TRANSCRIPT

Turner/Jensen Updates

• Concurrent Sampling• Hydrosol Results• Unusual Sfc Water Results from Crimora• Instream Loading Calculations• Reconsidering Plant Reach Sources• Mapping Scour Routes

Concurrent Sfc H20 Sampling(Dupont, VDEQ, USGS)

• September 6, 2005 • Two locations

– Lyndhurst Ave, low/bkg Hg, 1 sample– Dooms, high Hg, 3 samples

• Three laboratories– StudioG/USGS ran THg and MHg– VDEQ ran THg only

• Each group provided samples to other two groups

• Dupont and VDEQ “field filtered”• USGS “lab filtered”• Dupont used pump to sample• USGS and VDEQ “dipped” samples• Some results from USGS still pending

Very Preliminary River Loadings4 Surface Water Sampling Events

• Assumptions– Used unfiltered THg concentration data at 14

stations and 4 sampling events– Interpolated discharges between SR-Ref and

Harriston– Loading = Concentration * Discharge– Loading inputs between stations = Differences

in loading between stations

Very Preliminary Loading Indications

• Higher THg inputs above Constitution Park at moderate to high flow

• Minimal THg inputs above Constitution Park during 2 very low flow samplings

• During flood of 9/04, inputs continued along entire South River below plant

• During low to moderate flow, inputs limited to upper river to Dooms or Crimora
