Evaluation of Groundwater Gradient The elevation of the top of each well casing was measured by RESNA using well MW-4 as the datum point The U S G S Quadrangle Map, Stockton West, California 1976, was used to evaluate the elevation of the ground surface around well MW-4 The tops of the monitoring and recovery wells were surveyed relative to mean sea level on September 9, 1992. The elevation of the well casing and the depth to groundwater measured in each monitoring well were combined to evaluate the relative elevation of the groundwater surface in each well and the slope of the groundwater surface across the site 380091-10W4 Sit%doc
