| Mobilization Checklist | If Needed |
- Set up and test run Minivane
- Clean and lube all minivane extensions/ blades
- Set up, test, WD 40 on Torvane (geotech cruise only-- NO WD-40 for geochem!!)
- Set up the liner racks in lab with bungee cords to hold cores

- Locate and inventory the 3 inch liner cutter repair kit. Make sure you have enough blades, cutters and spare parts to finish the job.
---------Calculations-----------
- One roll tape per JPC section – full 64 ft core will have 21- 22 sections
- Piston cores will have 6 sections if full – plan on 2 rolls white and 2 rolls black per core
- Meter box core – estimate 39 inches to bot of box and another poss. 6 inches for scoop. ( do NOT mv into scoop) Readings are every four inches – need two sets of mv extensions and cones
- Regular box core is 20 inches deep- readings every 2 inches
