Current through Register No. 50, December 12, 2024
Section Env-Or 606.06 - Site Geology and Hydrology

The site investigation report shall include a description of the geology and hydrogeology of the site including:

(a) Groundwater potentiometric surface(s), hydraulic gradients, flow direction, hydraulic conductivity, and seepage velocity;
(b) Soil types, distribution, and permeability;
(c) When encountered and drilled, bedrock type and characteristics, including depths and contours;
(d) Geologic cross-sections to describe the geology and hydrogeology of the site including the following:
(1) One cross-section parallel to groundwater flow and one cross-section perpendicular to groundwater flow;
(2) The horizontal and vertical scale of each cross-section;
(3) Approximate ground surface elevations and inferred elevation of contacts between the major geologic units;
(4) A complete textural description of the major soil and bedrock units, with geologic interpretation, such as fill, till, stratified drift, weathered bedrock;
(5) The location of all data sources, including soil borings, monitoring wells, test pits, and bedrock cores upon which the geologic interpretations are based;
(6) The line of section referenced to an appropriate site plan;
(7) The offset distance for all data points not located directly on the line of section;
(8) The screened interval of all groundwater monitor wells and piezometers, with measured water level or potentiometric surface elevations;
(9) The surveyed elevations of any surface water features intercepted by the line of section; and
(10) Contaminant concentrations at each data point indicated on the cross-section;
(e) A table of groundwater elevation data including:
(1) Groundwater elevations;
(2) Top of well casing elevations surveyed to the benchmark required under Env-Or 606.04(m)(4);
(3) Measured depth to water table from top of casing;
(4) If NAPL is present, measured depth to NAPL from top of casing; and
(5) If NAPL is present, NAPL thickness;
(f) A potentiometric surface map indicating the groundwater flow direction; and
(g) Any other information that is necessary to describe the geology and hydrogeology of the site.
