electronic probe, from the mark located on the top of each casing. • The resulting data is shown in Table 2 . Depth to groundwater measurements were made prior to repair of MW-3 as discussed below.

Groundwater Sampling Close observation of MW-3 indicated that the casing and stovepipe protecting the well had been inadvertently hit. The casing had a crimp an it and would allow neither the pump nor bailer to get to the groundwater. JPCA, with an agreement with the owner, repaired he casing and reset the stovepipe in cement. . The wells were developed by pumping, purging and collecting the purged groundwater in 55-gallon drums labeled awaiting analysis. Each of the wells was pumped to dryness. The wells were slow in recovering as they were in the previous sampling event. Well data sheets are contained in Appendix A. The pump was decontaminated using tri-sodium phosphate solution (TSP) and twice rinsed with the last rinse using distilled water prior to being used in each well. Three groundwater samples, one from each well , was collected by a clean dedicated bailer, placed in two 40 ml VOAs with Teflon septa, labeled, held in a cooled (4 Degrees C) ice chest and transported to a State Certified Laboratory, under COC documentation, for analyses. The samples from Monitoring wells MW-1 and MW-2 were collected on September 25, 1995 and from Monitoring well MW-3 on September 26, 1995 after the well casing was repaired. The groundwater pumped from MW-1 had a slight hydrocarbon odor. No odor was observed in the groundwater at MW-2 . MW-3 had a noticeable odor after the water was pumped. • 4
