MEMORANDUM Project No.: 090045-017A June 29, 2015 To: Jacob Anderson and Dave McClure and, Klickitat County Natural Resources Department cc: From: Jared Bean, Senior Staff Hydrogeologist Steve Germiat, LHG, CGWP, Principal Hydrogeologist Re: White Salmon Basin (WRIA 29B) Well Monitoring Network Setup Project Objectives In 2014, the Klickitat County Board of County Commissioners allocated funding to establish a groundwater level monitoring network for the White Salmon River Basin (the Basin; aka WRIA 29B), collect a round of water level measurements from the well network, and present the information in a memorandum. The primary objective of water level monitoring over time is to support effective management, planning, and use of groundwater supplies. This type of monitoring program has been underway in portions of the adjacent Klickitat River Basin (WRIA 30) since 2007. The Basin water level monitoring program was conducted in accordance with the project- specific Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP), which was approved in 2014 prior to start of work, and was amended in 2015 (Aspect, 2015). Water Level Monitoring Network After receiving focus area guidance from the Klickitat County Natural Resources Department establishment of the well water level monitoring network for the Basin consisted of the following general steps: • Download all well logs in the focus areas of the Basin from the Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) online well log database; • Plot the total depths of all well logs per target area to illustrate shallow and deep well completion clusters in inferred primary aquifer units of each target area; • Within the shallow and deep well completion cluster zones of each target area, review stratigraphic quality of logs and select target wells for representative aquifer water level monitoring; • In coordination with the contact well owners by phone and in person to obtain permission to conduct water level monitoring in their well; and • Perform an initial field visit and water level measurement event to document well location using Global Position System (GPS), wellhead access instructions, and most appropriate water level monitoring procedure (equipment) for future monitoring events. earth+w a t e r Aspect Consulting, LLC 401 2nd Avenue S. Suite 201 Seattle, WA 98104 [PHONE REDACTED] www.aspectconsulting.com ---PAGE BREAK--- MEMORANDUM June 29, 2015 Project No.: 090045-017A Page 2 Aspect Consulting (Aspect) staff performed the initial field visit and water level measurements in October of 2014. Most wells incorporated in the network were previously identified target wells, as described above. However, several additional wells were added to the network during the initial field visit as a result of on-the-ground conversations and coordination with Basin residents and well owners. For consenting well owners, Klickitat County Public Works staff performed wellhead elevation surveys in spring 2015. Wellhead location and elevation information are used to convert depth-to-water measurement data to water level elevations, and thereby enable comparison and evaluation of water level trends between wells and within aquifers. Because budget remained, Aspect, and Central Klickitat County Conservation District (CKCD) staff performed a second round of water level measurements in April 2015, after agreement from As of June 2015, the Basin water level monitoring network consists of 37 wells. Figure 1 shows the Basin and the locations of wells in the monitoring network. Table 1 presents summary well completion information for the wells included in the monitoring network. Table 2 presents the two rounds of water level measurements to date. Water Level Measurement Procedures The depth-to-water measurements were made relative to the top of well casing or other defined measuring point at the wellhead. Other pertinent information regarding the well or the measuring of water levels was also recorded in the field notes. Depth-to-water measurements were conducted using either an electric water level indicator (e-tape) or a sonic water level indicator (sonic) as described in the QAPP (Aspect, 2015). Where possible, sonic water level monitoring is preferred because it requires no cleaning between wells, and it carries no risk of entanglement with wires or other objects in the well casing. Granted, sonic water level measurements are less precise than e-tape measurements, but the data resolution from either instrument is adequate for the purposes of water level trend monitoring. The QAPP provides a quality control evaluation between the e-tape and sonic measurements. The evaluation documents reliability of sonic measurements for depths-to-water less than approximately 250 feet below the top of well casing (Aspect, 2015). If an e-tape was used for the depth-to-water measurement, the bottom several feet of e-tape were rinsed and wiped with a clean paper towel. For wells equipped with airlines, the height of water over the airline outlet was measured in pounds per square inch (psi) and converted to feet of water (1 psi = 2.31 feet of water). If the airline outlet depth was known, water elevation was estimated as the top of casing elevation minus depth to airline outlet plus feet of water over airline (Table Attachments Table 1 – White Salmon Basin Water Level Monitoring Network Table 2 – White Salmon Basin Monitoring Network Water Level Data Figure 1 – White Salmon Basin Water Level Monitoring Network ---PAGE BREAK--- MEMORANDUM June 29, 2015 Project No.: 090045-017A Page 3 References Aspect, 2015, Quality Assurance Project Plan Update for Water Level Monitoring – WRIA 30/31/29B, March 11, 2014 and amended April 24, 2015.
