<br /> In June and July 2000, WHF supervised the advancement of ten soil borings at the site and
<br /> completed five of the borings as groundwater monitoring wells MW5, MW6, MW8, MW9, and
<br /> MW10, and three of the borings as vapor extraction wells VE1, VE2, and VE3 Groundwater
<br /> monitoring well MW7 was replaced by vapor extraction well VE3 Soil samples collected from
<br /> borings 13101, B 103, B104, VE3, and VE 1 contained detectable concentrations of TPHg and
<br /> BTEX
<br /> SAMPLING ACTIVITIES
<br /> On November 20, 2003, groundwater samples were collected by ATC personnel from monitoring
<br /> wells MW1, MW2, MW3, MW4, MW5, MW6, MW8, MW9, and the on-site domestic well
<br /> Well MW 10 has an obstruction at approximately -20 bsg and was not sampled The locations of
<br /> the monitoring wells are shown on Figure 2 Prior to collection of groundwater samples, the
<br /> depth to water, pH, electrical conductivity, and temperature were measured in the monitoring
<br /> wells and recorded A minimum of three well casing volumes was purged from each well prior
<br /> to sampling The wells were allowed to recover and samples were collected from each well
<br /> using dedicated disposable bailers After groundwater samples were collected, dissolved oxygen
<br /> was measured in each well
<br /> The groundwater samples collected from each well were submitted to Argon Laboratories Inc
<br /> (ELAP Cert No 2359), a California-certified analytical laboratory, for chemical analysis of
<br /> TPHg and total petroleum hydrocarbons as diesel (TPHd) utilizing EPA method 8015, BTEX
<br /> utilizing EPA method 8020, and MTBE, tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA), di-isopropyl ether (DIPS),
<br /> ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE), tertiary amyl methyl ether (TAME), 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-
<br /> DCA), and 1,2 dibromoethane (EDB) utilizing EPA method 8260 Groundwater well purge and
<br /> sample logs are contained in Attachment 1
<br /> GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTION
<br /> Water level measurements were collected from wells MW1, MW2, MW3, MW4, MW5, MW6,
<br /> MWS, and MW9 on November 20, 2003 On November 20, 2003, water levels ranged from
<br /> 70 92 to 75 01 feet below the tops of the well casing elevations This represents a decrease in
<br /> groundwater table elevation by an average of 141 feet from the August 15, 2003 sampling event
<br /> The data from MW6 was not used for flow directions because it is screened in a deeper interval
<br /> On August 16, 2003, the casing elevations were re-surveyed by Condor Earth Technologies
<br /> under the supervision of a California licensed land surveyor The new elevations (Top of Casing,
<br /> TOC Elevation) are noted in Table 1 The water level data were used to develop the groundwater
<br /> elevation contour map (Figure 3) Assuming horizontal isotropic conditions, groundwater flow
<br /> in the uppermost aquifer beneath the site on November 20, 2003 varied across the site, but in
<br /> general, the flow was southeasterly The average hydraulic gradient was calculated to be 0 04 ft/ft
<br /> or approximately 211 ft/mile A summary of groundwater monitoring data is presented in Table
