The well's <br /> seal extends from the surface to 350 ft. bgs. The well location is presented in Attachment B. <br /> Characterization of the water quality was ,reported to be: <br /> Constituent Units Concentration <br /> Total Hardness (as CaCO3) meq 447 <br /> Calcium mg 97.9 <br /> Magnesium mo/1 49.1 <br /> Sodium mel 175 <br /> Potassium mg/1 7.3 <br /> Total Cations mg/1 16.72 <br /> Total Alkalinity (as CaCO3) m2'1 157 <br /> Hydroxide Alkalinity (as CaCO3) mg/l 0 <br /> Carbonate Alkalinity(as CaCO3) mgq 0 <br /> Bicarbonate Alkalinity (as CaCO3) meq 157 <br /> Sulfate mgq 408 <br /> Chloride mgq 187 <br /> Nitrate mg/1 21.7 <br /> Fluoride m8/1 0.12 <br /> Total Anions mg/1 17.26 <br /> pH pH units 7.6 <br /> Specific Conductance umhos/cm 1580 <br /> Total Dissolved Solids mall 1047 <br /> Copper ugq <50 <br /> Iron ug/1 <100 <br /> Manganese uJl <10 <br /> Zinc ug/1 <50 <br /> Note: <br /> Data from Nolte Associates, "Owens-Brockw•at•Glass Containers, Groundwater Monitoring <br /> Workplan, " 14 July 1994. <br /> y 10.
