Method

Surface water samples are collected at 14 GPS fixed locations in and around Project GreenShores. Surface water grab samples are collected following DEP-SOP-001/1 FS 2100 Surface Water Sampling. The sampling technique laid out in FS 2110 is used consisting of a combination of direct grab samples and sampling using an intermediate container due to preservation in two sample bottles. A total of 4 samples is collected per site.
