<br />Water Qualitv <br /> <br />Water quality for Well Nos. I and 2 was sampled on September 4, 1996. Well No.3 was <br />not sampled as it flows directly into a reservoir under artesian pressure. Table 3-2 <br />summarizes some of the results of the water quality test: <br /> <br />Table 4-2, Groundwater Quality for Well Nos. 1 and 2 <br /> <br />Water Qualit Parameter <br />Tern erature (De rees F) <br />H <br />Ox en (m II 02) <br />Total Alkalinit (mg/l CaC03) <br />Total Hardness (m II CaC03) <br />Unionized Ammonia (m II NH 3) <br />Nitro en Gas Pressure (%) <br /> <br />Well No. I <br />100 <br />8.1 <br />2.3 <br />101 <br />13 <br />o <br />125.0 <br /> <br />Well No.2 <br />83 <br />8.1 <br />3.6 <br />78 <br />18 <br />o <br />116.4 <br /> <br />The 1996 water quality test also included results for ammonia and several metals and <br />anions. The FishPro report concluded that the groundwater supply would require <br />pretreatment before direct use in the facility to consist of nitrogen degassification and <br />aeration to increase dissolved oxygen levels. Other water quality parameters likely to <br />require adjustment prior to direct use are temperature, pH, and hardness. The actual <br />treatment selected may be specific to the species in each rearing unit of the facility. <br /> <br />Several recent water quality tests by the CDOW are shown on Table 4-3 on the following <br />page. The more recent tests for Well Nos. 1 and 2 are quite similar to the 1996 tests with <br />the exception of the pH readings, which are higher. <br /> <br />4-3 <br />
