Description

The Turner Valley gas plant site, used for many decades for petroleum production and refining, was decommissioned after 1985 and was designated as a historic site in 1995. A reclamation program was implemented for the redevelopment of the site. As part of the reclamation program, a groundwater containment and treatment system was constructed to contain and treat impacted groundwater. The objectives of the 2011 monitoring and sampling programs were to evaluate the groundwater quality at selected areas of the historical gas plant and the performance of the containment wall and treatment corridor.

Description

A re-occurring problem of water quality monitoring programs is the determination of whether or not a given parameter is increasing, decreasing, or remaining constant over time. This is particularly critical when regulations stipulate that parameter concentrations or loads may not increase or decrease relative to some previously defined baseline period or standard. This document recommends the most viable statistical methods for addressing this situation.
