October 2000 5 <br />• Purge Volume Calculation <br />G=V*3 <br />Where: W =Depth of Well (feet} <br />D =Depth to Water (feet) <br />C =Gallons per foot for casing or borehole diameter <br />V =Well Volume (gallons) <br />G =Target purge volume if well does not go dry (3 well <br />volumes, in gallons) <br />Field pazameters (pH, temperamre, and conductivity) will be measured during purging and <br />purging will continue until field parameters stabilize. Parameters aze considered stabilized when <br />three consecutive readings of conductivity and temperature aze within a ±10 percent change and <br />three consecutive pH readings are within ±0.2 pH units. Meters used to measure field <br />parameters will be calibrated according to manufacturer's recommendations immediately prior <br />to purging. All field parameter values will be recorded on a field sampling form or in a field <br />book. <br />L <br />Purge water generated during the sampling events will be discharged on the ground at or near <br />the well site unless previous analyses have indicated that groundwater contamination has occurred <br />at that well location. If analytical results indicate that groundwater contamination has occurred, <br />purge water will be containerized and disposed in accordance with state and federal regulations. <br />2.5 Sample Collection, Preservation, and Shipment <br />Sampling will be conducted immediately following purging with the same equipment used for <br />purging. For those wells that were purged dry and aze slow to recharge, sampling will be <br />done as soon as practical but will not extend beyond 48 hours. Every attempt will be made <br />to collect the volatile organic compound (VOC) samples from the slow recharging wells within <br />24 hours of purging. If sufficient volumes cannot be collected within 48 hours, sample <br />collection at the subject well will be suspended until the next monitoring event and any <br />• partially filled sample bottles will be submitted to the laboratory for limited analysis. <br />ioo9.ooc Sedalia Reryeling Center and Oeposifory <br />
