1. Groundwater Quality– Refuelling areas;– Interceptors and sumps associated with any wash down areas ;and– Any areas highlighted as being of high groundwatervulnerability in Volume 2.Groundwater levels and quality will be analysed prior to constructioncommencing in order to establish a baseline measurement. Themonitoring program shall be developed in conjunction with DTAE.During construction of the wharf facility, further groundwater qualitymonitoring will be undertaken. Additional monitoring will occur if thereis reason to suspect contamination has occurred, e.g. in the event of asignificant spill.Reporting andReviewUpon completion of the construction phase, groundwater levels andquality will be analysed and compared to baseline levels.To ensure that the results of the monitoring are valid and defensible, aset of quality assurance and control procedures has been developedfor this investigation. The procedures are summarised below.Work will be carried out by a suitably qualified professional, inaccordance with industry-accepted standards.Field quality control procedures include rigorous sample collection,decontamination, handling and transfer protocols.Pre-cleaned, disposable sampling equipment will be used, to preventcross-contamination. Prior to installation, all non-disposable equipmentused for sampling will be decontaminated using industry acceptedprotocols outlined below:– Wash and/or scrub in potable water;– Rinse or scrub in phosphate-free detergent;– Rinse in potable water; and– Rinse twice in distilled water.Field quality assurance will comprise replication of field measurementsin accordance with the requirement of the Monitoring Program.The results of the laboratory quality control samples will be presentedwith the certified laboratory reports and included with any formalreporting as an appendix.Draft Integrated Impact SatementBell Bay Pulp MillVolume 4: Page 3-63
