Box 6336 <br /> Stockton, CA 95206 <br /> SPLIT RESULTS FOR SAMPLES COLLECTED AT FORWARD LANDFILL, SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> (CASE #2209) <br /> Enclosed with this letter is an analysis of a split water sample I took when <br /> MW-6 was sampled by California Water Labs on 22 January 1988. ,This analysis <br /> shows the presence of benzene, toluene, and xylene in the low parts per billion <br /> range. Since MW-6 is supposed to be an upgradient well in an agricultural area, <br /> I would not expect to find these chemicals. This well should be resampled as <br /> soon as possible to determine if there actually is pollution in the well , or if <br /> this is a result of lab or sampling equipment contamination. California Water <br /> Labs gave me an equipment blank at the time of the sampling, but that blank was <br /> unusable due to bubbles in the sample bottle. I suggest that you contact <br /> California Water Labs and determine if they were able to analyze any of their <br /> equipment blanks. According to Steve Furnas of California Water Labs, the <br /> sampling rig was sampling ground water at Sharpe Army Depot before moving to <br /> Forward. It is possible that contamination was carried from that site. <br /> Please let me know when you plan to resample MW-6. If you have any questions, <br /> contact me at (916) 361-5737. <br /> TIMOTHY CkANDALL \ <br /> Project Engineer f ) <br /> TAC:sg <br /> Enclosure <br /> cc: Mr. Joe Franz, Department of Health Services, Sacramento <br /> JJK Alan Biederman, San Joaquin County Local , Health District <br /> Mr. Dan Maglionico, EBA Associates, Orangevale <br /> Ms. Carolyn Richardson, California Farm Bureau Federation, Sacramento <br />
