for

acceptance, or the analysis is terminated, and all samples analyzed after the last
acceptable calibration are reanalyzed. If the result of an analysis is higher than the
highest point on the calibration, the sample is diluted until the result falls within the
calibration range. If results are lower than the lowest point on the calibration,
which goes through zero, the results are reported Below Reporting Limit (RL).
Continuing Instrument Calibration Verification
The details of the continuing instrument calibration procedure, calculations
and associated statistics must be included or referenced in the SOP. A
continuing instrument calibration verification must be repeated at the beginning,
every ten samples and at the end of every analytical run. For the photometric
determination of anions, the continuing instrument calibration standards are
analyzed every 15 samples, including 9 daily samples and 6 quality control
samples. The concentration of the calibration verification shall be varied within the
established calibration range. Sufficient raw data records must be retained to
permit reconstruction of the initial instrument calibration, e.g., calibration date, test
method, instrument, analysis date, each analyte name, initials of analyst or
signature, concentration and response, calibration curve or response factor. The
criteria for acceptance of continuing instrument calibration verification is
established as  10% of the known concentration. If the continuing instrument
calibration verification results obtained are outside the established acceptance
criteria, corrective actions must be performed. If routine corrective action

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Preventive maintenance of analytical instrumentation and other traditional
equipment is routinely performed on an as needed or on a recommended basis and
documented in the instrument maintenance logbooks. One important aspect of the
instrument maintenance program is service contracts which cover most of the
analytical instrumentation utilized at Kennecott Environmental and Industrial
Laboratory (KEIHL). Preventive maintenance procedures specified by the
instrument manufacturer or the QA program are included in the method/SOPs
relating to the instrument. Instruments requiring service from an authorized
service engineer are removed from service until the repair or maintenance is
completed. Authorized maintenance personnel service other pieces of equipment
such as the balances on a semi-annual basis. Service call maintenance is
documented and service records are kept on file. Internal system audits monitor
preventive maintenance. Annual systems audits are designed to address any long-
standing or recurring problems with the instrumentation and engineering controls.
Records are maintained for each major piece of equipment and all reference
materials significant to the test performed. The records shall include the following
information:

DATA QUALITY ASSESSMENT
The Data Quality Assessment section of the QAPP describes the techniques
that are used to assess the precision, accuracy, completeness, and comparability of
all data generated under the Quality Assurance Program.
Precision
Precision is defined as the measure of mutual agreement among individual
measurements of the same property, usually under similarly prescribed conditions.
Precision is best expressed in terms of relative percent difference. The Precision is
determined by performing duplicate analyses of a certified reference material or
laboratory control sample and graphing the data on a control chart to see if the
sample concentrations fall within the statistical limits. Each analyst performs
duplicate analysis of certified reference materials or performance evaluation
samples for every QC set analyzed in the analytical process.
Accuracy
Accuracy is the degree of agreement of a measurement (or an average of
measurements of the same property) with the accepted reference value or true
value. It is a measure of the bias in a system and will be expressed as the percent
recovery in a spiked sample. It can also be assessed using a certified reference

material (CRM also called a Standard Reference Material (SRM)) with certified
values. Accuracy is evaluated through the steps listed below.
Calculating the average and the standard deviation for the QC check samples
for each parameter and graphing the results on control charts to determine if
the accuracy is within the statistical acceptance limits.
Inspecting all blank analysis data for field or laboratory contamination
problems.
Calculating the percent recovery of laboratory fortified samples and
laboratory fortified blanks to ascertain the accuracy of the system.
Proper evaluation of precision and accuracy will offer insight into instrument
performance and general data quality.
Completeness
Completeness is defined as a measure of the amount of valid data obtained
from a measurement system compared to the amount that is expected to be
obtained under normal operating conditions. Completeness is evaluated in terms of
the amount of valid data obtained compared to the amount that is needed to
complete the QA goals. The amount of valid data generated in an analytical
sequence can vary due to several causes: laboratory sample handling or
preparation errors resulting in the loss or destruction of an analyte, instrumental
errors resulting in data rejection, and insufficient QC data (e.g., lack of spike
recovery data). If data acquisition targets are not met, the data may be

determined to be incomplete by the analyst or QA manager and further analysis or
repeated sampling may be required.
Comparability
Comparability is defined as the confidence with which one data set can be
compared to another. Identifying pertinent data characteristics that may limit
comparability to other sets assesses comparability. Comparability will be evaluated
using the steps listed below.
Assuring that measurements obtained during a predetermined time frame
are statistically comparable using SOPs and standard analytical
procedures.
Internal performance audits may be initiated by the QA manager. One
data set generated by one analyst or instrument can be compared to
another.
Comparison of current data with historical data from the same sampling
site.

PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED
DATA REDUCTION, VERIFICATION, AND
REPORTING
All data are processed to ensure that the precision, accuracy, completeness,
and comparability of the data are of known and documented quality. Data validation
includes data reduction, verification, and reporting procedures completed
independently by the analyst, QA/QC Officer and Laboratory Director.
Traceability of Measurement
Traceability is the ability to trace the history, application, or location of an
entity by means of recorded identifications for a given sample or project. KEIHL’s
Quality Control Systems strives to provide a program to ensure that measurements
made by the laboratory are traceable to national standards of measurement when
possible. When traceability to national standards of measurement is not applicable,
the laboratory provides satisfactory evidence or correlation of results by
participation in inter-laboratory comparisons, proficiency testing or independent
analysis.
Sample Traceability
The traceability begins with the sample numbers being assigned to the
samples and then being recorded on the Chain of Custody. The preparation
chemist then records the laboratory assigned sample number in the preparation
logbook. After the samples have been prepared, the completed samples are placed

in a sample type designated area. The Analyst then prepares an analytical run from
the backlog and types the corresponding number into the analytical sample
identification table. This then becomes part of the final record.
Standard, Reagent, and Reference Material Traceability
The KEIHL laboratory only purchases standards that are traceable to national
standards. When the laboratory receives new standards, reagents or reference
material, the Laboratory records the following information into a Standard/ Reagent
Logbook: name of the standard, concentration, vendor, lot number, date of receipt,
expiration date and the analyst’s initials. The standard is then assigned a unique
laboratory number. All standards are received with a Certificate of Analysis. The
unique number is recorded on the Certificate of Analysis and the certificate is kept
in the QA Manager’s office. A sticker is placed on the standard with the information
listed above. If a standard is diluted, or added to a working standard, the
directions for this are also recorded in the Standard Logbook. The new working
standard is given a unique number and labeled accordingly. The working standard
number is recorded on each analytical run to provide traceability back to the
standards used for the analytical run.
Analyst Data Reduction, Validation, and Reporting
The analyst has primary responsibility for generating data of acceptable,

known, and documented quality. The analyst reduces instrumental output to
concentration values and verifies that all QC results are acceptable by comparing
analytical results to statistically generated control charts for accuracy and precision,
method specific criteria, and historical control limits.
Peer Review
Peer review of sample data is completed after each analytical batch and is
documented on the raw data. Typically, the Group Supervisor, or designee, reviews
a minimum of 10% of the data generated by a Laboratory Group. The analyst
documents corrective action at the bench level on the raw data or by using the
Corrective Action Report Summary maintained by the QA officer.
The analyst inspects standard, blank, sample, duplicate, and matrix spike
results during an analytical batch or run and compares results against known control
limits and method QC requirements. Results found to be suspect and those that are
outside acceptance limits are investigated. The analyst will troubleshoot the
problem(s) and restart the batch, beginning with calibration, if necessary. A
Supervisor or the QA/QC Officer will be notified if the problem(s) cannot be resolved
at the analyst level. The QA/QC Officer will be notified to determine whether further
corrective action is required and the analyst will document conclusions. The tools
used to determine acceptable results may include control charts for QC and check
standard results and historical data for sample results. After the analyst determines
that data quality is acceptable and the other aspects related to the data quality are

known and documented, the analyst will transfer the data into the LIMS (Laboratory
Information Management System).
QA/QC Officer Data Reduction, Validation and Reporting
The QA/QC Officer is responsible for ensuring the precision, accuracy,
completeness, and comparability of the data are of known and documentable quality.
The QA/QC Officer reviews the data only after all requested analyses for a sample or
sample set have been completed. The process followed by the QA/QC Officer
includes a review of all stages of the sample from receipt and chain-of–custody to
data reduction, verification, final reporting and the final archival processes. Data
reduction is performed using the QA SQL interface program and the LIMS based
Northwest Quality Analyst (NWQA). The QA/QC Officer reviews the data and
determines whether corrective action is required. Verification includes an
assessment of QC results, confirmation of cation/anion balances and total dissolved
solids comparisons measurements for each water sample. The ionic balance check
program compares the major cation to major anion results for each water sample
along with the electrical conductivity and pH. These data reports are also reviewed
using the professional judgment of the QA/QC Officer and corrective action is
initiated as needed.
The QA/QC Officer transfers completed data sets to the QA database, reviews
the data, and determines whether corrective action is required. If the data is
unsatisfactory, the QA/QC Officer submits a rerun sheet to the laboratory group to

reanalyze the rejected data sets. The QA/QC officer implements corrective actions as
needed based on this additional review of the QA statistics and control chart data.
When the QA/QC Officer verifies that all required corrective actions have been
implemented and documented, the data is of known and documentable quality. The
QA/QC Officer then provides the Laboratory Director with the printouts of the cation
anion balance and the final Certificate of Analysis report. The data is not reported to
the Laboratory Director until the QA/QC Officer is satisfied that the data are
acceptable.
Laboratory Director Data Reduction, Validation and Reporting
The Laboratory Director has the final responsibility to ensure that the
precision, accuracy, completeness, and comparability of the data are known and
documented. The Laboratory Director reviews all corrective actions taken. The
Director reviews sample results that have ion balances that are not comparable. The
Director then approves or rejects the data. Any additional corrective actions
identified by the Laboratory Director are investigated, documented and reviewed
before the Laboratory Director approves the final Certificate of Analysis report.
Electronic Signatures
The Laboratory Director uses an electronic signature for all Certificates of Analysis
(COA) generated. This electronic signature is unique to the individual and is secured
by a personal log-in identification username and password, which are periodically

Corrective and Preventive Action
The Laboratory Director and/or the Quality Manager are responsible for
initiating, monitoring and recording non-conformances and corrective actions (Refer
to SOP CLSOP4423-1004). Corrective Actions are recorded on the “Corrective
Action” form, CLFRM4423-0001 (Appendix A), which can be found in the Bentley
document control system.
Examples of non-conformances (random events) may include the following:
Continuing calibration verification (CCV) results not within method-defined
control limits
 Sample analyzed outside of maximum holding time limits
Loss of sample (broken glassware, spill, etc.)
Erroneous double spiking of sample with surrogate
Outlier for Proficiency Testing round, Round Robin, or Demonstration of
Capability
Examples of corrective actions (systematic events) may include the following:
Internal Quality Audit findings
External Assessment Deficiencies
Non-conformances which become systematic events
Becoming non-proficient with proficiency testing samples
Customer feedback or complaints

PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED
All Laboratory Employees and members of the QAQC group have the
authority, as appropriate, to stop work on samples when any aspect of the process
does not conform to laboratory requirements. The employee who stopped the work
shall immediately notify laboratory management (Laboratory Director, QA Manager,
or designee). Upon investigation of the issue, Laboratory Management will
authorize the resumption of work.
The essential steps in the corrective action system are as follows:
Assign responsibility for investigating the problem.
Investigate and determine the root cause of the problem (5-Why’s).
Once the root cause has been determined, implement an appropriate
corrective action to solve the problem.
Verify that the corrective action has resolved the problem.
Complete the documentation of the corrective action.
Additionally, as part of the Groundwater Characterization Monitoring
Plan (GCMP), KEIHL reviews the data for ion balance. If any sample fails the
criteria for this review, a request to verify the suspected analysis/analyses which
is/are contributing to this failure is requested by the QA/QC manager. When these
reruns result in changes to the original values, the analyst will enter a comment in
the LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System). Likewise, if the sample is

AUDITS AND SYSTEM REVIEWS
Internal System Audits and Managerial Review
The QA/QC Officer will conduct system audits annually. Audits are carried out
by trained and qualified personnel who are independent of the activity to be
audited. Personnel shall not audit their own activities except when it can be
demonstrated that an effective audit will be carried out. Internal audits include a
review of documentation, data record checks, logbook inspections, and laboratory
inspections conducted by the QA/QC Officer, his or her designee, or external
auditors. Internal audits are conducted to verify the staff has the equipment,
facilities, engineering controls, and procedures necessary to generate data of
acceptable, known, and documented quality. Any deficiencies identified in the
audit are documented and addressed as part of the audit process. Corrective
actions resulting from a system audit can include revising SOPs, reanalyzing
affected samples, or repairing instrumentation. A well-administered system audit
may isolate deficiencies regarding inadequate engineering controls within the
laboratory, such as an inoperable fume hood. The Laboratory Director conducts
independent reviews or audits as needed in response to problems identified through
the QA program or performance audit samples (both internal and external). The
Laboratory Director addresses safety and compliance problems. Analysts must

have appropriate controls in place to properly execute their job functions. The
QA/QC Officer maintains the system audit schedule.
External System Audits
Auditors from federal, state, and county agencies conduct external system
audits. External system audits are conducted as part of the accreditation, licensing,
and certification programs identified above and as oversight by government
agencies. The QA/QC Officer and Laboratory Director actively participate in the
audit. KEIHL responds to all external system audits through corrective action
deficiency reporting as required by the agency and by documenting and correcting
problems identified during the audit.
Performance Audits
Performance audits are an important component of the QA program. KEIHL
implements several types of checks to monitor the quality of analytical activity. A
few of these are listed below:
Internal quality control procedures using statistical techniques.
Replicate testing using the same or different test methods.
Use of certified reference materials or secondary reference
materials.
Re-testing of retained samples.
Ion balance on the major components of water samples.

Review the results for different, but related analysis of a sample.
i.e. Total vs. Dissolved.
Participate in proficiency testing or other interlaboratory
comparisons.
Performance audits include the analysis of a standard QC set: original, duplicates,
matrix spikes, matrix spike duplicates, blanks, and certified reference materials.
The performance audits are designed to verify the ability to correctly identify and
quantify sample concentrations in reference samples and blind QC samples.
Proficiency Test Studies
The Laboratory participates in several proficiency test studies listed below.
Environmental Monitoring under SDWA (WS), twice a year and CWA (WP),
twice a year, and RCRA (Soil Study) twice a year.
Laboratory certification program administered by the State of Utah
Department of Health, Bureau of Laboratory Services.
The Proficiency of Analytical Testing (PAT) program jointly administered
by AIHA and NIOSH, four times a year.
The information provided through participation in these programs is used to
evaluate laboratory performance in each section and to assist the QA/QC Officer,
Laboratory Director, and external audit teams in assessing analytical methods that
require increased attention to correct any deficiencies. Sample information for
external performance evaluation samples is recorded and tracked in the LIMS

Accreditation: the process by which an agency or organization evaluates and
recognizes a program of study or an institution as meeting certain predetermined
qualifications or standards, thereby accrediting the laboratory.
Assessment: the evaluation process used to measure the performance or
effectiveness of a system and its elements. As used here, assessment is an all-
inclusive term used to denote any of the following: audits, performance evaluations,
management reviews, peer reviews, inspections, and surveillance.
Accuracy: a data quality indicator. The degree of agreement between an observed
value and an accepted reference value. Accuracy includes a combination of random
error (precision) and systematic error (bias) components, which are due to sampling
and analytical operations.
Analyte: means the substance or thing for which a sample is analyzed to determine
its presence or quantity.
Analytical Reagent (AR) Grade: designation for the high purity of certain chemical
reagents and solvents given the American Chemical Society.
Audit: A systematic evaluation to determine the conformance to quantitative
specifications of some operational function or activity.
Batch: environmental samples, which are prepared and/or analyzed together with the
same process and personnel, using the same lot(s) of reagents. A preparation batch
is composed of one to 20 environmental samples of the same NELAC-defined matrix,
meeting the above mentioned criteria and with a maximum time between the start of
processing of the first and last sample in the batch to be 24 hours. An analytical batch
is composed of prepared environmental samples, extracts, digestates or
concentrates) which are analyzed together as a group. An analytical batch can include
prepared samples originating from various environmental matrices and can exceed 20
samples.

SUMMARY Ground water conditions are monitored to evaluate ground water quality and the potential impacts on ground water beneath and near Rio Tinto Kennecott (RTK) facilities. Specific objectives of the ground water monitoring conducted by RTK are to: 1) establish baseline
ground water quality and hydrogeologic conditions; 2) identify areas where operations may have impacted ground water conditions; 3) monitor ground water quality in areas impacted by operations; 4) monitor progress of ground water cleanup efforts, 5) provide continued monitoring in the vicinity of current operations to detect ground water quality impacts should they occur; 6) collect data for use in the classification of ground water; and, 7) comply with permit requirements.
The purpose of this Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan is to set forth a project plan which utilizes standardized procedures and methods for the collection and review of ground water monitoring data. The following documents are incorporated within this Plan: 1) Health and Safety Plan; 2) Quality Assurance Project Plan; and 3) Standard Operating Procedures for Ground Water Sampling. The Health and Safety Plan addresses health and safety requirements for the conduct of the field work. The Quality Assurance Project Plan presents: 1) project organization and responsibilities; 2) quality assurance objectives for the collection of data in terms of precision, accuracy, representativeness, comparability, and
completeness; 3) analytical procedures; and 4) guidelines for data verification and reporting, internal quality control checks, performance and systems audits, and corrective actions. The Standard Operating Procedures include all field activities associated with ground water
sampling. Together these documents provide a systematic approach to be used in the collection of ground water monitoring data and the evaluation of regional baseline conditions when needed. The guidance and standard operating procedures will help to ensure a

SECTION 1 OVERVIEW

1.1 Objectives RTK currently utilizes an extensive ground water monitoring system to monitor the ground water levels and water quality in the vicinity of its facilities. Specific objectives of the ground water monitoring program conducted by RTK
have been to:
• Establish baseline ground water quality and hydrogeologic conditions.
• Identify areas where operations may have impacted ground water quality.
• Monitor ground water quality in areas impacted by operations.
• Monitor progress of ground water cleanup efforts.
• Provide continued monitoring in the vicinity of current operations to detect ground water quality changes should they occur.
• Assess adequacy of source control measures.
• Support the determination of ground water classifications; and
• Comply with permit monitoring requirements.

1.2 Purpose of Plan The purpose of this Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan (GCMP) is to establish a project plan which standardizes procedures and methods for the
collection, analysis and reporting of ground water monitoring data. Therefore, a systematic approach will be used in the collection of monitoring data and the evaluation of ground water quality.
This document identifies the goals and objectives of the program and identifies project tasks. Requirements for data reporting and review, as well as periodic review of this Plan are included, along with the following documents:

• Health and Safety Plan (HSP).
• Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP).
• Standard Operating Procedures for Water Sampling (SOP).

