Objectives
• To evaluate the influence of geologic heterogeneity on field-scale microbial transport
• To incorporate any pattern of heterogeneity at any scale
• To investigate microbial transport in a simulated realistic heterogeneous setting
• To understand differences between heterogeneous microbial transport and heterogeneous solute transport
• To provide information about effectiveness of microbial filtration in a realistic setting

RiverWell
•Streamlines are mapped and used to determine origin, travel time, travel pathway and flux of water entering a well screen•Forward colloid transport simulated along each streamline using finite-difference 1-D grid: advection terms solved explicitly via high-order TVD algorithm, attach/detachment terms solved implicitly•Concentrations are mapped from each 1-D streamlines onto the 3-D grid•Breakthrough curves at the well are flux-averaged across all streamlines

Orange County Case Study
• Domestic supply for over 2 million residents• Seek increased reliability
• augment uncertain imported supplies• hedge against growth and increased demand• protection from earthquake interruption of
surface deliveries• Now:
Active infiltration of Santa Ana River and imported water in Forebay recharge basins (equals 3/4 of annual extraction)
• Future: Supplemental recharge provided from recycled
(waste) water

Primary regulatory concerns focused on water quality implications
• Water Quality Issues• longevity of
microbiological elements in subsurface
• increase of TDS from cyclic recharge
• impacts of other organic contaminants
• Management Balances• tertiary
treatment/disinfection• wetlands development• groundwater
impacts/natural attenuation
• emerging regulatory framework

Correlated lithology indicator functions generate conditioned realizations of material categories
Carle, 1996
• Discrete representation• Honors borehole lithologies • Assume lithology categories
correlate to permeability• Representation of geologic
structure is more realistic– less bias toward high
permeability values– recreate measured transitional
probabilities between facies– recreate volumetric abundance
of individual categories – recreate representative length
scales of individual categories • Generate nonunique, equally
probable “realizations”

Summary
• 1D streamline approach is presented for carrying out microbial transport simulations in a large, heterogeneous 3D domain
• In high-K layers, microbes may behave as a conservative tracer
• K variability significantly affects colloid filtration • The postulated correlation between lnK and αc is very
sensitive to parameterization (slope)• Shallow wells may be more vulnerable to microbial
contamination than deeper wells (low-k unit)• C.parvum was greatly filtered due to large particle
diameter and filtration correlations
