by the CPC and approved by the Contracting Officer. Well development shall
not begin until the well installation is complete and accepted by the
Contracting Officer. Well development operations shall be conducted
continuously until development water flows clear and free of drilling
fluids, cuttings, or other materials. At such time representative water
samples shall be tested for pH, temperature, and specific conductivity in
accordance with EPA 600/4-79/020. Samples shall be taken every 3 hours.
When stabilized readings of these parameters, as accepted by the
Contracting Officer, have been achieved for 12 consecutive hours, well
development operations shall cease.

Testing
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Testing standards and limits for contaminated
water vary widely from state to state and from
locality to locality. Designer must contact the
appropriate State and local regulatory authorities
to determine the testing standards and cleanup
levels to specify.
**************************************************************************
a.
The sum of benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylene (BTEX)
concentrations shall be determined by using EPA 530/F-93/004,
Method [8020] [_____].
b.
TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbons) concentrations shall be
determined by using EPA 530/F-93/004, Method [8015] [_____].
c.
[_____].
3.6.2
Disposal of Containerized Water
a.
Water exhibiting TPH less than [0.5] [_____] ppm and BTEX less
than [1] [_____] ppb shall be considered clean and shall be
disposed of [on-site] [on station] as directed by the Contracting
Officer.
b.
If the concentration of total BTEX is greater than [1] [_____] ppb
or TPH greater than [0.5] [_____] ppm, the water shall be treated
and disposed of at a permitted facility.
c.
[_____].
3.7
TRANSPORTATION OF CONTAMINATED SOIL AND WATER
The Contractor shall be solely responsible for complying with Federal,
State, and local requirements for transporting contaminated materials
through the applicable jurisdictions and shall bear responsibility and cost
for any noncompliance. In addition to those requirements, the Contractor
shall do the following:
