4 SECTION 4: METHODOLOGY

Following is a brief description of the methodology adopted for water Sampling:

Onsite Monitoring Among the environmental parameters selected by the client;

 Temperature and pH of water samples

Temperature and pH of the water samples were monitored manually using thermometer and pH strips.

Water Sample Collection and Preservation

Water samples were collected from mutually agreed sampling points according to the SOPs based on American Public Health Association (APHA) for water sampling and analysis. Decontaminated glass bottles were used to collect the samples. To prevent air bubbles from being trapped in the bottles, they were filled to the brim. The lids of the sampling bottles were then replaced tightly. The bottles were then labeled and chain of custody forms were filled out and signed to keep track of the collected samples. Collected samples were than preserved in appropriate containers as per APHA Preservation Guidelines. A shipping container containing ice packs with maintained temperature was used for transporting the samples from sampling location to GCEC Lahore Branch for testing.

Sample Tagging and Chain of Custody

In GCEC Lahore Branch, samples and chain of custody form were handed over by Field Monitoring to the Coordination Staff for in-house tagging and logging according to the company’s policy and handed over to the Laboratory Staff for further physical, chemical and microbiological testing. A brief description of each sampling type and further proceedings are also discussed in following section.

Drinking Water Testing & Analysis Drinking water sample was tested and analyzed against selected physical, chemical and microbiological parameters using American Public Health Association’s (APHA) Standard Method. Analysis Methods and Results are presented in Annexure-1 & Annexure-2 respectively in this report.

Noise level monitoring results showed well compliance with the National Environmental Quality Standards limits set for the commercial areas during night time while day time average showed breaching. This day time breaching was mainly because of construction related movement.

The results of ambient air monitoring depict that all the tested parameters for air quality including particulate matter are within the limits prescribed by Environmental Protection Agency. Metrological data collected from site, depicts suitable environment for construction activities.

From the laboratory test results for ground water provided in the above report, it is evident that all of the tested parameters are falling within the permissible limits of NEQS. Hence it is obvious from the analysis results that the tested drinking water is suitable for human consumption.

4 SECTION 4: METHODOLOGY

Following is a brief description of the methodology adopted for water Sampling:

Onsite Monitoring Among the environmental parameters selected by the client;

 Temperature and pH of water samples

Temperature and pH of the water samples were monitored manually using thermometer and pH strips.

Water Sample Collection and Preservation

Water samples were collected from mutually agreed sampling points according to the SOPs based on American Public Health Association (APHA) for water sampling and analysis. Decontaminated glass bottles were used to collect the samples. To prevent air bubbles from being trapped in the bottles, they were filled to the brim. The lids of the sampling bottles were then replaced tightly. The bottles were then labeled and chain of custody forms were filled out and signed to keep track of the collected samples. Collected samples were than preserved in appropriate containers as per APHA Preservation Guidelines. A shipping container containing ice packs with maintained temperature was used for transporting the samples from sampling location to GCEC Lahore Branch for testing.

Sample Tagging and Chain of Custody

In GCEC Lahore Branch, samples and chain of custody form were handed over by Field Monitoring to the Coordination Staff for in-house tagging and logging according to the company’s policy and handed over to the Laboratory Staff for further physical, chemical and microbiological testing. A brief description of each sampling type and further proceedings are also discussed in following section.

Drinking Water Testing & Analysis Drinking water sample was tested and analyzed against selected physical, chemical and microbiological parameters using American Public Health Association’s (APHA) Standard Method. Analysis Methods and Results are presented in Annexure-1 & Annexure-2 respectively in this report.
