Report:Groundwater-quality Monitoring—March 29-31, 2006, 7500 West Eleventh Street, Tracy, CA Page 11 �--. 2.2.1 Disposal of Pure Water As noted above, purge water extracted from the monitoring wells was discharged periodically into in a 1,100-gallon storage tank located on the Navarra Site. For economy and efficiency, water will be held in that tank until it is full. It will then be pumped into a vacuum truck and transported to a recycling facility, where the petroleum hydrocarbons will be recycled into beneficial use before the cleaned water is discharged. 2.3 Recovery of Groundwater Samples from Monitoring Wells After purging, samples were recovered using disposable bailers. Water brought to the surface in the bailers was decanted via discharge spigot valves placed in the bottom of each bailer so as to completely fill clean glassware supplied by the laboratory containing, r where applicable, pre-dispensed preservatives. The sample vials were then tightly closed, labeled for identification, entered into chain-of-custody control and packed on chemical ice for transport, within 24 hours, to Severn Trent Laboratories' (STL) laboratory in Pleasanton, California for analysis. 2.4 Analyses of Groundwater Samples Y P Each groundwater sample recovered was analyzed at the laboratory for the following suite of analytes. r-.
