Quarterly Monitoring Report— First Quarter 2026 <br /> AMW-10 was erroneously reported as unable to be sampled due to needing repairs. The 2025 audit <br /> confirmed the well has been abandoned in place. <br /> For evaluation purposes, the groundwater monitoring wells at the Site have been divided into three groups based <br /> on the depth of the screened interval (shallow, intermediate, and deep). Shallow wells are screened <br /> predominantly at elevations greater than -50 feet relative to mean sea level (MSL). Intermediate wells are <br /> screened predominantly at elevations of-50 to-125 feet relative to MSL. Deep wells are screened predominantly <br /> at elevations below-125 feet relative to MSL. <br /> During the first quarter 2026 groundwater monitoring event, all the locations in the current groundwater monitoring <br /> network were sampled. <br /> Supplemental analyses are conducted every 5 years. The next 5-year analyses will be conducted in third quarter <br /> 2028 (MRP Table 4 [RWQCB 2024]). <br /> 2.1.2 Field Activities <br /> Quarterly sampling was conducted in accordance with the Sampling and Analysis Plan, as provided in <br /> Appendix A, and the MRP (Section B.1 and Tables 2 and 3; RWQCB 2024). Well monitoring was conducted by <br /> Del-Tech Geotechnical Support Services (Del-Tech), located in Oakdale, California. Del-Tech collected depth-to- <br /> water(DTW) measurements at all monitoring wells between January 27 and February 6, 2026, and collected <br /> groundwater samples between January 28 and February 10, 2026. <br /> DTW measurements were collected at each well before purging and sampling; field records are provided in <br /> Appendix B. The groundwater elevation data for the Site are summarized in Table 2, and a groundwater elevation <br /> contour map is provided as Figure 8. Groundwater in the vicinity of the Site generally flowed towards the <br /> northeast, with an average hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.002 foot per foot and an average flow rate of <br /> approximately 2.0 feet per day (730 feet per year) (MRP Table 5 [RWQCB 2024]). <br /> Following gauging activities, the wells were purged and groundwater samples were collected. The samples were <br /> submitted to Pace Analytical Environmental Services, located in Bakersfield, California, a state-certified <br /> laboratory. The first quarter 2026 samples were analyzed for routine physical parameters (i.e., turbidity, <br /> temperature, specific conductance, and pH) as stipulated in MRP Table 2 (RWQCB 2024) and constituent <br /> parameters as stipulated in MRP Table 3 (RWQCB 2024). <br /> Field data sheets are provided in Appendix B. Laboratory analytical reports and chains-of-custody documentation <br /> are provided in Appendix C. <br /> 2.1.3 Analytical Results <br /> Laboratory analytical results from the first quarter 2026 groundwater monitoring event are presented in Tables 3a <br /> through 3c, and Table 4. The volatile organic compound (VOC)data presented in the tables include results <br /> greater than the laboratory practical quantitation limit (PQL); estimated (J-qualified)VOC data between the PQL <br /> and the laboratory method detection limit(MDL) are also included to evaluate exceedances. Cumulative data for <br /> all groundwater monitoring points and constituents for the past year(first quarter 2025 through first quarter 2026) <br /> are included in Appendix D. <br /> www.arcadis.com <br /> Forward Landfill 1Q26 QMR 2 <br />
