The top of each well will be secured to prevent unauthorized entry and incursion by surface <br /> waters. The two onsite wells will be completed with 6-inch diameter locking steel casing <br /> that extends approximately 2.5 feet above the ground surface. The wells in both El Dorado <br /> Street and Harding Way will be completed with water-tight, threaded traffic boxes that can <br /> only be opened with a special wrench. <br /> A tag indicating the well number, well type,depth, perforated interval and the diameters of <br /> the boring and casing will be placed in each well. The elevations of the ground surface and <br /> the top of casing will be surveyed for vertical location and tied to the previously installed <br /> wells. The depths to ground water will be gauged and the elevation of the top of ground <br /> water will be calculated in order to determine the direction of flow and establish a hydraulic <br /> gradient. <br /> 4.2 INSTALLATION OF VAPOR EXTRACTION WELLS <br /> Five vapor extraction wells (VW 1, VW2, VW3, VW4, and VWS, Figure 3) will be <br /> installed around and within the former tank field at former Chevron SS 9-1918. The vapor <br /> extraction wells will be installed for future hook-up to a vacuum and treatment system for <br /> inplace remediation of gasoline contaminated soil. The soil borings will be drilled in a <br /> manner similar to that for the monitoring wells except that the borings will be 6-inch in <br /> diameter. The borings will be terminated just above the water table, approximately 35 to 40 <br /> feet below ground surface. The wells will be completed as vapor extraction wells by <br /> installing 2-inch diameter,flush-threaded, schedule 40 PVC casing. Screen with a slot size <br /> of 0.010 inch will be installed from a depth of approximately 15 feet below ground surface <br /> approximately 35 below ground surface. The annular space around the casing will be <br /> packed with Lone Star number 3 sand. <br /> The five vapor extraction wells will be completed above ground in temporary, steel <br /> protective casing until being configured for hook-up to the VETS system. <br /> 4.3 SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS OF SOILS AND GROUND WATER <br /> Undisturbed soil samples will be collected at each five feet of drilling depth with a modified <br /> California split spoon sampler lined with brass liners. The sampler and brass liners will be <br /> scrubbed with detergent and rinsed with tap water and then with deionized water before use <br /> at each sampling interval. The split spoon sampler is fitted with three brass liners. One <br /> soil filled brass liner will be immediately lined with aluminum foil and capped with plastic <br /> 9 <br />
