Soil and Groundwater Investigation Report and October 2005 <br /> Second Quarter 2005 Monitoring and Sampling, US Can-Welty Road <br /> 10. GROUNDWATER MONITORING AND SAMPLING <br /> ` 10.1 HISTORICAL MONITORING AND SAMPLING DATA <br /> Historically,the site wells were monitored and sampled only occasionally during from October 1996 to <br /> August 2003. Depth to groundwater in the wells has ranged from 30.12 feet below the top of casing <br /> (btoc) in MW-2 in June 1999 to 34.81 feet btoc in MW-4 in May 2002. The approximate groundwater <br /> flow direction beneath the site varies from northeast to east. The site wells were sampled for TPHg, <br /> TPHd,TPH quantified as motor oil(TPHmo), BTEX,MTBE, PAHs,TCE, and cis-1,2-dichloroethene <br /> ` (cis-1,2-13CE). Petroleum constituents were never detected in wells MW-4 and WFSMW-l. No <br /> petroleum constituents, except TPHd, were ever detected in MW-3. TPHg and TPHd concentrations have <br /> been detected in wells MW-1 and MW-2. Furthermore, residual petroleum sheen had been noted in well <br /> MW-2 along with concentrations of TPHmo, BTEX,and PAHs. Historical soil and groundwater <br /> analytical results are presented in Appendix B. <br /> 10.2 MONITORING <br /> On April 21,2005, site wells MW-1 through MW-4 and off-site wells WFSMW-1 and MW-5 were <br /> monitored for depth to water(DTW) using a hydrocarbon/water interface probe. DTW ranged between <br /> ` 32.94 feet btoc in MW-5 and 36.60 feet bloc in MW-4. The approximate groundwater flow direction <br /> beneath the site is towards the northeast at a calculated gradient of 0.0008 feet/foot(ft/ft), consistent with <br /> historical flow directions and gradients. Separate-phase oil or hydrocarbon sheen was observed in MW-1 <br /> and MW-2. Wells MW-3 and MW-4 contained only limited quantities of water and were not sampled. <br /> A summary of DTW measurements and groundwater elevations is presented in Table 6. A potentiometric <br /> map showing groundwater elevation contours and flow direction across the site is presented on Figure 7. <br /> L. 10.3 SAMPLING <br /> Following DTW measurements, wells WFSMW-I and MW-5 were purged of four casing volumes of <br /> groundwater using a 2 inch-diameter disposable polyethylene bailer. During the purge process pH, <br /> ` specific conductance, and temperature water-quality parameters were recorded. After water-quality <br /> parameters stabilized(i.e., a minimum of three consecutive readings with values within 10 percent for <br /> each parameter), groundwater samples were collected into laboratory-provided bottle ware. The bottles <br /> were labeled, sealed, and placed immediately into an ice-cooled chest for delivery to under SAIC chain- <br /> of-custody protocol. <br /> Groundwater samples collected from wells WFSMW-I and MW-5 were analyzed for the following: <br /> L . TPHg: C6-C12 using N. CA LUFT Gasoline Method, <br /> • TPHd: C10-C25 using CALUFT-DRO/EPA Method 8015B Modified, <br /> �- • BTEX using EPA Method 8260B, and <br /> PAHs using EPA Method 8270C SIM. <br /> �. TPHd were detected in sample WFSMW-1 at 71 (Rg/L), phenanthrene was detected at 0.011 (µg/L), and <br /> naphthalene was detected at 0.025 (µg/L). Only naphthalene was detected at 0.012 (µg/L), in a sample <br /> from MW-5. Other petroleum constituents were not detected in any of the samples collected during the <br /> r April 21, 2005 quarterly monitoring and sampling event. <br /> Groundwater elevation data are presented in Table 6; analytical results are summarized in Table 7 and <br /> Table 8. A potentiometric elevation map is presented as Figure 7 and second quarter 2005 groundwater <br /> concentration map is presented as Figure 8.
