Gealagual TecknccV 14C Page 3 <br /> Groundwater Monitoung Report <br /> Project No 724 2 <br /> January 17,2003 <br /> Figure 2 shows the location of the well pairs used for calculating vertical groundwater <br />' gradient in this report MW-4/MW-104, MW-6/MW-106, and MW-7/MW-107 Tables 1 & <br /> 2 show a Summary of Water Level and Gradients Slope and Bearing and Table 3 shows the <br /> calculated vertical gradients The information used in the calculations is shown below <br />' Verticala l <br /> rmu <br /> radient calculation f are as follows <br /> gformulas <br />' • vertical correction for gradient [(gw gradient slope) x (distance) = vertical correction] <br /> • vertical head [(head of deep well) - (head of shallow + correction) = vertical head] <br /> • vertical gradient [(vertical head) / (vertical distance) = vertical gradient] <br />' For the September 2002 event, the vertical gradient for the MW-4/MW-104 pair was <br /> negative (downward) In well pairs MW-6/MW-106 and MW-7/MW-107 the vertical <br /> gradient was positive (upward) These data are consistent with previous events The <br /> vertical distance to the deep well screen in the MW-4/MW-104 well pair is double the <br /> distance of the other two well pairs <br />' 1 2 Groundwater Sampling Procedure <br /> p 1; <br /> MOn September 12, 2002, Del-Tech Geotechnical Support personnel arrived on-site, opened <br /> the wells and measured the depth to water with an electrically actuated sounding tape The <br />' water level reading was recorded to an accuracy of 0 01 foot In wells where free-floating <br /> product is suspected, a clear disposable bailer is used to gauge the interface No free- <br /> floating product was observed during this monitoring event <br />' Stagnant water in the well casing was purged using a dedicated Wattera pump as recorded <br /> in the field logs (Appendix C) The rate of well purging was monitored The wells were <br />' purged of at least three casing volumes until the groundwater parameters (temperature, <br /> conductivity, and pH) had stabilized (Appendix C) This indicated that water representative <br /> of actual aquifer conditions was entering the well Groundwater parameter stabilization was <br />' characterized by three successive readings within 10% <br /> Before a sample was collected, the water level was allowed to recharge to at least 80% of <br />' the initial level All water removed from the monitoring well and not used as a sample was <br /> placed in a properly labeled 55-gallon DOT (Department of Transportation 17-H) approved <br /> container and is temporarily stored on-site <br /> A dedicated Wattera pump was used to collect each sample <br /> Care was exercised while collecting samples to prevent agitation of the water contained in <br /> the bailer Water samples were transferred in a manner that minimizes sample aeration <br /> during transfer of the sample into 40-m1 VOA vials preserved with hydrochloric acid All <br />