The HSP addresses health and safety requirements for conducting fieldwork. The QAPP presents: 1) project organization and responsibilities; 2) quality assurance objectives for the collection of data in terms of precision, accuracy, representativeness, comparability, and completeness; 3) analytical parameters; and 4) guidelines for data verification and reporting, internal quality control checks, performance and systems audits, and corrective actions. The SOP presents standard operating procedures for field activities, including ground water sample collection and field measurements.

Site-specific project plans to evaluate contaminant sources, plume migration, and any need for remedial actions will be developed as necessary, independent of this

5
GCMP. However, the procedures presented here will be used to collect the necessary data for such evaluations. As the need for additional field procedures and
data evaluation techniques becomes evident during the planning and implementation of such projects, this GCMP will be amended to include those items. Monitoring locations, analytical parameters, and frequency of sampling will also be
reviewed and updated regularly (unless specified in permits) as directed in this GCMP. Updates will be based on an analysis of results for each sampling point and the data needs for specific facility areas.

SECTION 2 SITE SETTING AND BACKGROUND
This section provides the site setting as well as background information on operations and monitoring conducted on RTK property. For discussion purposes, the property is subdivided into two areas, the Great Salt Lake Area (GSL) and the Southwest Jordan Valley Area (SWJV). The SWJV area includes all areas
associated with the Bingham Mine and the Copperton Concentrator. Features include the Mine, the leach water collection system, the leach and storm water reservoirs and the historic evaporation ponds. The locations of ground water monitoring points for the SWJV Area are shown in Plate 2. The GSL area includes
the general area of the Utah Copper facilities associated with the concentrating, tailings disposal, smelting, and refining of metals. The locations of established ground water monitoring points are shown in Plate 1. RTK has conducted two Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Studies (RI/FS) of
mining- related contamination in groundwater. The first RI/FS is the area east of the mine dumps in the southwestern Jordan Valley. The second RI/FS consists of the areas beneath and down-gradient of the Smelter and Refinery.
In addition, other extensive ground water studies completed in these areas have resulted in the acquisition of baseline ground water data. The hydrogeologic setting and current ground water conditions beneath RTK property are described in the "Hydrogeologic Report for the Great Salt Lake Area" (KUC, 1992a) and in "Ground Water Assessment Report the Southwestern Jordan Valley Area" (KUC, 1992b). Ground water impacts may result from natural leaching of mineralized outcroppings, commercial leaching processes, ground water pumping, storage of water in surface water impoundments, seepage from irrigation and water supply canals, and the infiltration of precipitation. In order for RTK to evaluate the potential past and present impacts on ground water beneath and near its facilities, RTK has established a ground water monitoring network to monitor and evaluate ground water conditions. Wells utilized in the ground water monitoring network include RTK monitoring wells, State, City, and County monitoring wells, RTK production wells,
and public and residential supply wells.

SECTION 3 INITIAL EVALUATION
3.1 Ground Water Ground water samples have previously been collected from many of the monitoring wells included in this monitoring program. Samples were predominately collected by

6
the RTK Sampling Crews and analyzed by the RTK Environmental Laboratory. The analytical results for samples collected and analyzed by RTK and sampling performed
by others are contained in the RTK Environmental Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and are summarized in Attachments to the Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan issued in April of 1992. Data collected
are presented in the Quarterly Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Reports and Quarterly Quality Assurance Reports.
SECTION 4 RATIONALE

4.1 Objectives and Approach The general objective of this monitoring program is to better define and document
current ground water quality conditions near RTK's operations. Annual data reviews and evaluations will determine the number and frequency of sampling points monitored to achieve the objectives. This document identifies the
procedures to be used to evaluate and modify the number of points sampled and the sampling frequency.
4.2 Monitoring Well Selection
Monitoring well selection is grouped into three categories: 1) Objectives of ground water monitoring in the Great Salt Lake area, 2) Objectives of
ground water monitoring in the southwestern Jordan Valley, and 3) Regulatory required sampling in both of these areas.
Detailed information used to define the objectives of the monitoring programs in the GSL area and the SWJV is compiled in two remedial investigations and feasibility studies (RI/FS) of mining-related contamination in groundwater. Both
are conducted by RTK. The following sections identify the sampling points included in this GCMP and the
general rationale for their inclusion. Sample point locations are shown on Plates 1 and 2. Ground water monitoring well construction details in Attachment 1. The hydrogeologic conditions and types of operations vary depending on site location and facility use. Therefore, the monitoring programs in each location have different objectives and approaches. Table 1 is an example of a monitoring schedule included in the Annual Report, which summarizes the rationale for the wells, current monitoring frequencies, and monitoring parameters proposed for the current monitoring program. The rationale for selection of the monitoring points is
summarized in the following sections.

4.2.1 Great Salt Lake Area The general objective of the monitoring program for the Great Salt Lake Area is to establish and document current local ground water and surface water conditions and trends and to collect the data required to meet existing, as well as anticipated future, regulatory requirements. A summary of ground water conditions in this area is provided in the "Hydrogeologic Report for the Great Salt Lake Area" (RTK, 1992a.)

7
There exists an extensive network of shallow and deep ground water monitoring
wells and piezometers in the GSL area. The monitoring wells included in this GCMP were installed near facilities at the north end of RTK property to monitor potential effects resulting from the Tailings Impoundment, Refinery, Smelter, as well as
potential effects from other facilities.
These wells were used to establish the areal and vertical distribution of aquifers and aquitards, the direction and velocity of ground water flow in and between each aquifer, and the chemical composition of the water in each aquifer.
State, County, and City monitoring wells were used to investigate ground water conditions near the Tailings Impoundment and in the vicinity of the City and County landfills up-gradient of the Tailings Impoundment (Slam 1989a, 1989b). These wells were included in the monitoring program in 1991 in order to further document the ground water conditions but will no longer be sampled.

4.2.1.1 Baseline Program In order to accomplish the monitoring objectives identified for the GSL area, a
program of baseline monitoring was established. The basis of this program was to collect four quarterly rounds of ground water samples for a comprehensive suite of analytes from each well. After collection of the baseline data, these monitoring data
were reviewed to evaluate the need for continued monitoring, the need for expansion of the monitoring system, and the types of analyses required.
4.2.1.2 North Zone Groundwater The general objective of the monitoring program in the North Zone Groundwater Operation, Maintenance, and Replacement Plan (OM&R Plan) (in preparation) is to track the nature and extent of ground water contamination from the smelter and refinery. Specifically, the program: 1. monitors the natural attenuation of the selenium plume from the refinery. 2. monitors the natural attenuation of the selenium and arsenic plumes at the smelter. 3. monitors the effectiveness of source control actions taken at the smelter and refinery and
4. provides baseline data concerning background water quality. Oversight for the OM&R Plan is provided by Environmental Protection Agency Region VIII (EPA), Utah Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ), and a Technical Review Committee (TRC) of various interested parties. The OM&R Plan interfaces with the GCMP in two significant areas. First, all of the data generated and used in the OM&R Plan is collected from monitoring wells that are part of the
GCMP.
The second important relationship between the OM&R Plan and the GCMP is that all of the water data collected required for the OM&R Plan is subjected to the quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) standards established in the GCMP.

8
4.2.2.3 Continued Monitoring Program All baseline data have been reviewed to evaluate additional monitoring
requirements. Evaluation of these requirements were based on the following:
• Aberrant data - Graphs of analytical parameters as a function of time were constructed to identify data that appear to be erroneous or deviate significantly from established data trends. If these aberrant data appeared to significantly affect the interpretation of the data for the well, additional frequent monitoring was recommended. This consideration was generally limited to the analytical constituents TDS, As, Se, Cu and Cd.
• Identification of significant temporal data trends - Evaluation of the existing data indicates many current temporal changes in the data. These changes imply that ground water conditions are changing in response to
some stimulus. In many cases, these changes appear to be in response to seasonal fluctuation or other observable factors effecting ground water conditions. Where these trends are unusual, unexplained, and or appear
to be significant to the understanding of ground water conditions, the wells displaying these changes were selected for additional monitoring at a frequency that would further document the presence or absence of the trend.

• Establishment of a longer or more detailed sampling history - Review of the data showed many wells in which the variation of critical analytes was greater or less than expected and additional analyses are required to identify the nature and extent of the variation. Long-term monitoring of
potentially affected wells - In a number of cases, particularly in the vicinity of the Refinery, wells were identified that may have been affected by RTK operations.

Current Wells and sampling frequencies for project plans are based on one or more of the factors identified above and are identified and submitted in the Annual Report Table 1.
4.2.2 Southwest Jordan Valley Area The general objective of the monitoring program in the Southwest Jordan Valley Area is to monitor groundwater plume containment and cleanup in order to meet
RTK monitoring obligations under the South Facilities Groundwater Operations, Maintenance, and Replacement Plan (RTK, 2009). Specifically, the program: 1. monitors the containment and cleanup of the low pH and elevated metals plume. 2. monitors the containment and cleanup of the plume containing elevated
sulfate/TDS concentrations. 3. monitors the effectiveness of the leach collection system at the toe of the waste rock dumps. 4. monitors the water quality in the areas near 11800 South Street where municipal, domestic and irrigation water supply wells are located near or down gradient of the elevated sulfate/TDS plume.

9
5. meets existing, as well as, anticipated future monitoring requirements; and 6. provides baseline data concerning background water quality. The program
will also monitor the effectiveness of source-control actions at the Bingham Reservoir and the Eastside Collection System.
Areas affected by RTK and pre-RTK operations have been defined using the existing database. A summary of the ground water and surface water results provided to date are given in "Ground Water Assessment Report of the
Southwestern Jordan Valley Utah" (KUC, 1992b, RIFS KUC 1998, and RD/RA KUC 2002). The 1998 SWJV RI report documents the field investigations conducted by RTK, presents the site characteristics, assesses the nature and extent of mining-related contamination, provides human health and ecological risk assessments, and
offers conclusions regarding the risk to human health and the environment posed by mining related contamination. The study area covered by the RI extends from the RTK waste rock disposal areas on the eastern edge of the Oquirrh Mountains
to the Jordan River. It is bounded on the north at approximately 7800 South Street and on the south by the foothills of the Traverse Mountains. RTK funded and conducted the work for the RI/FS with oversight by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region VIII, the State of Utah Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ) and a Technical Review Committee (TRC). The activities conducted by RTK were consistent with applicable guidance under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA also known as Superfund), and with requirements of the National Contingency Plan (NCP).
In addition to the RI report, a well inventory of the SWJV was conducted to determine the existence and use of all wells in the southwest part of the valley. This information has been used to review current GCMP sampling locations and identify changes to be made in future GCMP schedules.
4.2.2.1 Continued Monitoring Program Sampling of a select group of wells associated with the Bingham Creek Reservoir low-pH, elevated-metals plume will generally occur biannually in order to monitor chemistry changes associated with extraction of the plume. On the leading (eastern) edge of the low-pH plume, monitoring of select wells will occur on a semiannual basis to track advancement of the plume. All samples from these wells will be analyzed for Basic and Major analytical suites plus dissolved iron, aluminum, manganese, and acidity.

Selected wells completed in portions of the aquifer that contain elevated sulfate but not low-pH will be monitored for Basic and Major group analytes. These wells are mostly completed in the halo of elevated sulfate surrounding the Bingham
Creek Reservoir low-pH plume. Key wells located in the areas between and around the B2G1193–BFG1200 and
West Jordan City well fields will be sampled on a quarterly, semiannual or annual

10
basis to monitor movement of the elevated-sulfate plume. All samples from these wells will be analyzed for Basic group analytes and some for Major group analytes
as well. The higher monitoring frequency of these wells over those previously listed is warranted by concerns of potential effects on third party interests. Other wells that are sampled because of third party concerns include privately or municipally
owned wells and RTK wells completed near areas where third parties are using water, such as irrigation wells near the elevated-sulfate plume east of the Former RTK Evaporation Ponds.

Many monitoring wells located immediately down-gradient of the leach collection system are included in regulatory monitoring and are listed in the following section. A few wells located in this area but not included in any permit required monitoring program will be sampled annually for Basic and Major analytical suites. Several wells will be monitored for changes in Basic and Major group analytes as
part of approved Drinking Water Source Protection plans, and several production wells will be sampled quarterly or annually to monitor water quality used at various RTK facilities.

4.2.3 Regulatory Monitoring Requirements RTK has six groundwater discharge permits issued by the State of Utah which
require groundwater monitoring for compliance with the permits. Portions of both the SWJV and GSL are under one or more of the following permits:
• Large and Small Bingham Reservoirs - UGW350006
• Smelter – UGW350008
• Bingham Canyon Mine and Water Collection System – UGW350010
• Tailings Impoundment – UGW350011
• Magna Process Water Reservoir Facility – UGW350015
• Copperton Concentrator – UGW350017
• Barneys Canyon – UGW350001
4.3 Selection of Analytical Parameters Based on the review of the existing data and regulatory (potential as well as
existing) requirements, different groups of analytical parameters have been identified as listed below:

• Basic
• Major Ions
• Minor Ions
• Trace Metals 1, Trace Metals 2, Trace Metals 3
• Mercury
• Radionuclides
• Other.

11
Basic
The basic group of analyses is comprised of the analytes that are sensitive to
changes in ground water quality that could result from RTK's operations. The analytes included in the basic group are listed in Table 2 and include conductivity, pH, TDS, TSS, sulfate, chloride. Arsenic, selenium, copper, lead, zinc, and cadmium are analyzed for dissolved concentrations only unless totals are requested. Significant changes in ground water conditions potentially caused by RTK's operations can be detected early through monitoring of only these analytes.

Major Ions
The Major Ions group, when combined with the Basic Parameter group provides sufficient analyses to allow for the calculation of ionic and mass balances. This list of constituents is required for all wells monitored to satisfy monitoring requirements to meet the conditions of Ground Water Discharge Permits. The analyses included in Major Ion group are listed in Table 2 and include: alkalinity, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium.
Minor Ions
The Minor Ion group adds some minor ions and indicator parameters that provide additional insight into the nature of the water sampled. The primary use of these
constituents is for the initial characterization of water chemistry. This group is commonly monitored where the water is believed to be at a reducing potential. The analyses included in the Minor Ion group are listed in Table 2 and include: fluoride,
nitrate, nitrite, phosphorus, dissolved oxygen, Eh, ferrous iron, and sulfide.
Trace Metals
The trace metals have been divided into three groups as follows:
Trace Metals 1 This group includes the trace metals barium, chromium, and silver. These metals are the most commonly requested trace metals. These trace metals have MCL’s under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and with the basic group from above contain the eight RCRA metals. Trace Metals 2 This group includes the metals iron, manganese, molybdenum, and nickel. These metals are added to include the common trace metals that have only secondary standards under the SDWA. Trace Metals 3 This group includes the trace metals aluminum, antimony, beryllium, boron, thallium, and titanium, which
are rarely requested.
Radionuclides The radionuclide group includes the analytes: radium 226, radium 228, total uranium, gross alpha and gross beta. This list of constituents is required for wells monitored to satisfy the conditions of the Ground Water Discharge Permit for the Tailings Impoundment in the area near the former Gypsum
Tailings Impoundment.

12
Mercury Mercury analysis is done on total metals only. The analysis is
to satisfy the requirements of the ground water discharge permits as well as some of the drinking water requirements.
Other This is used to request additional analytes such as Cyanide (CN), Nitrates, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH), Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene, Xylene, and Naphthalene (BTEX-N) et al. In addition, a new category listed in this group as “Balance” will include the trace metals aluminum, iron, manganese, and also acidity. This category when requested on low pH water samples will provide a more complete geochemical analysis to obtain and calculate a charge balance.

4.4 Data Quality Objectives Data Review
The results of all sampling will be reviewed by the Project Manager (Principal Advisor Water Quality) or his designee upon receipt of analytical results from the laboratory. If based on a timely review of analytical data, any significant questions are raised regarding the quality or representativeness of the results, the well will be re-sampled.
Objectives
The data quality objectives of this Plan are discussed in detail in the Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) and summarized below:

• The precision objectives for analytical and field methods are: 1) within 25% of the relative percent difference or + (4) times the MDL (per 40 CFR Part 136, Ap. B Rev 1.1, July 1, 1992) whichever is greater, for duplicate samples; and 2) 75% to 125% recovery for matrix spike duplicates (70% to 130% for organic compounds). It is recognized that
these objectives may not be appropriate for certain parameters and for high TDS water; particularly containing high levels of chloride and sulfate.
• The accuracy objectives for analytical and field methods are: 1) less than the method quantitation limit for blank; and 2) 75% to 125% recovery for spikes if the concentration is 10 times or greater than the MDL, (70% to 130% for organic compounds). These objectives have been identified for relatively low TDS water and will vary with TDS.
• All sample collection and measurements will be performed in accordance with protocols and procedures documented in the QAPP and SOP to assure sample representativeness. All RTK Environmental and Industrial Hygiene Laboratory Procedures are available on the RTK Intranet. These documents are controlled through the Documentum Program.

13
• Every effort will be made to achieve data collection completeness.
• Comparability of data will be accomplished through the use of standard operating procedures.

SECTION 5 TASKS

The following tasks have been identified for the Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan:
TASK 1 Project Planning and Quality Assurance TASK 2 Sample Point Selection
TASK 3 Sampling
TASK 4 Site-wide Water-level Measurements TASK 5 Verification of Results and Data Evaluation TASK 6 Well Abandonment
TASK 7 New Well Construction
TASK 8 Annual Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Reports TASK 9 Periodic Update of Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan
5.1 TASK 1 - PROJECT PLANNING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE

This task consists of the planning, preparation, quality assurance planning, and coordination required maintaining and fully implementing this Plan. Project planning will continue throughout the project to ensure the achievement of project
objectives. The process for reviewing and updating the Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan is discussed in Task 9.
Quality assurance planning is documented in the QAPP. The QAPP lists the quality control samples to be collected in conjunction with routine monitoring in order to measure the precision, accuracy, representativeness, and comparability of field and laboratory techniques. Guidelines for data verification and reduction, internal quality control checks, performance and systems audits, and corrective actions are also presented in the QAPP.

5.2 TASK 2 - SAMPLE POINT SELECTION Wells considered for sampling were selected from the following groups of wells:
• RTK monitoring wells and piezometer
• RTK production wells
• State, county, and city monitoring wells
• Public and residential wells
• Municipal wells.

The selected wells and sampling frequency for these wells are listed in the current
Annual Report in Table 1. The general objectives and rationale for the selection of these wells are discussed in section 4.

