21 November 2005 <br /> AGE-NC Project No 96-0263 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br /> allowing the wells to achieve a minimum 80%recovery of the pre-purge water volume Each water <br /> sample was transferred into three 40-m1 volatile organic analysis(VOA)vials containing 0 5 ml 18% <br /> hydrochloric acid as a sample preservative <br /> After collection, the samples were properly labeled, placed in a chilled container and transported <br /> under chain of custody to Cal Tech Environmental Laboratories (CTEL), a State of California <br /> Department of Health Services (DHS)-certified analytical laboratory The samples were analyzed <br /> for <br /> • Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline (TPI -g) in accordance with EPA <br /> Method 5030/8015 Modified, and <br /> • Benzene,toluene, ethylbenzene and total xylenes (BTEX), fuel additives di-isopropyl ether <br /> (DIPE),ethyl tertiary-butyl ether(ETBE),methyl-tertiary-butyl ether(MTBE),tertiary-amyl <br /> methyl ether (TAME), tertiary butanol (TBA), 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA) and 1,2- <br /> dibromoethane (EDB) in accordance with EPA Method 8260B <br />' • 3.0. FINDINGS <br /> Ground water elevation, flow direction, and gradient were determined from field data collected on <br /> 11 June 2005,the contaminant impact to ground water was quantified from the laboratory analytical <br /> data <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 well casing elevations (Table 1) For the June 2005 sampling event, depths to <br /> ground water ranged from 7 17 feet to 8 19 feet below the tops of the well casings Ground water <br /> elevations at the site ranged from 28 70 feet above mean sea level(MSL)in well MW-9 to 29 54 feet <br /> above MSL in well MW-11 <br /> The ground water flow direction was determined by contouring the ground water elevation data The <br /> ground water at the site was inferred to be flowing to the north-northwest at an average gradient of <br /> 0 004 foot/foot The ground water contours are depicted on Figure 3 Elevation data from deep- <br /> screened well MW-6(screened between 27 and 32 feet bsg)was not used to determine ground water <br /> flow direction <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmentai,Inc <br />
