--I I !. ! , " I • f DATE: 13 MARCH 2002 TO: MIKE MURPHY FROM: JIMPIERCEr SUBJECT: SANITARY SEWER SURCHARGE STATUS REPORT Sanitary sewage samples were obtained in June, July and August of 2001 from "temporary" sampling sites that were suggested by our Consultant, Freese & Nichols (F&N), and approved by Dallas Water Utilities (DWU). A summary of the sampling results follows: MONTH AVERAGE BOD AVERAGE SUSPENDED SOLIDS JUNE 235 mg/I 270mg/1 JULY 183 mg/I 223 mg/! AUGUST 245 mg/I 285 mg/! Average ofAverages 234mg/l 259 mg/! The "allowable" BOD and Suspended Solids value for DWU is 250 mg/I each. As a result of this sampling, only suspend solids cause a surcharge, and a small one at that (259 mg/I vs. 250 mg/I). Consequently, the past surcharge amounts were recalculated based on the three-month's sampling results. A summary sheet is attached which shows the recalculations. Addison had actually paid a total amount of surcharges for July 200 I through September of 2001 of $54,563.23. The sampling results, when applied, gave us a credit of $50,524.50 toward the payment of future surcharge amounts. Surcharge payments were suspended after September 2001, pending the results ofthe study. The Town has authorized F&N to design new sampling manholes that will be used for future samplings. This project is about 95% complete and the plans will be sent to DWU for approval in the near future. In the meantime, DWU has not billed us for any surcharges. It is our understanding that if they do bill us for surcharges, it would be at the much reduced rate that resulted from our sampling. Therefore, as a result of this process, and based on the last several months of surcharge fees, the Town stands to realize a cost savings of between $20,000 and $30,000 per month. /Q dallas water Uhlltles CIty of dallas November 7, 2001 To: All Wholesale Water Customers Due to an unforeseen and unavoidable conftict, we regret to inform you. that the Conservation Strategy meeting scheduled for November 12,2001, has had to be rescheduled.

Director ofPublic Works Town of Addison P.O. Box 9010 Addison, Texas 75001-9010 Dear Mr. Murphy: Thank you for your patience in awaiting our analysis of the wastewater sampling results for the City ofAddison for the months ofJune, July and August 200 I. You will recall from our previous correspondence and our meeting of September 17, 2001, that we had agreed to use the sampling results from the three temporary sampling sites for these months and apply them to Addison's surcharges from July 2000 forward if the results were lower than those which had been obtained through our sampling at the time. It was Addison's position that certain characteristics of the permanent sampling sites were leading to artiiicially high BOD and!orTSS results. We also agreed that Addison could hold in abeyance the payments for the surcharges from October 2000 forward until the analysis of the three months mentioned above was completed. My staff and I have have now spent considerable time analyzing the data and dehberating as to the most equitable method for resolving this matter. The TSS and BOD results for June were 270 rngll and 235 rng!1 respectively and July were 223 and 183 mg!l respectively. In accordance with your request, we discarded the results for the August 2001 sampling for August 7,8 and 9 at the Keller Springs site. The results for these days were discarded because your staff felt that the sampling tube was not in the correct position and thus obtaining inaccurate results. After discarding the results for these three days, the TSS for Addison for the month ofAugust was 285 mg!l, which results in a surcharge; BOD results for the month were 245 mgll, below the threshold for a surcharge. A detailed report of the TSS sampling results for each day and site is enclosed, both with and without the three days results mentioned above. Averaging the TSS and BOD findings for the months ofJune, July and August 2001 results in a BOD of 234 mg!! and TSS of 259 mg!I. Thus BOD results will not cause a surcharge, however TSS will. We have applied the TSS result of259 rug!1 (or the actual result if it was lower) to those months which were disputed (July through October and December 2000 and February through August Our Vision: To be an efficient provider of superior water and wastewater service and a leoder in the water industry. wholesale Services. 1500 Morillo, Room AAN Dellas, Texas 75201 Telephone: 12141670-5888. Fex: (214)670-3154 Michael E. Murphy, P.E. October 8, 2001 Page 2 of3 2001). The amounts due for the TSS surcharge are as follows: July 2000 $ 353.19 August 2000 $ 344.58 September 2000 $ 345.86 October 2000 $ 381.08 December 2000 $ 399.82 February 2001 $ 413.60 March 2001 $ 403.28 April 2001 $ 302.30 May 2001 $ 379.64 June 2001 $ 316.96 August 2001 $ 398.42 TOTAL $4,038.73 A summary sheet listing these amounts and comparing them to the previous surchaxge amounts is enclosed. Addison has paid the previously calculated surcharges (based on results at the permanent sampling sites) for the months of July-September 2000. These amounts were: July 2000 $33,291.19 August 2000 $10,173.02 September 2000 $11,099.02 TOTAL $54,563.23 This total will be applied toward the surcharges listed above resulting in a credit of$50,524.50. This credit will be applied to future wastewater treatment or surcharge bills. Because of the surcharge for the month of August, in accordance with the Wastewater Treatment contract between the cities ofDallas and Addison, sampling will continue until the results find two consecutive months without a surcharge. Sampling will then be performed on a semi-annual basis unless sampling results lead to a surcharge, in which case sampling will be performed monthly. It is our understanding that Addison wishes future sampling be performed at the temporary sites used during June-August 2001 until new permanent sites can be built. While we have no objection to accommodating Addison and sampling at these sites, the nature of our sampling equipment will not allow us to sample at the temporary Branch and Keller Springs sites. We will be able to use the temporary Academy site. Michael E. Murphy, P.E. October 8,2001 Page 30f3 During our meeting on September 19, you indicated that new permanent sampling sites would be built at Addison's expense near the temporary sites. These new sites would then be used for regular sampling. If it is not Addison's intention to construct these new sites, please let us know. Otherwise we will look forward to receiving the plans to review. Ifyou would like to discuss any ofthese items further, please call me at 214-670-5887.

