Field and Sampling
Quality Assurance/Quality Control Procedures
Documentation of field activities was completed using a combination of logbooks, field data
records (FDRs), sample tracking systems, and sample custody records. Site and field logbooks
were completed to provide a general record of activities and events that occur during each field
task. FDRs have been designated for each exploration and sample collection task, to provide a
complete record of data obtained during the activity.
Field Logbooks
The field logbooks provided a daily handwritten account of field activities. Logbooks were
hardcover books that were permanently bound. All entries were made in indelible ink, and
corrections were made with a single line with the author initials and date. Each page of the
logbook was dated and initialed by the person completing the log. Partially completed pages
will have a line drawn through the unused portion at the end of each day with the author's
initials. The following information was generally entered into the field logbooks:
• The date and time of each entry. The daily log generally begins with the Pre -Job Safety
Brief;
• A summary of important tasks or subtasks completed during the day;
• A description of field tests completed in association with the daily task;
• A description of samples collected including documentation of any quality control
samples that were prepared (rinse blanks, duplicates, matrix spike, split samples, etc.);
• Documentation of equipment maintenance and calibration activities;
• Documentation of equipment decontamination activities; and
• Descriptions of deviations from the work plan.
Field Data Records
Sample FDRs contain sample collection and/or exploration details. An FDR was completed
each time a field sample was collected. The goal of the FDR was to document exploration and
sample collection methods, materials, dates and times, and sample locations and identifiers.
Field measurements and observations associated with a given exploration or sample collection
task were recorded on the FDRs. FDRs were maintained throughout the field program in files
that become a permanent record of field program activities.
Sample Identification
In order to ensure that each number for every field sample collected was unique, samples were
identified by the sample location and depth interval, if applicable (e.g., MW-11S (5-6). Samples
were numbered in accordance with the proposed sample IDs shown on Figure 10-1.
Field Equipment Calibration
Field sampling equipment (e.g., water quality meter) was properly maintained and calibrated
prior to and during continued use to assure that measurements were accurate within the
limitations of the equipment. Personnel will follow the manufacturers' instructions to determine
if the instruments were functioning within their established operation ranges. The calibration
data was recorded on a FDR.
To be acceptable, a field test must be bracketed between acceptable calibration results.
• The first check may be an initial calibration, but the second check must be a continuing
verification check.
• Each field instrument must be calibrated prior to use.
• Verify the calibration at no more than 24-hour intervals during use and at the end of the
use if the instrument will not be used the next day or time periods greater than 24 hours.
• Initial calibration and verification checks must meet the acceptance criteria
recommended by each instrument manufacturer.
• If an initial calibration or verification check fails to meet the acceptance criteria,
immediately recalibrate the instrument or remove it from service.
• If a calibration check fails to meet the acceptance criteria and it was not possible to
reanalyze the samples, the following actions must be taken:
• Report results between the last acceptable calibration check and the failed calibration
check as estimated (qualified with a "J");
• Include a narrative of the problem; and
• Shorten the time period between verification checks or repair/replace the instrument.
• If historically generated data demonstrate that a specific instrument remains stable for
extended periods of time, the interval between initial calibration and calibration checks
may be increased.
• Acceptable field data must be bracketed by acceptable checks. Data that was not
bracketed by acceptable checks must be qualified.
• Base the selected time interval on the shortest interval that the instrument maintains
stability.
• If an extended time interval was used and the instrument consistently fails to meet the
final calibration check, then the instrument may require maintenance to repair the
problem or the time period was too long and must be shortened.
• For continuous monitoring equipment, acceptable field data must be bracketed by
acceptable checks or the data must be qualified.
Sampling or field measurement instrument determined to be malfunctioning was repaired or was
replaced with a new piece of equipment.
Sample Custody Requirements
A program of sample custody was followed during sample handling activities in both field and
laboratory operations. This program was designed to assure that each sample was accounted
for at all times. The appropriate sampling and laboratory personnel will complete sample FDRs,
chain -of -custody records, and laboratory receipt sheets.
The primary objective of sample custody procedures was to obtain an accurate written record
that can trace the handling of all samples during the sample collection process, through
analysis, until final disposition.
