These methods will ensure the proper identification of <br /> groundwater quality beneath the site. <br /> Groundwater Monitoring Well Installation. Three groundwater <br /> monitoring wells will be installed in the boreholes shown on <br /> Figure 1. <br /> The wells will be completed with 2-inch--diameter polyvinyl <br /> chloride (PVC) flush-threaded casing and will be screened with <br /> 0.020-inch slotted casing from 20 feet below the groundwater surface <br /> to 10 feet above the groundwater surface. Blank casing will extend <br /> from the top of the perforated section to ground surface. The actual <br /> depths of the boreholes and screened intervals of the wells will <br /> depend on conditions encountered during drilling. <br /> The wells will be packed with No. 20/40 sand from the bottom of <br /> the screen to approximately 2 feet above the top of the screen. A <br /> - 2-foot seal of bentonite pellets will be placed on the top of the <br /> sand pack. The wells will be grouted with bentonite-cement slurry or <br /> neat cement from the top of the bentonite seal to the surface. The <br /> wells will be completed below grade, fitted with top and bottom PVC <br /> (" caps, and have locking covers installed. Typical well construction <br /> s E is illustrated on Figure 2. <br /> The monitoring wells willnot be completed opposite significant <br /> clay zones nor will monitoring wells penetrate significant clay zones <br /> that might allow for downward migration of contamination into. lower <br /> ,)l aquifers. <br /> Well Development and Groundwater Samples. Each well installed <br /> will tie developed with an air-lift pump until clean, sediment-free <br /> water is produced from the well. The length of development time <br /> will vary depending upon field conditions. Water produced during <br /> development and sampling will be contained on site. ARCO will be <br /> responsible for the disposal of water and product collected. Prior <br /> j to and following development, the thickness of free product, if any, <br /> r will be gauged. <br /> Following proper development of each well, a nitrogen--driven <br /> bladder pump or stainless steel bailer will be used to evacuate an <br /> additional amount of water before samples are taken. The amount of <br /> y � !� water evacuated will be defined by the stabilizationof pH and <br /> electrcial conductivity readings for three consecutive measurements <br /> taken 5 minutes apart.
