Description Groundwater samples for BTEX, TPH-G, and VOCs were collected in October 2006 and March 2007 from 25 monitoring wells in downtown Montesano to determine the lateral extent of contamination in the surficial aquifer.

High concentrations of gasoline-range petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in wells from three source areas: Tony’s Short Stop/Grays Harbor Grange, Key Bank (Sterling)/Whitney’s Inc., and Brumfield-Twidwell.

Benzene exceeded the MTCA Method A cleanup level of 5 ug/L in ten wells, with concentrations ranging from 14 to 28,000 ug/L. TPH-G exceeded the cleanup level of 800 ug/L in eight wells (1200 to 490,000 ug/L). Tetrachloroethene exceeded the cleanup level of 5 ug/L in one Key Bank well.
