BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Lodi Noñhern Plume - Hydrogeology and Groundwater Monitoring, Proposed Northern Plume Monitoring Well Location Technical Memorandum was prepared June 2014 by Langan Treadwell Rollo and submitted to the RegionalWater Quality Control Board (Board) for review and approval. The technical memorandum discussed past investigations in the Northern Plume area and proposed the location for the first monitoring well in the Northern Plume area. The Northern Plume is bounded by Turner Road to the north, Washington Street to the east, Pleasant Avenue to the west and Elm Street to the south, as depicted in Attachment A. Previous investigations have shown the TCE/PCE concentrations were detected at the levels 250 to 500 feet below ground surface. The purpose of the Northern Plume Monitoring Well is to provide additional data on the lateral and vertical extent of groundwater contamination associated with the City's Northern Plume and portions of the Central Plume. The proposed Northern Plume monitoring well location near the intersection of Church and Chestnut Streets is shown on the vicinity map provided in Attachment B. Preliminary data from Langan Treadwell Rollo indicates there will be four discrete depth levels to be screened for future sampling. The final discrete depths and associated well screen locations will be determined during construction and in consultation with the Board. On August 27,2014, the Board issued approval of the draft plan for the monitoring well construction. Completion of the monitoring well is expected by March 2015. Following installation of the new monitoring well, a quarterly monitoring program will be implemented that will add the monitoring of this new well to those monitoring wells in the Central, Southern and Western plume areas. FISCAL IMPACT: FUNDING AVAILABLE FWS/pmf Attachments Not applicable. Funding will be presented at award of the construction contract. F.