14
5.2.1 Addition of New Monitoring Points Additional sampling points may be added to the monitoring program at a future
date, provided that the rationale for the addition of a sampling site is documented by submitting a Well Approval Form to the Project Manager for approval prior to inclusion to the network. Potential rationale for expanding the monitoring program
includes the identification of sampling points located in critical areas, replacement of existing sampling points which must be abandoned, and the identification of problem areas. Such documentation (to be filed in the Water Quality Data Filing
System) will include monitoring parameters, monitoring frequency, and previously collected monitoring data.
5.3 TASK 3 – SAMPLING Water sampling activities will be conducted in accordance with the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP). Procedures to be used in the collection of water samples include:

DC-01 through DC-07 Sample Documentation and Sample Handling MD-01 through MD-03 Equipment Maintenance and Decontamination QC-01 through QC-05 Quality Control Sampling GF-01 through GF-16 Measurement of Field Parameters GW-01 through GW-14 Collection of Ground Water Samples PW-01 through PW-15 Collection of Process Water Samples DW-01 through DW-09 Collection of Drinking Water Samples SW-01 through SW-11 Collection of Surface Water Samples SS-01 through SS-05 Collection of Sediment Samples.

5.4 TASK 4 - SITE-WIDE WATER LEVEL MEASUREMENTS In addition to the water level or hydraulic head measurements taken prior to each
sampling event, annual water level measurements, in select, monitoring wells will be made. These water levels will be completed as required by permit conditions and/or the needs of special projects. The measurements will be taken during the shortest elapsed time period that is feasible.
Site-wide water-level measurements will allow an evaluation of the relationships between surface water and the ground water potentiometric surface. Such
determinations are not possible using measurements taken at the time of sampling over several weeks or months.
Potentiometric information is required in order to evaluate the ground water regime with respect to flow velocity and direction. Details of the methods and procedures used to conduct these measurements are provided in the SOP.

5.5 TASK 5 - VERIFICATION OF RESULTS AND DATA EVALUATION Verification of analytical results will include ion balances (when complete analyses are conducted for major cations and anions), statistical checks against previous results, and spot checks of data transfer. Data management

15
is described in Section 5 of the QAPP.
5.6 TASK 6 - WELL ABANDONMENT
A monitoring well must be properly abandoned (i.e., filled or plugged with an "impermeable" material) if it will no longer be used due to the availability of nearby wells, access problems, susceptibility to flooding, lack of water in well, well
construction problems, or impending destruction due to construction activities on RTK property. A well must also be abandoned if the integrity of the annulus seal is in question. Lack of proper abandonment may result in a pathway for surface spills or cross-contamination between aquifers of different depth and quality. All monitoring well abandonments will be done in compliance with State of Utah Administrative Rules for Water Well Drillers. Procedures for monitoring well abandonment are provided in the SOP.
5.7 TASK 7 - NEW WELL CONSTRUCTION

The Project Manager assigned to a well installation project will select the appropriate drilling method based on expected subsurface conditions. The auger or vibratory sonic methods are appropriate for wells in lake bottom sediments (unconsolidated materials) to depths of about 100 feet. Vibratory sonic and mud or air rotary and cable tool are appropriate for unconsolidated and consolidated formations of greater depths. The water or mud used with rotary or cable tool methods must be free of contaminants and of a known composition. Procedures for new well construction are provided in the SOP.
5.8 TASK 8 - GROUND WATER CHARACTERIZATION AND MONITORING REPORTS Brief reports will be written within 90 days after the end of each quarter for internal
use to summarize results for the previous three months. An Annual Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Report will present the results of the previous year's monitoring and the proposed monitoring plan for the current year. This report
will be prepared by March 31 for each monitoring year (e.g., January 1 through December 31) to allow a three-month turnaround time for laboratory analyses and report preparation. The report outline will generally adhere to the following:

1.0 Summary
2.0 Introduction
3.0 Quality Assurance Summary
4.0 Summary of Water Quality Analyses
5.0 Ground Water Characterization
6.0 Well Abandonment
7.0 New Well Construction
8.0 Program Changes
9.0 Recommendations for Program Changes

16
5.9 TASK 9 - UPDATE OF GROUND WATER CHARACTERIZATION AND MONITORING PLAN

The Ground Water Characterization and Monitoring Plan is a working document. Updates may be made by documenting the change to the file and reporting the change in the quarterly and annual monitoring reports. The Supervisor Sampling
will review this Plan in September of each year. After completion of this review, the manager will determine whether or not a formal revision is needed.
The Utah State Division of Water Quality will be notified prior to implementing any changes to this document that will significantly affect the collection and analysis of regulatory required samples.

SECTION 6 SCHEDULE A comprehensive sampling and monitoring schedule of sampling at each point will be included in the Annual Reports Table 1. Water levels are to be measured as required by the sampling schedule in the Table 1. Annual measurements will be done in the summer or late fall.

Attachment 1. Health and Safety Plan
All RTK employees will adhere to the following documents: RTK's Safety and Facilities Standards Manual and the Safety and Health Policy stated therein; and,
RTK’s Environmental Response Health and Safety Plan

The sampling crew will attend site-specific training annually or as required at each plant. In
general, crewmembers will wear all required PPE and abide to all safety rules and regulations at
each plant Existing site information indicates that heavy metals in the soil are not present at
hazardous levels that could pose a significant risk to sampling crew while conducting sampling.
Historical ground water and surface water monitoring data do not warrant health concerns
related to skin exposure or vapor inhalation. Therefore, no special procedures or protective
equipment is required during sampling.
Well abandonment and installation activities pose a potentially higher health and safety risk to
on-site personnel. Therefore, site-specific health and safety plans will be developed for each
project.

2.2 PROCEDURE DC-02 SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION
A sample coding system will be used to identify each sample collected. This coding system will ensure unique
sample identification and provide a tracking record to allow retrieval of information about a particular sample.
All samples will be identified by a sample identification number utilizing a maximum of eight characters. Within this
sample identification number is a unique number identifying the site. Alphabetic characters are used to denote
general location and sample depth.
For existing sites, the sample identification number will be designated as identified in Table DC-1. Because of
past changes in the well identification coding system, the characters preceding the site number may have varied
in the past. All future references to the sampling site should be as identified in Table DC-1.

New sampling locations will be designated as discussed below:
Sample Designation for New Sites:
The sample identification number will consist of the following components for the eight-letter identification code:
Area Sample Location Depth Designation Type
Please refer to Attachments - Table DC-1 below for a list of approved sample locations.

SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 14 of 147
The components of the sample identification number are a two-letter area identification acronym followed by a
single letter identifying the medium sampled, followed by a unique four-digit sampling location identification
number and a single letter code identifying the depth of sample collection. All sample identification numbers are
unique and must be approved by the Sampling Supervisor. The procedures for obtaining a new well identification
number are provided in Procedure GF-14.
All samples collected will be identified using this eight-character sample identification number. A specific sample
collected at a location will be identified as unique by the date on which the sample was collected. The date will be
identified using the following six-digit number:
__ __ __ __ __ __
Month Day Year
The following sections describe each portion of the sampling point identification number.
Area Designation Acronym
The area designation acronym consists of a two-letter code which identifies a specific area of RTK. Approved
area designation codes are identified in Table DC-2.
The locations designated by these codes are shown on Plates 1 through 3. Other letters may be used, with the
approval of the Sampling Supervisor, if they are consistent with earlier location names and will create less
confusion.
Acronyms and the area represented by the acronym are provided below:

2.5 PROCEDURE DC-05: SAMPLE CUSTODY
The Analytical Request Sheet will serve to document the analytical request and Sample Chain of Custody
documentation. Data for this form (Figure DC-02) will be entered into field laptops by the sampler at the time
of sample collection as follows:
Sheet Request No.: Reserved for laboratory use.
Sample Submitted by: The name of person requesting the sample.
Report Results to: The name of person receiving results.
Lab I.D. #: Laboratory I.D # to be entered by laboratory personnel.
Sample ID #: Sample Identification Number.
Date, Time: Date and time sampling sheet is completed.
Analyses Requested: The analyses to be performed for the sample - The standard suite of analyses to
be performed on each sample is coded into the laboratory's computer system. If
this standard suite of analyses is to be run, the analyses will be specified by
writing GCMP in the analyses requested column of the form. If other analyses
are requested, they must be explicitly specified.
Sample Preservation: Samples will be preserved as detailed in Procedure DC-06. The presence of ice
in the cooler when shipping will also be noted on the Analytical Request Form.
Surrendered by: The signature of person delivering the sample or the person who has prepared
the sample for to the Laboratory.
Received by: The signature of the laboratory staff member receiving the samples.
Comments/Special
Instructions: Additional comments or instructions.

After collection, the sample will be stored in a secure manner and packed in ice until delivered to the
laboratory cooler.
Laboratory personnel will note any damaged sample containers or discrepancies between the sample label
and information on the form. The presence (or absence) of ice in the cooler will be documented on the
Analytical Request Form. The manager of KEL will contact the Field Team Leader or the Supervisor of
Environmental Sampling to resolve any problems.

Please refer to Attachments - An example of the analytical request sheet is presented in Figure DC-2,

2.7 PROCEDURE DC-07: ELECTRONIC FIELD DATA
COLLECTION SYSTEM
Laptop/Desktop computers are used for field data documentation. Appropriate information is entered into the
computer at each site and regenerated to a hard copy later in the day, at the Environmental Laboratory. Use
laptop computers as follows:
1. Obtain a laptop/desktop computer. Be sure it contains the “Groundwater program” by turning on the
computer and locating the icon in the Windows program. Re-charge laptop computers when they are not
in use.
2. Place the mouse arrow on the icon and double click on the icon with the left mouse button to bring up the
main “Groundwater” screen.
3. To enter a sampling site, click on the “New Well” box on the main screen. Scroll down until you find the
sample site that you want and then left click on the sample number. You can also enter the Sample site
by highlighting the location button and manually typing the site I.D. into the box. You will receive a prompt
asking you if you want to “Start a New Well”. Click “Yes”. The date and time will be automatically inserted
with the date and time of that exact moment. Date and time may be edited to give a more accurate arrival
time.
4. Enter the following information as indicated by labels on the individual boxes:
• Samplers Initials
• Depth to water reading
• Measured or assumed total depth of well
• Calculated purge volume (if necessary, no purge volume from table)
• Select the type of pump used (if no pump used select Grab)
• Pump identification number (if necessary)
5. At the end of each sampling event, calculate the total volume purged by multiplying the calculated flow
rate by the total minutes the water was being purged. Enter the calculated volume in the “Total Volume
Pumped” box.
6. To activate the remarks window, place the mouse arrow on the “Remarks window” found in the “Remarks”
box and double click with the left mouse button. Record the appropriate information such as other
samplers on site, well conditions, changes in flow rate, or any other comments that are believed to be
necessary. To close the remarks window, click on the “X” in the box at the upper right-hand corner of the
“Remarks” window.
7. Record the number of sample bottles filled and submitted for analysis during the sampling event in the
“Number of Bottles” box.
8. Record the time the sampling event was completed in the “Completion Time” box.
9. If the sampler leaves the well for any amount of time during the purge of the well, the time spent away
from the well must be recorded in the “Time Spent Away from Well” box.

10. The “Observation” button creates a new data entry line for each field measurement sampling event. When
activated a new line will be created with the date, and time automatically inserted. The date and time may
be edited to give a more accurate sampling time. The “Observation” pane is a tool bar that contains the
functions used for entering field data.
Click on the “Observation” box and the observation window will appear. Double click anywhere on the
window and a window will appear to enter a single sampling observation. The following are entered in this
window:
• Flow
• Conductivity
• Temperature
• pH
• Sampling Time
• Date
Once the desired data has been entered, click on the “Done” button. Repeat this procedure until all sampling
observations have been entered and then click “Close” on the main observation screen.
11. The “New Well” button creates a new field data entry screen upon the arrival or start of a new sampling
event.
12. To generate a hard copy of the field data sheet and the analytical request sheet and chain of custody the
sampler must connect the laptop computer to the KEL server by inserting the LAN (RJ-45) cable to the
specified slot in the computer. The user must be logged on to their computer using the user name
“Ranch” and the current password to be able to log on the KEL server. Once the cable is connected, the
computer will automatically detect the computer and will connect to the server. Open the “Groundwater”
program, and then click on the “Utilities” button on the main screen. Then click on the “Check In” button. A
screen will then appear giving the options to print “Transfer to Server”, “COC (Chain of Custody)”, and
“Field Sheets”, then click on the respective document that you need. When the window of the document
appears, you will be prompted that a copy has been placed on the server. To print a copy, click on the
“Print” and then you will be prompted with a “Print Setup” screen. Once settings are correct, click on “OK”
to print document.
13. To export the data to the RTK lab’s server, return to the “Check-in” screen of the “Utilities” section and click
on “Transfer to Server”. A bar graph will show the progress of the transfer. The program will then export the
data and give a completed transfer message.
14. After the hard copies have been generated and have been reviewed for any anomalous data and the data
has been transferred to the RTK lab’s server, delete the data from the computer’s memory. To delete, select
“Utilities” from the main “Groundwater” screen and click on the “Check Out” button. You will be prompted
several times asking you if you are sure that your data will be deleted. This will remove the data that has
been exported and should refresh the screen and clear all samples saved in the memory.
15. Fill in the appropriate information on the field data sheet such as field logbook reference numbers and
circling methods of measurements. Fill in the appropriate information on the analytical request sheets such
SOP – Groundwater Sampling

Page 25 of 147
3.1 PROCEDURE MD-01: EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE
Equipment and instrument maintenance is required to ensure that accurate data are collected during field
investigations with minimal equipment problems. This procedure discusses the required field maintenance.
Procedure GF-01 includes equipment calibration steps. In addition to these procedures, consult instrument
manuals for the proper preventative maintenance and calibration details for each instrument.
Routine daily maintenance procedures will be conducted in the field to ensure that equipment is operable:
1. Remove surface dirt and debris.
2. Replace disposable parts (e.g., probe membranes) as required by equipment manual.
3. Store equipment in a secure, dry place, protected from dust, wind, and precipitation.
4. Large equipment stored outside will be protected by covering sensitive parts to protect them from dust,
wind, and precipitation.
5. Inspect equipment and instruments for possible problems (e.g., cracked or clogged lines or tubing, weak
batteries) daily, and
6. Charge battery packs for equipment when not in use and when necessary. All equipment maintenance
will be documented in the field logbook.

3.2 PROCEDURE MD-02: EQUIPMENT DECONTAMINATION
Decontaminate all non-disposable equipment used for the collection, preparation, preservation, and storage of
samples prior to their use and after each subsequent use.
The materials needed for decontamination are dependent upon the equipment to be cleaned. The following is a
list of equipment to be used during decontamination:
• Cleaning solutions, tap water, and de-ionized/distilled water for the final rinse.
• Storage vessels to transport large volumes of de-ionized/ distilled water to the site.
• Buckets and wash basins for use in the washing and rinsing of equipment.
• Paper or cloth towels and Chemwipes. For use in cleaning all outside surfaces or surfaces that do not come into contact with the sample; and, • Plastic garbage bags to contain all disposable items (gloves, paper towels, etc.).
Decontaminate meters measuring general field parameters and glassware as described below:
• Rinse equipment for several seconds with de-ionized/distilled water.
• Rinse two times with the water that is being sampled before collecting a sample for the parameters being
measured.
• Periodically, at the sampler’s discretion, glassware will be immersed in a 10% hydrochloric acid solution,
followed by manually scrubbing with a non-phosphate detergent.
Decontaminate non-disposable sampling equipment such as stainless-steel buckets, bailers, pumps, and dippers
as described below:
• Manually scrub with a non-phosphate detergent. Hot water if the equipment is used in a petroleum
contaminated well.
• Rinse with tap water, and then with de-ionized/distilled water.
• Rinse three times with de-ionized/distilled water.
• If sampling for organic compounds, rinse with pesticide-grade acetone or pesticide-grade methanol.
• Air dry equipment; and,
• Place all disposal items into plastic garbage bags and transport to the appropriate garbage receptacle on
RTK property.
Larger pieces of equipment require specialized decontamination procedures. The small-diameter evacuation pumps
will be decontaminated by rinsing the exterior of the pump, and the portion of the hose that was immersed, with
clean tap water. The interior will be decontaminated by placing the pump intake into a five-gallon container filled
with clean tap water and by pumping the water through the pump and hose. After the tap water wash, the pump will
be appropriately decontaminated as per the above procedures using de-ionized/ distilled water in the second tank.
The tubing used for the Bennett pump will be decontaminated by pumping de-ionized/distilled water through the
tubing. The outside of the tubing will be decontaminated by rinsing with de-ionized/ distilled water.

Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 27 of 147
A pressure sprayer steam cleaning can be used to effectively decontaminate the outside of the pump and tubing.
At locations where a clean tap water source is available, the submersible pump will also be decontaminated by
pumping 50 to 75-gallons through it and the discharge tubing. A clean 35-gallon or larger, plastic barrel may be
used for this purpose.
All disposal items will be placed in plastic garbage bags and transported to the appropriate garbage receptacle on
RTK property.
Rinseate will be disposed of as described in Procedure GW-06.

3.3 PROCEDURE MD-03: MAINTENANCE AND
CALIBRATION OF WATER LEVEL METERS
All water level meters will be calibrated annually or after any repairs to ensure the marks on the tape used for
measurement of the water levels are in the correct position, and that the tape has not slipped. The calibration
shall be made to a steel tape. If these measurements show the marking to be incorrect or that the tape has
stretched more than 0.1 percent of its length, the wire will be repaired or replaced.
The water level probe will be checked, cleaned, and or replaced whenever a clear and distinct signal is not
obtained when making water level measurements. If probe wire repair results in the cutting of the water level
meters measurement line, the wire beneath the cut will be replaced with wire containing the proper measuring
marks and factory-made splice joints.

4 QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLING
This section presents procedures for general field measurement activities. Quality control (QC) samples will be
collected to measure accuracy and precision of analyses as affected by field methodologies. Field QC samples
appropriate to water sampling include trip blanks, equipment rinseate blanks, duplicates, and external laboratory
duplicates. Rates of QC sample collection is specified in the project plan. QC samples will be documented and
handled in the same manner as other samples prior to submittal to the laboratory (see Procedures).

SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 30 of 147
4.1 PROCEDURES QC-01: BLIND DUPLICATES
Duplicates will be collected at a rate specified in the project plan, generally one duplicate will be collected for
every twenty (20) sample points. At least one duplicate sample will be collected from each facility that requires
ground water monitoring for a Ground Water Discharge Permit each quarter. The sites selected for the collection
of duplicate samples will represent the general quality of water recently sampled. Duplicates should represent the
range of water quality sampled throughout the year. Additional duplicates will be collected, if there is a concern
that special problems may be encountered in particular samples that are not represented by other duplicate
samples.
Duplicates will be collected by alternately filling the primary and duplicate sampling containers to ensure that
representative samples are collected. The first three letters of the sample name will be "DUP", and the next three
numbers will indicate the sequence number for the duplicate sample. For example, “DUP63", where the number
“63" indicates the sixty-third duplicate sample collected. Each year the sequence will start over at 01.
The actual name of the sample duplicated will be recorded in the field logbook, and reported to the laboratory
after a final Certificate of Analysis is obtained.

Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 31 of 147
4.2 PROCEDURE QC-02: EXTERNAL LABORATORY
DUPLICATES
When required External laboratory duplicates will be collected by alternately filling the primary and duplicate
sample containers to ensure that representative samples are collected. When requested, an internal duplicate will
be collected at each sampling site where an external duplicate is collected. The first three letters of the sample
name will be "EXL", and the next three numbers will indicate the sequence number for the duplicate sample. For
example, "EXL052", where the number "052" indicates the fifty- second external laboratory duplicate collected.
For new year the number sequence will start over and begin at "001".
The Project Plan may require the collection of as many as five external laboratory duplicates during a given
sampling event. When multiple sampling duplicates are required, the duplicate sample containers should be
alternately filled to ensure representative samples. A letter will be appended to the sample identification number
to uniquely identify each sample. For example, EXL052c would represent the third external duplicate.
The actual name of the sample duplicated will be recorded in the field logbook, and reported to the laboratory
after a final Certificate of Analysis is obtained.

4.3 PROCEDURE QC-03: MATRIX SPIKE SAMPLES
Matrix spiking will be done at the frequency identified in the Project Plan, generally one (1) a day or one (1) in
every twenty (20), whichever is greater. Laboratory personnel will select samples for matrix spiking. Additional
samples may be submitted by field personnel for laboratory spiking. Samples collected in the field for laboratory
spiking will be assigned a sample identification number starting with the letters "QC" followed by the numeric
portion of the sample point identification number and any trailing letters followed by the letters "SK" for the spike
sample and "SD" for the spike duplicate. For example, a sample collected from well "NEM478" for spiking would
be labeled "QC478SK" and the spike duplicate would be "QC478SD". Any spiking instructions must be clearly
identified on the analytical request form. Laboratory personnel will assign control numbers to all spiked samples.
Samples selected for spiking by field personnel will be collected by alternately filling the primary and spike sample
containers to ensure that the samples collected are representative of each other.

4.4 PROCEDURE QC-04: TRIP BLANKS
Trip blanks will be collected at the rate specified in the Project Plan. In general, the collection rate will be one (1)
for each day an equipment blank is collected and generally one (1) in every twenty (20) samples. Trip blank
samples will be submitted and labeled with a special identification number. The first three letters of the sample
name will be "TBK", and the next two or three numbers will indicate the sequence number for the trip blank. For
example, “TBK23", where the number “23" indicates the twenty-third trip blank collected. Each new year the
number sequence will start over and begin at “01". The sample containers will be prepared using the proper
preservatives and filled with ultrapure, deionized (Type II) reagent grade water. The containers will accompany
the sampling crew that day and will be delivered to the laboratory along with the other samples.

Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 34 of 147
4.5 PROCEDURE QC-05: EQUIPMENT RINSEATE BLANKS
For inorganic samples, a set of sample containers will be prepared (labeled and preserved) for approximately one
(1) in every twenty (20) sample points by each sampling device. The rate of equipment rinseate blank sampling
will be approximately 1 in 10 for sampling events that require organic analyses. The actual rate will be specified in
the Project Plan. The sample containers will be prepared using the proper preservatives and filled with the final
rinse water used on the sampling device (i.e., non-dedicated pump or bailer). The water used for this final rinse
will be reagent grade, ultrapure (Type II) de-ionized water. The first two or three letters of the sample name will be
"EQB", and the next three numbers will indicate the sequence number for the equipment rinseate. For example,
“EQB41", where the number “41" indicates the forty-first rinseate blank collected. Each new year the number
sequence will start over and begin at “01".
The final rinse of sampling equipment shall be collected as the rinseate blank. The rinsing procedure should, to
the extent possible, be the same as normally used during the sampling event. A description of the equipment
rinsed, and the name of the location sampled will be recorded on the field sampling form.

Page 36 of 147
5.1 PROCEDURE GF-01: EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION
This procedure discusses the calibration of field equipment. In addition to these procedures, consult instrument
manuals for the proper preventative maintenance and calibration details for each instrument.
Calibration solutions must not be reused and must be renewed prior to expiration dates stamped on the
manufacturer's container. Equipment calibration ensures that measurements obtained are accurate in reference
to a known standard. A calibration schedule is provided below for field equipment and instruments:

TABLE GF-1. Equipment Calibration Schedule
Instrument Frequency
pH Meter Prior to each site
Specific conductance meter Prior to each site
Dissolved oxygen meter Prior to each site
Turbidity meter Prior to each site when requested

5.1.1 CALIBRATION OF A PH METER:
1. Calibrate the pH meter prior to use at each sampling site in the field.
2. Use specific calibration techniques according to the manufacturer's instructions using two of the standard
buffer solutions (either 4 and 7 or 7 and 10, depending on the expected range of pH). If the meter does
not automatically compensate for temperature, the pH values of these buffers will be compensated for
temperature according to the values supplied on the manufacturer's bottle label. The temperature at
which the sample pH was measured will then be used to compensate for temperature on the meter.
3. Document calibration information in the Field Logbook. Information to be recorded includes all
calculations and adjustments made to the meter. The time, standard concentrations, and water
temperature, when not using a temperature compensating meter, will also be recorded.
5.1.2 CALIBRATION OF TEMPERATURE-COMPENSATING SPECIFIC
CONDUCTIVITY METER
1. Calibrate the meter in the field prior to use at each sampling site according to the manufacturer's
specifications. Check the calibration according to the manufacturer's recommendation to ensure that
proper measurements are taken.
2. In general measure the conductance of the standard using the meter to be calibrated. Make adjustments
as directed by the manufacturer's specifications.
3. Record calibration information in the Field Logbook or on the appropriate Field Data Sheet. Information to
be recorded includes all calculations, adjustments made to the meter, and accuracy prior to calibration.
Documentation will also include time of calibration, standard concentrations, and water temperature.

Page 37 of 147
5.1.3 CALIBRATION OF SPECIFIC CONDUCTIVITY METER (WITHOUT
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
1. Calibrate the specific conductance meter prior to use at each sampling site in the field, and document in
the Field Logbook. Documentation will include standard concentration(s), time of calibration, water
temperature, and all calculations. Check the calibration as necessary to ensure that proper
measurements are taken.
2. Calibrate in the field using a 1,000 mhos/cm (KCl) standard solution. The conductivity probe cell constant
will be calculated according to the formula: 𝐾𝐾=𝐸𝐸𝐶𝐶
Where:
K = probe cell constant (unitless)
C = measured conductance value of standard (mhos/cm); and
E = expected conductance at observed temperature of standard solution (see Table GF-2).
Using the cell constant calculated above, correct the field specific conductance measurements to 25°C using the
following equation: 𝑆𝑆=𝐾𝐾 ∗ 𝐶𝐶1 + [0.02(𝑇𝑇 −25)]
Where:
S = specific conductance at 25°C (mhos/cm).
K = cell constant calculated above.
C = specific conductance (mhos/cm) measured in field; and
T = temperature (°C) of sample in which conductance was measured.
3. Document calibration details on the field data sheet. Information to be recorded includes all calculations,
adjustments made to meter, and accuracy prior to calibration.

5.1.4 CALIBRATION OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN METER
Follow this procedure for the air calibration method for a meter with a membrane probe. Be aware that the
calibration can be disturbed by physical shock, touching the membrane, or drying out the probe. If the dissolved
oxygen meter does not have a membrane probe (or is not an Orion Research O2 on a pH meter), calibrate the
dissolved oxygen meter in accordance with the instruction manual.
1. Adjust the "ZERO" reading while in the "OFF" position.
2. Switch to "RED LINE" and adjust the reading to align with the red line.
3. Switch to "ZERO" and adjust to zero with the zero-control knob.
4. Plug in probe and tighten retainer.
5. Insert probe into the calibration chamber making certain the chamber is slightly moist and the rubber plug
is watertight. Place the calibration chamber (with probe in place) into the water being sampled and wait
10-15 minutes for the temperature to stabilize.
6. Switch to "TEMPERATURE" and read.
7. Determine the solubility of oxygen at that temperature from the calibration table included with the
instrument.
8. Determine the altitude correction factor and multiply this factor by the solubility figure. This is the
corrected saturation value (mg/L).
9. Switch to the appropriate scale and adjust the calibration knob to the corrected saturation value.
10. Wait two minutes to verify the stability of the reading and readjust if necessary.
11. Document calibration details in the Field Logbook or on the appropriate Field Data Sheet. Documentation
will include time of calibration, water temperature, and all calculations. The condition of the probe will be
checked prior to each measurement.

5.2 PROCEDURE GF-02: PH MEASUREMENT
1. If the measurement cannot be made within the water body, collect a sample in a clean beaker. Record
the time the sample is collected.
2. Measure the temperature with a clean thermometer and adjust the temperature knob accordingly (for
meters which do not compensate for temperature).
3. Rinse the probe with distilled water prior to immersing into the sample.
4. Allow the meter to stabilize (change less than 0.05 units in a one-minute period with no systemic drift).
Read and record the pH value on the Field Data Sheet. Record the time the measurement is taken.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 if the results are questionable.
6. Verify the accuracy of the measurement, if necessary, by re-testing a buffer solution. This step need not
be performed after each measurement if no drift is detected in the meter after an initial test.
7. Rinse the probe.
8. If a digital pH meter is used, add DI water if the electrolyte is not sufficient to cover the electrode.
9. Store the meter according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

5.3 PROCEDURE GF-03: EH MEASUREMENT
The ability of a natural environment to bring about an oxidation or reduction process is measured by a quantity
called its redox potential and is designated as Eh. Eh is a measure of the ability of an environment to supply
electrons to an oxidizing agent or to take up electrons from a reducing agent.
1. Check the accuracy of the Eh probe:
a. Prepare equipment according to manufacturer's specifications.
b. Check the accuracy of electrode system with a reference solution of known Eh (ZoBell solution).
Record the following information in the Field Logbook.
c. Bring the reference ZoBell solution to sample temperature and record the temperature.
d. Measure potential, in millivolts, of the ZoBell solution at sample temperature (Eh ZoBell(obs)) and
check against theoretical value at measured temperature. This value should be + 10 millivolts (EH
ZoBell + Ref).
e. Place electrode in Eh cell or water sample container and allow readings to stabilize (after several
minutes).
f. If using a cell, turn off water flow to prevent streaming potential and immediately take reading.
g. Record data (Eh) and calculate Eh relative to standard hydrogen electrode.
h. Calculate system Eh as follows: Ehsys = EH obs + Eh ZoBell+Ref - Eh ZoBell(obs).
i. Record Eh to the nearest + 10 millivolts. (Oil and grease in the sample solution may coat the noble-
metal electrode and provide erroneous readings. Note any oil in the Field Logbook.)
2. Take Eh measurements in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications in water sample or cell.
3. Record the measurements on the appropriate Field Data Sheet.
4. Recalibrate and check meter accuracy in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

5.5 PROCEDURE GF-05: MEASUREMENT OF CARBONATE
AND BICARBONATE
This procedure describes the measurements of carbonate and bicarbonate to be conducted at the Environmental
Field Laboratory (the Ranch), and laboratory calculations to be conducted at the RTK Environmental Laboratory
to determine carbonate and bicarbonate concentrations in water samples.
When alkalinity is due to carbonate or bicarbonate content, the pH at the equivalence point of the titration is
determined by the concentration of CO2 at that stage, which, in turn, depends on the total carbonate species
originally present and any losses that may have occurred during titration. The following pH values are suggested
as expressed equivalents points for the corresponding alkalinity concentrations in milligrams of CaCO3 per liter:
• Phenolphthalein (pH 8.3)
• Bromocresol green (pH 3.8)
Equipment
• Brinkmann 25 ml Digital Buret
• 250 ml glass beaker
• Water Quality Field Data Sheet
Reagent Needed
• 0.1 normal hydrochloric acid (HCl) or sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
Carbonate
1. Place 100 mL of sample into a borosilicate beaker.
2. If the pH is equal to or greater than 8.3 add phenolphthalein to the sample to obtain a pink color in the
sample. If no color is obtained, carbonate is not present. Proceed to the bicarbonate procedure.
3. Slowly titrate using 0.1 normal acid and a Brinkmann 25 ml Digital buret. Add the acid to the sample until
the sample becomes clear again.
4. Record molarity and the number of milliliters of acid used to achieve the color change on the Water
Quality Field Data Sheet.
Bicarbonate
1. Add bromocresol green to the same 100 ml of sample until it is dark green.
2. Slowly titrate using 0.1 normal acid and the Brinkman 25 ml Digital burette until the color changes to a
lime green.
3. Record acid type, molarity, and the number of milliliters of acid added to the sample on the Water Quality
Field Data Sheet.
Calculation
The number of milliliters used in both titrations are taken from this sheet in order to calculate milliequivalents of
carbonate (CO3=) and bicarbonate (HCO3-) using the following equations1:

5.6 PROCEDURE GF-06: DISSOLVED OXYGEN
MEASUREMENT
1. If a dissolved oxygen meter with membrane probe is not used, use CHEMets ampoules to measure
dissolved oxygen.
2. If an ampoule flow-through cell is available, position ampoule in cell2. Divert water flow through the cell.
When the cell is filled with water, break the ampoule at the neck. Stop the flow of water and remove the
ampoule. Compare the color with the standard ampoules and record the dissolved oxygen concentration
by extrapolating between the colors of the standard ampoules to + 0.5 ppm.
3. If a flow-through cell is not available, collect a sample of water in a clean sample cup. Follow the
directions provided with the CHEMets ampoules for measuring dissolved oxygen. After waiting the
recommended time, but no longer than five minutes, compare the color of the ampoule with the standard
ampoules and record oxygen concentration by extrapolating between the colors of the standard ampoules
to + 0.5 ppm.
4. Record the value for dissolved oxygen and the test method on the Field Data Sheet. Record the time the
sample is collected and the time the measurement is taken.
5. If no color is shown, record the lowest value on the standard ampoule as the detection limit. Do not record
zero.

2. Extrapolate the concentration of dissolved ferrous iron and record to + 0.05 ppm.
3. If the ampoule color is darker than the range of standard ampoules, dilute a fresh sample of well water
one-to-one with de-ionized/distilled water and measure ferrous iron immediately. The tested sample must
be one-half well water and one half de-ionized/distilled water. The result should be recorded as twice the
value of the selected standard.
4. Record the value of ferrous iron, the method used to include any dilutions done, and the final ferrous iron
value on the Field Data Sheet. Record the time the sample is collected and the time the measurement is
taken.

5.8 PROCEDURE GF-08: SULFIDE MEASUREMENT
The following procedures describe the methods used to complete field analyses for sulfide. This procedure is
completed in two steps. The first step is the identification of sulfide concentration greater than the detection limit,
and the second is the quantification of the concentration of sulfide present, if measurable concentrations are
detected.
Step 1 - Presence of detectable concentrations of sulfide.
1. Fill a clear glass container with the water to be analyzed. The container should be filled in a manner that
minimizes the disturbance of the sample and does not result in aeration of the sample.
2. Insert a lead acetate strip and check the sample for the presence of a black precipitate on the lead
acetate strip.
3. If a black precipitate is present, proceed with Step 2, otherwise record the concentration as less than
0.01.
Step 2 - Use CHEMets ampoules to measure sulfide concentrations as described below. This method uses the K-
9503 Vacu-vials using the "methylene blue" colorometric test method. Using the equipment provided in
the CHEMets test set complete the analyses as follows:
1. Fill the sample cup to the 25 ml mark with your sample.
2. Add 3 drops of A-9500 Activator Solution. Stir quickly with the top of the Vacu-vial ampoule.
Caution:
A-9500 Activator Solution to ferric chloride in concentrated hydrochloric acid. Avoid contact. Remove from
the glass bottle only when in use. In case of contact, flush skin, or eyes with water. Seek prompt medical
attention if swallowed. READ MSDS BEFORE USING.
3. Immediately snap the tip of the Vacu-vial ampoule by placing the tapered tip down in the bottom of the
sample cup and pressing the ampoule against the side. The sample will fill the ampoule and begin to mix
with the reagent.
NOTE: A small bubble of inert gas will remain in the ampoule to facilitate mixing.
4. Remove the Vacu-vial ampoule from the cup. Mix the contents of the ampoule by inverting it several
times, allowing the bubble to travel from end to end each time, until the solution is uniform in color.
5. Wipe all liquid from the exterior of the ampoule and wait 5 minutes.
6. After 5 minutes, read the transmittance of the Vacu-vial ampoule in your spectrophotometer or filter
photometer. Use the correct calibration table to obtain analytical results as mg/l sulfide.
For additional information on the test described above, review the instructions provided in the CHEMetric test kit,
contact CHEMeterics, Inc. (Phone [phone]) or look up the method in APHA Standard Methods, 17, ed.,

5.9 PROCEDURE GF-09: TURBIDITY MEASUREMENT
1. Collect a representative, mixed sample of the water to be tested in a clean sample tube. Record the time
the sample is collected. Allow sufficient time for bubbles to escape.
2. Carefully wipe the sample tube with a soft cloth to remove water spots and fingerprints. Discard sample
tubes if scratched or etched.
3. Place the sample tube into the light cell with the proper orientation. Cover the tube with the light shield.
4. With the scale setting on the highest range (0-100 NTUs), read the meter, and adjust the range setting as
needed. Once the reading has stabilized, record the reading on the Field Data Sheet. Record the time the
reading is taken.
5. If the reading exceeds 100 NTUs, dilute the sample with distilled water as needed. A 50:50 dilution
reflects a reading which is one half the true value.
6. Thoroughly rinse and wipe the sample tube clean after use.

5.10 PROCEDURE GF-10: MEASUREMENT OF LIGHT NON-
AQUEOUS PHASE LIQUID (LNAPL)
This procedure applies to detection and measurement of non-aqueous phase liquids, such as petroleum products,
which are less dense than water. Use this procedure at monitoring wells suspected of, but not known to contain
such contamination.
1. Immediately after removing the well cap and prior to well evacuation, sample the air in the well head for
organic vapors using either a photo ionization analyzer or an organic vapor analyzer. Document the time
and reading (including units) of the measurement on the Field Data Sheet. This step may be skipped if
the well is known to contain hydrocarbons.
2. Lower the interface probe to determine the presence of an immiscible organic layer above the
groundwater.
3. Follow the instructions provided with the meter to determine the depth to the top of the liquid layer and the
interface between the liquid and the groundwater. Document the time and reading (including units) of the
measurements on the Field Data Sheet.
4. Decontaminate the meter prior to and after each use.

