• <br />• <br />Riverview Apartments Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan <br />4.2.2 pH Sampling <br />pH monitoring is required for "Significant concrete work" (i.e., greater than 1000 cubic yards <br />poured or recycled concrete over the life of the project). The use of engineered soils (soil <br />amendments including but not limited to Portland cement -treated base [CTB], cement kiln dust <br />[CKD] or fly ash) also requires pH monitoring. <br />For significant concrete work, pH sampling will start the first day concrete is poured and <br />continue until it is cured, typically three (3) weeks after the last pour. <br />For engineered soils, pH sampling begins when engineered soils are first exposed to <br />precipitation and continues until the area is fully stabilized. <br />If the measured pH is 8.5 or greater, the following measures will be taken: <br />1. Prevent high pH water from entering storm sewer systems or surface water. <br />2. Adjust or neutralize the high pH water to the range of 6.5 to 8.5 su using appropriate <br />technology such as carbon dioxide (CO2) sparging (liquid or dry ice). <br />3. Written approval will be obtained from Ecology prior to the use of chemical treatment <br />other than COZ sparging or dry ice. <br />Method for sampling pH: <br />Table 9 — pH Sampling Method <br />® <br />H meter <br />❑ <br />pH test kit <br />❑ <br />Wide range pH indicator paper <br />CPH Project No. 0024-17-037 <br />CP I H CONSULTANTS <br />August 28, 2018 <br />Page 26 <br />
