A multi-tracer and well-bore flow profile approach to determine occurrence, movement, and sources of perchlorate in groundwater

June 1, 2021

The purpose of this study is to determine the occurrence, movement and sources of perchlorate in groundwater using a comprehensive set of environmental tracers coupled with discreet borehole data. Potential sources of perchlorate to groundwater at the study site have been attributed to waste disposal and industrial activities as well as to past agricultural operations. Perchlorate concentrations in samples ranged from
