Concentration (µg/l) PCE TCE Summer 2009 Study on influence of barometric pressure 0 30 min 6.5 hr 3 months 6 months 9 months 12 months 1 of 30 probes 1 of 18 sites Time Since Probes Were Set Results consistent for all probes/sites Replicate Samples: ~2hr vs. >24hr Perchloroethene (n=61) (n=400) 2015 & 2016, All Sites 9
10 Replicate Samples: ~2hr vs. >24hr Perchloroethene (n=61) (n=400) Replicate Samples: ~2hr vs. >24hr Perchloroethene (n=61) (n=400) 69% 31% 50% 50% 10
11 Repeat Analysis: 3 Examples Conducted on-site soil gas analysis both immediately following the 2hr equilibration period and on a later date: o Site A: ~2 hours and ~6 months (October vs. April) o Site B: ~2 hours and ~4 months (February vs. June) o Site C: ~2 hours and ~2 days (August) Saw significantly different results between the two different days with a tendency toward higher values on the later date.

15 Summary and Outlook Barometric pressure does not influence soil gas data significantly One purge volume (or less) should be used as a default instead of three purge volumes The presence of water in the soil influences soil gas results Equilibration times should be greater than two hours o No evidence for significant differences in soil gas data after 48 hours Sub-slab samples are unaffected by equilibration times Deeper samples (>5 feet) need longer equilibration times and are more affected by drilling/probe installation operations Thank You!

16 Gas Phase Behavior Ideal Gas Law: PV = nrt Dalton s Law of Partial Pressures: P total = P 1 + P 2 + P 3 P n o For a mixture of non-reacting gases, the total pressure exerted is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. Recap: Purge Volume Tests (Jones & Pulleva, AEHS 2015) 16
17 Method to Determine Equilibration Use an O 2 /CO 2 meter with pump to continuously monitor O 2 and CO 2 in soil gas Once steady state is reached begin sampling the soil gas probe Equilibration Time Comparison 5 20 Similar results not observed for sub slab samples 17