Box 9010 Addison, Texas 75001-9010 Dear Mr. Murphy: I am writing to you in response to your letter of March 29, 200'1. Piease excuse this tardy reply; your letter was misrouted to the City's lockbox and delayed in reaching me. The purpose of this letter is to address the issues regarding Addison's wastewater surcharges and our efforts to reach an agreement for dealing with Addison's outstanding surcharge bills. In response to your proposal, the City of Dallas will agree to the following: 1. The Town of Addison may temporarily relocate its wastewater sampling sites to those locations shown on the map provided by Addison. Addison will construct the concrete sample pads around the manholes at the new sites so that the security boxes can be bolted in place. Addison will construct or acquire the security boxes and place them at the new sites. Construction of sample pads and security boxes will be inspected by and their use subject to approval by DWU. Plans for both the pads and boxes are enclosed. Sampling from the temporary sites will be for three consecutive months. 2. The Town of Addison has paid the wastewater surcharges for the months of July 2000 ($33,291.19). August 2000 ($10,173.02), and September 2000 ($11,099.02). Payment by Addison for surcharge bills for the months beginning in October 2000 may be withheld until the issue of disputed surcharges is resolved. However, any surcharges due in accordance with the outcome of the temporary sampling and this agreement must be paid by Addison before September 30, 2001. 3. Three months of sample history at the temporary sites will be gathered and compared against the disputed surCharge months of July, August, September, October and December 2000. If the sampling results indicate a strength of sewage below 250 mg/l for both TSS and BOD in each of the three months of sampling at the temporary sites, the wastewater surcharge bills for the months of July 2000 forward will be rescinded. Should the results from three months of sampling from the proposed temporary sample sites generally be similar to the prior results from the disputed surcharges, then the full amounts from the months beginning October 2000 will immediately be due from Addison. However, should the results from three Our Vi,ion: To be an 􀁥􀁦􀁾􀁣􀁩􀁥􀁮􀁴􀀠proviaer of ,uperior water and wastewater service and a leader in the water industry, Wholesale Servkes. 1500 Marillol Room 4AN Dalb., Texas 75201 Telephone: 1214)670-5888' Fax: {2141670·3154 months of sampling from the temporary sample sites generally be less than the prior results from the disputed surcharges (but still above 250 mgtl for TSS or BOD), the bills will be adjusted in accordance with the lower sampling results and applied to the disputed surcharges; payment will then immediately be due from Addison. 4. Sampling at the temporary sites will be conducted by City of pallas Water Utilities personnel in accordance with our usual standards. Addison may split samples or take its own samples at these sites. If Addison chooses to take samples from the temporary sites, sampling and laboratory procedures performed by Addison or its consultants must conform with City of Dallas Water Utilities standards. 5. The decision whether Addison will fund and build new sampling sites or continue to use the existing sites will be deferred until the results are obtained from the temporary sites. If you agree to these terms, please provide us with a written confirmation so stating. If you do not agree to any portion of them, please let me know so that we can discuss the matter. We appreciate your continued efforts to arrive at an agreement and look forward to your reply. Sincerely, 􀀩􀀨􀁾􀁾􀁾􀀠 Randy Stalnaker, Manager Wholesale Services cc: Larry Patterson, P.E.

To reiterate our concerns, as a result of a preliminary study prepared by Freese and Nichols, we feel there is a possibility that the locations where samples are currently being taken are affecting the quality and accuracy of the representative system samples. To address this concern, the Town of Addison proposes the following: (I) The temporary relocation of sampling sites to those locations shown on the attached site map, subject to DWUs approval of said locations. If the locations shown do not meet with DWUs approval, mutually agreeable sites will be selected. DWU and the Town of Addison will also agree on the sampling method and configuration. The Town of Addison will contribute labor and materials to this effort if appropriate. (2) The Town of Addison will pay the following surcharge amounts; (a) July 2000 -$33,291 (b) August 2000 -$10,173 (c) September 2000 -$11,099 (3) If the study holds true and samples taken from the proposed sites result in lower concentrations ofBOD and TSS for two consecutive months, Dallas Water Utilities will: (a) refund all surcharge payments made through September 2000; and (b) cancel surcharge pay requests for October, November and December of2000. (4) The Town of Addison, at its own expense, will then proceed with construction of new "permanent" sampling locations (agreed to by all affected parties) for future sampling. Page 2 27 February 2001 2/8/01 Joint Meeting Agreement (5) If sampling continues to show concentrations of BOD and TSS above the 250mg/l threshold, the Town of Addison will forward any outstanding surcharge fees to Dallas Water Utilities and continue to determine the cause or source ofthe surcharge problem. If Dallas Water Utilities agrees to the terms stated herein, please return a signed copy of this letter at your earliest convenience. UNDERSTOOD ANDAGREED TO: 􀁾􀀮􀁾􀀠 Michael E.

