PWS 1.0 Background on the Government’s Requirement

The objective of this work is to determine the well borehole construction, water quality, and safe yield of two existing ground water wells to establish their viability as potable water sources for the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse property.

This work ties into other future approved projects which have an overall goal to establish safe drinking water for both the BLM staff and volunteers at the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse field offices and residences. To accomplish this, the overall project is broken up into phases so that the BLM can change/adapt to the best course of action as new information is discovered. Exploring the viability of the two existing wells for providing drinking water at Piedras Blancas will allow the BLM to formulate the best source & water treatment system required to best utilize future project funds for the site.

PWS 3.0 Overall Objectives The objective of this work is to determine the construction, water quality, and establish the safe yield of two existing ground water wells to establish the wells’ viability as new water sources for the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse property.

PWS 4.0 Specific Tasks BLM was unable to locate the well logs and previous pump tests associated with the drilling of Well 1 and Well 2 at the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse. The only information that was found was two bid sheets (contained in Exhibit 5) that detail the borehole size and approximate depth. Historic staff knowledge implies the wells were drilled approximately in 2017 by the USGS.

vi. Pressure transducer (with a data logger) that is rated at a minimum of 220 psi and capable of measuring water levels from a depth of

PWS Page 6

500 feet. The pressure transducer shall be strapped to the entire length of the drop pipe or installed in a dedicated drop tube. The transducer shall be set to record water levels every minute during the step-rate and constant-rate pumping and recovery periods.

ii. be conducted to determine the maximum pumping rate for the desired intake setting.

iii. allow the well to recover overnight or until there are no changes in depth to water for at least six hours.

b. During the step-rate-test, the well shall be pumped at rates that range from about 1 to 15 gpm; each step shall be of a uniform duration ranging up to about 90 minutes each, and rates shall be held constant during each step.

c. The Contractor shall measure water levels (in feet to nearest tenth and from the same datum throughout aquifer testing):

i. The water level prior to starting the step-rate test;

ii. During the step-rate test, water level during each step at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 minutes after start of each pumping step;

3. Constant Rate Pumping Test

a. During the constant-rate test, the pumping rate shall be held constant at a rate after completion of the step-rate test.

b. The Contractor shall measure water levels (in feet to nearest tenth and from the same datum throughout aquifer testing):

i. The water level prior to starting the constant-rate test;

ii. During the constant-rate test, the water level during pumping at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 minutes after start of pumping, and every 30 minutes during the first 4 hours of pumping; and every hour for the next four hours, and every 4 hours thereafter until the water drawdown level is constant for at least four measurements

iii. Well data shall include the drawdown and pump discharge rate data versus the time

c. The Contractor shall also record the following information during the pumping tests:

i. The depth of the test pump intake;

ii. The time and date of starting and ending of pumping tests and recovery periods; and

iii. The actual pumping rate.

PWS Page 7

d. Do not over pump the well. Drawing the water level below the pump intake will cause a test failure, i.e. the pump starts to suck air. Stopping the test for any reason is a test failure. When failure occurs, restart the test at a reduced flow rate after recovery of the static water level. After completion of water level measurements for the three pumping rates, start the recovery test.

4. Recovery Test Procedure:

a. The Contractor shall measure water levels (in feet to nearest tenth and from the same datum throughout aquifer testing):

i. Water level during recovery at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 minutes after ceasing to pump, and every 30 minutes thereafter. Continue recovery water level measurements for minimum of 12 hours following cessation of pumping, or until there are no changes in depth to water for at least six hours.

b. The Contractor shall not remove the pump until the recovery test is completed. Shutoff the pump and start the stopwatch at the same time. The Contractor shall measure recovery levels at reasonable the time increments until water level is within 95% of initial static water level. If water level measurements at the indicated times becomes difficult, record the actual times. Recording water levels every minute for the first 10 minutes is acceptable.

c. If problems occur during the pumping or recovery tests, contact the COR.

Name and phone number: Cheryl Parker (831) 277-6331.

Task 3: Test the water quality of each well The contractor shall test the water quality of Well 1 and Well 2 be completing the following tests as identified in item 8 above:
