1 <br /> Eckert Cold Storage Company <br /> 757 Moffat Blvd, Manteca, California <br /> ' Quarterly Groundwater Sampling Report <br /> October, 1998 <br /> ' Narrative <br /> On September 30, 1998, WII' Inc., conducted field measurements, well pumping and <br /> groundwater sampling on five (5) groundwater monitoring wells located at this site <br /> (Figure 1,2 and 3). <br /> Groundwater elevations were taken from six (6) wells prior to pumping (Table 1 & <br /> Appendix B). All monitoring wells were evacuated by means of a steam-cleaned, stainless <br /> ' steel bladder-type pump, except MW-2 and MW-7. During the three (3) volume pump <br /> down of each well, samples were collected to measure field pH, electrical conductivity and <br /> • temperature (Table 3 & Appendix B). Once stability was achieved, a minimum of three <br /> ' (3) well volumes were removed and samples were collected with disposable bailers. The <br /> samples were then labeled and placed in an ice chest cooled with Blue Ice®. <br /> ' The samples and trip blank were then logged on a Chain of Custody (Appendix A) and <br /> transported to the State-certified laboratory, California Laboratory Services, in Rancho <br /> Cordova, California. The analysis requested for the water samples was EPA method 8020 <br /> ' for BTX&E (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene, and Ethylbenzene / Methyl t-butyl ether), EPA <br /> method 5030/8015 (GCFID) for Gasoline, and EPA method 3510/8015 for Diesel. The <br /> ' analytes and concentrations detected are listed below and in Table 2 of this report. <br /> ' Groundwater Gradient <br /> The water level measurements from the monitoring wells were used to calculate the <br /> ' gradient and construct a groundwater gradient map (Figure 3). The gradient for this <br /> quarter is N60°W at 0.0031 ft/ft. Historical gradient maps are included in Appendix C. <br /> The groundwater elevation at the site fell since last quarter by an average of 1.5 feet <br /> ' across the site. <br />
