Description: The extent of contamination that occurs during soil sampling was examined for the split-barrel, hollow auger method used by the Environmental Hazards Assessment Program, California Department of Food and Agriculture, and for a manual bucket auger method. The study was conducted at Fresno, California on a sandy soil of the Hanford series. Contamination was measured by applying tracer to the surface of soil, immediately followed by sampling to a 10 foot depth in 6-inch segments. The tracer contained bromide which was not found in background samples. Thus, the presence of bromide in samples below the surface layer indicated contamination of samples. Three 6-inch samples were taken at one time with the split-barrel method whereas single 6-inch samples were obtained with the hand auger.
