Detailed Sampling/Monitoring Results INTRODUCTION This report has been prepared by the Agency pursuant to Section 17.1 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act. The report summarizes information about your facility and samples collected and analyzed from your well(s). The well site survey provides an inventory of the area around the well(s) to help increase your awareness of potential hazards to groundwater utilized by your facility. This information and technical data will assist you in developing and implementing local groundwater protection measures authorized by the Act. FACILITY DESCRIPTION AND GEOLOGIC PROFILE OF NELL SITES The Village of Rantoul obtains its water from five drift wells. These wells supply an average of 1,310,000 gallons per day to 3,500 services. See Table I for a description of each well. The surficial geologic susceptibility rating for all five wells is E. The aquifer is overlain by low permeability glacial till. Permeability is a measure of the ability of a soil or sediment to transmit fluids. A complete description and geologic profile is found in the Facility Wells Report (Appendix C).

The samples were analyzed for In°addi'nn Tn *7(I°C) and volatile organic/aromatic compounds (VOC/VOA) In addition, Well #7 was sampled for synthetic organic pesticides. UL/VUA;‘ V0C/V°A analyses did not detect quantifiable levels of any organic compounds SOC analyses did not detect any pesticides or herbicides IOC analyses indicate that most parameters are consistent with other sand and gravel aquifers in Illinois. froorr wwpe1l1l<s noff csiimmiilia, r dj epS?thd luimn tl®hve e1s are sli9htly elevated but not uncommon area (Appendix D) WELL SITE SURVEY METHODS AND PROCFDIIRFR The detailed well site survey consists of an aerial photographic map and inventory sheets (Appendix B), that relate information about potential sources, routes, and possible problem sites to your water supply wells. The location of potential sources, routes, possible problem sites, water wells minimum setback zones and the 1,000 foot survey area are all displayed on the aerial photographic map. The first page of each survey consists of a summary description and geologic profi1e for each well, The second and following pages of the survey inventory units within and borde ring a 1,000 foot radius of the wellhead. A unit is defined as any device, mechanism, equipment, or area (exclusive of land utilized only for agri cultural production). The Agency 5-digit well number is associated with a unit or map code, and then classified. The classification codes relate to defini tions of potential contamination sources and routes as defined in the Illinoi s Groundwater Protection Act (see Groundwater Primer pages 18-19). The dis tance and direction of the unit from the wellhead is also indicated. Survey Results and Findings Rnrinnnf0Ul IIu'V116 field survey was conducted on June 16, 1989 by Wade 9enCP res,l?s and HnH 9pringf1e,d Office.
