Subject: Access permission for monitoring well installation within city right of way.
To Whom It May Concern,
METCO is conducting an environmental investigation concerning a petroleum release at the Kiser
Trust Property located at 694 North Main Street. Per requirements by the Wisconsin Department of
Natural Resources, one monitoring well is to be installed within city right of way to define the extent
of petroleum contamination in groundwater. The proposed monitoring well location is to be in the
boulevard on the north side of West Irving Avenue, approximately 25 feet west of North Main Street
(see map). Therefore, we are requesting permission from the City of Oshkosh to conduct this work.
The monitoring well will be constructed by advancing a 8 -inch diameter soil boring to the required
depth (14 feet) and installing a two inch diameter monitoring well with a slotted screen. Uniform
washed sand is installed around the well screen to serve as a filter pack. Bentonite is used above the
filter pack to provide an annular space seal. A locking watertight cap along with a steel flush - mounted
cover will be installed with the monitoring wells for protection. Soil cuttings generated during the
drilling process will be containerized in 55- gallon DOT drums and will be temporarily stored on the
Kiser Trust property until they can be properly disposed (approximately one month). The monitoring
well installation project is expected to be completed in one day.
After the monitoring well installation is completed, access to the well will be necessary on occasion.
Events where access to the well will be required in the next year include development of the well and
quarterly groundwater sampling. These events only require approximately fifteen minutes of work at
the monitoring well.
It is our experience that the WDNR usually requires that monitoring wells remain in place (for
sampling purposes) for a duration of approximately 2 years, and possibly longer, depending on actual
site conditions/WDNR requirements. Once the groundwater monitoring is complete, the monitoring
well will be properly abandoned with bentonite clay.
This project has not been scheduled, but is expected to be conducted in December 2010. Diggers
Hotline and local water /sewer utilities will be notified. A City of Oshkosh General Application,
Environmental Consulting, Fuel System Design, Installation and Service
4
application fee, and two Site Layout Maps showing the proposed monitoring well location have been
attached. Should you have any questions, or require additional information, do not hesitate to contact
our La Crosse office at 608 - 781 -8879.
Sincerely,
Eric Dahl
