Three techniques arepresented: (1) sampling at discrete depths, (2) sampling over a small screened interval, or (3) sampling using permanent vapormonitoring wells with one or more screened intervals. For sampling at a

49、 given depth, options include (i) a short stainless steel probeinstalled in a small diameter hole drilled through building slab, (ii) disposable drive tips and post-run tubing (PRT), or (iii)installation of sampling points using tubing placed into a borehole and sealed in place with clay or other packing material.
