Delineation of study Area

The study area must extend in all directions away from the site until one of the following conditions is met:

1. The water table has been established by measurement to be higher than at the proposed dye injection location on site.

2. A definite discharge boundary has been reached, such as a large perennial stream.

Typically, the study area will cover several square miles, and sometimes it may even cover 80 square miles or more.
