Ground water quality in [he low sections of Foidel and Middle Creeks, near [heu confluence, is of calcium <br />• bicarbonate sulfate type. Electric conductivity ranges from 1010 (well 008-AV-2) to 2120 umhos (well 008-AV-I ) <br />and pH concentration range from 7.3 to 8.2 units. <br />Presently, Foidel and Middle Creeks' alluvial ground water is not utilized within the permit boundary due to the <br />relatively poor water. <br />(51 Permit applications may comply with the requirements of 2.04.7(4)(c) and 2.04J(2)(a) & (b) <br />reeardin¢ the seasonal variability of surface and Groundwater quality and quantity without the collection of data <br />coverine l2 consecutive months if accurate statistical procedures, approved by the Division, are used to extrapolate <br />from a data base covering a shorter period of time. <br />RESPONSE <br />The information presented and referenced in this permit revision application regarding seasonal variations of water <br />quality and quantity represents over five years of intensive hydrologic data collection in the permit and adjacent <br />areas. The data was collected as part of cooperative and complementary monitoring programs conducted by the US <br />Geological Survey, the USDA Agricultural Research Service (formerly Science and Education Administration), <br />personnel of the applicant, affiliates of the applicant, independent studies by universities, Federal, and State <br />agencies.
