Ms. Connie Davis/Aggregate Industries - F Slreet October 2001 QMR <br />Project Number 10010[8 PnRncoN <br />November 16, 2001 <br />Page 4 <br />temperature, electrical conductance and pH measurements; dissolved oxygen (DO) <br />measurements; and laboratory results. <br />4.1 Quarterly Monitoring Field Data <br />Groundwater temperature, electrical conductance and pH measurements were performed on <br />October l8, 2001 during purging of the wells prior to collecting groundwater samples for <br />laboratory analysis. Measurements were recorded during the removal of water from the <br />wells. The wells were considered purged when temperature, electrical conductance and pH <br />measurements stabilized to within ten (10) percent for three (3) consecutive measurements <br />and a minimum of three (3) well volumes were removed from the well. Purge water was <br />discharged on site. <br />DO measurements were also performed on October 18, 2001. DO monitoring results are <br />summarized in Table 2 and on Figure 4 which are attached to this report. As seen from <br />Table 2 and Figure 4, DO concentrations ranging from approximately 0.7 to 4.8 milligrams <br />pe.r liter (mg/L) were observed at the site during the October 2001 sampling event. <br />4.2 Quarterly Monitoring Laboratory Data <br />Groundwater samples were collected on October 18, 2001 by Paragon from wells MW-1 <br />through MW-5 and EW-1. The samples were placed in glass vials with Teflon septa and <br />transported under standard Paragon chain-of-custody procedures to Technology Laboratory, <br />Inc. (TLI) for BTEX and TEPH analyses. Laboratory results for groundwater samples <br />collected from the site in July and October 2001 are summarized in Table 2. The laboratory <br />results for the groundwater samples collected from wells MW-1 through MW-5 and EW-1 <br />on October 18, 2001 are also summarized o^ Figure 4. Copies of the October 2001 TLI <br />laboratory reports are also attached to this report. <br />As seen from Table 2 and Figure 4, BTEX and TEPH concentrations were not observed <br />above the laboratory detection limits of 0.5 micrograms per liter (µg/L) and 0.5 mg(L, <br />respectively, in the groundwater samples collected from wells MW-l through MW-5 and <br />EW-1 on October l8, 2001. Concentrations of BTEX and TEPH observed in the <br />groundwater samples collected from wells MW-1 through MW-4 and EW-1 during October <br />20(Il remained generally consistent with results from July 2001. <br />The Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for BTEX are also summarized in Table 2. As <br />seen from Table 2, the MCLs for BTEX are 5.0; 1,000; 680 and L0,000 µg/L, respectively. <br />Those standards are the statewide interim organic pollutant standards published in "The <br />
