Groundwater Conditions §354 Sample Clauses

Groundwater Conditions §354. 16.‌ Two primary aquifers have been identified within the Tule Subbasin: an upper unconfined to semi-confined aquifer and a lower semi-confined to confined aquifer. The upper and lower aquifers are separated by the Xxxxxxxx Xxxx confining unit in the western portion of the subbasin. Groundwater within the southeastern portion of the subbasin is also produced from the Santa Xxxxxxxxx Formation, which is located stratigraphically below the lower aquifer. In general, groundwater in the Tule Subbasin flows from areas of natural recharge along major streams at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains on the eastern boundary towards a groundwater pumping depression in the western-central portion of the subbasin. Groundwater level changes observed in xxxxx completed in the upper aquifer show a persistent downward trend between approximately 1987 and 2017, despite a relatively wet hydrologic period between 1991 and 1999 and other intervening wet years (2005 and 2011). Groundwater level trends in xxxxx perforated exclusively in the lower aquifer vary depending on location in the subbasin. In the northwestern part of the subbasin, lower aquifer groundwater levels have shown a persistent downward trend from 1987 to 2017. In the southern part of the subbasin, groundwater levels were relatively stable between 1987 and 2007, but began declining after 2007. Changes in groundwater storage within the Tule Subbasin have been estimated through analysis of the water budget. Comparison of the groundwater inflow elements of the water budget with the outflow elements shows a cumulative change in groundwater storage over the 31-year period between 1986/87 and 2016/17 of approximately -4,948,000 acre-ft. The average annual change in storage resulting from the groundwater budget is approximately -160,000 acre-ft/yr. Seawater intrusion cannot occur in the Tule Subbasin due to its location with respect to the Pacific Ocean. Groundwater quality in the Tule Subbasin is generally very good and does not prevent the beneficial use of the water in most places. The primary exception is perched and upper aquifer groundwater in the southwest portion of the subbasin, where the beneficial use designation has been removed by the State Water Resources Control Board. The primary groundwater quality issues that could affect the beneficial uses of groundwater in the future are nitrate and pesticides. Point sources of contamination have been identified in some parts of the subbasin, but they are highl...

  • Groundwater The groundwater shall not be degraded as a result of the waste maintained at the facility.

  • Subsurface Conditions Unless the Contract Documents stipulate specific quantities and units of rock or unsuitable soils, the Contractor shall assume material below the surface of the Earth to be earth and other material that can be removed by power shovel or similar equipment. Should conditions encountered below the surface of the ground be at variance to the number of unit requirements as indicated by drawings or specifications, and absent an agreed-upon unit price established prior to the bid by Addendum, or after contract execution by Change Order, the Contract Sum and/or time shall be adjusted as provided in the Contract Documents for changes in the work.

  • Underground Tanks If underground or other storage tanks storing Hazardous Materials located on the Premises or the Project are used by Tenant or are hereafter placed on the Premises or the Project by Tenant, Tenant shall install, use, monitor, operate, maintain, upgrade and manage such storage tanks, maintain appropriate records, obtain and maintain appropriate insurance, implement reporting procedures, properly close any underground storage tanks, and take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary or required under applicable state and federal Legal Requirements, as such now exists or may hereafter be adopted or amended in connection with the installation, use, maintenance, management, operation, upgrading and closure of such storage tanks.

  • Underground Storage Tanks In accordance with the requirements of Section 3(g) of the D.C. Underground Storage Tank Management Act of 1990, as amended by the District of Columbia Underground Storage Tank Management Act of 1990 Amendment Act of 1992 (D.C. Code § 8-113.01, et seq.)

  • Unsafe Conditions In accordance with 29 CFR § 1977, occasions might arise when an employee is confronted with a choice between not performing assigned tasks or subjecting himself/herself to serious injury or death arising from a hazardous condition at the workplace. If the employee, with no reasonable alternative, refuses in good faith to expose himself/herself to the dangerous condition, he/she would be protected against subsequent discrimination. The condition causing the employee's apprehension of death or injury must be of such a nature that a reasonable person, under the circumstances then confronting the employee, would conclude that there is a real danger of death or serious injury and that there is insufficient time, due to the urgency of the situation, to eliminate the danger by resorting to regular statutory enforcement channels. In addition, in such circumstances, the employee, where possible, must also have sought from his Employer, and been unable to obtain, a correction of the dangerous condition.
