APPENDIX A<br />

1. INTRODUCTION<br />

This Base-Wide Field Sampling Plan (FSP) has been prepared as part of the Kirtland Air Force Base<br />

(AFB) Base-Wide Plan (BWP) required to support environmental restoration activities at Kirtland AFB<br />

in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This appendix was previously included as part of the Data Collection<br />

Quality Assurance Plan (DCQAP), Volume II of the BWP as Part I of the DCQAP.<br />

Environmental restoration activities at Kirtland AFB include:<br />

Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) facility investigations (RFIs)<br />

Solid Waste Management Unit assessments<br />

Risk assessments<br />

Corrective measures studies<br />

Corrective actions<br />

Monitoring of natural systems and treatment operations<br />

Other site investigations and associated work efforts<br />

This FSP has been prepared in accordance with the requirements and guidelines for data collection<br />

activities established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Army Corps of<br />

Engineers (USACE), Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) and the U.S. Air Force<br />

(USAF).<br />

1.1 Purpose and Scope<br />

The purpose of this Base-Wide FSP is to provide a comprehensive set of strategies for conducting the<br />

field sampling operations that are integral to the performance of a variety of environmental restoration<br />

activities. This FSP provides the framework and the criteria for establishing project specific FSPs, which<br />

will be issued as addenda to this document.<br />

The extent to which this Base-Wide FSP will apply to the project-specific FSPs, either wholly or in part,<br />

will depend upon the nature and scope of the individual projects. The specific project requirements will<br />

be addressed in the project-specific addenda. Detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for all<br />

tasks necessary to complete field investigations are provided in Appendix B of the BWP. During the<br />

course of these projects, new or different procedures may be incorporated. Any such changes or<br />

additions will be described in both the Base-Wide and project-specific FSPs in the form of revisions or<br />

addenda, following approval by Kirtland AFB, AFCEE (as appropriate), USACE (as appropriate), and<br />

the regulatory agencies.<br />

1.2 Organization of Field Sampling Plan<br />

The FSP includes discussions related to site background information, sampling procedures, and<br />

management of field operations. The FSP is organized as follows:<br />
