Ir � Pombo Ranch Property Quarterly Groundwater Sampling Report July 2003 Page: 2 was to the North Northeast with a flat gradient (N18E/0.0046), similar to the groundwater flow observed in the April 2003 event. Wellhead elevations, depth to water measurements, and groundwater elevations are shown below. Groundwater elevations and flow direction are located on figure 2.

The dissolved oxygen was measured during this monitoring event in the field (and noted on the field logs), instead of in the laboratory, using a new down hole meter that provides a more accurate (and often lower) representation of the oxygen concentrations in each well. Field measurements of dissolved oxygen will be compared in the next quarterly report. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Shallow ground water flow was to the North Northeast with flat gradient, similar to groundwater flow in previous events. Gasoline petroleum hydrocarbons, volatile aromatic hydrocarbons, and fuel oxygenates were not detected by the analytical laboratory in water -- - ` - samples collected from the monitoring wells: Quarterly monitoring will continue to confirm the breakdown of the remaining contaminants.
