i After decontamination, the core barrel was driven to 16 feet, and a core taken from 16to 18'. It consisted of tan clay grading to brown to grey clay, with some areas a grey-green color. It was very firm, and difficultly plastic, with occasional inclusions of black carbonaceous (?) material. There was a very faint odor detected at IT, but it dissipated almost immediately upon exposure to the air. A portion of the core at 17 feet was preserved for analysis. Equipment was cleaned, the core barrel was driven to 22 feet, and a core taken from 22' to 24'. The core consisted of tan to brown, silty, sandy, clay with some dark grey areas. It was difficultly friable, and portions separated into 114" to 3116" "biscuits." The clay was dry, but the outside of the core barrel was wet, indicating a water contact at about 22 feet. There was a faint petroleum odor noted in portions of the core, but no visible discoloration. After cleaning equipment, a core was taken from 24' to 26'. It consisted of grey to dark brown water sand, very fine to fine-grained; soft, slightly plastic. No odor was noted, and there was no sample preserved. • A hydropunch tool was run to bottom & opened. Small diameter plastic tubing was run and retrieved sufficient water to fill four VOA's with muddy water. There was no odor or sheen noted in the preserved samples. After 5 minutes, about 114" of very fine silt had settled to the bottom. The VOA's were labeled and preserved for analysis. Refer to PLATE IV for more details. Drilling equipment was decontaminated, and the probe truck repositioned on GP- 3, as shown on PLATE II. The first core was taken at 1250 hours, and consisted of brown to dark brown clay, damp, slightly friable, with occassional inclusions of sand grains and black organic material. There was no odor or discoloration. A portion of the core at 7 feet was preserved; however, the County EHD did not require analysis. After cleaning equipment, tools were advanced to 10', and a core taken from 10' to 12'. It consisted of dark brown to dark grey clay, damp, sticky, and slightly plastic. There was a definite petroleum odor and visible contamination in portions of the core. A portion at 11 feet was preserved for analysis. Equipment was decontaminated, and a core was taken from 16' to 18' in the same manner described earlier. It consisted of light grey to dark grey silty clay, dry, friable, with a mottled appearance due to color changes. A strong petroleum odor and visible discoloration was noted throughout most of the core. A portion of the core at 17 feet was preserved for analysis. 4
