Introduction This data validation report is based on a Tier I review of SDG # 9605880 along with a Tier III review of 10% of the sample data. There were ten (10) soii samples, two associated (2) field blanks and one (1) trip blank collected October 24, 1996 - November 1, 1996 by Aaron Environmental Services from the Envirite Site in Thomaston, Connecticut. Therefore, one soil sample (West UST Composite 5' - 9605883) was validated using a Tier III review. The data validation was performed using Region I EPA-NE Data Validation Functional Guidelines for Evaluating Environmental Analysis. December 1996 and the Laboraton/ Data Validation Functional Guidelines for Evaluating Inorganics Analyses (U.S. EPA June 13,1988, revised February 1989). The laboratory's approved QAPP and the criteria in the specific non-CLP Methods were used to evaluate the data. The analyses were performed in accordance with: 1) APHA Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 18th Edition, 1992. 2) Clean Water Act, List of Approved Test Procedures, 40 CFR. 3) EPA Test Methods for the Evaluation of Solid Waste, SW-846, 3rd Edition, December 1987.

The data was evaluated based on the following parameters for organics analysis: • Overall Evaluation of the Data and Potential Usability Issues • Data Completeness • Preservation and Technical Holding Times 0 GC/MS Instrument Performance Check (Tuning) • Initial and Continuing Calibrations • Blanks • Surrogate Compounds 0 Internal Standards 'CJ Matrix Spike/Matrix Spike Duplicate zZ7 Field Duplicates 'CD Sensitivity Check • PE Samples Accuracy Check • Target Compound Identification • Compound Quantitation and Reported Quantitation Limits 'CJ Tentatively Identified Compounds C J Semivolatile Clean-up • System Performance The data was evaluated based on the following parameters for the inorganics analysis: • Overall Evaluation of the Data and Potential Usability Issues • Data Completeness • Preservation and Holding Times 0 Calibration • Blanks iJJ ICP Interference Check Sample • Matrix Spike Analysis • Laboratory Duplicate Sample Analysis 'JJJ Field Duplicate Sample Analysis • Laboratory Control Sample Analysis 0 Furnace Atomic Absorption Sample Analysis 'CJ ICP Serial Dilution Sample Analysis 'CJ Detection Limits • Sample Result Verification 0 All Criteria were met for this parameter; and therefore the associated worksheets have not been included. 'jJJ Not applicable to requirements of the method and/or the approved laboratory QAPP; and therefore the associated worksheets have not been included. Page 2
