GEOCHECK® - PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCE SUMMARY <br />GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTION INFORMATION <br />Groundwater flow direction for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional <br />using site - specific well data. If such data is not reasonably ascertainable, it may be necessary to rely on other <br />sources of information, such as surface topographic information, hydrologic information, hydrogeologic data <br />collected on nearby properties, and regional groundwater flow information (from deep aquifers). <br />TOPOGRAPHIC INFORMATION <br />Surface topography may be indicative of the direction of surficial groundwater flow. This information can be used to <br />assist the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the impact of nearby contaminated properties or, <br />should contamination exist on the target property, what downgradient sites might be impacted. <br />TARGET PROPERTY TOPOGRAPHY <br />General Topographic Gradient: General North <br />SURROUNDING TOPOGRAPHY: ELEVATION PROFILES <br />M <br />North I South <br />TIP <br />0 <br />W nJj. - N- SP SP - m N - - - - .UL A - w -g <br />v v g <br />West I East <br />TIP <br />1/2 1 Miles <br />Target Property Elevation: 726 ft. <br />Source: Topography has been determined from the USGS 7.5' Digital Elevation Model and should be evaluated <br />on a relative (not an absolute) basis.
