Dear Mr. Anderson:
This letter is in response to your September 6, 1990, letter conceming a modification to the
groundwater sampling protocols for wells GW-20, 21, 24, 27, 30, 31, 34, 36, and 55.
Your request for a modification is granted. This modification will allow the above
mentioned nine wells to be sampled and analyzed for volatile organics and field
measurements of pH, electrical conductivity and temperature. The reason for this
modification is because the groundwater levels in these wells have significantly dropped in
the last few years and they are slow to recharge. Also, the contamination identified in these
wells, historically, has been volatile organics. This modification will remain in affect for one
year unless the groundwater level in these wells increases to allow a sufficient volume of
water to collect all the required parameters.
Please be advised that replacement wells could be required for some of the wells if they
carmot produce enough groundwater to collect a sample.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact Don Verbica at 538-6170.
Sincerely,
<—<.y^
