I" KLEINFE LDER <br /> the north rim). The depth of water is then subtracted from the elevation of the top of the well <br /> casing to provide a groundwater elevation for each monitoring well location. <br /> B-4 GROUNDWATER MONITORING <br /> B-4.1 Water Level Measurements <br /> Water, level measurements are made in the wells prior to purging and sampling the wells. <br /> Measurement protocol is as follows: <br /> 1. Prior to obtaining water level measurements, the monitoring wells would be opened and <br /> allowed to equilibrate for a period of approximately %2 hour. <br /> 2. The water level probe is decontaminated in a trisodium phosphate or non-phosphate <br /> detergent wash,followed by a distilled water rinse, prior to.use in each well. <br /> 3. Water level measurements are made using a conductivity-based water-level meter. <br /> Depth-to-water is generally measured from a surveyed mark on the north rim of the PVC <br /> well casing. <br /> The water level measurements are converted to elevations using the surveyed casing elevations. <br /> B-4.2 Groundwater Sampline <br /> Groundwater samples are collected from the monitoring wells at the site. The sampling protocol <br /> for each well is as follows: <br /> 1. Down-well equipment (pumps, bailers, etc.) is decontaminated by steam cleaning, or by <br /> scrubbing in a trisodium-phosphate or non-phosphate detergent wash followed by a <br /> distilled water rinse, prior to use in each well. Bailer cord is replaced prior to use in each <br /> well. <br /> 2. The depth to groundwater is measured using a•conductivity-based water-level meter. <br /> 3. The volume of water in gallons standing in the well is calculated by subtracting the depth <br /> to groundwater measurement from the depth of the well and multiplying by the <br /> appropriate conversion factor(0.16 for 2-inch wells, and 0.65 for 4-inch wells). <br /> 02001PROP.ENV/ST04PI18/DH:ss Page B-6 <br /> Copyright 2004,Kleinfelder,Inc.