ERMI is an environmel)lal chemistry laboratory. The results of nearly all the analyses we perform are used 10 satisfy some regulatory requirement Imposed by federal. state or local environmental agencies. Because of this, our results are sometimes scrutinized in regulatory proceedings or in courts-of-Iaw. Therefore, they must be appropriate for the purpose intended and defensible. To meet these criteria, samples must be handled and analyzed according to certain regulatory agency protocols, usually EPA, and complete records stored for easy retrieval. These records must demonstrate appropriate handling and analySiS protocols were used and substantiate the results obtained when they are questioned. Se very careful of customer ,ample,. Very often they are one-ot-a-klnd and cannot be replaced or can only be rep/aced at great expense. Also, some samples contain pollutants that produce obnoxious odors, unhealthful fumes, are corrosive or ignitable or have some other undesirable or dangerous property. Handle them with great carv and do not drop or break them. Sample log-in Is the initiation of the sample analysis process and is one 01 the more critical steps. DUring log-in. the chain-ot-custody tor the sample is signed officially receiving the sample into the laboratory, analysis parameters and methods 01 analysis are definitively determined and assigned to the sample. samples are checked to ensure they have been preseNed appropriately for Ihe desired parameters, a unique laboratory Identification number is assigned to the sample and the sample and list(s) of parameters to be analyzed are transferred to the laboratory for analysis. It is not at all unusual lor customers no! to know exaclly what they want or need to analyze from a particular sample, For example, a customer may need to determine If their waste is hazardous but not know this requires tests for reactivity, corrosivity. ignitabillty and to)(icity analysis using TCLP methodology or the various analyses making up these lesting procedures. However, with our experience and Knowledge of environmental regulations. we are usually successful in helping customers make Ihese type of determinations. This Is part 01 the standard seNic!) we offer. FEB-19-2001 15:29 FNI DALLAS P.1S Effective Date: May 30, 1996 Subject Method: £AMI Approved By QAM: (J;LC sample Log-/n Page: 20f18 Approved By LM: Revision: 6+96 Almost all environmental chemistry parameters are very lime sensitive (must be analyzed within a specified holding time or period from the time Of sample collection). As well. they require certain preservation techniques unique to Ihe sample matrix (water, SOil. sludge, biological tissue ele.) being tested to stabilize the paramelar(s) of interest and to keep them from degrading. It Is critical that samples be preserved In Ihe appropriate manner and they be analyzed wilhin the appropriate holding period specified by the EPA or regulatory agency requiring the analysiS. Results of analyses from samples not preserved in the appropriate manner andlor not analyzed within stated holding times are not acceptable to satisfy regulatory requirements. A good practice In an environmental chemistlY laboratolY. and one required by EPA, is "blind sample analysis." Blind sample analysis is the assigning of a unique identification number to a sample and oross-referencing this number to the customer. In this way. Ihe sample is tracked throughout the laboratory and analyzed without analysts knowing who the customer is or what sample location il came from. In this way. biases in the analyses associated with this knowledge are averted. Log·in is comprised of the following tasks: Officially accepting the sample for the laboratolY by signing the chain-ot-custOdy, initiating a Fieid Data Form and documenting the date and time this was done, as appropriate, on each or the forms. Also, at the time 01 sample receipt, part of the login process is determining the customers tumaround time expectations and desires and ensuring these can be accomplished for the submitted samples. it the customer is new to fRMI. determining a method of payment tor the first sample submission and providing a credit application to them if they will be repeat customers is also considered a part of the the log-in process. Determining the parameters of analysis, analysis methods and detection limits required tor each sample based on the specific environmental regulationIs) being addressed. Determining and documenting on the Sample Preservation Form whether each sample has been correctly preserved for the type of analyses requested and Ihe matrix of the sample and arrived In the proper sampling container. Assigning a unique laboratory 5ample identification number to each sample and cross referencing this number to the customer, sample location, date and time 01 sample collection. etc. FEB-19-2001 15:30 FNI DALLAS P.15 EffectIVe Date: May30, 1996 SubJect Method; ElMI Approved By GAM: Prte Sample Log-In Page: 30f18 Approved By LM: Revision: 6+96 Preparing laboratory work orders to advise the laboratory of the analyses required on each sample and to provide a vehicle tor Ihe laboralolY 10 transmit the analysis (esults to the Customer Service area for report preparation.

Greal care must be taken at this time, however, to ensure that samples are not contaminated or cross contaminated with each other by introducing utenslls or media into the sample when preservation levels are checked. You musl be assured thai anything (pH paper) introduced into the sample container is analytically clean or contamination may occur. If you have any doubt whatsoever, clean the item appropriately before introducing II. II. The quantities of the parametel'l> analyzed for in the laboratory are extr&mely small and any contamination of the sample with other sample materials such as soil. sludge. sample water, industrial chemicals, etc. could alter the analysis results. The following should be avoided due to potential contamination: Nail polish remover near samples. Do nol spray cleaning agents or disinfectants in the area of open samples. Do nol physically touch samples (I.e. Na analysis). 3.0 APPARATUS Apparatus required for sample log-in includes computer, protective gloves, safely glasses, laboratory coat, pH paper, Sharpie mari7.5.

NOTE: If during filtration of this initial volutee'the filtration rate drops rapidly. or if filtration time exceeds 5 to 10 minutes, the following scheme is recommended: Use an unweigbed glass fiber filter ofchoice a.ffu:ed· in the filter assembly. Add a known volume of sample to the filter funnel and record the time elapsed after selected volumes bave passed through the filter. Twenty-five ml increments for timing sre suggested. Continue to record the time and volume increments until fitration rate drops rapidly. Add additional sample ifthe filter funnel volume is inadequate to reacb a teduced ISte.

The results of nearly all the analyses we perform are used to satisfy some regulatory requirement imposed by federal, state or local environmental agencies. Because of this, our results are sometimes scrutinized in regulatory proceedings or in courts-of-Iaw. Therefore, they must be appropriate for the purpose intended and defensible. To meet these criteria, samples must be handled and analyzed according to certain regulatory agency protocols, usually EPA, and complete records stored for easy retrieval. These records must demonstrate appropriate handling and analysiS protocols were used and substantiate the results obtained when they are questioned. Se very careful of customer samples. Very often they are one-of-a-kind and cannot be replaced or can only be replaced at great expense. Also, some samples contain pollutants that produce obnoxious odors, unhealthful fumes, are corrosive or ignitable or have some other undesirable or dangerous property. Handle them with great care and do not drop or break them. Sample log-in is the initiation of the sample analysis process and is one of the more critical steps. During log-in. the chain-of-custody for the sample is signed officially receiving the sample into the laboratory, analysis parameters and methods of analysis are definitively determined and aSSigned to the sample, samples are checked to ensure they have been preserved appropriately for Ihe desired parameters, a unique laboratory identification number is assigned to the sample and the sample and list(s) of parameters to be analyzed are transferred to the laboratory for analysis. It is not at all unusual for customers not to know exactly what they want or need to analyze from a particular sample. For example, a customer may need to determine if their waste is hazardous but not know this requires tests for reactivity. corrosivity, 19nitabifity and toxidty analySis using TCLP methodology or the various analyses making up these testing procedures. However, with our experience and knowledge of environmental regulations, we are usually successful in helping customers make these type of determinations. This Is part of the standard service we offer. , , Feb 19 01 10:29a R . GROUP, BUS.

