I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> The probe tip is then lowered into the well and submerged In <br /> the groundwater. An oscillating(beeping)tone indicates the <br /> probe is in water. The probe is slowiy raised until either the <br /> oscillating tone ceases or becomes a steady tone. In ether <br /> case,this Is the depth-to-vrater(OTW)indication and the OTW <br /> measurement is made accordingly. The steady tone indicates <br /> floating liquid hydrocarbons(FLH). In this case,the probe is <br /> slowly raised until the steady tone ceases. This Is the depth-to- <br /> product(OTP)Indication and the OTP measurement is made <br /> accordingly. ' <br /> The process.ol lowering and raising the probe must be <br /> repeated several times to ensure accurate measurements. The <br /> OTW and DTP measurements are recorded on the liquid-level <br /> data sheet. When FLH are indicated by the probe's response, <br /> a product bailer is lowered partially through the FLH-water <br /> Interlace to confirm the FLH an the water surface and as <br /> further Indication of the FLH thickness,particularly in cases <br /> where the FLH layer is quite thin. This measurement Is <br /> recorded on the data sheet as'FLH thickness.* - <br /> In-order to avoid cress-contamination of wells during the liquid- <br /> level measurement process,wells are measured in the order of <br /> 'clean"to-dirty'(where such information is available). In <br /> addition,all measurement equipment is cleaned with solution <br /> and thoroughly rinsed with deicnized water before use,between <br /> measurements in respective wells,and at the completion of the <br /> day's use. <br />
