state Rea. <br />while average Z9.S values at wells 46-A arri 69-A were 2365 aryl 3395 • <br />mg/1, respectively. Z9.S concentrations have been increasing since <br />well 68-A was first sampled in 1988. <br />Sboils Aquifer. Peabody currently monitors spoils aquifer water <br />chc-~istsy at five wells: 25-5, 26-5, 27-5, 61-5, and 62-5. Water <br />samples Collected frc~ the spoils aquifer have historically, as well <br />as during water year 1991, displayed a CaMg-504 or MyCa-S04 water <br />type. <br />Wells 25-5, 26-5 and 27-5 monitor the spoils upgradient fran the <br />Wadge T~~~*+t. Well 25-S has had insufficient water for sampling <br />in recent years. Water samples fry well 26-5 have the highest TDS <br />concentrations of all the spoils wells monitored, and 'IDS levels have <br />been increasing since this well was first sampled in 1981. Although <br />well 27-5 is dodngradient of 26-5, lower TDS concentrations are seen <br />at this site, possibly due to the dilution effects of water from the <br />Wadge 7i~cxurLmnt. • <br />~?, Well 61-5 monitors the spoils aquifer in the Spring Creek area, south <br />of the Wadge Impourr3tnent. 7.D6 levels at this site declined slightly <br />during water year 1991 with an average 7.D5 of 3658 mg/1. Water <br />quality at well 62-S, which monitors the spoils aquifer near PorYl <br />004, is similar to 61-5, although 'iAR concentrations have been <br />increasing at this site since it was first sampled in 1988. <br />Leru~ox-Wadae Interburden Aquifer. 7.Wo wells are currently used to <br />monitor the Lezu~ox-Wadge Interburden aquifer, wells 21 IWI and <br />42-P1-LWI, although 42P1-LWI did not have sufficient water to sample <br />during water year 1991. <br />Water samples collected at 2~IWI have a CaMg-SO4H~3 water type. <br />7.US concentrations have declined at this site since a peak value of <br />2960 mg/1 was measiu~ed in 1984. • <br />Wadge Coal Aquifer.