As well, they require certain preservation techniques unique to the sample matrix (water, soil, sludge, biological tissue etc.) being tested to stabilize the parameter(s) of interest and to keep them from degrading. It is critical that samples be preserved in the appropriate manner and they be analyzed within the appropriate holding period specified by the EPA or regulatory agency requiring the analysis. Results of. analyses from samples not preserved in the appropriate manner andlor not analyzed wIthin stated holdIng times are not acceptable to satisfy regulatory requirements. A good practice in an environmental chemistry laboratory, and one required by EPA, EPA, is "blind sample analysis." Blind sample analysis is the assigning of a unique identification number to a sample and cross-referencing this number to the customer. In this way, the sample is tracked throughout the laboratory and analyzed without analysts knowing who the customer is or what sample location it came from. In this way, biases in the analyses aSSOCiated with this knowledge are averted. Log-in is comprised of the following tasks: Officially accepting the sample for Ihe laboratory by signing the chain-ot·custody, initiating a Reid Data Form and documenting the date and time this was done, as appropriate, on each of the forms. Also, at the time of sample receipt. part of the login process is determining the customers turnaround time expectations and desires and ensuring these can be accomplished for the submitted samples. If the customer is new to ERMI, determining a method of payment for the first sample submission and providing a credit application to them if they will be repeat customers Is Is also considered a part of the log-in process. Determining the parameters of analySiS, analysis methods and detection limits required for each sample based on the specific environmental regulation(s)' being addressed.

Great care must be taken at this time, however, to ensure that samples are not contaminated or cross contaminated with each other by introducing utensils or media into the sample when preservation levels are checked. You must be assured that anything (pH paper) introduced into the sample container is analytically clean or contamination may occur. If you have any doubt whatsoever, clean the item appropriately before introducing It. The quantities of the parameters analyzed for in the laboratory are extremely small and any contamination of the sample with other sample materials such as soil, sludge, sample water. industrial chemicals, etc. could alter the analysis results. The following should be avoided due to potential contamination: Nail polish remover near samples. Do not spray cleaning agents or disinfectants in the area of open samples. Do not physically touch samples (I.e. Na analysis). 3.0 APPARATUS Apparatus required for sample log-in includes computer, protective gloves, safety glasses, laboratory coat, pH paper, Sharpie markers, sample labels, color coded labels, ink pens, sample cart and the various forms and logs used to document information as described more fully in the following sections. 4.0 REAGENTS No reagents are used In the log-in process.

Some of these are: customer walk-ins, ovemight services such as Airborne, Federal Express and Lone Star, Greyhound bus, U.S. Postal Service, United Parcel Service and Roadway Package Service, trucking companies, air parcel or freight and ERMI personnel. Samples delivered by ERMI personnel include those picked up at the Greyhound bus station and airports, from customer locations and those collected by Field Services employees themselves. All samples must be kept in the container (cooler, box, etc.) they were delivered in until it is time to check the sample containers and preservation levels. Do not attempt to fog-ln more than one submission ofsamples at a time. This will ensure customer samples are not mixed up during the log-in process. When multiple submissions are received from separate customers, it is necessary to prioritize the log-in of the samples based on holding times, turnaround time requested and condition of samples upon arrival. Deficiencies must be noted on the Sample Preservation Documentation sheet for inclusion on the customer report (Le. received out of holding time or not enough sample). Samples are received into the laboratory by signing the chain-of-custody for the submission, completing the Field Receiving Information on a Field Data Form (Appendix A) and documenting the date and time this was done at the appropriate locations on the two (2) forms. If no chain-at-custody was provided with the submission, initiate one using ERMl's Chain-of-Custody form (Appendix A). Note that for samples brought to the laboratory by ERMJ personnel, the Field Receiving Information provides for documentation of transfer of the samples from Field Services personnel or other ERMI personnel to the laboratory. As well as documenting the transfer of samples, the Field Data Form serves as a point of attachment for all laboratory information generated for the submission keeping it in one location for report preparation and later, filing in the customer's project folder. Review the chain-of-custody to ensure all information is legible and complete. A telephone number must be provided for a contact to answer questions about the samples should they develop, an address to send the completed report and invoice to, a fax number if the report. and invoice are to be faxed, a purchase order number for billing purposes, descriptive information on the project and samples the customer F.eb 19 01 10,30a R' 'GROUP BUS.

All of this Information Is essential and must be documented upon receipt of the samples. If this information is not on the chain-of-custody or in the customer's project file, it must be gleaned from the individual delivering the samples or from the provided or known customer contact. All customer contacts must be documented on a Communications Form (Appendix A), a copy of this form placed in the customer file and copies routed to all Individuals with a need to know. Copies must be delivered promptly so any necessary actions can be rapidly taken. Know and be sure of the customers' TAT expectation, be sure we can meet them and contact the customer for Instructions ifwe cannot/If the customer is new to ERMI, method of payment for the first submission of samples must be determined. New customers andlor customers' with questionable credit ratings may pay for the services provided in advance when they submit the samples, upon receipt of the final report or according to fRMl's payment terms upon credit approval. The time to complete the credit approval process after receiving the completed application depends upon how quickly the listed credit references respond to standard information inquiries. Also, if the customer is new to fRMI, document how they found out about us, which laboratory they were using previously and why they changed on a communications form and route it to the President and the Business Development Manager. If they were referred by an existing customer, we will want to contact that customer and thank them. If Ihey were drawn to ERMJ though our Business Development efforts, we would like to know by which method to enable us to evaluate our marketing and sales techniques. 5.2 Parameters ofAnalySis fRMl's and most customers' chain-of-custody forms provide space for recording what parameters are to be analyzed from each sample submitted. It is incumbent upon us to ensure that we understand what parameters the customer wants to analyze from each sample, what detection limits are required and, il necessary, determine which methods of analysis are appropriate to meet these needs. Often, customers have their own acronyms or jargon for certain analyses which may be different from ours or those generally accepted. As well, the customer may know they need to analyze the sample for a particular parameter or ,suite of parameters but not know what method of analysis should be used or the detection limit(s) required to feb 19 01 10:30a 􀁒􀁊􀁾􀀠 GROUP, BUS.

