Additional procedures provided in this update to the SOPs includes data evaluation protocol for using<br />

NMED-approved background values for soil and groundwater and using NMED guidance for evaluating<br />

risk. Also included in Appendix B is a memorandum for Radioactively-Contaminated or Mixed Waste<br />

Sites in the U.S. Air Force that provides guidance applicable to radioactive sites designated at Kirtland<br />

AFB.<br />

4.3 Guidance for Field Quality Control Samples<br />

4.3.1 Trip Blank<br />

A trip blank is a VOC sample vial filled in the laboratory with Type II Reagent Grade Water, transported<br />

to the site, handled like a sample, and returned to the laboratory for analysis. Trip blanks will not be<br />

opened in the field. The trip blank for soils is identical to the trip blank for water samples and is handled<br />

and analyzed in the same manner.<br />

4.3.2 Temperature Blank<br />

A temperature blank consists of a 40-milliliter VOC vial filled with Type II Reagent Grade water and<br />

placed in the middle of the cooler or another representative location during packing of the cooler. The<br />

temperature blank is used to measure the actual temperature of the samples in the cooler as received by<br />

the laboratory. The temperature is measured by placing a thermometer directly into the vial.<br />
