Laboratory Analyses. The seven surface soil samples were analyzed for water content by Sequoia Analytical Laboratory within one week of submission. The results are contained in Table 13. The twelve subsurface soil samples were analyzed by Soil Mechanics Laboratory within a week of their receipt. Laboratory analyses of the subsurface samples included lithologic descriptions, bulk density determinations, and water content determinations. Bulk density and water content results for the subsurface samples are contained in Table 14. Appendix D contains all laboratory analytic results for soil samples. 133 TABLE 13 SURFACE SOIL MOISTURE ANALYTIC RESULTS APRIL 1989 134 TABLE 14 SUBSURFACE SOIL BULK DENSITY IUD MOISTURE ANALYTIC RESULTS JUNE 1989 Dry Sample Site Sample Depth Bulk Density Water Content Well Number (feet) (g/cm(3)) (percent dry weight) ----------- ------ -------- -------------------- VW-1 1.5 - 2.0 1.09 43.1 VW-1 5.5 - 6.0 1.44 24.5 VW-2 1.5 - 2.0 1.15 46.0 VW-2 4.5 - 5.0 1.41 16.5 VW-3 1.5 - 2.0 1.18 22.7 VW-3 4.5 - 5.0 1.29 30.8 VW-4 1.5 - 2.0 1.36 26.0 VW-4 4.5 - 5.0 1.69 18.4 VW-5 1.5 - 2.0 1.22 40.7 VW-5 4.5 - 5.0 1.22 39.8 VW-6 1.5 - 2.0 1.34 34.3 VW-6 4.5 - 5.0 1.08 39.5 Average: 1.29 31.9 135
