QUESTION 6.
Two test wells were dug on an industrial site 100m apart. The first test well found contaminated groundwater, while the second did not. The difference in groundwater elevation between the two wells is 1.0m. The average aquifer depth is 10m and the soil is sandy. Further lateral wells found the plume width to be 50m wide. Assuming the plume has almost reached the second well, and the property line is only 20m from the second well, calculate the required pumpout rate to capture the plume if a extraction well is drilled at the property line.
