Report on Additional Site Assessment and Fust Quarter 2000 Monitoring and Sampling Report 4 . 7-Eleven Inc Store#19976, 1399 N Main St Manteca,California February 4 2000 Three soil samples were selected for analysis of BTEX, MTBE, and TPH-G by EPA methods 8020/8015 ' modified, and for oxygenates MTBE, TBA, DIPE, ETRE, and TAME using EPA method 8260 34 Groundwater Monitoring Well Installation/Surveying I Groundwater monitoring well MW-6 was installed on December 22, 1999 (Figure 2) The groundwater monitoring well was constructed of 2-inch-diameter, Schedule 40 polyvinyl chloride casing with flush threads, and 0 020-Inch-slot well screen The well is screened from 10 feet to 30 feet below grade Sand occupies the annular space from the bottom to about two feet above the top of the well screen ' The sand pack is sealed with about 2 feet of bentonite pellets saturated in place with neat-cement grout to about 10 inches below grade The wellhead is protected at grade by a locking, water-tight well cap I and a traffic-rated street box (with watertight bolted lid) set in concrete Well construction details are on the drill log (Appendix A) ' The top of casing and rim of the new well box was surveyed by Morrow Surveying for horizontal position and elevation relative to mean sea level datum (Appendix B) '• 35 Groundwater Monitoring and Sampling Quarterly gauging information was collected by measuring depth to water in each well to the nearest 0 01 foot from the top of the well casing, using an interface probe Field data sheets are included in Appendix C Potentiometric surface maps for the quarter were prepared using the groundwater elevation data (Figures 2 and 3) (Table 2) ' Prior to groundwater purging, dissolved oxygen was measured in each well using a field instrument Dissolved oxygen data generally indicate mainly anearobic conditions, possibly due to intrinsic biodegradation Dissolved oxygen readings range between 6 3 milligrams per liter(mg/L) in well MW-4, located upgradient of the dissolved hydrocarbon plume, to between 0 5 and 1 9 mg/L in the other wells ' (Table 2) Subsequent to monitoring, approximately four well volumes of water were removed from each monitoring well to ensure stabilization of pH, electrical conductivity, and temperature The purge water was stored in DOT-approved 55-gallon drums The groundwater samples were collected using disposable bailers, then transferred to 40-milliliter glass vials filled to zero headspace and acidified to a pH of 2 The samples were sealed using Teflon®-septum caps, labeled, placed on ice in an insulated container, and I 19976 3SA
