The objective of this module is to provide an updated and overall introduction to the key elements of Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs), What is a Phase 1 Assessment? Why are Phase 1 assessments so important? How a good Phase 1 sets up a good Phase 2. How can a Conceptual Site Model add value to your understanding of a site?

By the end of this session you should gain an understanding of the importance of a desktop study, the range of information available and review methods, and how to apply this to develop an understanding of site history, potential contamination sources and presence of contamination at a site.

MODULE 2a: Phase 2 Sampling, Analysis and Quality Plan 

Introduction and Module Overview

QLD Auditor Guidelines Section 3.15: The contaminated land investigation document must demonstrate that the investigation components of an assessment of site contamination listed in Section 1 of Schedule B2 of the contaminated land NEPM have been conducted for every stage of investigation. The components include a conceptual site model, data quality objectives, a sampling strategy, and a sampling and analysis quality plan. Those components should be updated as the investigations acquire better information about the site.

By the end of the session you will:

1.     Understand the importance of the systematic planning process in the collection of environmental data

2.     Understand why data collected must be representative for site assessment decisions

3.     Understand the process for development of Data Quality Objectives (DQOs), identification of Data Gaps and design of Sampling Analysis and Quality Plans (SAQPs)

4.     Have the tools and resources to use these design tools for your SAQPs and to assess third-party SAQPs

Facilitator: Luke Amies: Epic Environmental Pty Ltd. Associate Environmental Scientist.
