Section 5 <br />Similarly, zone SAFE -10/2 increased to .a MaXiMUM Of 10.3 Ug/L, before <br />subsequently declining to 8,9 ug/L. Zone SAR-10/3 has remained non,-detect <br />(ND, less than 1 ug/L) before and after the arrival of GWRS water. Zone SAR- <br />1014 has displayed the most significant shows a significant increase in vanadium <br />with the arrival of GWRS water increasing, from approximately 3 ug/L to a <br />maximum of 311 ug/L, before subsequently declining to 137 ug/L. <br />For data from monitoring well SAR-1 1, none of the three zones at this well show <br />any discernible change in vanadium concentration with the documented initial <br />arrivals of GWRS water. Vanadium typically displays rerfox behavior similar to <br />chromium, generally portioning strongly onto solids under reducing conditions <br />and more weakly under oxidizing conditions. However, no increases in <br />chromium have been observed at either SAR-10 or SAR-1 1 with the arrival of <br />GWRS water. Field parameter data from monitoring well SAR-1 0 include <br />dissolved oxygen (DO), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), pH, and <br />temperature. <br />Since the arrival of GWRS water as SAR- 10, zone 2 has shown a steady <br />increase in DO from approximately 3 mg/L to nearly 6 mg/L, while zone I to has <br />decreased from approximately 3 mgJL to <2 mg/L. Zones 3 and 4 have largely <br />remained at their background levels of 0-2 mg/L. ORP levels in all SAR-1 0 zones <br />1, 2, and 3 haven't changed significantly with the arrival of GWRS water. The <br />SAR-1 0/4 has displayed a shift from a pre-injection negative ORP to generally <br />positive ORP post-GWRS water arrival; this may help explain the observed <br />mobilization of vanadium in this zone. The field-measured pH in all SAR-1 0 <br />zones has increased steadily with the arrival of GWRS water, from a pre-injection <br />level of -7.5 - 8.0 to 8.0 - 8.7. Similarly, the field-measured temperature in all <br />SAR-10 zones has also increased. <br />Iron and imanganese are two naturally-occurring groundwater constituents that <br />are sensitive to redox conditions in the aquifer. Result at SAR-1 0 for iron and <br />manganese do not show any dear trends with the arrival of GWRS water. NDMA <br />concentrations were evaluated at monitoring well SAR-1 0. Prior to the onset of <br />injection at MBI-1, all zones were consistently ND for NDMA. Since the <br />beginning of injection, concentrations across all zones at the well have varied <br />between 2 - 10 ng/L. The DDW NIL for NDMA is 10 ng/L and the RL is 300 ng/L. <br />Appendix F provides a more detailed discussion of the groundwater quality data. <br />The groundwater quality data from monitoring wells SAR-1 0 and SAR-11 1 indicate <br />that though there are some increases in arsenic, vanadium, and NDMA <br />concentrations, these increases are temporal in nature and localized and are not <br />anticipated to negatively impact water quality such that water quality standards <br />would be violated or beneficial uses of the water would be impaired. Therefore, <br />water quality impacts are determined to be less than significant, <br />Mid Basin Centennial Park gj§&r�40Project Final EIR 5-113 <br />�k..o <br />
