Dear Qi: Please find the subject groundwater monitoring report attached. This includes the sampling and reporting requirements of the above referenced permit, Part V, Section B 1 as well as the reporting requirements of the overall Tank Farm Remedial Action Plan. Enclosed are: a) Form GW-59 for injection well CIW7 and monitor well MWTF 1 CR, b) piezometer level monitoring field sheet, and c) the summary operational and maintenance report. Note: Inadequate head was available in CIW7 during the sampling event. The injection well water was sampled upstream from the WLCT. Historical sampling shows that data collected from CIW7 and WLCT are identical. Please do not hesitate to contact me at (252) 322-8283 if you have any questions regarding this information.