Field Sample Custody
Sample custody for samples collected during each sampling event was maintained by the
personnel collecting the samples. Each sampler was responsible for documenting each sample
transfer, maintaining sample custody until the samples were shipped off -site, and sample
shipment. The sample custody protocol followed by the sampling personnel involves:
• Documenting procedures and amounts of reagents or supplies (e.g., filters) which
become an integral part of the sample from sample preparation and preservation;
• Recording sample locations, sample bottle identification, and specific sample acquisition
measures on appropriate forms;
• Using sample labels to document all information necessary for effective sample
tracking; and,
• Completing sample FDR forms to establish sample custody in the field before sample
shipment.
Prepared labels were normally developed for each sample prior to sample collection. At a
minimum, each label will contain:
• Sample location and depth (if applicable);
• Date and time collected;
• Sampler identification; and,
• Analyses requested and applicable preservative.
A manually -prepared chain -of -custody record was initiated at the time of sample collection. The
chain -of -custody record documents:
• Sample handling procedures including sample location, sample number, and number of
containers corresponding to each sample number;
• The requested analysis and applicable preservative;
• The dates and times of sample collection;
• The names of the sampler(s) and the person shipping the samples (if applicable);
• The date and time that samples were delivered for shipping (if applicable);
• Shipping information (e.g., FedEx Air Bill); and,
• The names of those responsible for receiving the samples at the laboratory.
Chain -of -custody records were prepared by the individual field samplers.
Sample Container Packing
Sample containers were packed in plastic coolers for shipment or pick up by the laboratory.
Bottles were packed tightly to reduce movement of bottles during transport. Ice was placed in
the cooler along with the chain -of -custody record in a separate, resealable, air tight, plastic bag.
A temperature blank provided by the laboratory will also be placed in each cooler prior to
shipment if required for the type of samples collected and analyses requested.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control Samples
The following Quality Assurance/Quality Control samples were collected during the proposed
field activities:
• Equipment rinse blanks (one per day or one per 20 samples);
• Field Duplicates (one per 20 samples for field and lab duplicates)
Equipment rinse blanks were collected from non -dedicated equipment used between wells and
from drilling equipment between soil samples. The field equipment was cleaned following
documented cleaning procedures. An aliquot of the final control rinse water was passed over
the cleaned equipment directly into a sample container and submitted for analysis. The
equipment rinse blanks enable evaluation of bias (systematic errors) that could occur due to
decontamination.
A field duplicate was a replicate sample prepared at the sampling locations from equal portions
of all sample aliquots combined to make the sample. Both the field duplicate and the sample
were collected at the same time, in the same container type, preserved in the same way, and
analyzed by the same laboratory as a measure of sampling and analytical precision.
Field QA/QC samples were analyzed for the same constituents as proposed for the soil and
groundwater samples, as identified on Table 8-2.
Decontamination Procedures
Decontamination Pad
A decontamination pad was constructed for field cleaning of drilling equipment. The
decontamination pad will meet the following requirements:
• The pad was constructed in an area believed to be free of surface contamination.
• The pad was lined with a water -impermeable material with no seams within the pad.
The material should be easily replaced (disposable) or repairable.
If possible, the pad was constructed on a level, paved surface to facilitate the removal of
decontamination water. This may be accomplished by either constructing the pad with
one corner lower than the rest, or by creating a lined sump or pit in one corner.
Sawhorses or racks constructed to hold field equipment while being cleaned were high
enough above ground to prevent equipment from being contacted by splashback during
decontamination.
Decontamination water was allowed to percolate into the ground adjacent to the
decontamination pad. Containment and disposal of decontamination water was not required.
At the completion of field activities, the decontamination pad was removed and any sump or pit
was backfilled with appropriate material.
Decontamination of Field Sampling Equipment
Field sampling equipment was decontaminated between sample locations using potable water
and phosphate -and -borax -free detergent solution and a brush, if necessary, to remove
particulate matter and surface films. Equipment will then be rinsed thoroughly with tap water to
remove detergent solution prior to use at the next sample location.
Decontamination of Drilling Equipment
Any downhole drilling equipment was steam cleaned between boreholes. The following
procedure was used for field cleaning augers, drill stems, rods, tools, and associated downhole
equipment.
