Multilevel monitoring, in our experience, doesn't always get the attention it deserves in the industry.
It isn't as if the UK doesn't have examples of sub-surface structures that encourage a variety of groundwater flows. We also have plenty of examples of cross-contamination because of complex site conditions. Perhaps it is lack of familiarity with the equipment available?
You can imagine that we were pleased to see that several of the speakers at the recent Solinst Symposium 2010 provided insights into the role and practice of multilevel monitoring. The importance of getting detailed site characterisations to support effective decision making was an on-going theme, and there were a number of examples of how limited investigations failed to identify contamination sources accurately. Beth Parker, of the University of Guelph, provided an insight into her detailed research into groundwater flows in fractured substrates: the highlight being that contamination plumes expand more slowly where fracturing is densest
As you can tell Waterra is enthusiastic about the benefits of multilevel monitoring and we have many years experience in supporting our customers with products and training to back it up. For more information on how we can help you choose the right approach call us today on 44 (0)121 733 7743.
