OVERVIEW

Case 34031, Sample Delivery Groups (SDGs) MCOOB4 and MCOOK7, consisted of forty (40)soil samples analyzed for total metals and cyanide (CN~) by Chemtech Consulting Group(CHEM). The sample set included five (5) field duplicate pairs. Samples were analyzed inaccordance with Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) Statement of Work (SOW) ILM05.3through Routine Analytical Services (RAS) program.

SUMMARY

All samples were successfully analyzed for all Target Analyte List (TAL) parameters. Areas ofconcern with respect to data usability are listed below.

Data in this case have been impacted by technical holding time as well as by outliers present inthe laboratory blanks, matrix spike and serial dilution analyses. Details of these outliers arediscussed under "Minor Problems"; specific samples affected are outlined in "Table 1 A" andqualified analytical results for all samples are summarized on the Data Summary Forms (DSFs).

MINOR PROBLEMS

The aqueous technical holding time of twenty-eight (28) days from time of sample collection tosample analysis for mercury (Hg) has been exceeded by forty-three (43) days for sample MC0085in SDG MCOOK7. Although no technical holding time has been established for soil samples, theaqueous holding time was applied by the reviewer. The quantitation limit for this analyte in thisSDG may be biased low and has been qualified "UL" on the DSF.

AR118865

NOTES

Reported results between MDLs and Contract Required Quantitation Limits (CRQLs) werequalified "J" on the DSFs unless superseded by "B".

The SDG Narrative explains that the laboratory received sample MC0085 in SDG MCOOK7 withone (1) soil jar whereas all other samples were received with two (2) soil jars (one for metalsanalysis and one for cyanide analysis). Furthermore, the Chain of Custody (CoC) Record liststhis sample for cyanide analysis only. According to Region HI, though, it is acceptable for thelaboratory to analyze this sample for both total metals and cyanide using this one (1) soil jar.Originally, the laboratory only reported results for this sample from the cyanide analysis;however, the laboratory resubmitted the data for SDG MCOOK7 to include results for all analytesfor sample MC0085. These resubmitted results are reported on the DSF for sample MC0085.

In SDG MCOOK7, one (1) of the CRQL check standard recoveries (CRI02) in the secondanalytical run for Hg was high (>130%). Therefore, the laboratory reanalyzed the CRQL checkstandard as CRI03, which was inside the control limits. No data were qualified based on thisfinding.

Relative Percent Differences (RPDs) for the laboratory duplicate analyses were outsidecontractual control limits (20% RPD, ±CRQL) for Mn in SDG MCOOB4 as well as for calcium(Ca) and Hg in SDG MCOOK7. However, RPDs for these analytes were within Region 3established control limits (35% RPD, ±2XCRQL) for soil analysis. No data were qualified forthese analytes in these SDGs based on laboratory duplicate imprecision.

Reported results for field duplicate pair MCOODO/MC0066 were within 35% RPD, ±2XCRQLfor all analytes except iron (Fe).

Reported results for field duplicate pair MCOOC7/MC0077 were within 35% RPD, ±2XCRQLfor all analytes except Co, Fe, lead (Pb) and Mn.

Reported results for field duplicate pair MCOOC9/MC0086 were within 35% RPD, ±2XCRQLfor all analytes except barium (Ba) and Ca.

Reported results for field duplicate pair MCOOC8/MC0182 were within 35% RPD, ±2XCRQLfor all analytes except As, Co, Pb and Mn.

Reported results for field duplicate pair MCOOG1/MC0001 were within 35% RPD, ±2XCRQLfor all analytes except Hg.

The post-digestion spike recovery was low for Mn in SDG MCOOB4; however, data are notqualified based on the post-digestion spike recovery.

B. Parameters '

Test requested for Total Metals and Cyanide.

C. Cooler Temp

Indicator Bottle: Presence/AbsenceCooler: 4°C

D. Detail Documentation (related to Sample HandlingShipping, Analytical Problem, Temp of Cooler etc):

Issue: The TR did not designate samples for laboratory QC for a few SDGs. The lab would liketo choose samples MC0141, MCOOA1, and MC0180 for this purpose.

Issue: The lab indicated that each sample received for Case 3403 1 consisted of 2 soil jars (1Metals, 1 Cyanide), however sample MC0085 was only sent with one Metal jar. The lab wouldlike to know if they should use the Metals jar for sample MC0085 to analyze for Metals andCyanide.

Also,

Samples shipped to the incorrect laboratoryIssue 1 : The lab received organic samples along with their inorganic shipment. The lab receivedsamples C0068-COOC1 (on 2 TR's). Please provide an address and billing information if the.samples should be trans-shipped.

