STEP 1. SAFETY BEFORE SAMPLING, MAKE SURE YOU ARE PREPARED WITH THE FOLLOWING: Vaccinations Hand Sanitizer Gloves + Field Gear It is recommended that you get the Use hand sanitizer wipes Make sure you wear proper field gear such as boots vaccinations for: after each sample Use gloves during sampling and discard afterwards 1. Hepatitis A & B inside cooler 2. Tetanus
STEP 2. PREPARATION BEFORE SAMPLING, MAKE SURE THAT YOU PREPARE THE NECESSARY EQUIPMENT AND CONTACTS: Pick a date! Taiga Lab Bottles and Cooler Ice packs Select a date each month Contact Taiga Lab and let Order bottles and a cooler from Community should to collect samples them know you are Taiga Lab 3 days advance of have ice packs ready planning to send them sampling date to keep samples (use bottle order form, see samples cold (but not frozen) Additional Attachments)
STEP 2. PREPARATION BEFORE SAMPLING, PREPARE THE NECESSARY EQUIPMENT & CONTACTS: PHENOL STERILE Mercury TSS, Ammonia, Faecal Phenols BOD/ Oil & Grease pH/ & Total Phosphate Coliforms CBOD Conductivity Metals BTEX: TPH: Requires (2 vials per both the oil Additional Bottles sample; NO and grease AIR IN and BTEX BOTTLES) bottles
STEP 2. PREPARATION BEFORE SAMPLING, PREPARE THE NECESSARY EQUIPMENT & CONTACTS: Label Bottles Label each bottle with: 1. Licence ‘#W2014L3 - 0002’ (Submission No.) 2. SNP # (Field Sample No.) 3. Date and Time 4. ‘ Behchoko – SNP’ (Sample Description)
STEP 2. PREPARATION BEFORE SAMPLING, MAKE SURE THAT YOU PREPARE THE NECESSARY EQUIPMENT AND CONTACTS: Transport Bottles 1. Sample the same day (e.g. the morning) that they will be shipped 2. Complete Laboratory Order Form (See Additional Attachments) 3. Arrange with Air Tindi for delivery of samples to Yellowknife 4.Arrange with Taiga Lab to pick up samples from Air Tindi 5. Samples should be submitted within 24 hours of sampling
STEP 3. SAMPLING PROCEDURE PART 1 1. Sample at the cleanest location first and as close to flight time as possible (e.g. late morning if early afternoon flight, etc.) 2. AT EACH SNP LOCATION: a) Wear gloves b) Ensure bottles are labeled before collecting samples c) Collect samples d) Place used bottles in cooler and keep unused bottles in separate bag e) Discard used gloves in cooler f) Use hand sanitizer wipes
STEP 3. SAMPLING PROCEDURE PART 3 FOR SAMPLING REQUIREMENTS: Rinse Bottles 3 times, shake with lid on top, and dump away from sampling area before taking actual sample pH/ TSS, filled to the top Conductivity Ammonia, Phosphate “ Fill, shake, and dump” x 3 BOD/ Mercury & CBOD Total Metals
STEP 3. SAMPLING PROCEDURE PART 4 FOR SAMPLING REQUIREMENTS: DO NOT rinse bottle before taking actual sample. PHENOL STERILE Instead, fill bottle to the top Phenols Faecal Coliforms and record the time of day the sample was taken TPH: Requires BTEX: both the oil (2 vials per and grease sample; NO and BTEX AIR IN bottles BOTTLES) Oil & Grease
