10 January 2005 <br /> AGE-NC Project No 95-0184 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br />' 2 2 COLLECTION OF GROUND WATER SAMPLES <br /> Water samples were collected from wells MW-I through MW-4, MW-7, VW-3, and VW-4 with a <br />' hose bailer,while dedicated disposable plastic bailers were used to sample the remaining wells after <br /> allowing the wells to achieve a minimum 80%recovery of the pre-purge water volume Each water <br /> sample was transferred into laboratory-supplied,40-milliliter(ml) volatile organic analysis(VOA) <br /> vials containing 0 5 ml 18% hydrochlonc acid solution as a sample preservative, the sample from <br /> MW-4 was also transferred into a 1-liter amber bottle without preservative After collection, the <br /> samples were properly labeled,placed in a chilled container,and transported under chain of custody <br />' to Cal Tech Environmental Laboratories (CTEL), a California Department of Health Services <br /> (DHS)-certified analytical laboratory, for analysis The samples were analyzed for <br />' • Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline (TPH-g) in accordance with EPA <br /> Method 8015M, and <br />' • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and total xylenes <br /> (BTEX) and fuel oxygenates dl-isopropyl ether (DIPE), ethyl tertiary-butyl ether (ETBE), <br /> methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE), tertiary-amyl methyl ether (TAME), tertiary-butyl <br />' . alcohol(TBA), 1,2-dibromoethane(EDB),and 1,2-dichloroethane(1,2-DCA)in accordance <br /> with EPA Method 8260B Full Scan <br /> In addition, the ground water sample from well MW-4 was analyzed for total petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons quantified as diesel (TPH-d) in accordance with EPA Method 8015M <br /> y <br /> 3.0 FINDINGS <br /> Ground water elevation and flow direction were Inferred from field data Hydrocarbon impact to <br /> ground water was quantified by laboratory analysis of the ground water samples <br /> 1 <br /> 3 1 GROUND WATER GRADIENT AND FLOW DIRECTION <br /> The elevation of ground water In each well was calculated by subtracting the depth to ground water <br /> from the surveyed casing elevation (Table 1) Depths to ground water ranged from 36 96 feet to <br />' 37 76 feet below the tops of the well casings The average ground water elevation at the site was <br /> 24 68 feet below mean sea level (MSL), indicating an average,decrease of 1 78 feet below MSL <br /> between the second and third quarter monitoring events The ground water levels were as high as <br />' approximately 17 feet above the screened intervals in wells MW-1 through MW-4,MW-7,VW-213, <br /> and VW-5C <br /> 1 Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc <br /> 1 <br />