If any of this infonnation is unclear from the documentation provided with the samples or project, make no assumptions, contact one of fRMI's technical personnel and/or the customer for further guidance before proceeding with the log-in processl Be absolutely sure of what the customer wants and document this on a Communications Form if it was necessary to contact them! If verbal instructions regarding the sample are given, note them on the Chain-of-Custody and initial and date this information and indicate who gave these instructions. One of the more frequent detenninations required during the log-in process is what method of analysis must be used to meet the customers needs. Most customers are not environmental chemists and they depend upon us to make or help them make make the right decision. The single factor most influencing this decision is what regulation(s) the customer is addressing with the analyses from the samples, RCRA or solid waste, Clean Water Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and/or Clean Air Act regulations. Each regulation calls for analyses using methodologies specific to that regulation. For example, metals in a water sample are analyzed by method 200.7 to address Clean Water Act regulations and by method 6010 to address RCRA or solid waste regulations. Within these categorias, there is often a choice 01 methods that can be applied depending upon the detection limit requirements necessary to satisfy the regulation. Lead for example can be analyzed by method 200.7, ICP, yielding a detection limit of 0,01 mg/I to satisfy Clean Water Act requirements but must be analyzed by fumace using method 239.2 to obtain a detection limit of 0.001 to satisfy Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. For purposes of the Clean Air Act, lead must be analyzed by flame AA using method 239.1 which has a detection limit of 0.1 mg/1. As you can see, it is Imperative to know the regulation being addressed to make the proper detennination of which method(s) is appropriate for the analysiS. Making this more difficult is the fact that customers do not always know what regulation is being addressed. They may only know they are trying to detennine if the waste is hazardous, whether they are out of compliance on their wastewater discharge or whether their water is safe to drink. This type of infonnation is a definitive clue as to what regulation the customer is addressing and, therefore, what methods of analysis and detection limit requirements must be met to satisfy their needs. Knowledge of the various environmental regulations, the regulatory limits imposed by them and the sample analysis capabilities 01 the laboratory is very important. Infonnalion on the methods of analysis and detection limits for each parameter analyzed by ERMI is presented in Appendix B. The infonnation Is grouped by labOratory of analysis (Metal, Wet, GC and GC/MS) and regulation. . , . 􀁾􀁥􀁢􀀠 19 01 10:31a 􀁒􀀧􀁾􀀠GROUP, BUS.

Place the samples on a work surface where only samples from the submission being logged-in are present. Arrange the samples as ordered on the chain-ot·custody and verify the label against the information on the chain-of-custody. A sample can be comprised of one or a number of different containers with each containing a subsample or sample aliquot (a representative portion of sample). This is necessary because each parameter or group of parameters must be placed into a container of the appropriate type, preserved in a specified manner, capped with a specific type of lid and analyzed within a specified holding period. Holding period Is the time from sample collection until initiation of the analysis, completion of the analysis, or completion of a specific part of the analysis as specified in the pertinent regulation. Generally speaking, all chemical parameters begin to degrade or change form from the time they are collected. Some parameters can be stabilized for a period of time using various chemical agents and/or cooling but this only retards the degradation or change. It does not stop it. There is still a finite period during which time the analyses are considered acceptable. It goes without saying then, the sooner a sample is analyzed the better. If samples are not analyzed within the appropriate holding period. the results of these analyses are not acceptable for satisfying regulatory requirements. Knowing the parameters to be analyzed, check each sample or sample aliquot 10 ensure they are in the correct type of container and are preserved in the manner specified by the regulation. Document your findings for each sample on a Sample Preservation Documentation form (Appendix A). Information on the correct sample container and lids, preservatives and holding times are presented in Appendix C. Almost all parameters require cooling the sample to 4·C as one or part of the appropriate method of preservation. A few exceptions to this are samples for analysis of metals, chloride, hardness and fluoride or solid waste samples for all . , analyses where the physical or chemical character of the sample is changed upon cooling.

It is assumed the sample(s) was appropriately cooled if it arrived at the laboratory on ice. This is because some samples collected a short distance from the laboratory may not be chilled to 4"C upon arrival at the laboratory but they were placed on ice immediately after collection and cooled such that this criteria probably would have been met if left long enough. If a sample is not cooled upon arrival and it should have been, make a notation at the bottom of the Sample Preservation Form to this effect. Check the pH of each sample or sample aliquot (exclusive of VOA vials, samples known or suspected to require special handling, samples for solid waste or air analysis, soil and sludge, or samples customers have requested not be opened until time of analysis) using pH indicator strips to assess whether the pH level is Indicative of a correctly preserved sample or a sample that should not have been preserved (BOD, TSS, Chloride, etc.). It Is important to remove the lid from only one sample container at a time to ensure the lids are not mIxed up and put on the wrong container. This could cross contaminate the sample(s) and invalidate or result in erroneous results. Document these findings in the pH column on the Sample Preservation Documentation form for each parameter or parameter group. It is not necessary to determine the exact pH, only whether the sample was below or above the necessary pH. Record the sample number(s) (Section 5.4) on the form and check it thoroughly for completeness. Immediately sign the form and record the current date and time. 5.4 Sample Identification Number A unique sample identification number is assigned to each sample. This sample number is a consecutive number maintained in the sample log (Appendix A). Each sample is treated individually to prevent labeling the wrong sample wiih the identifying number.' Select the first sample on the submission chain·ol·custody. Select the next unused consecutive number from the Sample Log and assign the number to this sample. This is done by recording the customer name, project number, date received. sample description and due date lor the sample in the Log on the line or row corresponding to the sample number and by writing the number beside the description for the sample on the submission chain-ol·custody. Also included on each line in the Log is a break out of parameters by laboratory and a notation of how the sample arrived at the laboratory. . , Feb lS 01 10:32a 􀁒􀁾􀁾􀀠GROUP, BUS.

