These specifications provide details for conducting a soil boring and geophysical logging for the installation ofthree (3) 4-inch diameter monitoring wells forthe purpose of confirming stratigraphy and water quality sampling and analysis to further evaluate the potential hydraulic connection to contaminated sites in the area surrounding East Windsor Municipal Utilities Authority (EWMUA) proposed water treatment site. The well sites are approximately 2,500 feet north ofthe intersection ofOld Trenton Rd and Millstone Rd. in East Windsor, NJ as shown on the attached Figure 1. The overall scope includes conducting a test boring followed by geophysical borehole logging; then after data interpretation, drilling and installation ofthree (3) 4-inch diameter PVC monitoring wells along with development, short-term yield/water level testing and collection ofwater quality samples. The three monitoring wells will be installed as a "cluster", one well in the Upper PRM, one well in the Middle PRM (Farrington Sand) and one well in the Middle PRM (Potomac). The well cluster will be located near the southeast comer ofthe EWMUA property, as shown on Figure 1. Initially, a Pilot Hole (test boring) will be advanced using mud rotary drilling and sampled using splitspoon soil sampling and undisturbed soil sample collection (Shelby Tube) in specific strata to assess stratigraphy to a depth of approximately 200 feet below ground surface (bgs) and final well construction design. At the completion ofthe soil boring, geophysical logging ofthe borehole will be conducted. One monitoring well is to be installed in 8-inch diameter borehole with a 4-inch diameter PVC single cased, as an unconsolidated gravel packed well. Two monitoring wells will be "double cased" with 8-inch diametersteel casing (threaded and coupled) installed in al2-inch diameter borehole, socketed 10 feet into the respective semi-confining layer above each aquifer unit, and pressure grouted, then extending an 8-inch diameter borehole to completion depth (one in the Farrington Sand and the other in the Potomac) for installing 4-inch diameter PVC single cased unconsolidated gravel pack wells using mud rotary drilling. After successful installation, the wells will be developed by over pumping and/or air lifting methods, and short-term yield/water level testing, as noted below.
