Book Description

Fifteen sites of potential environmental concern, grouped into six waste management zones, were evaluated. A total of 22 monitor wells were installed and groundwater samples were obtained from each well. Soil samples were obtained for chemical analysis from 12 soil borings. Samples of surface water, bottom sediments and fish tissues were obtained from three ponds. All chemical analyses were accomplished in accordance with Standard USEPA analytical methods. Based on the sampling and analyses performed, levels of contamination were found in soils or groundwater at seven of the 15 sites evaluated which warrant further investigation and potential remedial actions. Recommendations were made as to appropriate follow-up site evaluation work at these seven sites. (Author).
