2.0 SITE DATA SUMMARY <br /> Section 2.0 describes the data collected through October 2019. Depth to groundwater is <br /> characterized, then the data from the sampling required by the sampling and analysis plan <br /> (SAP). Telesto also collected additional data to address comments by objectors to the <br /> permit, further characterize water quality observations, and provide additional baseline <br /> information for parameters that have been an issue at similar sites in the past. Appendix C <br /> provides laboratory reports for all samples. <br /> 2.1 Depths to Groundwater <br /> Figures 8, 9 and 10 display measurements of depth to groundwater from ground surface. <br /> The influence of irrigation is evident in the rise and fall in groundwater levels in the spring <br /> and fall, respectively. The average fluctuation for the two-year monitoring period is 3.8 <br /> feet. MW-06 exhibits the largest yearly swing of nearly six feet while MW-11 shows the <br /> least(1.78 feet). MW-09 and MW-10 show only around 2.5 feet of yearly fluctuation. <br /> 2.2 Groundwater Quality <br /> 2.2.1 Compliance Samples <br /> Telesto collected quarterly samples since February 2018 from monitoring wells MW-6, <br /> MW-10, MW-12, MW-13 and MW-19 as required by LRM's DRMS permit and the SAP. <br /> Tables 2 and 3 display the results of the sampling in relation to Regulation 41 Standards. <br /> Table 3 also displays the corresponding total concentrations from samples from the same <br /> samples collected for dissolved parameters required by Regulation 41 Standards. Telesto <br /> does this to understand the character of the groundwater sampled, especially as the amount <br /> of sediment in wells reduces after being sampled multiple times. <br /> In general, all the samples in Tables 2 and 3 comply with Regulation 41 Standards with the <br /> exception of uranium in monitoring wells MW-06 and M W-10. The primary human health <br /> standard for selenium is 50 µg/L (WQCC, 2016). All samples fall below this value. The <br /> agricultural standard is 20 µg/L (WQCC, 2016). MW-06 and MW-10 exceed the <br /> agricultural standard for selenium in several samples. It is interesting to note that nitrate <br /> Loveland Ready-Mix Concrete 6 December 2019 <br /> T E L E S T 0 <br />