• Hollow -stem augers, bits, drilling rods, split -spoon samplers and other downhole
equipment was placed on racks or sawhorses at least two feet above the floor of the
temporary decontamination pad. Soil, mud, and other material were removed by hand,
brushes, and potable water. The equipment was steam cleaned using a high pressure,
high temperature steam cleaner.
Downhole equipment was rinsed thoroughly with potable water after steam cleaning.
The clean equipment will then be removed from the decontamination pad and either placed on
the drill rig, if mobilizing immediately to the next boring, or placed on and covered with clean,
unused plastic sheeting if not used immediately.

Duke Energy — Marshall Water Page 2 of 4
TDS/TSS and Alkalinity. Initial and Continuing Calibration Blanks were acceptable. No
qualification was required.
EQUIPMENT BLANKS
Target analytes were detected in the equipment blanks (EB).
Total and Dissolved Metals: A number of the EBs contained detections of metals. Concentrations
of the detected metals were not qualified if less than 10 times concentrations detected in the soil
results. If the results were less than 10 times the blank concentration, data were qualified as UJ or
J+.
Additional Analytes: Additional analyses were collected and analyzed with the EBs. The results
were generally non -detect for the water quality analyses. Concentrations of the detected metals
were not qualified if less than 10 times concentrations detected in the soil results. If the results
were less than 10 times the blank concentration, data were qualified as UJ or J+.
V. LABORATORY CONTROL SAMPLES (LCS)
Recoveries and relative percent differences (RPDs) were generally within the laboratory's
control limits. If the LCS was outside of the acceptable criteria of 75-125% recovery the data
were qualified. Data were qualified as J- if the LCS recovery was less than 75% and J+ if the LCS
recovery was greater than 125%.
VI. MATRIX SPIKE / MATRIX SPIKE DUPLICATE (MS/MSD)
A sample was not designated on the COCs for MS/MSD analysis. An MS/MSD was analyzed
for each batch. If a site -specific MS/MSD sample was completed, a comparison of the RPDs
was completed. If a site -specific sample was not available, the MS/MSD was not evaluated.
Total and Dissolved Metals: Samples were diluted due to interferences with the ICPMS method
for all associated metals and samples up to 100X. Non -detect values may be diluted. The
recoveries of total and dissolved metals were generally acceptable, and limited qualification of

VII. FIELD DUPLICATES
Field duplicates were designated, but in some instances the sample pair could not be
determined based on the naming convention used in the field (fictitious name, DUP-X, Date -
Duplicate, etc.). If a field duplicate could be determined, the RPDs were calculated and
comparability between the field and duplicate samples completed. If the RPD was greater than
20% RPD, the field and duplicate analytes were qualified as J.
Duke Energy — Marshall Water Page 3 of 4

Laboratory duplicate (LD) analyses were performed on the TSS, TDS, alkalinity, TOC, chloride,
sulfate, nitrate, and pH samples. Results and were generally within acceptable criteria, and
minimal qualification was required. If results required qualification, the field and duplicate
samples were qualified J.
Total and Dissolved Metals: During several analyses the dissolved metal result was found to be
greater than the total metal result for several samples. The field personnel appeared to have
switched the total and dissolved bottles in the field. The laboratory confirmed the results by
reanalysis. Samples were qualified by the laboratory as CR for the following samples:

concentration.
Manganese (ll and IV): Manganese (total and dissolved) was generally detected in the method
(preparation) blanks. Qualification as blank contamination was provided as UJ or J+, unless the
result was greater than 10 x the blank concentration.
INITIAL AND CONTINUING CALIBRATION BLANKS
The ICB and CCB information was not provided by the laboratory as a BRL Level II data package.
The text within each of the data package indicated the ICB and CCB were within acceptable
criteria. Eurofins provided a Level III Data package and results required no qualification.
Chromium (VI): Initial and Continuing Calibration Blanks were acceptable. No qualification was
required.
Arsenic (111 and VI): Initial and Continuing Calibration Blanks were acceptable. No qualification
was required.
