4.0 QUALITY ASSURANCE CONTROL

4.1 LABORATORY OPERATIONS

Laboratories performing analysis in support of this Tank Sampling and Analysis Plan shall have approved and implemented quality assurance plans. shall meet the Hanford Analytical Services Quality Assurance Plan (DOE 1995) minimum requirements as the base1 ine for laboratory quality systems. Quality requirements for conducting Characterization Project sampling and analysis are described in TWRS Characterization Program Quality Assurance Program Plan (Whelan 1994), Fiscal Year 1996 Tank Waste Remediation System Tank Waste Analysis Plan (Homi 1995b), and in this SAP. conformance with these quality assurance requirements.

These QA plans

4.2 SAMPLE COLLECTION

Before sampling can be performed on a tank, available risers must be identified for use in the sampling event. prepared to confirm their ability to be used in sampling. identified for which special precautions must be made. sampling and tank cognizant engineers, video surveillance should be performed to identify any potential problems that may occur during the sampling event.

The selected risers must be inspected and Safety hazards must be

Samples are to be taken from tank BX-110 and shipped to the performing laboratory by Sampling Operations in accordance with the respective work package. That work package shall also initiate the chain-of-custody for the samples. Approved procedure TO-080-090 ("Load/Transport Sample Cask(s)") is to be used during the sampling event. Samples shall be identified by a unique number before being shipped to the performing laboratory. The sampling team is responsible for documenting any problems and procedural changes affecting the validity of the sample in a field notebook. comment section of the chain-of-custody form for addition to the data reports.

Sampling Operations should transport each sample collected to the performing laboratory within 1 working day of removing the sample from the tank, but must transport each segment or sample within 3 calendar days. responsible for verbally notifying the WHC 222-S Laboratory (373-2435) at least 24 hours in advance of an expected shipment.

5.1 EXCEPTIONS TO DQO REQUIREMENTS

I n t h e sa fe ty screening DQO, cyanide analys is i s requ i red on a quarter-segment basis i f t h e t o t a l organic carbon r e s u l t i s l e s s than three weight percent. However, s ince t h i s would r e q u i r e subsampling a l l sludge samples on a quarter-segment basis, t he Ferrocyanide Safety Program has concurred t h a t t he cyanide analysis, i f necessary, s h a l l be performed on a half-segment basis.

However, i f the n o t i f i c a t i o n 1 i m i t f o r t o t a l alpha analys is i s exceeded, secondary analyses are requ i red o n l y on sludge samples. revealed t h a t i f t h e t o t a l alpha analys is n o t i f i c a t i o n l i m i t i s exceeded f o r a sa l tcake o r a d ra inab le 1 i q u i d sample, secondary analyses are requi red. these secondary analyses have been inc luded i n Table 1.

This report shall include the results of the analyses required by the organic DQO (see Table 1 for delineation of program requests). provided to the Characterization Project, Organic Safety Program, the Tank Characterization Resource Center, and Tank Characterization Database representatives within 105 days of the sampling event. Detailed information regarding the contents of this reporting format are given in Schreiber (1994a).

In addition to this data package, an electronic version of the analytical results shall be provided to the Tank Characterization Database representative. The data must be available to the Washington State Department of Ecology within 216 days of the sampling event, so this electronic copy must be sent at the time of data package delivery or within 209 days of the sampling event, whichever is earlier, to allow time for data entry. The electronic version shall be in the standard electronic format specified in (Bobrowski 1994).

7.0 CHANGE CONTROL

Under certain circumstances, it may become necessary for the performing laboratory to make decisions concerning a sample without review of the data by the customer or the Characterization Project. the use of internal characterization change notices or analytical deviation reports for minor low-impact changes and documented in applicable laboratory reports. All significant changes (such as changes in scope) shall be documented by Characterization Plans, Coordination and Reports via an Engineering Change notice to this plan.
