' coarse grained brown sand with thin lenses of small gravel. A moderate hydrocarbon odor was observed at approximately 25 feet. The hydrocarbon odors were very strong at 30 feet and strong at 35 feet. Water was first observed at 33 feet. From 33 feet to approximately 40 feet, the well bottom, the soil was dark grey sand with clay lenses grading to moist dark grey clay with a slight hydrocarbon odor. The boring was terminated at 40 feet to avoid violating the clay layer. Twenty feet of 0. 02 inch screened 2-inch-diameter, Schedule 40 PVC ' casing was placed at the bottom of well MW-2 . The remainder of the well was constructed using regular 2-inch-diameter, Schedule 40 PVC casing. Twenty two feet of #3 Lonestar Sand was used for the ' filter pack with a two foot Bentonite seal above the sand. The remaining portion of the well was filled with cement grout and a traffic rated moister resistant manhole placed slightly above grade to avoid surface water contamination. A locking cap with lock was placed in the casing to avoid inadvertent surface contamination to groundwater. For Boring MW-3 , the first foot was sand and gravel fill with approximately 4 inches of asphalt, then moist brown clayey silt to approximately 25 feet with some caliche at approximately 20 feet. ' From approximately 25 to 33 feet moist graded light brown sand to fine grained brown sand with very slight hydrocarbon odors observed. From approximately 33 to 41 feet dark grey clay moist and plastic with some silty clay and sand at the bottom of the well. Very slight odors with some organic odors were observed at the lower end of this boring. The boring was terminated at 41 feet. rTwenty feet of 0. 02 inch screened 2-inch-diameter, Schedule 40 PVC casing was placed at the bottom of well MW-3 .

Boring Placement ' Boring B-1, the first foot was sand and gravel fill with approximately 4 .inches of asphalt, then moist dark brown clay with organic matter for the next 4 feet. From approximately 7 to 12 ' feet light brown silty clay and clayey sand to fine grained brown sand. At approximately 12 feet to 18 feet, moist brown clayey silt with caliche veins was encountered. The next several feet changed ' from moist fine to light brown sandy silt with clay being moist at approximately 25 feet no hydrocarbon odor was observed to this 6