5.11 PROCEDURE GF-11: MEASUREMENT OF DEPTH TO
WATER AND DEPTH TO BOTTOM
The depth to water and depth to bottom of a monitoring well casing are required in order to calculate purge
volumes for evacuation prior to sampling, development of new wells, and in preparation for well abandonment.
See Procedure GW-09 for site-wide water-level measurements to determine the potentiometric surface. If water
levels are taken independent of a sampling event use the field data sheet shown in Figure GF-1.
Depth to Water
Measure the depth to water prior to well evacuation and at other times, as needed, as follows:
1. Lower the meter probe into the casing and measure to the nearest one-hundredth of a foot below the
measuring point elevation (top of PVC casing marked with an indelible ink marker or another method to
standardize its location If casing is not marked, use the North side of the PVC). In flowing wells, either
use a transducer or standpipe to measure head above top of well. (See Procedure GF-12 and GF-13.)
2. If an oily substance is observed on the meter probe, follow Procedure GF-10 to detect the presence of the
floating liquid. Record observations and readings on the Field Data Sheet and arrange to sample for
organic constituents as directed by the Project Manager or Project Work Plan.
3. Decontaminate the meter prior to each use with three rinses of de-ionized water.
Measure depth to the bottom of the casing in RTK wells without dedicated pumps at least once per year; every
two years in wells with small, removable pumps; and, for larger pumps when serviced, as follows:
1. Remove dedicated pump if it will obstruct the measurement.
2. Insert the decontaminated, weighted depth-to-water meter or steel tape into the casing until the bottom is
reached.
3. Measure to the nearest one-tenth of a foot below the measuring point evaluation (top of the protective
casing previously marked with an indelible ink marker or another method to standardize its location).
4. Record the depth on the Groundwater Quality Field Data Sheet.
5. Decontaminate the outside of the pump. Inspect the pump for a potential maintenance problem and
repair, if required, prior to re-installation according to Procedure MD-02. Record inspection and repairs in
the Field Logbook.

5.12 PROCEDURE GF-12: MEASUREMENT OF
HHYDRAULIC HEAD USING IN-SITU TRANSDUCER
The following operation and calibration procedures apply to the In-Situ Transducer Model No. PTX-161D and the
In-Situ Level head Digital Readout Meter Model No. LH10HE. For additional information, refer to the Level head
operator's manual.
Use the following operation procedure to measure feet of head in a flowing well:
1. Slip a 1.5-inch or 2-inch flowing well valve adapter, rubber washer, and coupling over the transducer
probe. Place the adapter on the probe and position such that the holes in the black tip are just exposed
beneath the inside lip of the adapter. (This will align the tip of the probe with the top of the flowing well
valve, which is the measuring point of the well.) Tighten the coupling.
NOTE: Flowing well valves on the older wells (with round, yellow protective casing) accept the 2-inch
adapter. Flowing well valves on the newer wells (500 series with square, silver, galvanized protective
casing) accept the 1.5-inch adapter.
2. Screw the adapter into the flowing well valve. Attach one end of the connector cable to the Level head
meter and the other end of the cable to the faceplate of the transducer reel.
3. Turn on the meter to the proper pressure range indicated on the transducer (10 psi for Model No. PTX-
161D). Turn the Zero Adjust Knob until the digital readout equals zero.
NOTE: The pressure-sensing diaphragm in the probe is extremely sensitive. Therefore, it is difficult to set
the meter on a stabilized zero reading. However, it is possible to set the meter within 0.005 to 0.010 inch.
4. Open the well valve. Check for leaks in the connections. (Significant leaks will cause lower than actual
head measurements due to pressure losses.)
5. While allowing the head to stabilize, note variations in the readout of the meter.
6. Head will be a positive readout on the meter, representing the potentiometric surface or the actual
distance in feet above the measuring point of the well that the water would rise in a manometer tube.
Record the positive value when the reading has stabilized.
NOTE: The 10-psi transducer will not accurately respond to heads greater than +19.6 feet.
7. Close the valve and remove the instruments from the well.
Use one of the following field or in-house calibration methods to check the accuracy of the transducer and meter
prior, or after, each use:
Well Method
1. Zero the meter in air.
2. Lower the probe into a well to a predetermined depth (5, 10, or 15 feet) below the water level.
3. Determine if the instrument is reading the correct depth. This method works best in wells where the water
level is visible inside the casing and very close to the measuring point of the well.
NOTE: Because depths are not marked on the transducer cable, accurate calibrations in wells with deeper water levels can be
performed by taping the wireline of a water level meter to the transducer cable. The correct depth of the water level and the
pre-determined calibration depth can then be read off the wireline.
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 53 of 147
4. If the meter requires calibration adjustments, refer to the Level head operator's manual.
Manometer Check
1. Perform head measurements with the transducer and meter using the Operation Procedure described
above. Record the stabilized head measurement.
2. Remove the instruments from the well. Install a manometer capable of measuring within the range of the
recorded head measurement.
3. Open the valve and allow the water level in the manometer to stabilize.
4. Determine if the instrument readout was the same head measurement as seen in the manometer.
5. If the meter requires calibration adjustments, refer to the Levelhead operator's manual. In-House
6. In the absence of a well or a manometer, a shallow-depth calibration can be performed. Fill a sink or an
ice chest with water.
7. Lower the probe to a pre-determined depth. Lower a steel measuring tape to the same depth.
NOTE: The zero point on the transducer probe is the top of the probe (not the holes where the diaphragm
is located).
8. Determine if the instrument is reading the same depth below water level as on the measuring tape.
9. If the meter requires calibration adjustments, refer to the Level head operator's manual.

5.13 PROCEDURE GF-13: MEASUREMENT OF HYDRAULIC
HEAD IN FLOWING WELLS
This procedure describes the use of manometers and standpipes for the measurement of head in flowing (artisan)
wells. The use of a pressure transducer is preferred since it does not require the discharge of water.
The standpipe used in the measurement of these heads is a clear plastic pipe that is screwed into the value on
top of the well. After the standpipe is installed, the height to which the water rises in the standpipe is measured
with a steel tape, read accurate to 0.01 feet. A minimum of at least 2 measurements must be taken at least 5
minutes apart. If the measured water level changes by more than 0.01 feet, additional measurements must be
taken until the measurements stabilize. For slowly recharged wells, this may take hours.
The manometer is a small clear plastic hose that is attached to the valve at the top of the well. The plastic tube is
elevated, and the water allowed to rise in the tubing. The height of the water in the tubing measured vertically
above the well is measured using a steel tape read accurate to 0.01 feet. A minimum of at least 2 measurements
must be taken at least 5 minutes apart. If the measured water level changes by more than 0.01 feet, additional
measurements must be taken until the measurements stabilize.
The resulting measurements will be recorded in the field notes. Any significant leakage of water from the well prior
to, during, or after the measurements will also be recorded in the field records.
No leakage should be allowed, and if it is not corrected should be reported to the field supervisor.

Temperature Measurement
1. For flowing runoff water, select a location where the water is moving (at the section of greatest velocity)
and well mixed.
2. Stand in a position such that a shadow is cast upon the area chosen for the temperature determination.
3. Hold the thermometer by the top and immerse it in the water in the shadowed area. Allow at least 60
seconds for the thermometer to stabilize.

temperature. Use a container large enough to allow full immersion of the thermometer. Bring the
container to the same temperature as the stream prior to filling with water.
5. Without removing the thermometer from the water, position the thermometer such that the scale can be
read. Read the temperature to the nearest 0.5oC and record on the Field Data Sheet.

6.1 PROCEDURE GW-01: PIEZOMETER AND WELL
IDENTIFICATION
All RTK ground water sampling locations are identified utilizing a three- or four-letter identification acronym
followed by a unique number ranging between 0001 and 0999, and a final letter code. No dashes and/or spaces
are used in the well name. Special identification numbers for QC samples are described in Procedures QC-01
through QC-05.
Well names for new wells will be assigned and approved by the Sampling Supervisor. The information listed at
the end of Procedure GW-11 must accompany requests for new names.
The procedure for naming new sampling locations is provided in Procedure DC-02. The following sections
describe, in general, conventions used in identifying well locations prior to the present system.
Site Identification Acronym
The identification acronym consists of a two-letter code identifying the general location of the sample and a third
letter identifying a facility and/or type of well. For example, the acronym "NES" identifies a north end well (NE)
located at the Smelter (S).
General location acronyms used to date include:
VW - Valley Well, a well located on the east valley side of the Oquirrh Mountains.
NE - North End, a well located along the north end of the Oquirrh Mountains.
TV - Tooele Valley, a well located along the west end of the Oquirrh Mountains.
TLL - Tailings Lysimeter

Well type and/or facility acronyms used to date include:
A - A well located in the general vicinity of the old Arthur Concentrator.
D - Diving Board Area.
K - A monitoring or production well owned by RTK.
L - RTK well located in the landfill area near Magna.
M - A well located in the general vicinity of the Magna Concentrator or the City of Magna.
P - A large-diameter piezometer.
R - A well located in the general vicinity of the Refinery.
S - A well located in the general vicinity of the Smelter.
T - A well located in the general vicinity of the tailings impoundment.
W - A well located in the general vicinity of the Wastewater Treatment Plant or a privately-owned monitoring
or production well. The use of this acronym to identify privately-owned wells is restricted to use in
conjunction with the identification acronym "VW".

Sample Location Number
A sequence number or character is associated with each sampling point. That number is unique to the sampling
point and will not be used in other well names. Many of the sequence numbers are also reserved for surface
water sampling locations.
Final Character
An optional final character may be attached to the well name to indicate well depth. This final character will be
assigned to wells installed in a well nest which are drilled to evaluate aquifer changes as a function of depth. The
shallowest well will be assigned the letter "A". Successively deeper wells will be assigned sequentially higher
alphabetic letters. For example, well VWP272C is the third deepest well at well site VWP272.

6.2 PROCEDURE GW-02: WELL INSPECTION
This procedure describes a general well inspection to be conducted each time a well is sampled and a
comprehensive well inspection to be completed once for each well and after any major modification or problem
with the well.
General Well Inspection
Each time the well is sampled a general well inspection is to be completed. As a minimum, the following items
should be checked to determine if a problem exists:
• General condition of the well and well pad.
• Recent damage to the well.
• Well locked on arrival.
• Water flowing from the well.
• Broken or missing well caps; and
• Broken valves on flowing wells.
If this inspection indicates a problem, the problem should be noted and recorded in the Field Logbook. Any
serious problems should be reported directly to the Sampling Supervisor.
Comprehensive
The comprehensive well inspection is to be completed at least once for each well. This inspection should be done
immediately on all wells for which it has not previously been done and after any major modifications or problems
with the well. Inspect the well for all items listed on the Well Inspection Report (see Figure GW-1). Unless
previously done, prepare a well location map and photographs to document the well location and elevation marker
point.
Map and Photograph
1. Draw a sketch on the Well Inspection Report, including field-measured distances to permanent or semi-
permanent landmarks (natural features and/or man-made structures) and a north arrow.
2. Attach a copy of an existing map, if possible, with notations on distances from map features.
3. Once a map has been sketched for a given well, do not redraw unless landmarks have changed,
disappeared, or new landmarks have appeared in the area which would be beneficial in locating the wells.
4. Shoot at least two photographs at each well site for all wells included in the monitoring network. Shoot
one photograph with the well in the foreground, and landmarks (shown on the well location map) in the
background. Shoot another photograph with the location of the marker point (used to measure depth to
water and depth to bottom in the well) clearly visible.
5. Attach photographs to the Well Inspection Report which will be filed in the Water Quality Data Filing
System. For domestic and production wells, also provide the Well Inspection Report to the Project
Manager or Field Team Leader to attach to these procedures for use in the field.
Well Inspection
1. Inspect the locking cap on the protective external casing. Check that the locking hasp is not broken and
that the shackle of the lock will not fall out of the hasp. Check the lock for smooth operation. Lubricate if
necessary.

Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 62 of 147
2. Examine the external casing if present. Note its outside diameter and construction material. Check the
condition of the paint. Make sure the Well I.D. # is marked on the external casing. Note if the external
casing is badly corroded or weathered.
3. Examine the well pad if present. Note its construction material, thickness, and Well I.D.# markings.
4. Inspect the inner casing. Note its outside and inside diameters. Note construction material and type of
adapter if present. If no adapter, inspect condition of top of casing for smoothness. Check to see if marker
point is present and if it is labeled. Inspect the annular seal for fill height and condition of material.
5. Measure the depth to the bottom of the casing in accordance with Procedure GF-11.
6. Note whether a pump is present. Indicate type of pump if present.
7. If the well is a flowing well, inspect the condition of the shut off valve. Indicate if a head measurement is
possible.
8. Note any other pertinent items about the condition of the well, special sampling considerations, or its
surroundings not included in the above information.

6.3 PROCEDURE GW-03: WELL EVACUATION
Determine purge volume using this procedure prior to removing water and measuring field parameters (See
Procedure GW-04). Purge volume is calculated as the standing well and sand pack porosity. If an immiscible
phase is detected for the first time, collect an immiscible phase sample (Procedure GW-9) prior to any purging
activities (see Procedure GF-10).
Purging Well
For monitoring wells of known construction, evacuate a minimum of three (3) standing well casings and sand pack
porosity volumes to help ensure the collection of a sample which is representative of the surrounding aquifer. The
removal of at least three volumes is believed to result in a sample which is not influenced by stagnant water
remaining in the well casing. Limiting the evacuation to five volumes, given that the indicator parameters have
stabilized, prevents the pumping of diluted or more concentrated ground water from another area within the
aquifer. If the well goes dry during evacuation, allow the water level to recover and re-evacuate, if possible, until
at least one and one-half (1.5) volumes are purged. When organic constituents will be analyzed, do not pump or
bail the well to dryness if the recharge rate causes formation water to cascade vigorously down the sides of the
screen. The pumping rate during the sampling of the well will, to the extent possible, be lowered to provide the
lowest possible turbidity achievable at the time of sampling.
Determine Purge Water Volume
The volume of porosity is calculated as follows:
1. Measure the inside diameter of the well casing if not known.
2. Determine the depth to water as described in Procedure GF-11. Enter the measured value at "Measured
Initial Depth to Water" on the Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet. If the well is flowing or the depth
cannot be measured, enter the value at "Assumed Initial Depth to Water" on the Sheet. Assume the depth
to water for flowing wells is 0.0 ft. Use the previous measurement for the well if conditions do not permit
measurement. Decontaminate the water level indicator prior to use in each well as described in
Procedure MD-02.
3. Determine the total depth to the bottom of the well from the measuring point at least once per year (see
Procedure GF-11). Enter the measured value at "Measured Depth to Bottom of Casing" on the Ground
Water Quality Field Data Sheet. If the depth is not measured, enter the previous measurement at
"Assumed Depth to Bottom of Casing" on the Sheet.
4. Calculate the number of linear feet of standing water by subtracting the depth to water (WL) from the
depth to bottom (WD). Record this value on the Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
V = 1.872r[(WD-WL)(D2C)+ 0.3(L)(D2-D2)]
5. Calculate the standing water volume in gallons as follows:
Where:
V = Volume of standing water (gallons)
L = Length of screened interval (ft)
0.3 = Assumed porosity of sand pack
WD = Depth to bottom of screen (ft)
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 64 of 147
WL = Depth to water (ft)
DB = Diameter of borehole (ft)
DC = Diameter of casing (ft)
V = [1.872r(WD-WL)(D2C)]+ VSP
If the sand pack volume, Vsp, is known, calculate the standing water volume as follows:
6. Multiply the standing water volume by three (3) to obtain the minimum purge volume.
The volume of water to be purged from the well may be calculated as indicated above. Record the value for water
purged on the Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
Standardize the purging method, flow rate, and purge volume per foot of standing water in well casing for each
well, when possible, to ensure that the monitoring results will be comparable from one sampling event to the next.
Pump Operation
In high-yielding, non-flowing wells without dedicated pumps, place the pump near the top of the water column
rather than in the screened area. This will ensure evacuation of the standing water above the screen. If well yield
is low to moderate, place the pumps at the bottom of the screened interval. For flowing wells, install a spigot to
allow measurement of flow rate or volume during purging.
The following procedures describe pump operation:
Dedicated Grundfos (Submersible) Pumps
1. Remove the electric cord and discharge tubing coiled within the well casing.
2. Connect the electric cord from the submersible pump to the power supply. Turn the pump on. When
pumping commences, note the time and flow rate on the Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
Calculate the time to run the pump using this flow rate and the calculated purge water volume. Measure
parameters as per Procedure GW-04.
3. After purging and sampling, turn off the pump. Recoil the electric cord and discharge tubing and place
them inside the protective casing. Replace the locking cap and lock the well.
Non-dedicated Grundfos Pumps
1. Rinse the exterior of the pump and tubing with deionized water prior to lowering down the casing. Do not
allow rinse water to enter the well casing. Lower the pump and tubing into the well to the desired depth.
2. Follow steps No. 1 and No. 2 for dedicated Grundfos pumps above.
3. After purging and sampling, remove the pump from the well. Rinse with de-ionized water any portion of
the tubing that has come in contact with well water.
4. Decontaminate the pump following Procedure MD-02. Shut off the compressor and generator. Replace
the locking cap and lock the well.

Bennett Pump
1. Start the generator and allow it to warm up until the generator is idling at a constant RPM. Plug the air
compressor and reel motor into the receptacle outlets. Connect the compressor to the pump and allow
the air pressure to build until there is sufficient pressure to activate the pumping action of the Bennett
pump.
2. Rinse the exterior of the pump and tubing with deionized water prior to lowering down the casing. Do not
allow rinse water to enter the well casing. Lower the pump and tubing into the well to the desired depth.
3. Monitor the discharge of the pump. When pumping commences, note the time and flow rate on the
Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet. Calculate the time to run the pump using this flow rate and the
calculated purge water volume. Measure parameters as per Procedure GW-04.
4. After purging and sampling, remove the pump from the well. Rinse with de-ionized water any portion of
the tubing that has come in contact with well water.
5. Decontaminate the pump following Procedure MD-02. Shut off the compressor and generator. Replace
the locking cap and lock the well.
Peristaltic Pump
1. If a dedicated discharge hose is not present, rinse the new tubing with de-ionized water. Lower the tubing
into the well to the desired depth. Do not allow rinse water to enter the well casing.
2. Connect the tubing to the intake side of the peristaltic pump. Connect the peristaltic pump control box to a
power source (12-volt battery or 115-volt generator).
3. Turn the control box on. When pumping commences, note the time and flow rate on the Ground Water
Quality Field Data Sheet. Calculate the time to run the pump using this flow rate and the calculated purge
water volume. Measure parameters as per Procedure GW-04.
4. After purging and sampling, remove the tubing from the well unless the tubing is dedicated to the well.
Purge and spray the tubing with de-ionized water. Store the tubing in a clean plastic bag.
5. Decontaminate the pump following Procedure MD-02. Replace the locking cap and lock the well.

6.4 PROCEDURE GW-04: FIELD MEASUREMENTS
Measure temperature, pH, and specific conductivity during the pumping for well evacuation. Measure dissolved
oxygen, and ferrous iron at the end of pumping, when required.
1. Collect samples in new, laboratory-cleaned or decontaminated containers for measurement with meters.
2. Take readings of temperature, pH, Eh (if required), and specific conductivity immediately upon the start of
pumping, and periodically thereafter (e.g., every one-half to one well volume). As the total pumped
volume approaches three well volumes, record the readings more frequently. When the pH has stabilized
to within 0.05 pH units and other parameters have stabilized to within + 10% for four sequential readings,
the well evacuation is complete. Record readings on the laptop Ground Water Quality Field Data Sheet,
including comments regarding unsuccessful stabilization of parameters after the removal of five well
volumes.
3. Record a physical description of the sample, noting turbidity and general appearance.
4. If required, measure Eh, dissolved oxygen, ferrous iron, and sulfide just before pumping is ceased.
5. If a dissolved oxygen meter with membrane probe is not used, use CHEMets ampoules to measure
dissolved oxygen (see Procedure GF-06).
6. Use CHEMets ampoules to measure ferrous iron Procedure GF-07.