Selenium (IV and VI): Initial and Continuing Calibration Blanks were acceptable. No qualification

EQUIPMENT (SPECIATION AND PUMP) BLANKS
Target analytes were detected in the equipment, speciation, and pump blanks (EB, Spec Blank or
PB).
Duke Energy — Belews Creek Speciation Page 2 of 3
All Analyses: A number of the EBs contained detections of metals. Concentrations of the detected
metals were not qualified if less than 10 times concentrations detected in the soil results. If the
results were less than 10 times the blank concentration, data were qualified as UJ or J+.
V. LABORATORY CONTROL SAMPLES (LCS)
Recoveries and relative percent differences (RPDs) were generally within the laboratory's
control limits. If the LCS was outside of the acceptable criteria of 75-125% recovery the data
were qualified. Data were qualified as J- if the LCS recovery was less than 75% and J+ if the LCS
recovery was greater than 125%.
VI. INITIAL CALIBRATION VERIFICATION SAMPLES (ICV)
Brooks Rand Lab provided a combination of ICV and Certified Reference Materials to provide
an indication of compliance. In general, the ICV and Certified Reference Materials were within
acceptable criteria. Data were qualified as J- if the LCS recovery was less than 90% and J+ if
the LCS recovery was greater than 110%.
VII. MATRIX SPIKE / MATRIX SPIKE DUPLICATE (MS/MSD)
A sample was not designated on the COCs for MS/MSD analysis. An MS/MSD was analyzed
on every batch. If a site -specific MS/MSD sample was completed, a comparison of the RPDs
was completed. If a site -specific sample was not available, the MS/MSD was not evaluated. In
general, the MS/MSD for ferrous iron samples had a low recovery. Based on this information,
there is a notable matrix effect on some of the speciation analytes.
VIII. FIELD DUPLICATES
Field duplicates were designated, but in some instances the sample pair could not be
determined based on the naming convention used in the field (fictitious name, DUP-X, Date -
Duplicate, etc.). If a field duplicate could be determined, the RPDs were calculated and
comparability between the field and duplicate samples completed. If the RPD was greater than
20% RPD, the field and duplicate analytes were qualified as J.
IX. LABORATORY (MATRIX) DUPLICATES
Laboratory duplicate (LD) analyses were performed on the samples and were generally within
acceptable criteria, and minimal qualification was required, except for chromium and ferrous iron
on duplicate analyses. The RPD indicated a potential matrix effect.
X. INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION
Instrument calibrations were not provided; however, the laboratory indicated the calibrations were
within acceptable criteria and requirements were met. No qualification was required.
XII. SAMPLE REPORTING LIMITS
All RLs were at or below either the regulatory criteria for human health criteria. The hexavalent
chromium RL was less than 70 pg/L for all the laboratories. The RLs were generally at or below
the ecological criteria, if available for metals speciation.
XIII. SAMPLE RESULTS / TRANSCRIPTION VERIFICATION
Transcription between the data package and the EDDs was verified. Results reported between
the MDLs and RLs were qualified as estimated (J).

less than the MRL for results less than five times the MRL, as suggested in the Functional
Guidelines, were met and no qualification was required except as noted below.
Ra-226: The RPD between the parent sample and its FD was 173%, above the control limit.
The concentrations in the parent and FD samples were 96.1 pCi/L and 6.86 pCi/L, respectively.
Ra-226 in the FD has been qualified as estimated with a possible low bias (J-), and Ra-226 in
the parent sample has been qualified as estimated (J).
VIII. LABORATORY DUPLICATES
Laboratory duplicate (LID) analyses were performed on some samples from this project. Control
limits of 20% RPD, or less than the MRL for results less than five times the MRL, as suggested
in the Functional Guidelines, were met and no qualification was required except as noted below.
Ra-226: The RPD between the parent sample MW-7S and its LID was 23%, above the control
limit, and this result has been qualified as estimated (J).
IX. INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION
Instrument calibration information was not assessed, as it was not included in the data packages.
X. SAMPLE RESULTS / TRANSCRIPTION VERIFICATION
Transcription between the data package and the EDDs was verified. Results reported between
the MDLs and RLs were qualified as estimated (J).