Be very c;areful not to deface any information on the customer label during this process. The sample number should also be written on the lid of each container using a Sharpie marker or a plain white label. Containers are often cold and wet making them difficult to write on or label. Wiping the container with a paper towel just prior to labeling often helps. If the container has moisture on the outside when you are trying to write on it, the Sharpie marker will absorb moisture and not write or will write improperly. Touch the end of the marker 10 a dry paper towel several times making ink blots on the towel. This will retum the flow of ink and the pen should work properly again. Make sure the sample Identification number is clearly legible and labels are tightly affixed. This is the only means of identifying the sample after log-in. There are three (3) special cases that affect how a sample is labeled. These are when a sample has a RUSH TAT, when a sample has a short holding time (48 hours or less). andlor when a sample is to be analyzed for what we refer to as "low level" parameters. Sample analyses requiring RUSH tumaround times and those that have short holding times are labeled with a fluorescent red or rediarange label so they are easily identified as samples with quick TATs. Samples requiring low level analyses are labeled with a fluorescent yellow label for this same purpose. A sample can have three different labels: a customer label, a red RUSH or short holding time label and a yellow label for low level analysis. If a sample has a special hazard associated with it, contact the Safety Officer for proper handling and special log-in procedures. After completing one sample proceed to the next following the same procedures until all samples in the submission have been logged-in. In the case where limited sample volume is encountered and the sample must be subsampled for various parameters or laboratories, contact the inorganic or organic team leader or the QA Manager for assistance. In the case where an unpreserved sample is received and the sample must be analyzed for parameters thai must be preserved in different ways, contact the applicable inorganic or organic team leader or the QA Manager. 5.5 Work Order Preparation Feb 19 01 10,32a R... • , GROUP, BUS.

One work order is prepared for each individual sample for each laboratory (Metals, Wet, GC and GCIMS laboratories) that will participate in performing the analyses required. Customer and location specific work orders are already prepared for current customers and for all the typical analyses performed. Only work orders signed by the President should be used. Custom work orders are used for new customers requiring special combinations of analyses or current customers requiring other than their or our standard analyses. Appendix A contains an example of the Analytical Services Work Order form. Work orderS are completed by recording the sample identification number and due date or to be completed by date for the sample at the top of the form. The standard TAT for most parameters is four (4) working days. Exceptions to this are samples for 􀁂􀁏􀁾􀀮􀀠TCLPs, seven (7) day leachate and BTEXtTPH analyses. The TAT for BODs and TCLPs is five (5) working days. for the seven (7) day leachate test about 12 to 15 working days (check with the inorganic supervisor to determine a reasonable due date upon receipt of these samples) and for BTEX/TPH 48 hours. All samples except BTEXITPH and RUSH samples are counted as being received the next day if they are received after 2:00 PM in the aftemoon by ERMJ personnel. If the samples arrive after 2:00 PM at the laboratory but were received earlier in the day by Field Services or other ERMI personnel. the TAT begins from the earlier lime.

Note: The work order Is the vehicle used by the laboratories to report the results of their analyses and other Information to Customer Service for report preparation. Certain circumstances and parameters dictate some modification or exceptions to the above procedures. When samples with RUSH TATs are to be analyzed, a bright orange work order is used. If the work order is multi-page, it is only necessary that the top page of the work order be prepared on orange paper. The remaining pages can be the normal white paper. Again, the purpose of the colored work order is to alert individuals in the laboratories that these analyses are RUSH and must be processed quickly. When samples for pH, BOD, nitrate, hexavalent chromium and others with short holding times. or TPH are logged in, a special label is affixed to the work order to provide a place for the analyst(s) to sign for the sample in recognition the sample was brought into the laboratory and delivered to him or her. Because semivolatile organics, pesticides and herbicides are prepared in one location and analyzed in another, a copy of the first page of all of these work orders is made. The Original goes to the preparation laboratory and the copy to the instrument laboratory. After the sample is prepped, the original work order and the sample are transferred by laboratory personnel to the instrument laboratory and the copy of the work order is replaced by the original and the copy discarded. .

Also at the end of each day, a count is made of incoming samples (excluding O.C. samples) for the day and the number written on a post-it note and given to the President. 5.6 Wastewater Work Orders Most monthly wastewater samples are composite samples collected over a 24-hour period. Specific parameters such as volatiles, cyanide and oil and grease must be collected as grab samples and are In-house before the composite portion of the sample. Field Service technicians collecting these samples will request sample identification numbers after the sampler Is set out if it contains grab sample parameters. If there are no grab samples, the Field Service Technicians will request a sample identification number after the complete sample is in-house. Occasionally. due to sampler malfunctions or other problems, a sample is It0t collected and the sampler must be reset. By waiting until the sample is in-house, voided sample numbers can be avoided.

This means the grab portion of the sample will be in-house before the remainder of the sample. When the complete sample is In-house, the Field Service technicians will retrieve these work orders and place them into the appropriate laboratory work order books or. for the Wet Lab, in the appropriate hanging files on their wall. At this time they complete the Field Data Sheet and relinquish it to Log-In personnel. Log-In personnel then signs and puts the date and time on the Field Data Sheet. Check to make sure the Field Service technicians have written the due date in yellow hiliter in the upper right hand corner of the Field Data Sheet. Also check to be sure a pH was collected and it is within regulatory limits --generally between 6 and 10.5 but varies from city to city. If the pH is not within these limits, a second pH must be collected. In the Sample Log Book, the samples are considered in-house the next working day following collection. Example: If a sampler is set out on Monday to collect a composite sample but is not in-house until late Tuesday afternoon, it would be considered In-house on Wednesday. This allows the laboratory personnel adequate time to complete the requested analysis. The Field Data Sheets contain the information used to program the automated samplers. The Model 800 Sigmas have a feature that allows information to be downloaded via a data device and printed out by the Field Service technicians. This information is then attached to the Field Data Sheets and contains valuable quality control information such as missed samples, date and time the samples were collected, etc. Discrepancies or any problems noted with sample collection should be reported to the Customer Customer Services Manager. 5.7 Sample Distribution After completing all work orders, the samples are transferred to a cart and the aliquots distributed, as appropriate, to the various laboratories. Each laboratory has it own storage refrigerator for samples. The shelves of each refrigerator are labeled with the parameters to be stored on them. The exceptions to this are the Metals laboratory and samples for BOD analysiS. liquid samples for metal analysis do not require refrigeration so they are stored on a shelf for this purpose in the digestion or sample preparation area within the Metals laboratory. Soil alJd sludge for metals analysis, however, do require refrigeration. These are maintained In the refrigerator in the volatile organic instrument laboratory.

