Show APPENDIXC SOIL AND DEMOLITION DEBRIS QUALITY ASSURANCE AND SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PLAN C.1.0 INTRODUCTION This Soil and Demolition Debris Quality Assurance Project Plan and Sampling and Analysis Plan (Sampling Plan) establishes the guidelines for collecting representative soil and demolition debris samples at Kennecott North Facilities soils removal, demolition, and reclamation projects. The North Facilities include a variety of sites that may be contaminated from past operational facilities. The following sections include site descriptions and available history, sampling and analytical protocols, and quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) procedures. Each site may have unique characteristics requiring different approaches to sampling and analysis, therefore, addenda to this Sampling Plan will be included for site-specific sampling and analytical requirements. For the purposes of this Sampling Plan all soil-like material will be referred to as soil, although other materials (such as tailings, slag, or dust) and demolition debris may be sampled at some sites. C.1.1 Objectives - The sampling program is designed to fulfill data objectives that include: • • • • • • The samples collected are representative of the materials sampled; Sample integrity is maintained and documented; Proper measurements and information are recorded; Sample volumes are sufficient for the required analytical procedures; Analytical results adequately characterize soil; and The sampling protocol is efficient and relatively uncomplicated. C.1.2 Project Task and Description Kennecott Utah Copper Corporation (Kennecott), as part of the continuing property-wide clean up efforts, will conduct removal of contaminated soils and sludge and demolition of selected structures at their North Facilities near Magna, Utah. The Kennecott North Facilities include the Noranda Smelter, Refinery, Arthur Concentrator Site (facility was demolished in 1992), Magna Concentrator, and the Bonneville Crusher at the north end of the Oquirrh Mountains (Dwg. No. 500-T-0006). This property has been used for industrial purposes, specifically mineral processing and smelting, for approximately 100 years. Soil and debris characterization activities have been and will continue to be implemented to assess existing site conditions. Potential hazards to human health and the environment will be evaluated to support removal action decision making. This Sampling Plan pertains only to soil and other solid waste potentially contaminated with inorganic substances (primarily metals). Ground water Appendix C* July 18, 1996 Rev. C |
