A Chain of Custody will be completed for all samples collected and tracked to ensure sample integrity. t ers 12DCA & TB TPH-G Detection Limits: 8020 8260 EDB 8260 8015m Water(µg/L) 0.3 5 20 2.3 Monitoring Well Construction As an option, we propose to install a deep, discretely screened monitoring well into this borehole. The depth of the screened interval and exact construction of the well would be determined in the field after the geology has been investigated and in consultation with Mr. Jeff Wong of San Joaquin County and Geological Technics personnel. A possible construction of this well is described below. However, it is recognized that information obtained duringdrilling may alter the construction. The deep monitoring well will be constructed using a pre-packed filter assembly in a 2.0- inch diameter PVC casing with flush threads and a screened section of 2.5-5 foot. Prior to installing the two to three foot weighted bentonite pellet seal, clean tap water is pumped down the casing and up the borehole to remove the drilling mud. The bentonite seal is then added and allowed to hydrate for a minimum of 'h hour before pumping the neat cement grout (augmented with< 4%bentonite) via a tremie tube. The final construction of the deeper well will be determined in the field depending on the geology encountered. See Figure 3 for a schematic of monitoring well construction. A table showing possible construction is included below. Wei o.

The well will be purged and groundwater samples collected no sooner than 48 hours after well development. All development and purge water will be containerized in 55-gallon DOT approved containers and stored on site until their disposition can be arranged. A licensed land surveyor will survey the top of casing measuring point for the well into the current elevation plane established for the site. 2.4 Groundwater Sampling Procedure The groundwater in the new wells will be sampled no sooner than 48 hours after well development and from there after on a quarterly basis. The following is a procedure for the sampling of groundwater from the well:
