TACOMA LANDFILL ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLING DATA: JULY 1983 TO JANUARY 1996
Citation:
Description:
The data set contains both ground water and surface water data from environmental sampling at the Tacoma Landfill, a National Priority List (NPL) Superfund site in Washington State. It contains a complete set of analytical chemistry and other sampling parameters associated with the Tacoma Landfill site from 7/26/83 to 1/5/96. The ground water data represents samples collected from 94 monitoring wells, on 246 different dates, for 300 separate parameters; the more limited surface water sampling data represent samples collected at 17 locations, on 16 separate dates (from 9/4/91 to 5/6/93) and 73 parameters. The data set now available was assembled from data provided by the City of Tacoma, contractors to EPA, from historical paper documents, and from the EPA and Dept. of Ecology Laboratory data systems. It is the final product of an effort by the Management and Hydrogeology staff of the Office of Environmental Assessment, EPA Region 10, with critical support provided by Superfund ESAT contract staff.