BOD samples have a red labeled area in the refrigerator for after hour placement of samples. When delivering samples to the laboratOries. deliver those requiring volatile organic analyses to this laboratory first. Never take volatile organic samples into the Organic Preparation or Wet laboratories. These laboratories use methylene chloride, chloroform, acetone and other volatile chemicals tor sample extraction and glassware decontamination which can easily infiltrate and contaminate samples even with the lids tightly secured. These solvents are some of the parameters analyzed for in the volatile laboratory. Upon delivery of the samples to each laboratory, put the work orders for each laboratory in their work order book. The exception to this procedure is the Wet Laboratory where work orders are placed in the appropriate section in the hanging files just inside the Wei laboratory on the east side. Wet Laboratory personnel will place the work orders in their book. Arrange the work orders in the books such thaI the largest sample identification number is the first page of the book when opened. The exception to this Is volatile organics where new work orders are placed last in the work order book at the analyst request. 6.0 CALCULATIONS No specific calculations are required for the sample log-in phase of sample processing. Remember, TATs are based on working days. not calendar days. 7.0 SOIL AND SLUDGE MODIFICATlONS No modifications other than those listed above are required to log-in soils and sludges, No preservative other than cool to 4°C is required for these sample matrices. Soils and sludges for metals analysis are stored in the volatile refrigerator and should be put there first before delivering other samples on the cart to other laboratories. 8.0 QUALITY CONTROL All log-in documentation is checked for clarity and completeness and verified by a second individual knowledgeable and experienced in the log-in process. , S.O SAFETY AND HYGIENE Feb 19 01 10:35a RJN GROUP, BUS.

Safety and proper hygiene must be foremost in the minds of all sample log-in personnel when handling,samples or working in the log-in area. All samples have the potential to contain some sort of contaminant at high concentrations or at levels deleterious to your health and/or physical well being. In addition, sonie samples are preserved and are therefore acidic or basic. It is our business to measure the concentrations or characteristics of certain of these contaminants. As well as the contaminants we normally think of, some samples may also contain bacteria, viruses or other disease causing agents along with the chemical contaminants we may suspect. For these reasons, It is imperative log-in personnel wear the supplied proper personal protection eQuipment. be knowledgeable with regard to the safe handling of samples. know how to handle the safety equipment in their area and use it properly and maintain good personal hygiene practices. Be careful with the pH paper after checking the sample and dispose of it properly. Proper safety attire for log-in personnel is safety glasses, latex or vinyl gloves and a laboratory coat. These items must be wom when in the log-in area. Bare or exposed skin should be minimized when working with samples. Cloth, tennis or open style shoes should be avoided. No eating or drinking is allowed in the log-in area and hand to mouth, eye, face or bare skin should be avoided when working with samples or when samples are in the log·in area. When log-in is completed, immediately wash your hands and any bodily area that was splashed or came into contact with sample using the antibacterial soap provided in the rest rooms and at other locations throughout the laboratory. Advise the Safety Officer of any rash or irritation or other adverse effect from coming into contact with a sample. Wash your laboratory coat frequently, at least once a week. The safety of samples is a concem whenever they are handled. Always work wlth one sample at a time and make sure the lid is on tight and your hold is secure. Always work with samples over a work surface and make a conscious effort to minimize the distance the sample is held above the surface to decrease the potential for breakage should the sample slip and fall. Store all samples securely when they are transported on the laboratory cart and pay particular attention when crossing the bumps caused by the union of carpet and tile between the laboratory and offices. In no circumstance Is a sample to be carried by hand to the laboratories, they should always 􀁢􀁾􀀠in a crate or on the laboratory cart for secondary spill containment. p.18 -. 􀀧􀀭􀀧􀀭􀀭􀁾􀁾􀀠 􀀭􀀭􀀮􀀭􀀭􀀮􀁾􀀠􀁾􀀭 􀀭􀀭􀁾􀀭..􀁾􀀭􀁾􀀮􀀭􀁾􀁾􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀭􀁾􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀭􀀧􀀠 ,Feb 19 01 10:35a 􀁒􀁾􀁍􀀠GROUP, BUS.

The work surfaces of the log-in area must be kept free of spilled sample(s}, paper and other trash. The counters and the sample cart should be wiped down periodicaUy to remove or reduce the contamination on surfaces. The bottom tray of the cart should be kept orderly. Transfer bubble pack. netting, etc. to the Field Office area on a routine basis. Sample bottle cabinets must be kept stocked with bottles and supplies of VOA vials, labels. chain-of-custody forms and labeled soil jars maintained to give to customers when needed without them having to wait while they are retrieved from the Field Office or warehouse. All empty coolers must be retumed to the warehouse for cleaning and shipment back to the customer, if applicable. As incoming coolers are emptied, those needing to be retumed should have a note attached instructing Field Service personnel where the cooler is to be retumed and how many and what kind of bottles need to be retumed. Each cooler belonging to ERMI must be logged in the Shipping Log If it is incoming or if it is given to a customer or leaves the premises for any reason.

