Sampling and analyses report for postburn sampling at the RM1 UCG Site, Hanna, Wyoming
Between November 28, 1988 and December 05, 1988, Western Research Institute (WRI) completed the fourth quarterly Rocky Mountain 1 (RMI) groundwater monitoring for the year 1988. This quarterly sample outing represents the first sampling since the completion of the RM1 groundwater restoration. Background material and the sampling and analytical procedures associated with this task are described in the ``Rocky Mountain 1 Postburn Groundwater Monitoring Quality Assurance Plan,`` prepared by Western Research Institute for the Gas Research Institute and the US Department of Energy. The results of sample analyses for compliance suite parameters of all wells sampled during December, 1988 are presented in Table 3. In general, wells in the west and southwest areas oi the RMI site, the wells that showed the most significant effect during the UCG burn (TW-2, EMW-lla, TW-18, and TW-17), are still showing effects of the burn after the groundwater restoration. There is a trend of higher concentrations of TOC and sulfate, with its associated higher amounts of total dissolved solids, in the groundwater from coal seam wells. Further, cross contamination to groundwater in the overburden units is indicated by the data.
