Groundwater Monitoring: Volatile organic chemicals beneath unsewered subdivision

Fifty-nine water samples from 26 water-supply wells in and adjacent to an unsewered subdivision were analyzed to determine if on-site septic-tank, soil-absorption systems are a source of volatile organic chemicals. Three samples from two wells had 1.3 to 3.1 micrograms per liter of tetrachloroethyle...