E. Corrective Action taken for above:

Following is the resolution to the issue below:Issue: The TR did not designate samples for laboratory QC for a few SDGs. The lab would liketo choose samples MC0141, MCOOA1, and MCOl80 for this purpose.Resolution: In accordance with previous direction from Region 3, for both Inorganic and OrganicMulti-Media samples, the laboratory will select a sample for laboratory QC as long as the sampleis not a PE, blank, or rinsate sample. The laboratory will note the issue in the Case/SDGNarrative, notify fhe SMO coordinator of the sample selected for laboratory QC, and proceedwith the analysis of the samples.SMO will note that the lab chose samples MC0141, MCOOA1, and MCOl80 for laboratory QC.Please indicate which SDG each of these samples is assigned to for laboratory QC.

Following is the resolution to the issue below:Issue: The lab indicated that each sample received for Case 34031 consisted of 2 soil jars (1Metals, 1 Cyanide), however sample MC0085 was only sent with one Metal jar. The lab wouldlike to know if they should use the Metals jar for sample MC0085 to analyze for Metals andCyanide.Resolution: Per Region 3, it is acceptable for the lab to analyze for Metals and Cyanide from theMetal jar for sample MC0085.

Also,

Following is an update to the Record of Communication of Case 34031. For issue 3, the sampleIDs affected are now listed.Samples shipped to the incorrect laboratoryIssue 1: The lab received organic samples along with their inorganic shipment.

F. Analytical Techniques:

All analyses were based on CLP Methodology by method ILM05.3

G. Calculation:

Conversion of results from mg/L to mg/kg (Dry Weight Basis):

Mg/Kg = (Result in mg/L) X 1000 X 1007 % Solid X Fraction of Sample Amount Taken in Prep.

G. QA7 QC

Calibrations met requirements. Interference check met requirements. Blank analyses did not indicateany presence of contamination. Laboratory Control sample was within control limits. Spike sample didmet requirements except for Few Elements. Duplicate sample did met requirements except for theManganese. Serial Dilution did met requirements except for Few Elelements.

I certify that the data package is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the contract bothtechnically and for completeness, for other than the conditions detailed above.

Dan:

Following is the response from the Lab regarding the questions from the sampler. Please advise on if the labshould proceed with analysis or proceed with transshipping the samples.

1. What was the CLP number that was printed on the label (if it was the MC series, then the analyses noted onthe label are incorrect)?2. What was the CLP number that was printed on the bottle tag, as well as the specified analyses?3. Do the tag numbers from the bottles in question match the TR.?

The information for Station Location, Collection Time, & Date match w/ the Tag, Bottle 's Label and TR.

Discrepancies with tags, jars, and/or TR/COCIssue 3: All of the inorganic samples were listed on the TR/COC for DM and TM, however theseare all soil samples. The sample IDs affected are MC0117, MC0118, MC0119, MC0120,MC0121, MC0122, MC0123, MC0125, MC0126, MC0217, and MC0218.

E. Corrective Action taken for above:

Following is the resolution to the issue below:Issue: The TR did not designate samples for laboratory QC for a few SDGs. The lab would liketo choose samples MCO141, MCOOA1, and MC0180 for this purpose.Resolution: In accordance with previous direction from Region 3, for both Inorganic and OrganicMulti-Media samples, the laboratory will select a sample for laboratory QC as long as the sampleis,not a PE, blank, or rinsate sample. The laboratory will note the issue in the Case/SDGNarrative, notify the SMO coordinator of the sample selected for laboratory QC, and proceedwith the analysis of the samples.SMO will note that the lab chose samples MCO 141, MCOOA1, and MCO 180 for laboratory QC.Please indicate which SDG each of these samples is assigned to for laboratory QC.

Following is the resolution to the issue below:Issue: The lab indicated that each sample received for Case 34031 consisted of 2 soil jars (1Metals, 1 Cyanide), however sample MC0085 was only sent with one Metal jar. The lab wouldlike to know if they should use the Metals jar for sample MC0085 to analyze for Metals andCyanide.Resolution: Per Region 3, it is acceptable for the lab to analyze for Metals and Cyanide from theMetal jar for sample MC0085.

Also,

Following is an update to the Record of Communication of Case 34031. For issue 3, the sampleIDs affected are now listed.Samples shipped to the incorrect laboratoryIssue 1: The lab received organic samples along with their inorganic shipment.

Mike,

Issue 1: SMO can provide trans-shipment information to the lab.Issue 2: No, SMO should not ask the lab to change C0125 to MCOI25. A memo to file from fieldpersonnel will clarify this issue. The lab will use CO 125 as sample ED when reporting results or SMOcan provide a new CLP sample ID number.Issue 3: Yes, the lab should only analyze for total metals.
