b. For Total Organic Carbon (TOC), if concentrations greater than 10 mg/1 are detected in any
down -gradient monitoring well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify
the individual constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as
measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 mg/l, this concentration will be taken to
represent the naturally occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring
TOC concentration in the down -gradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and
analysis as described above.
c. For Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) sampled in November, use only one of the following
methods:
1) Standard Method 6230D, Practical Quantitation Limit (PQL) at 0.5 ug/L or less
2) Standard Method 6210, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
3) EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
4) EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
