r r ag e t o aw o MMount The contamination profile shown in ure 5 indicates to have been very small . Charts B and C above show that no contamination was found in ' the water itself. These tests were taken one month apart by Del Tech, after bailing the wells down Temperature, pH and conductivity were all measured as an indicator that ' formation water was being pulled into the well . Del Tech data sheets are appended. ' Water levels also were measured both times that the water was sampled, using an electric probe locater.

However, as noted above, a small amount of TPH--D was ' found in the soil sample from 77 ' to 78 1/2 ' in MW # 1 , probably reaching there by percolation in the vadose zone during a time of lower water elevation.

The contaminants found in MW # 1 soil samples are too deep to be excavated unless a very large area were to be ' excavated, with a ramp dug, permitting a back hoe to enter the excavation.