6.6 PROCEDURE GW-06: BAILING
Bailers will be constructed of Teflon or stainless steel. A wire or single untwisted synthetic filament (such as
nylon) line will be used*. The following procedure will be followed for bailer use:
1. Lower the bailer into the well, retrieve and empty it once to ensure that the bailer has been rinsed of any
decontamination fluids.
2. When collecting the ground water needed for filling the sample bottles, gently lower the bailer sufficiently
into the water column to collect a sample unaffected by equilibration with the atmosphere (approximately
ten feet, if possible), jerk the bailer gently to ensure that the ball valve is closed, and retrieve the bailer at
a steady rate to the surface.
3. When transferring the water from the bailer to the sample containers, take care to avoid agitation to the
sample which will promote the loss of volatile constituents and promote chemical oxidation.
4. Do not allow the bailer line or wire to touch the ground or come into contact with any other equipment.
Roll up the line or wire on a spool or feed it into a bucket lined with clean plastic.
*For inorganic samples, the use of a braided or twisted cord is allowed if the used cord is disposed of
after each use, and if leachate tests of the cord show no potential to affect the quality of the sample.
6. Decontaminate all equipment and materials coming into contact with the inside casing of the wells or the
ground water (Procedure MD-02). Handle rinseate water as described in Procedure GF-16.
7. When sampling for organic constituents only bottom spigot bailers will be used.

6.7 PROCEDURE GW-07: HYDRASLEEVE SAMPLING
Collecting samples from monitoring, domestic, or production wells via HydraSleeve (HS) is described below.
Follow the general procedures for documentation, sample handling, and quality control (DC, MD, and QC series
procedures).
HydraSleeve Deployment
1. Acquire specific well data such as total depth and screen interval.
2. Decontaminate a calibrated water level meter.
3. Measure the depth to water (DTW) of well in a manner that minimizes disturbance to the water column.
4. Document DTW and screen interval.
5. The HS will be placed so that the top of the sleeve is the length of the HS below the midpoint of the
screen interval.
6. With clean nitrile gloves, measure out the necessary tether length. Account for the length of tether that
will be securing the HS above the well head.
7. With clean nitrile gloves, open the HS from its packaging and acquire new or decontaminated clips and
weight.
8. Attach the weight clip to the bottom of the HS.
9. Attach the weight to the bottom clip.
10. Attach the tether top clip to the top of the HS through the inside of the HS tether clip holes by bending out
the reinforcing HS top strips.
11. Secure the premeasured tether to the top clip.
12. Slowly lower the HS down the well in a manner that minimizes disturbance to the water column while
ensuring it does not get stuck and tension is felt once completely lowered, indicating it has reached the
desired depth.
13. Anchor the tether either through the cap on the well or a secure location near the well head.
14. The HS should be deployed for at least 5 minutes before retrieval for the sleeve to reach equilibrium with
groundwater.
HydraSleeve Retrieval
1. Prepare the tether for retrieval.
2. In one smooth motion, pull the tether up the distance of the HS at a rate of about one foot per second or
faster. The motion will open the top check valve and allow the HS to fill.
3. Continue to retrieve the HS to the surface.
4. Once the HS has been taken out of the well, squeeze the top near the reinforced strips to remove excess
water that is captured above the closed check valve. This water is not part of the sample.
5. Suspend the full HS in a manner that allows for the transfer of sample water to appropriate sample
containers.

6. Use the provided straw to puncture the bottom of the HS and collect the sample. Be careful not to pierce
both sides of the sleeve.
7. Collect and document required field parameters.
8. Decontaminate the clips and weight for future use.
9. Replace the locking cap and lock the well.
10. Complete final documentation of the sampling event.

Refer to step by step photo log.

6.8 PROCEDURE GW-08: SAMPLE COLLECTION –
GENERAL IONS AND METALS
General Protocol
Collect samples from monitoring wells, domestic wells, or production wells as described below, also following the
general procedures for documentation, sample handling, and quality control (DC, MD, and QC series
procedures).
Complete well documentation and inspection as required by Procedure GW-02.
Sample Collection from Monitoring Wells
1. Measure the water level in accordance with Procedure GF-11.
2. If an immiscible organic layer is detected above the ground water for the first time, samples will be
analyzed for organic constituents using Procedure GW-09 for sampling.
3. Evacuate the well in accordance with Procedure GW-03.
4. Collect samples in prepared containers with the proper preservatives. If required, measure carbonate and
bicarbonate in the Environmental Field Sampling Room (Bucking Room) according to Procedure GF-05.
5. Attach the in-line filtering device with a 0.45-micron filter to collect samples which require filtering. Install a
peristaltic pump in flowing wells as necessary to provide the pressure for in-line filtering. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions for filter use. If field filtering is impossible, fill extra containers (labeled with the
Well ID # in indelible ink) for transport to the Field Office for filtering and filling of containers on the same
day as sample collection. Note this variance in the field form, Procedure GW-05.
6. If any preservative is lost prior to or during the filling of a sample container (i.e., spilling or overflow), use
another prepared container.
7. Thoroughly decontaminate all equipment and instruments used to sample and check the depth to water
(Procedure MD-02).
Sample Collection from Domestic Wells
Purge domestic wells in accordance with Procedure GW-03 unless photographs and specific instructions for the
well are available. Generally, use the same equipment used for monitoring wells with the exception of pumps and
bailers. Use the following procedure in the sampling of domestic wells:
1. Contact the owners or operators of the wells to determine what tools, valves, hoses, etc., will be needed.
Wrenches may be needed for opening and closing faucets or spigots.
2. Obtain information about the size of the fittings required and accessibility of the sampling spigot. It may
be convenient to attach a section of inert plastic (such as Teflon) tubing to the spigot, especially under
very cramped quarters.
3. Collect residential samples from a sampling port or spigot which is positioned as close to the well head as
possible, and prior to any type of treatment system, such as a water softener, chlorination or granular
activated carbon unit. Residential wells generally have a spigot located at the base of the pressure tank.
This is usually the closest tap to the actual well head.
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 73 of 147
4. When collecting raw samples from the tap off the pressure tank, turn on the cold-water faucet and run a
minimum of five minutes and/or until temperature stabilization (two readings within + 10%).
Measurements of pH and/or conductivity also can be used to indicate that fresh water is entering the
pressure tank.
5. After stabilization has been achieved, continue to run the cold-water faucet, and collect samples from the
tap off the pressure tank. This will ensure collection of a representative sample.
6. For most residential wells, collect the samples directly into the sample bottles. Use in-line filters where
possible for the appropriate inorganic samples. Use a peristaltic pump to provide the pressure for in-line
filtering. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for filter use. If field filtering is impossible, fill extra
containers (labeled with the Well ID # in indelible ink) for transport to the Field Office for filtering and filling
of containers on the same day as sample collection. Note this variance in the field data sheet.
Sample Collection from Production Wells
Generally, use the same equipment used for monitoring wells with the exception of the pumps and the bailer.
Since production wells are high volume water producers, there is no necessity for evacuating the well when the
well is in operation. Use the following procedure in the sampling of production wells:
1. Contact the operators of the wells to determine what tools, valves, hoses, etc., will be needed. Wrenches
may be needed for opening and closing faucets or spigots. Often spigots on production wells may be too
large, resulting in a high-volume flow which will make sampling difficult. In this case, it will be necessary to
reduce the flow by using appropriate fittings.
2. Sample production wells during a pumping cycle to ensure that stagnant water is not sampled.
3. Clear the lines between the well and the spigot.
4. Collect samples from a sampling port or spigot which is positioned as close to the well head as possible,
and prior to any type of treatment system, such as a water softener, chlorination, or granular activated
carbon unit.
5. For most production wells, collect directly into the sample bottles. Use in-line filters where possible for the
appropriate inorganic samples. Use a peristaltic pump to provide the pressure for in-line filtering. Follow
the manufacturer's instructions for filter use. If field filtering is impossible, fill extra containers (labeled with
the Well ID # in indelible ink) for transport to the Field Office for filtering and filling of containers on the
same day as sample collection. Note this variance on the Field Data Sheet.

6.9 PROCEDURE GW-09: SAMPLE COLLECTION –
ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
1. Measure the water level in accordance with procedure GF-11.
2. If an immiscible organic layer is detected above the ground water for the first time:
a) Measure the thickness of the immiscible layer according to Procedure GF-10 if not already done.
b) If a sample of the immiscible phase is to be collected, conduct the sampling as follows:
If the thickness of the immiscible phase is two feet or greater, collect the immiscible phase
sample using a bottom-valve bailer. Lower the bailer slowly into the well until it contacts the
surface of the immiscible phase. Continue lowering the bailer to a depth less than the pre-
determined thickness of the immiscible layer.
If the thickness of the immiscible layer is less than two feet, a top filling bailer must be used. The
bailer can be weighted with a length of small-diameter stainless steel pipe. Lower the bailer
slowly into the well until the top of the bailer is level with the pre-determined top of the immiscible
layer. Lower the bailer an additional one-half thickness of the immiscible layer and retrieve the
sample.
4. Evacuate the well in accordance with Procedure GW-03.
5. Prior to sample collection, allow the water level in non-flowing wells to recover in order to produce the
necessary sample volume. Thoroughly decontaminate instruments used to check the depth to water
prior to use in the well and between purging and sampling (Procedure MD-02).
6. When collecting organic samples for VOC analyses with a pump, do not exceed 100 milliliters per minute
in pumping rate. If these rates are unattainable, use a bailer for sample collection (see Procedure GW-
06). Fill sample containers completely, leaving no head space.
7. Collect samples in prepared containers with the proper preservatives. If required, measure carbonate
and bicarbonate according to Procedure GF-05.
8. If any preservative is lost prior to or during the filling of a sample container (i.e., spilling or overflow), use
another prepared container.

6.10 PROCEDURE GW-10: SITE-WIDE WATER-LEVEL
MEASUREMENTS
In order to determine the potentiometric surface for a given aquifer or to determine the gradient between aquifers,
take water-level measurements during a relatively short period of time.
1. Measure the depth to water in non-flowing wells using Procedure GF-11.
2. If an oily substance is observed on the meter probe, follow Procedure GF-10 to measure the depth to the
immiscible layer and the depth to the oil/water interface.
3. Determine the hydraulic head of flowing wells using a manometer (for heads a few feet above the casing)
or transducer Procedures GF-12 and GF-13.
4. If using a manometer, measure the head above the marker point to the nearest 0.10 ft.

Please refer to Attachments - Figure GW-03. Request for Monitor Well Construction
Oversight of Drilling and Installation
Follow this procedure when serving as field geologist during installation of ground water monitoring wells. Select
the appropriate drilling method based on subsurface materials (unconsolidated or consolidated), requirements for
sampling (disturbed or undisturbed), and depth of borehole. Log and sample only the deepest borehole in nested
well installations. The drilling of deep boreholes will be interrupted to install a temporary casing and seal in the
confining layer (see "Deep Monitoring Well Installation" below). Continue sampling and formation logging upon
the resumption of drilling.
1. Use a Borehole Log (see Figure GW-4) during drilling and well construction to record information as
discussed below. Also use a Field Logbook to record activities each day (date, time, personnel on site,
problems/solutions, drilling conditions).
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 78 of 147
2. For drilling techniques which require the collection of undisturbed samples, use a Shelby tube, a split-
spoon sampler, or a core barrel to collect soil samples at least every five (5.0) feet and at major changes
in material. Record the number of blows required to advance the split spoon one-half (0.5) ft.
3. When drilling through contaminated soils, arrange for the proper containment and disposal of cuttings,
regardless of drilling method.
4. If contamination by organic compounds is suspected, place some of the drill cuttings or soil samples into
a clean glass jar and cover with aluminum foil. Allow the temperature of the soil to equilibrate with
ambient temperature. Insert the probe of a photoionization detector (PID) through the foil and into the
glass jar. Record the PID measurement on the Borehole Log at the appropriate depth.
5. Collect soil samples for laboratory analyses in sample jars or leave intact in stainless steel sleeves as
directed by the Project Manager or Project Work Plan. Place sample containers in a sealed Ziplock plastic
bag. Place the sample in a cooler with ice if organic analyses are planned. Record sample numbers at the
depth sampled on the Borehole Log and on the sample label. Include on the sample label and Borehole
Log the following:
• Well I.D.#;
• Time and date.
• Depth of sample.
• Analyses to be done; and
• The person collecting the sample.
6. Record on the Borehole Log the project name, borehole location, well I.D.#, date and time drilling began,
weather conditions (i.e., temperature, wind direction and speed, precipitation), drilling company, drilling
method, drilling crew names and your name. Provide a sketch of the well location noting measured
distances (approximate) from established landmarks and indicate the north direction.
7. During drilling, collect drill cuttings and record descriptions of soil samples using the Unified Soil
Classification System on the Borehole Log. Use standard geologic terminology to classify rock materials.
Note the color, moisture, texture, sorting, roundness/angularity, degree of cementation/consolidation,
fabric, bedding, orientation, depositional environment, formation name, and any evidence of
contamination or other characteristics related to hydrogeologic conditions.
8. Decontaminate the sampling device prior to collecting another sample (see Procedure MD-02).
9. Record the total borehole depth and drilled diameter per depth interval at the top of the Borehole Log.
Enter the approximate surface elevation.
Well Construction Oversight
Document well construction activities for each well installed, including all wells in nested sets.
Shallow Monitoring Well Installation
A "shallow" well is one which is drilled to less than 25 ft below the water table.
1. Upon drilling to the desired depth, select the screened interval based on anticipated annual water table
fluctuation at the site. Inform the driller of the lengths and intervals of casing and screen to be installed.
Measure the slot size and length of each section of screen and casing. Record the length, diameter, type
of casing used and screen slot size at the top of the Borehole Log. Locate a single centralizer in the
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 79 of 147
middle of the screen to ensure an evenly distributed sand pack. Ensure that the casing and screen are
sealed in contaminant-resistant wrappers prior to use and are handled and stored in a manner which
prevents contamination.
2. Ensure that the driller installs the PVC screen and casing through the augers or temporary casing, and
that care is taken not to contaminate the casing and screen. If an immiscible organic layer is presumed to
be present above the potentiometric surface, the top of the screen must be positioned in the well above
the potentiometric surface to allow sampling of the immiscible layer. Where well clusters are installed, one
well may be screened where the immiscible layer is expected, and another well may be screened in the
uppermost portion of the aquifer.
3. The sand must be added slowly to avoid "bridging" in the annulus between the PVC casing and borehole
wall. Preferably, use a tremie pipe for sand installation.
4. Confirm the depth to the sand pack ("tag the pack") periodically using a measuring tape with a weight
attached.
5. Ensure that the augers or temporary casing are slowly pulled as sand is added to the bottom of the
borehole.
6. Tag the pack to see how much sand is lost to the formation.
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until sand pack has been installed to two feet above the uppermost slot of the
well screen. Record on the Borehole Log the sand grain size and gradation, sand pack interval (depth to
top and bottom), and total amount of sand used (volume or weight).
8. Instruct the driller to add bentonite pellets or chips to form a bentonite seal at least two (2.0) feet thick.
Record the bentonite seal interval (depth to top and bottom) and the total amount of bentonite pellets or
chips used.
9. If the borehole is dry at the top of the sand pack, ensure that the driller adds approximately one gallon of
distilled water to swell the bentonite. Record the volume of water added to the borehole.
10. Instruct the driller to grout or concrete the annulus to the surface. Re-fill annulus as necessary to replace
concrete lost to porosity in the formation. Record the total amount of grout or concrete used.
11. Instruct the driller to install a protective casing (minimum of two feet above the ground surface, and a
locking cap) or manhole cover (sealed with an O-ring gasket) as detailed in the driller's statement of work
and specifications. Ensure that a vent hole in the well casing and a drain hole in the protective casing are
drilled as per specifications. Arrange for the installation of a grounding rod for pump generators.
12. Ensure that a locking cap is installed on the protective casing. Record key number on the Borehole Log.
The driller will also install a concrete pad (with an elevation marker point on the north side of the well) and
steel barricades (in high traffic areas) according to specifications.
13. Measure the water level inside the well and record at the top of the Borehole Log. At a minimum, return to
the well site in 24 hours to obtain another water level and record it on the Borehole Log.
14. Ensure that the driller steam cleans all down-hole equipment prior to beginning each new borehole.
Decontaminate water-level measurement equipment prior to use.
15. Complete the Borehole Log and submit it to the Project Manager or Field Team Leader. File a copy in the
Water Quality Data Filing System.

Monitoring Well Installation in Confined Aquifers
A "deep" well is a borehole in which the screened interval must not receive flow from an overlying perched water
zone or aquifer. Deep wells are typically drilled through a confining layer in order to sample the confined aquifer
and may result in a flowing well.
1. Select temporary casing large enough to allow smaller drill bits or augers to pass through to complete the
well. Larger augers may be used in place of temporary casing when the auger method is used.
2. Ensure that the driller installs the temporary casing at least one foot into the confining layer, although not
into the confined aquifer.
3. Instruct the driller to check the seal by pulling the drill rods and bailing the temporary casing or augers
dry.
4. Ensure that the driller adds a small quantity of bentonite to ensure the viability of the seal.
5. Instruct the driller to allow the temporary casing or augers to sit overnight.
6. Check the water level to ensure the integrity of the seal.
7. If the seal is intact, continue drilling through the confining layer to the desired depth.
8. Inform the driller of the lengths and intervals of casing and screen to be installed. Measure the slot size
and length of each section of screen and casing. Record the length, diameter, type of casing used and
screen slot size at the top of the Borehole Log. Locate a single centralizer in the middle of the screen to
ensure an evenly distributed sand pack. Ensure that the casing and screen are sealed in contaminant-
resistant wrappers prior to use and are handled and stored in a manner which prevents contamination.
9. Ensure that the driller installs the PVC screen and casing through the temporary casing or augers, and
that care is taken not to contaminate the screen and casing. If an immiscible organic layer is presumed to
be present above the potentiometric surface, the top of the screen must be positioned in the well above
the potentiometric surface to allow sampling of the immiscible layer. Where well clusters are installed, one
well may be screened where the immiscible layer is expected, and another well may be screened in the
uppermost portion of the aquifer.
10. The sand must be added slowly to avoid "bridging" in the annulus between the casing and borehole wall.
The use of a tremie pipe is mandatory.
11. Confirm the depth to the sand pack ("tag the pack") periodically using a measuring tape with a weight
attached or a wire line with a depth counter. Allow the sand to settle (approximately five minutes) to
ensure a more accurate top-of-sand measurement.
12. Ensure that you don’t pull the temporary casing until you have a good seal at the bottom of confining
layer.
13. Tag the pack to see how much sand is lost to the formation.
14. Repeat steps 10 through 13 until sand pack has been installed to two feet above the uppermost slot of
the well screen. Record on the Borehole Log the sand grain size and gradation, sand pack interval (depth
to top and bottom), and total amount of sand used (volume or weight).
15. Instruct the driller to add bentonite pellets or chips to form a bentonite seal at least two (2.0) feet thick.
Record the bentonite seal interval (depth of top and depth of bottom) and the total amount of bentonite

Page 81 of 147
pellets or chips used. If the bentonite seal must be installed through a column of water greater than 20
feet, install the bentonite seal as a slurry using a tremie pipe.
16. If the borehole is dry at the top of the sand pack, ensure that the driller adds approximately one gallon of
distilled water to swell the bentonite. Record the volume of water added to the borehole.
17. Instruct the driller to grout or concrete the annulus to the surface. If the column of water above the top of
the bentonite is greater than 20 feet, install the grout using a tremie pipe. Install concrete in lifts of no
more than approximately 50 feet to avoid melting of PVC casing during curing. Re-fill annulus as
necessary to replace concrete lost to porosity in the formation. Record the total amount of grout or
concrete used. If the temporary casing is to be extracted, assure that the grout or concrete seal is at least
1 foot above the bottom of the confining layer before the temporary casing is extracted. This will ensure
that no water flows from the upper or perched aquifer into the underlying aquifer.
18. Instruct the driller to install a protective casing (minimum of two feet above the ground surface, and a
locking cap) or manhole cover (sealed with an O-ring gasket) as detailed in the driller's statement of work
and specifications. Ensure that a vent hole in the well casing and a drain hole in the protective casing are
drilled as per specifications. Arrange for the installation of a grounding rod for pump generators.
19. Ensure that a locking cap is installed on the protective casing. Record key number on the Borehole Log.
The driller will also install a concrete pad (with an elevation marker point on the north side of the well) and
steel barricades (in high traffic areas) according to specifications.
20. Measure the water level inside the well and record at the top of the Borehole Log. At a minimum, return to
the well site to obtain another water level 24 hours from the first reading and record on the Borehole Log.
21. Ensure that the driller steam cleans all down-hole equipment prior to beginning each new borehole.
Decontaminate water-level measurement equipment prior to use.
22. Complete the Borehole Log and submit it to the Project Manager or Field Team Leader. File a copy in the
Water Quality Data Filing System.
Please refer to Attachments - Figure GW-4. Example Borehole Log
Surveying
1. Prepare a statement of work for a licensed surveying contractor to determine the location and elevation of
the ground surface and the top of the protective casing. The horizontal control will be Kennecott Mine
Datum to within + 3 ft (+ 1 meter). The elevation of the monument marker will be surveyed to within + 0.01
foot (+ 0.3 cm) using the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929. Corrected survey data will include
loop closure for survey accuracy within these limits.
2. The surveyor's report will include a list of coordinates, elevations, and system used. The report must also
include a map, and a description and location of all permanent and semipermanent reference points used
for horizontal and vertical control. This report will be filed in the Water Quality Data Filing System.
Geophysical Borehole Logging
Borehole geophysical techniques provide an efficient and cost-effective means to collect lithologic and hydrologic
information from wells and borings. These methods provide continuous measurements of physical properties
along the entire length of the borehole, supplementing the discrete information gathered by coring.
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 82 of 147
1. Calibrate and field-check all logging probes each day prior to beginning work at the site. Conduct testing
and calibration according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Document calibration and field-check
information for each particular logging probe on the borehole Log Header for that instrument. The
required Log Header information is provided in Figure GW-5. An example Log Header is presented in
Figure GW-6.
2. When borehole logs will be used for quantitative analyses, check each probe with the field standard
before and after the probe is run in the hole. Record the type of field standard used and the field check
values on the appropriate Log Header.
3. Choose an appropriate logging speed for each borehole technique based on the type of probe used,
noise conditions, and data resolution requirements. Record the logging speed on the Log Header.
4. Choose a vertical log scale based on appropriate resolution requirements, but not greater than 20 feet per
inch, or 2.5 meters per centimeter. Choose a horizontal scale to accommodate a reasonable range of
signal variation.
5. Reference log starting depth to a surveyed surface point.
6. When probes are used in combination, ensure that no probe shall interfere with the performance of
another probe in the same combination. Document the combinations used on the Log Header. Correct
the borehole measurements for difference measuring depths between probes. Note the correct logs as
such.
Procedures for Specific Borehole Geophysical Techniques
1. Electrical Logs: Measure and record the temperature of a sample of the drilling fluid on the Log Header. If
the logs are used in an augured hole, measure a sample of the borehole fluid immediately after logging.
2. SP Logs: Do not use SP logs for quantitative analysis except for the special case of no log response. Do
not adjust the shale baseline on an SP log while the log is being recorded.
3. Resistivity Logs: When resistivity logs will be used for quantitative analysis, apply the corrections to the
analyzed intervals. Make corrections appropriate to the type and make of probe used and document the
corrections. For short-normal resistivity logs, use probes with measurement electrode spacings of no
greater than 16 inches. For long-normal resistivity logs, use probes with measurement electrode spacings
of no greater than 64 inches.
4. Caliper Logs: Use a caliper probe with a minimum of three measuring arms. The arms should be of the
finger type and possess sufficient length to record the entire range of diameter change within a given
borehole.
5. Nuclear Logs: The logging supervisor will ensure that the individual performing the borehole geophysical
logging with probes containing radioisotopes shall be in compliance with all state and federal regulations
for handling, storing, and using radioactive sources. Run all other borehole logs chosen as part of the
logging suite prior to running any nuclear probes containing a radioisotope source. Use SPI units of
measurement on all nuclear logs. When using analog equipment, choose a time constant appropriate to
the data needs and site conditions, but which does not exceed 15 seconds. Choose a logging speed
appropriate to the data needs and site conditions which does not exceed 30 feet per minute. Correct the
data from the nuclear log for lag effects. Record the time constant, logging speed, and correction method
on the log header.

6.12 PROCEDURE GW-12: WELL ABANDONMENT
Follow this procedure for permanent abandonment of monitoring wells which have been determined to be no
longer useable or will be destroyed due to construction activities.
Preparation
Prepare a statement of work for a licensed drilling contractor to completely fill the well in a manner to prevent
vertical movement of water within the borehole and annular space surrounding the well casing. Include the
following requirements3 in the specifications:
1. The following materials may be used:
a) Neat Cement conforming to ASTM standard C150-94 of sufficient weight (not less than 15 lbs/gallon) to
prevent the flow of any water into the hole from any aquifer penetrated.
b) Cement grout consisting of equal parts of cement conforming to ASTM standard C150 and
sand/aggregate with no more than six (6) gallons of water per 94lb sack of cement.
c) Bentonite-based products specifically designed for permanent well abandonment, which are mixed and
placed according to manufacturer's recommended procedures (i.e., Plug-Gel, Shur-Gel, Benseal etc.).
d) The uppermost ten feet of the abandoned well casing or borehole shall consist of neat cement or cement
grout.
e) The liquid phase of the abandonment fluid shall be non-saline water containing no chemicals or toxic
materials or other substances which may decompose or possibly contaminate the ground water supply.
f) Abandonment materials placed opposite any non-water bearing intervals shall be at least as impervious
as the formation prior to penetration during the drilling process.
2. The casing will be pulled, if feasible and possible, while neat cement and cement grout are introduced at
the bottom of the wells and placed progressively upward using a grout pipe, tremie line or dump bailer in
order to avoid segregation, dilution, or bridging of materials. If the casing cannot be pulled and the seal is
of questionable integrity, the casing should be perforated. The screened and perforated intervals will be
pressure grouted. Bentonite-based products shall be mixed and placed according to manufacturer's
recommended procedures.
3. In flowing wells, a cement or grout plug will be placed in the confining stratum overlying the artesian zone.
The remainder of the well will be filled with cement grout, concrete, or bentonite products.
4. The casing, if left in place, shall be severed a minimum of two (2.0) feet below either the natural ground
surface adjacent to the well or at the collar of the hole, whichever is lower. A minimum of two feet of
compacted native material shall be placed above the abandoned well upon completion.
5. Upon completion, the site will be cleaned, and waste materials will be disposed of properly.
3This list is based on the "State of Utah Administrative Rules for Water Wells Drillers", adopted July 15,
1987. As of January 25, 1991, these rules remain in effect. Contact the Water Rights Division at 538-7240
for updates.
6. A report will be submitted to the Division of Water Rights by the driller within 30 days of completion of well
abandonment activities in accordance with Section 12.7 of the "State of Utah Administrative Rules For
Water Well Drillers".
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 86 of 147

7. If wells are to be abandoned in areas that may encounter hazardous materials, all personnel must have
current 40-hour OSHA Hazardous Materials training.
Oversight
An on-site engineer or geologist will:
1. Verify the water level and depth to the bottom of the well prior to abandonment activities using Procedure
GF-11.
2. Observe and verify all abandonment activities performed by the driller and document the information as
listed in the next section, "Documentation".
3. Twenty-four hours after abandonment is completed, check the borehole for settlement. Arrange for the
addition of grout and check in 24 hours, repeating until grout remains firm up to a point two (2.0) feet
below the surface. Arrange for the placement of two (2.0) feet of compacted native soil above the
abandoned borehole. Alternatively, if so directed by the Project Manager or Project Work Plan, arrange
for the installation of a concrete plug with a metal marker such that the borehole may be located in the
future.
Documentation
1. Document all field events for the well abandonment process in a Field Logbook, including the following
information:
a) Well I.D.# and Water Right or Drilling Permit Number.
b) Location with respect to the replacement well or to the nearest landmark.
c) Water level and depth to bottom prior to grouting and date measured.
d) Date, time and duration of each field event associated with the abandonment.
e) Description and amount of grout used initially and for each interval.
f) Description and daily quantities of grout used to compensate for settlement.
g) Drilling method.
h) Names of all on-site personnel and licensed drillers.
i) Explicit descriptions of problems encountered and/or any deviations from the planned approach.
j) Casing and materials (e.g., tremie pipes) left in hole (depth, composition, and size).
2. File a copy of the above field notes, as well as a diagram of the abandoned well column (materials/depth),
with the original borehole log in the Water Quality Filing System.
3. Ensure that the driller submits the required report to the Division of Water Rights within 30 days of
completion of well abandonment procedures.

6.13 PROCEDURE GW-13: WELL DEVELOPMENT
Well development is necessary to restore the natural hydraulic conductivity of the surrounding formation and
remove all foreign sediment. All new wells will be developed prior to sampling. Existing wells producing turbid
samples may also require development. Use this procedure after the monitoring well has been constructed.
1. Develop monitoring wells within 48 hours after well installation.
2. Measure the depth to water and the depth to the bottom of the well according to Procedure GF-11.
3. Subtract the depth to water from the depth to bottom to obtain the number of linear feet of standing water.
For flowing wells, the depth to water used in this calculation will be 0.0 ft. Calculate the volume of
standing water (casing and sand pack volume) as described in Procedure GW-03. Remove at least five
volumes by pumping. Development will be considered complete when the turbidity has substantially
decreased and the pH, temperature, and specific conductivity have stabilized.
4. Contain purged waters in the proper drums if contamination is suspected (see also Procedure GW-06).
5. Decontaminate the pump or bailer (if a non-disposable bailer is used) prior to developing another well.
6. Document all measurements and activities in the Field Logbook. The method of development, pH,
conductivity of casing water, removed volume of water during development, and length of time spent
developing the well will be recorded.

6.15 PROCEDURE GW-15: SAMPLE COLLECTION -
LYSIMETER
LYSIMETER IDENTIFICATION
All RTK soil moisture lysimeter sampling locations are identified utilizing a three-letter identification acronym
followed by a unique number ranging between 4100 and 4199. The site letter acronym identifies the general
location of the lysimeter as outlined in the procedures in GW-01.
LYSIMETER INSPECTION
Each time a lysimeter is to be sampled the inspection procedures outlined in GW-02 are to be followed. However,
additional troubleshooting may be required. For instance, if there is no remaining suction and no sample, follow-
up corrective action may be required. The status of the lysimeter is to be recorded as described in GW-02, as well
as on the lysimeter record keeping field form, using the appropriate lysimeter status number outlined in the
troubleshooting section.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following is a troubleshooting guide for suction lysimeter field sampling:
Lysimeter Status No.
1. Lysimeter has vacuum remaining that ranges from 20 to 50 centibar, sample volume is greater than
100ml. Meaning: Lysimeter is operating properly, if soil matrix potential is much less than applied suction.
Correction Action: None.
2. Lysimeter has vacuum remaining that ranges from 20 to 50 centibars, sample volume collected is 10 to
100ml. Meaning: Lysimeter is operating properly, if soil matrix potential is near applied suction. Corrective
Action: None; however, special precautions are needed to be observed in the analysis of low volume
samples. Prioritize analytical request.
3. Lysimeter has vacuum remaining that is greater than 20 centibars, no sample. Meaning: Lysimeter is
operating properly, if soil matrix potential is greater than the applied suction. Corrective Action: None.
4. Lysimeter has no vacuum remaining, no sample. Meaning: Soil matrix potential is less than the air entry
value or the lysimeter leaks. Corrective Action: Compare to water content records and to other lysimeters
at the same depth to see if it possible for the suction to be less than -2 bars. If not, inject 50ml of
deionized water and reapply vacuum. If vacuum is gone within an hour, replace lysimeter.
FIELD MEASUREMENTS
Field measurements will be collected during the procedure outlined in GW-04, including pH, specific conductance,
temperature, dissolved oxygen, ferrous iron, and sulfide (see CHEMets ampoules due to limited sampling
volume). Also, nitrites and nitrates are required for field measurements, using CHEMets ampoules specified for
these analyses. Follow the instructions provided with these CHEMets sample kits. A sample volume estimation is
also required after sample collection (0-700ml).
SAMPLING PROCEDURES - SAMPLE CONTAINER PREPARATION
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 90 of 147
1. Prepare sample containers prior to the sampling event. Use new laboratory-cleaned sample containers.
The containers should be rinsed three times with deionized water. Label the containers as directed by
procedure DC-04.
2. Use the proper containers and preservatives for each analytical parameter as specified in lysimeter
analysis priority table. Note: Due to the small amount of sample available, smaller containers are
sufficient for collection.
APPLYING VACUUM
1. Remove the cap from the PVC casing. Lightly pull on the two tubings found inside of casing. Be careful to
not pull the connected end of the tubings out of the lysimeter. Remove the plastic O-rings from the free
ends of the tubing.
2. Connect the hose of the nitrogen bottle regulator to the black tubing of the lysimeter. Open the regulator
valve, allowing no more than 15 lbs. pressure through the lysimeter. Purge lysimeter with nitrogen gas
until all stagnant water is evacuated and the gas is coming out of the white tubing.
3. Disconnect the regulator tubing from the lysimeter, bend the black neoprene end of the white tubing and
replace the O-ring--this restricts any inflow of air into the lysimeter.
4. Connect the black tubing of the lysimeter to the pressure-vacuum hand pump (Model 1920K1) on the
vacuum valve (valve must have vacuum dial gauge) at the bottom of the pump. Apply a vacuum to the
lysimeter until a stable 60 centibars is read on the vacuum dial gauge. Observe the gauge for a few
seconds to make sure lysimeter is holding the vacuum. Record the time, date, and the vacuum applied
(centibars) as indicated on the record keeping field form.
5. Before removing the black tubing from the hand pump, bend the neoprene end of the black tubing, and
replace the O-ring so it restricts any inflow of air. This will maintain the vacuum inside the lysimeter.
6. Replace both tubing’s back into the PVC casing. Replace cap on the casing head. Wait 24 hours to let
lysimeter collect a sufficient sample.
COLLECTING SAMPLE
1. Remove PVC cap from the head of the lysimeter casing. Lightly pull on the tubing, being careful to not
pull the connected ends out of the lysimeter.
2. Before removing the O-rings from the tubing, connect the black tubing to the vacuum valve of the
pressure-vacuum hand pump. Remove the O-ring and record the remaining value in the indicated space
on the record keeping field form.
3. Remove the O-ring from the white tubing. Thoroughly rinse the black neoprene endings of both tubes with
deionized water.
4. Connect the hose of the nitrogen bottle regulator to the end of the black tubing. Open the regulator valve,
allowing no more than 15 lbs. pressure through the lysimeter. Purge the lysimeter with nitrogen gas until
all the sample water is evacuated. Collect the sample in the pre-washed bottles required. Fill the
unpreserved bottle first. This will provide the fluid for field measurements. Be sure to take the samples
temperature upon purging the lysimeter to ensure it is a representative reading. NOTE: Take the
temperature from the sample in the unpreserved bottle--chemical reactions can affect the temperature
reading, giving an incorrect number.

5. When all the sample water is evacuated and collected, turn the nitrogen pressure off and remove the
hose from the black tubing. Replace the O-rings on the neoprene ends of the tubing, bending the ends to
prevent contamination of the lysimeter.
6. Replace both tubing back into the lysimeter PVC casing and replace cap on the casing head.

possible. These inspections are to be done in addition to other inspections that may be required by specific
procedures.
General Site Inspection
Upon arrival at each process water sampling site, the site will be inspected. The purpose of this inspection is to
document the sampling point is functional, the sampling equipment dedicated to the site (if any) is operating
correctly, and that the sampling point and/or equipment has not been tampered with. Any problems identified at
the site will be noted in the Field Logbook or designated Field Data Sheet and any equipment problems corrected.
Any major equipment problems or evidence of tampering will be reported to the Sampling Supervisor.
Comprehensive Inspection
The purpose of the comprehensive inspection is to document the sampling site. Sufficient detail and description is
to be provided to allow the exact location of the sampling site and the identification of sampling equipment present
at the site. A map of the site is to be drawn that locates all major features related to the sampling point.
Photographs of the site and sampling equipment will be taken to show sampling points, all measuring points, and
permanent sampling equipment. Any pertinent items concerning the condition of the sampling point, sampling
equipment, special sampling considerations, or its surroundings not included in the above information will be
noted.
For open water or seeps, the documentation required by Procedure SW-02 will also be provided. Process water

sample name. Special identification numbers for QC samples are described in Procedures QC-01 through QC-03.
Names for new sampling points will be assigned and approved by the Sampling Supervisor. The information listed
in Procedure SW-02 will accompany requests for new names.
Procedures to be used for naming new sampling points are provided in Procedure DC-02. A sample point
identification must be obtained for all new sampling points, whether permanent or not, to assure that if this site is
ever sampled again in the future the data from past sampling events can be identified. Prior to the selection of a
new sampling point, consideration should be given to the use of an existing sampling point. Existing sampling
points are identified in Table DC-01.
The following sections describe the general conventions used in identifying surface water sampling points prior to
the implementation of the present system.
Site Identification Acronym
The identification acronym consists of a three-letter code identifying the general location of the sample. For
example, the acronym "LCS" identifies a surface sampling point on Lee Creek.
General location acronyms used to date include:
VWS - Surface water sampling point located on the valley side of the Oquirrh Mountains.
LCS - Lee Creek.
RTC - Riter Canal.
BDC - Brighton Drain.
RWC - Right-of-Way Canal.
SZS - Spitz Spring
CSC - C-7 Ditch
CWC - C-7 Ditch (west)
KCS - Kersey Creek
RSC - Ridgeway South Canal
CLC - Clarification Canal
Sample Location Number
A sequence number or character is associated with each sampling point. That number is unique to the sampling
point and will not be used in other points.

8.11 PROCEDURE SW-02: SAMPLE POINT DESCRIPTION
Mark and survey each sample point for the first time. Follow this procedure to enable surveying. As directed by
the specific Project Work Plan, some points may require permanent markers.
1. Drive a pre-painted, orange wooden stake (2x2x24 inches) 12 to 14 inches into the ground. Use a
waterproof, indelible ink pen or place a metal label on the stake containing the sample identification
number.
2. Measure the location of the stake using a compass and range finder or surveying equipment. Record the
location in coordinates or a compass bearing and distance from a permanent object or from a section
corner on a USGS map. For non-permanent sampling points, locate the site on a USGS topographic or
another suitable map.
3. Document the sample point location on the Surface Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
4. Use a camera with date and time indicator if possible. Check current date and time to ensure accuracy.
5. Shoot a picture of the stake with reference points in the background. Reference points include stationary
objects used in locating the point. Shoot a picture of the stake relative to the overall site if site conditions
are relevant to the study.
6. Shoot a picture of the gauge used in measuring water level, as well as the location at which samples are
collected.
7. Record the picture numbers and roll number on the Surface Water Quality Field Data Sheet, as well as
the direction facing when taken.
8. Take other pictures as deemed necessary and record the above information on the Field Data Sheet.
9. Arrange for the installation of a temporary marker or permanent marker at the sampling location,
depending on the type of sampling point, as directed by the Project Work Plan.
10. If survey coordinates are to be obtained, prepare a statement of work for a licensed surveying contractor
to determine the location and elevation of the ground surface and permanent monument marker. The
horizontal control will be Kennecott Mine Datum to within + 3 ft (+ 1 meter). The elevation of the
monument marker will be surveyed to within + 0.01 foot (+ 0.3 cm) using the National Geodetic Vertical
Datum of 1929. Corrected survey data will include loop closure for survey accuracy within these limits.
11. The surveyor's report will include a list of coordinates, elevations, and system used. The report must also
include a map, and a description and location of all permanent and semipermanent reference points used
for horizontal and vertical control. This report will be filed in the Water Quality Data Filing System.

8.12 PROCEDURE SW-03: GENERAL PROTOCOL
1. Record pertinent site observations. Include a sketch and photographic documentation for first-time visits
to the site (Procedure SW-02). Identify sample location on the Surface Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
2. Measure the water levels relative to the monument marker described in Procedure SW-02. Measurement
should be accurate to 0.01 feet.
3. Thoroughly decontaminate instruments used in the sampling process. (Procedure MD-02).
4. Place sample containers on flat, stable surfaces for receiving samples.
5. Plan to collect samples first from those areas suspected of being the least contaminated to minimize the
risk of cross contamination.
6. Measure field parameters (pH, temperature, conductivity, etc.) as required by the Project Work Plan.
Measure these parameters at the source rather than in containers when possible. Record the time the
sample is collected and the time the field measurements are measured.
7. Collect samples in prepared containers with the proper preservatives. If required, measure carbonate and
bicarbonate according to Procedure GF-05.
8. Collect sample and securely close containers as quickly as feasible, eliminating any air space.
9. Attach the in-line filtering device with a 0.45-micron filter to collect samples which require filtering. Follow
the manufacturer's instructions for filter use. If field filtering is impossible, fill extra containers (labeled with
the Well ID # in indelible ink) for transport to the Field Office for filtering and filling of containers on the
same day as sample collection.
10. If any preservative is lost prior to or during the filling of a sample container (i.e., spilling or overflow), use
another prepared container.

8.13 PROCEDURE SW-04: FLOW MEASUREMENT
Flow Measurement Using Floats
The measurement of discharge volumes using floats can be performed within an accuracy range of + 10 percent
under good conditions. The estimate may be as much as 25 percent in error if a poor reach is selected and an
inadequate number of float runs are conducted.
1. Prepare a surface float by partially filling a bottle with water. A rod float may also be used (ie., a wooden
rod with a weighted end) if the water is deep enough such that the rod will not touch the stream bed.
2. Select two cross sections in the channel which are separated by a travel time of approximately two (2.0)
seconds. Shorter travel times may be used if a straight stretch is not available.
3. Measure the float time between the two cross sections several times at several sections across the
stream width.
4. Calculate the mean velocity of a given section as follows:
VS = VF (0.85)
where: VS = Mean velocity of section (feet per second);
VF= Float velocity (feet per second); and
0.85 = Coefficient to allow for the vertical velocity profile and
relative depth of immersion.
5. Calculate the area of each section (AS) as shown in Figure 1. This requires the measurement of depth at
each section center (i.e.., the location at which the float was placed).
6. Measure the water level relative to the monument marker.
7. Calculate the discharge for each section as follows:
DS = AS (VS)
Dg = Ds (60) (7.485)
where: DS = Discharge of section (cubic feet per second);
AS = Area of section (square feet); and
VS = Velocity in section (feet per second).
Dg = Discharge in gallons per minute
8. Calculate the total discharge rate for the channel by summing all sectional discharge rates.
Flow Measurement Using a Container
1. Calibrate container (e.g., 5-gallon bucket, 2-liter beaker, graduated cylinder)
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 126 of 147

Measurements (Buchanan and Somers. 1976).
2. Place container opening under the entire flow stream, if possible.
3. Record the time to fill container using a stopwatch or wristwatch with second hand.
4. Calculate the flow rate (Q) where:
Q= VT
Q = flow rate, gpm
V = captured volume, gallons
T = time required to capture V, minutes
Measurement of Surface Water Flow Velocity with A Pygmy Water Current Meter
The Pygmy Water Current Meter measures velocities between 0.5 and 3.0 feet/second (ft/sec) and is
recommended for use in shallow streams, flumes, and canals where low velocities and/or shallow water are
encountered. Options for use include a earphone and battery for counting bucket wheel revolutions or digital
readout for determining velocity. Velocity in ft/sec equals the revolutions of the bucket wheel per second.
1. Assemble the current meter and test for proper operation in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
2. Partition stream into sections (with tagline or bridge railing), visually observing the velocity and general
flow of the stream. Establish enough stations to prevent more than 10 percent of the total discharge from
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 127 of 147
passing through any individual partial section. Check the measurements and if necessary, readjust the
partitioned sections to upgrade the quality of the readings. Where possible, try to use the same cross
section throughout the study period and during all stream calibrations. However, the number and position
of stations within the cross section may be changed, if necessary, to accommodate changing flow
conditions.
3. Record stream gauge as indicated by one of the staff gauges (mark monument described in Procedure
SW-02) and record this value on the water level recorder chart at the point of pen contact.
4. Record a minimum of the following items on the data form or in the Field Logbook:
· Sample Identification Number.
· Site
· Date
· Time at start of measurements
· Stream stage at start of measurements
· Approximate wind direction and speed
· General stream condition (e.g., turbid, clear, low level, floating debris, water temperature, type of
streambed material, etc.)
· Other factors having a bearing on discharge measurements
· Location of initial point
· Total width of stream to be measured
· Type of current meter and conversion factor, if applicable; and
· Name of field staff taking above reading
5. Determine the depth and mean velocity at the first station or "initial point" if possible and record this
information. Always hold the wading rod vertical. When practical, make all measurements standing
behind and well to the side of the meter. Avoid disturbing or standing along the streambed beneath the
cross-sectional measuring points.
6. Measure the depth at the second station from initial point and record. Record the observed velocity at a
point 0.6 (60%) of the total depth below the surface as the mean velocity for the vertical. This method
(six-tenths depth method) works best for depths between 0.3 to 2.5 feet and is the measurement of
choice when measurements must be made quickly.
7. Perform the same procedure at each successive station as rapidly as possible.
8. Determine the depth and mean velocity at the last station, or endpoint, and record.
9. Record the ending time of this series of measurements and the stage.
10. Enter the ending stage value on the recorder chart at the point of pen contact. This information will
illustrate the interval of time and stage variations during the cross-sectional measurements. Also enter the
date and indicate that a calibration has taken place over this interval.
SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 128 of 147
11. Remove the tagline (if used); rinse the current meter in clean water, if necessary; allow the current meter
to dry; then pack it away in its carrying case.
12. To determine the volumetric flow through each subsection per unit of time, multiply the mean velocity of
each stream subsection by the area of that subsection. To determine the total discharge rate, sum all the
volumetric flows for each subsection across the entire cross section of the stream. To determine average stream
velocity, divide the total discharge rate by the total cross-sectional area.
Measurement of Surface Water Flow Velocity Using Pitot Tubes
Pitot tubes can be used to measure flow velocities in open channels because the difference in pressure between
an upstream reading and a downstream reading is directly related to flow velocity at the point of measurement.
Pitot tubes should be used where velocities are high enough to generate readable differences in pressure. They
are inaccurate at velocities less than one ft/sec. They are not reliable for streams carrying high concentrations of
suspended matter because the tube inlet plugs easily. Measurements are best made when the upstream straight
section is 15 to 20 times the channel width.
1. Partition the stream into subsections and position the Pitot tubes according to manufacturer's
specifications.
2. Determine the upstream pressure at the first station and record the value as P2.
3. Determine the downstream pressure at the first station and record the value as P1.
4. Repeat Steps No. 2 and 3 for each subsection of the stream.

5. To calculate the discharge rate:
Q = AV
Where Q is flow in ft3/sec, A is cross-sectional area of separate subsections of
the channel in ft2, and V is flow velocity in ft/sec.
6. To calculate V:
V = [2g(P2-P1)/d]0.5
Where g = 32.2 ft/sec, P2-P1 is the change in pressure in lb/ft2, and d is 62.4 in
lb/ft3 (the density of water). Substituting values for the two constants gives:
V = 1.02 (P2-P1)0.5
7. To determine the total discharge rate for the entire cross-sectional area, sum the discharge rates of the
individual subsections.

This section presents procedures associated with sediment sampling done in conjunction with water quality
sampling.

SOP – Groundwater Sampling
Rev: 10 | Rev Date: December 2023

Page 137 of 147
9.1 PROCEDURE SS-01: SAMPLE POINT IDENTIFICATION
Sediment can be defined as any matter which settles to the bottom of a liquid, ie; water body. All sediment
sampling locations are identified utilizing a three-letter identification acronym followed by a unique number
ranging from 0001 and 9999. No dashes and/or spaces are to be used in the sample name. Special identification
numbers for QC samples are described in Procedures QC-01 through QC-03.
Names for new sampling points will be assigned and approved by the Sampling Supervisor. The information listed
in Procedure SW-02 will accompany requests for new names.
Procedures to be used for naming new sampling points are provided in Procedure DC-02. A sample point
identification must be obtained for all new sampling points, whether permanent or not, to assure that if this site is
ever sampled again in the future the data from past sampling events can be identified. Prior to the selection of a
new sampling point, consideration should be given to the use of an existing sampling point. Existing sampling
points are identified in Table DC-02.
The following sections describe the general conventions used in identifying sediment sampling points prior to the
implementation of the present system.
Site Identification Acronym
The identification acronym consists of a three-letter code identifying the general location of the sample. For
example, the acronym "LCS" identifies a surface sampling point on Lee Creek.
General location acronyms used to date include:
VWS - Surface water sampling point located on the valley side of the Oquirrh Mountains.
LCS - Lee Creek.
RTC - Riter Canal.
BDC - Brighton Drain.
RWC - Right-of-Way Canal.
SZS - Spitz Spring
CSC - C-7 Ditch
CWC - C-7 Ditch (west)
KCS - Kersey Creek
RSC - Ridgeway South Canal
Sample Location Number
A sequence number or character is associated with each sampling point. That number is unique to the sampling
point and will not be used in other points.

9.2 PROCEDURE SS-02: SAMPLE POINT DESCRIPTION
Marking and surveying each sample point for the first time, follow this procedure to enable surveying. As directed
by the specific Project Work Plan, some points may require permanent markers.
1. Drive a pre-painted, orange wooden stake (2x2x24 inches) 12 to 14 inches into the ground. Use a
waterproof, indelible ink pen or place a metal label on the stake containing the sample identification
number.
2. Measure the location of the stake using a compass and range finder or surveying equipment. Record the
location in coordinates or a compass bearing and distance from a permanent object or from a section
corner on a USGS map. For non-permanent sampling points, locate the site on a USGS topographic or
another suitable map.
3. When using a compass, avoid interferences from massive metal objects (steel towers, tanks, drums etc.).
4. Document the sample point location on the Surface Water Quality Field Data Sheet.
5. Use a camera with date and time indicator if possible. Check current date and time to ensure accuracy.
6. Shoot a picture of the stake with reference points in the background. Reference points include stationary
objects used in locating the point. Shoot a picture of the stake relative to the overall site if site conditions
are relevant to the study.
7. Shoot a picture of the gauge used in measuring water level, as well as the location at which samples are
collected.
8. Record the picture numbers and roll number on the Surface Water Quality Field Data Sheet, as well as
the direction facing when taken.
9. Take other pictures as deemed necessary and record the above information in the Field Log Book.
10. Arrange for the installation of a temporary marker or permanent marker at the sampling location,
depending on the type of sampling point, as directed by the Project Work Plan.
11. Prepare a statement of work for a licensed surveying contractor to determine the location and elevation of
the ground surface and the monument marker. The horizontal control will be Kennecott Mine Datum to
within + 3 ft (+ 1 meter). The elevation of the permanent monument marker will be surveyed to within +
0.01 foot (+ 0.3 cm) using the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929. Corrected survey data will
include loop closure for survey accuracy within these limits.
12. The surveyor's report will include a list of coordinates, elevations, and system used. The report must also
include a map, and a description and location of all permanent and semipermanent reference points used
for horizontal and vertical control. This report will be filed in the Water Quality Data Filing System.

5. Measure field parameters (pH, temperature, etc.) as required by the Project Work Plan. Measure these
parameters at the source rather than in containers when possible. Record the time the sample is
collected and the time the field measurements are measured.

9.4 PROCEDURE SS-04: SEDIMENT SAMPLE FIELD DATA
SHEET
An example Sediment Sample Field Data Sheet is shown in Figure SS-01. Each item is described below:
Sample Location ID #: Identification number for the sediment sampling location (usually acronym plus
sequence number).
Date, Time: Date and time that sample was collected.
Sampling Personnel: Names of sampling personnel on site.
Photograph: File name and direction faced while photograph was taken of the staked
sampling point with a reference object in the background.
Sediment Description: Identify sampling intervals and provide a physical description of the sediment.
The textural description of sediments will be based on the
Unified Soil Classification System: Use standard geologic terminology to classify rock materials. Note the
color, moisture, texture, sorting, roundness/angularity, degree of
cementation/consolidation, fabric, bedding, orientation, depositional environment,
formation name, and any evidence of contamination or other characteristics
related to hydrogeologic conditions.
Site Description: A description of the site. The description must have sufficient details such that
the site may be located again. The description will also include vegetative
conditions nearby, as well as any features or conditions which may impact the
study.
Site Sketch/Cross Section: A sketch of the site with a map showing major features and landmarks in the
area. Reference an existing site map by number or document. Note north
direction. Include a cross section showing horizons on the sediment face of
surface sediment hole or trench.
Signature: The Field Team Leader or the Supervisor, Environmental Sampling will sign the
Sheet.
The Sediment Sample Field Data Sheet (Figure SS-1) will be filed in the project file.

9.5 PROCEDURE SS-05: SAMPLE COLLECTION –
GENERAL IONS AND METALS
1. For samples not collected in stainless steel sleeves, use glass containers with Teflon-lined lids if sample
will be submitted for chemical analyses.
2. First, collect sediment samples in areas expected to be the least contaminated and up-gradient from any
suspected contaminant source. Then, collect samples furthest down-gradient of the suspected source.
Finally, collect samples from the area closest to any suspected sources of contamination.
3. Avoid cross-contamination during sediment sampling. Sediment samples for laboratory analyses will
contact only stainless-steel sleeves, sleeve caps, the instruments used to extrude the sediment, glass
sample containers, or sampling devices. Decontaminate these and other sampling equipment between
samples and sampling locations according to Procedure 6.
4. Extrude the sediment from the sampler and quickly seal the sample containers (filled completely) to
minimize exposure of the sample and container to potential airborne contaminants and to minimize
volatilization of organic constituents and moisture.
Collection of Sediment Samples
Use the following procedure to collect samples of sediment from stream beds or the bottom of standing water
bodies.
1. Prior to sample collection, review the general sampling protocol presented above in Procedure SW-03.
2. Locate non-permanent sample sites on a parcel map and aerial photograph.
3. Travel to the site and mark the sample point in accordance with Procedure SS-02.
4. Collect shallow samples using a hand corer. (This device consists of a two-inch diameter vertical PVC
tube approximately 24 to 36 inches long. Attached to the upper end is a handle used when applying
downward force in collecting the sample. Attached to the lower end of the tube is a tapered nosepiece to
ease penetration into the sediment. Inside the nosepiece are teeth or slips to retain the sample inside the
tube when retrieving the core.) Force the corer into the sediment using a smooth continuous motion.
Twist the core and withdraw with a single smooth motion. Semi-solid sediments near the shore or above
the water line may be sampled using polypropylene scoops, trowels or dippers.
5. Collect samples from down-stream to up-stream locations to minimize sediment disturbance.
6. Collect sediments from deep (large streams or lakes) with a specialized sampler (e.g., Eckman or Ponar
dredge). Attach the necessary length of sample line. Measure and mark the distance to the top of the
sediment on the sample line. Open sampler jaws until latched. Support the sampler by its lift line. Tie the
free end of sampler to fixed support to prevent accidental loss of the sampler. Lower the sampler until the
depth mark is reached. Slowly descend the sampler through the last three feet until contact is felt. Allow
sample line to slack several inches. Slowly raise dredge.
7. Collect sediments from sumps using a very small sampling utensil, e.g., a suction pipette. If the sediment
is stratified, sample equal portions of all identifiable layers.
8. Collect four samples at each sample location.

9. Describe color, texture, consistency, moisture content, and pH using indicator paper.
10. Allow time for settling to occur. Decant the free water. Homogenize the samples in a stainless-steel bowl
to composite the sample.
11. Transfer the composite sample into an appropriate sample bottle with a stainless-steel laboratory spoon,
scoop, or spatula.
12. Label samples in accordance with Procedure DC-04.
13. Handle the sample as described in Procedures DC-05 and DC-06.
14. Collect QC samples, as discussed in Procedures QC-01 to QC-04, and process in the same manner as
other samples with respect to documentation and handling.