However, Standard Methods details all the requirements and procedures for this parameter and the following procedure is based on these criteria. . Biochemical Oxygen Demand (800) is an empirical measurement of the oxygen requirements of municipal and industrial wastewaters and sewage. The test results are used to calculate the effect of waste discharges on the oxygen resources of the receiving waters. The BOD test is of limited value in measuring the actual oxygen demand in the environment because temperature change, biological population, water movement, sunlight, oxygen concentration and other environmental factors cannot be reproduced accurately in a laboratory. BOD is performed by incubating a sealed sample for the standard five day period at 20·C in the dark, then determining the change in dissolved oxygen content. 2.0 INTERFERENCES Residual Chlorine can have a toxic effect on the bacteria used in the BOD analysis. To eliminate small amounts of residual chlorine, allow the sample to stand for one to two hours at room temperature. Cold samples may be supersaturated with oxygen. if a DO reading of over 9.15 at 20·C or 8.78 at 22·C is obtained, remove excess oxygen by agitating the sample before beginning. To reduce the effect of phenols, heavy metals or cyanide, and other potentially toxic agents, dilute the sample with nutrient water and use the most dilute result which has valid QC values. '.

Note: Because the BOD standard prepared by Hach contains 300 mg/L each of glucose and glutamic acid, the BOD value determined must be divided by two. 6.2.2 Calculate the 800 of the standards the same way as it is calculated for the samples. The average of all valid data points must fall within the allowable limits (198±30.5 mgIL) for the batch to pass the QC requirements. 6.2.3 If the standard does not fall within these limits then all samples associated with this batch need to be re-sampled and re-analyzed. Continue taking 800 readings on the samples in case a sample can not be resubmitted and the data must be submitted with a qualification.

Sampling : Composite See Section 6.2 Container : 500ml Plastic/Glass Preservation : Cool 4°C Holding Time : 7 Days 1.0 GENERAL DISCUSSION This method is based on EPA Method 160.2 and is applicable to total suspended solids in drinking, surface, and saline waters, domestic and industrial wastes. The procedure involves taking a well·mixed sample and filtering it through a dried, pre-weighed, standard glass fiber filter and the residue retained on the filter is dried to a constant weight The increase In weight of the fiiter represents the total suspended solids (T55). Samples must be collected in clean plastic or glass bottles. They must be analyzed as soon as possible after collection, but can be stored up to seven days when cooled t04"C. 2.0 INTERFERENCES The filtration apparatus, filter material, pre-washing, post-washing and drying temperature are specified because these variables have been shown to affect the results. Samples high in Filterable Residue (dissolved solids), such as sanne waters, brines and some wastes, may be subject to positive interference. For samples high in dissolved soUds, thoroughly wash the filter to ensure removal of the dissolved material. Excessive residue on the filter may form a water entrapping crust, so limit the sample size to that yielding no more than 200mg of residue. Non-representative particulates such as leaves, sticks, fish and rocks may be removed before analysis. Feb 19 01 10:47a RJN.GROUP, BUS.

Matrix Spike Duplicate Samples are used to document the precision of the method. The standard deviation and coefficient of variation are calculated using the spike and the spike duplicate data. 8.1.6 Laboratory Control Sample This sample Is a standard from a different source than the calibration standards which must be taken through the complete analytical procedure. It is used to check the accuracy of the standardization. 8.2 Quality Control Limits 8efore any data is submitted, it must meet the following ac Criteria. A Non-Conformance form must be completed for any batches not passing one or more of the ac Criteria, the problem{s) must be resolved, and the batch reanalyzed to achieve quality results. If insufficient sample exists for reanalysis, the customer needs to be contacted and either more sample obtained or approval given to report results outside fRMI ac Limits. Any results with ac outside ERMI ac Limits must be documented on the final report. 8.2.1 Recovery The reported recovery is the average recovery of the Matrix Spike and Matrix Spike Duplicate analyses. This value must not exceed 100±10% to pass fRMI ac requirements. The entire batch must be reanalysed if this value is exceeded. 8.2.2 Coefficient of Variation The coefficient of variation is calculated using the Matrix Spike and Matrix Spike Duplicate analyses. This value must not exceed 10% for the batch to pass ERMI ac requirements. 8.2.3 Laboratory Control Sample The recovery of this ac sample must not exceed 1 00±1 0% for the batch to pass fRMl ac requirements, 8.2.3 Absorbance Verification The absorbance of the 400ppm standard must be within 10% of the average of the last four 400ppm standards for it to pass this ERMI ac requirement.

Murphy, PE I Acting Director ofPublic Works Re: Proposal from Freese & Nichols fur Phase I Engineering Services related to the Sanitary Sewer System Environmental Investigation. Date: April 4, 2000 Attached is a proposal from Frcese & Nichols fur Engineering Services related to the Sanitary Sewer System Environmental Investigation. We are planning a three-phase approach to investigate the Town ofAddison's Sanitary Sewer System in an attempt to determine what is causing increasingly high BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) and TSS (Total Suspended Solids) readings. These are readings that indicate the pollutant strength ofthe Towns Sanitary Sewer Effluent. These indicators are then used to determine ifany surcharge fines are to be assessed to the Town of Addison by the City ofDallas. For the last several months we have seen an increase in surcharge fines from the City of Dallas go from $2000 -$3000 per month up to a high of $22,000, which over the last 12 months is averaging approximately $10,000 per month. Phase I would collect flow and sampling data from the City ofDallas for review purposes, instaIJ flow meter and sampling equipment immediately upstream ofthe Trinity Christian, Dallas Parkway, and Arapaho road metering fucilities. The flow monitoring and sampling would coincide with the City ofDallas sampling ofthe Town's discharge. The results would then be compared with City ofDallas sampling results. Phase 2 would be initiated ifthe Phase I results did not identifY the sources ofthe problem. Phase 2 would establish a sampling and flow monitoring plan for upstream ofthe meter stations in an attempt to isolate the sourees ofthe high BOD and TSS readings. A review of existing land use, industrial permit users and sources, along with manhole inspections would be included. Once the sources ofthe high readings are determined, and then a specific plan for mitigation will be developed as Phase 3 ofthe process. The proposed cost fur Phase I Engineering Services is $46,863 and will be accounted for in the Utilities Fund Account for Engineering Services 61-711-56570. Funds fur Phase 2 were approved in the 1999-2000 Budget in the amount of$131,OOO and funds for Phase 3, ifnecessary, will be requested in 2000-200 I Budget. Staffrecommends that the Council authorize the City manager to enter into a contract \vith Freese & Nichols for Phase I Engineering Services estimated at $46,863.
