Sarah and Chris, here is my take on the PBWW decision criteria:
TSA:
BOP-43(dg): change this to BOP-20(dg), since the development of lot 1 might eliminate BOP-43 anyway, keep MCL.
EMC-2(dg): keep this as is since it is the only well of the PBWW wells listed that has had detections
D-15(dg), PWB-2(lts): eliminate, but perhaps replace with PWB-1(lts) since there are actually low concentrations but make the criteria MCL instead of 1 ug/l.
SGA:
PWB-2(usg): eliminate
BOP-68(usg), BOP-44(usg), EMC-2(ust), PWB-1(usg): if we say there isn't a plume in the SGA is seems pointless to monitor it, on the other hand (as geologists are wont to say) if pumping is stopped in EW-20 then conditions would change (even though there is an expected upward gradient) so something should be monitored. Would this be done effectively by DEQ-3(usg) using MCL? I think 9 to 11 years of non detect at pretty low detection limits elsewhere in the SGA is comfort enough that the plume did not spread.
Let me know what you think. I am pretty busy tomorrow but would have some time before 10 am to talk. Otherwise I am out until Monday before 10 am then at meetings the rest of next week.
