Ms. Connie Davis/Aggregate Industries - F Street July 2002 QMR/Closure Request <br />Project Plumber 1001018 P/1RflGON <br />September 20, 2002 <br />Page 3 <br />from Figure 3a, the local groundwater flow direction appeared to be to the northeast in the <br />vicinity of the spill area with a northerly component east of the spill area on July 29, 2002. <br />The hydraulic gradient was estimated to range from approximately 0.005 to 0.02 for the <br />overall site while the hydraulic gradient was estimated to range from approximately 0.002 to <br />0.005 for the spill area based on the July 2002 groundwater elevation data. <br />Historical information regarding the groundwater flow direction and hydraulic gradient is <br />summarized below. <br /> Estimated Flow Estimated Estimated Flow Estimated <br />Date of Direction for Gradient for Direction for Gradient for <br />Monitoring Overall Site Overall Site Spill Area Spill Area <br />September 2001 Northeast with a 0.006 to 0.03 East-northeast. 0.002 to 0.006 <br /> Northerly component <br /> on the east side of <br /> the site. <br />October 2001 Northeast with a 0.009 to 0.02 Northeast with a 0.002 to 0.006 <br /> Northerly component Northerly <br /> on the east side of component east of <br /> the site. the spill area. <br />January 2002 North with a 0.004 to 0.02 East with a 0.002 to 0.02 <br /> Northwesterly Southeasterly <br /> component on the component east of <br /> east side of the site. the spill area. <br />April 2002 Northeast with a 0.006 to 0.02 East-northeast with 0.001 to 0.006 <br /> Northerly component a Northerly <br /> on the east side of component east of <br /> the site. the spill area. <br />July 2002 Northeast with a 0.005 to 0.02 Northeast with a 0.002 to 0.005 <br /> Northerly component Northerly <br /> on the east side of component east of <br /> the site. the spill area. <br />The regional groundwater flow direction and hydraulic gradients estimated for the five (5) <br />events are generally consistent with each other. The local groundwater flow direction and <br />hydraulic gradients estimated for the five (5) events aze generally consistent with each other <br />with the exception of the January 2002 flow direction and gradient, especially the Ilow <br />direction to the east of the spill area. It should be noted that local geohydrologic <br />characteristics such as flow direction and gradient may change due to vaziations in <br />precipitation and recharge or other conditions not evident at the time of field exploration. <br />
