1. 3 x Year monitoring shall he conducted in March, July & November. Annual monitoring shall be conducted every November.
2. The measurement of water levels shall be made prior to purging the wells. "I'lie depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the top of the casing. The measurement
of p" shall be made alter purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
3. The measuring points (top of »;ell casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well. The measuring points (top
of casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed relative to a common datum.
4. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) - In November only, analyze by one ofthe following methods:
a. Standard Method 6230D. PQL at 0.5 pg/L or less
b. Standard Method 62 iOD, PQL at 0.5 lig/L or less
c. EPA Method 8021. Low Concentration. PQL at 0.5 fig/I, or less
d. EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 lag/L or less
e. Another method with prior approval by the Aquifer Protection Section Chief
Any, method used must meet tine following qualifications:
a. A laboratory roust be DWQ certified to run any method used.
b. 'File method used must. at a minimum), include all the constituents listed in Table VIII of Standard Method 62301).
c. The method used roust provide a PQI., or 0.5 ltg/L or less that roust be supported by laboratory profieiency studies as required by the DWQ Laboratory Certification Unit. Any constituents
detected above €he MDL but below the PQL of 0.5 Irg/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported.
If any volatile organic compounds (VOC) are detected as a result of monitoring as provided in Attachment C. then the Washington Regional Office Aquifer Protection Supervisor, telephone
number (252) 946-6481. must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any additional follow-up analyses required.
6. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/1 are detected in any do.vngradient monitoring well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual constituents
comprising this "I OC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 mo- this concentration will be taken to represent the naturally occurring
TOC conceiriration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and analysis as described above.
7. Monitoring wells sliall be reported consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in Figures SM-101 and SNI-102 and this attachment.
