ANALYTICAL RESULTS OF MONITORING WELL WATER SAMPLES <br /> ` A total of four ground water samples were submitted to CalTech Environmental Laboratories <br /> (CTEL), a DHS-certified laboratory, for analysis. TPH-g was detected in the sample from MW-3, <br /> at a concentration of 200 µg/l. BTEX constituents were detected in the sample from MW-3 at <br /> concentrations of 4.1 µg/1 ethylbenzene and 26.2 µg/1 xylene. Fuel additive 1,2-DCA was detected <br /> in the sample from MW-4 at a concentration of 51 µg/l. <br /> No other analytes were detected at or above laboratory reporting limits in any ground water samples <br /> collected. <br /> i <br /> Analytical results of the ground water samples are summarized in Table 3. The laboratory reports <br /> (CTEL reference No. CT214-0609030) and chain-of-custody forms are presented in Appendix B. <br /> Documents confirming the upload of laboratory electronic deliverable format(EDF)files and depth <br /> to water measurements to Geotracker are included in Appendix C. <br /> 3.3. ANALYTICAL RESULTS OF DOMESTIC WATER WELL SAMPLES <br /> Grab water samples were not collected from off-site domestic water wells located at 451 and 452 <br /> North Lillian Avenue during this quarterly monitoring event. <br /> 4.0. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS <br /> The implications from the September 2006 ground water monitoring event are as follows: <br /> • Ground water flow direction at the site was inferred to be toward the southwest at a gradient <br /> of 0.006 ft/ft or less; previous ground water monitoring events at the site have determined <br /> the prevalent ground water flow direction to be towards the south. <br /> • Due to the low gradient at the site, slight variations in ground water measurements or <br /> changes of recharge/discharge of the local ground water could have modified ground water <br /> flow direction. <br /> r <br /> • The ground water elevation at the site was not within the screened intervals of wells MW-1, <br /> MW-2, MW-3 or MW-4;the wells were "flooded" by an average of 4.23 feet and may not <br /> be representative of first ground water conditions. <br /> • Average depth to ground water decreased by approximately 2.32 feet since the last quarterly <br /> monitoring event in June 2006; this decrease in the ground water table may have caused <br /> additional desorption of soil contaminants in the capillary zone,resulting in the detection of <br /> `„ Advanced GeoEnvironmentai,Inc. <br />
