Monitoring Points <br />Lysimeter Type Location <br />VZ-1 Background Undeveloped area near G-1 <br />VZ-2 Detection SW perimeter Module 1, <br />NW perimeter Module 3 <br />VZ-3 Detection NW perimeter Module 1 <br />VZ-4 Detection Northern perimeter, Module 1 <br />VZ-6, 7 Detection Under Module 4 (western half) <br />VZ- 8 Detection Under Module 4 (eastern half) <br />__________________________________ <br />1. Lysimeters installed in shallow soil beneath lined excavation slopes. <br /> <br />Lysimeter monitoring locations shall also include future lysimeters installed to <br />monitor future expansion modules per WDR Construction Specification D.5.c. <br />Pore liquid monitoring shall also include any lysimeters or other monitoring <br />devices beneath leachate collection sumps. <br /> <br />b. Monitoring Parameters & Schedule <br />The pore liquid monitoring shall be conducted monthly. Any liquid recovered <br />shall be analyzed in accordance with the parameters in Section F.3.c, except <br />that volume of liquid recovered shall be recorded in lieu of elevation. In the <br />event that a release is tentatively indicated, the Discharger shall proceed with <br />confirmation sampling under WDR Monitoring Specification E.27, and follow <br />the Response to Release requirements of the WDRs and SPRR, as indicated. <br />The Discharger shall also consider whether the detection of liquid in the <br />lysimeter constitutes significant physical evidence of a release under WDR <br />Monitoring Specification E.30. <br /> <br />F. GROUNDWATER MONITORING <br />1. Elevation Monitoring (Section 20415(e)(13)) <br />The groundwater surface elevation (in feet and hundredths, MSL) in all wells and <br />piezometers shall be measured on a quarterly basis. Groundwater elevations <br />taken prior to purging the well and sampling for Monitoring Parameters may be <br />used to fulfill this requirement. Groundwater elevations for all monitoring wells for <br />a given groundwater body shall be measured within a period of time short enough <br />to avoid temporal variations in groundwater flow which could preclude accurate <br />determination of groundwater gradient and direction. The results of groundwater <br />elevation monitoring shall be displayed on a water table contour map and/or <br />groundwater flow net for the site and included in each monitoring report. The <br />Discharger shall use the groundwater elevation monitoring data to estimate the <br />following, as feasible:
