GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTION <br /> Groundwater levels were measured in monitoring wells MW-1, MW-2, and MW-3, on July 13, <br /> 2000. Groundwater flow, as shown in figure 2, is inferred to be toward the southwest. The <br /> groundwater gradient is 0.00173 foot per foot, and it was calculated by dividing the difference in <br /> elevation between the 49.5 and 51.5 foot contours (2.0 feet), and dividing by the measured <br /> distance between them (1154.4 feet). <br /> ' STANDARD OBSERVATIONS <br /> Weekly site inspections have been performed during the third quarter of 2000 and in prior <br /> quarters. A summary of the weekly observations for the quarter can be found on the form in <br /> Appendix F. A signature on the form is the certification that all observations were performed <br /> and are accurate. <br /> RUN-OFF/RUN-ON FACILITIES <br /> The Foothill Sanitary Landfill utilizes several methods to control run-on and run-off. The natural <br /> topography of the area works to control any run-on into the site. Also, the working area is a <br /> significant distance from the property boundary, so run-on from surrounding properties is <br /> minimal. To control run-off, a perimeter ditch along the north and east ends of the unit direct all <br /> storm water run-off into a sedimentation basin on the east side of the site. The rest of the run-off <br /> from the unit gathers into a temporary sedimentation basin that is the excavation of a future <br /> module. During the third quarter of 2000 there were no breeches to any of the run-on/run-off <br /> facilities, and they will continue to be monitored in the future. <br /> N:\Michael\FH\GWmon\3rdOOrep.wpd <br /> 7 <br />
