  1. Periodic Aquifer Testing at Three Locations: Savannah River Site (Hydraulic Testing),WIPP (Hydraulic & Pneumatic Testing),and Bemidji (Slug Testing)Todd C. Rasmussen, PhDUniversity of Georgia, Athenshydrology.uga.edu

  2. Savannah River Site, SC

  3. WIPP Hydraulic Testing

  4. Periodic Pneumatic Test at WIPP site, New Mexico

  5. National Crude Oil Spill Fate and Natural Attenuation Research Site near Bemidji, MN. Locations of the 1979 crude oil pipeline release point, migration pathways on the land surface, and three oil bodies in contact with shallow groundwater.

  6. Locations of the U.S. Geologic Survey aquifer tests and Don Lundy’s oscillating slug tests relative to the approximate boundaries of the north pool oil body.

  7. Photograph ofDon Lundy’s periodic slug test system set up to begin an aquifer test at a control well.

  8. Sketch of selected components ofDon Lundy’speriodic slug test equipment

  9. July 10, 2010

  10. Water-level response to multiple slug oscillations at control well 534A, including shutdown/recovery periods at approximately 6.9 and 16.8 min of elapsed time.

  11. Modeled slug movement,observed water-level response, and calculated pumping rates for the first three slug oscillations in control well 531A

  12. Comparison of aquifer hydraulic properties between the periodic slug test and a conventional aquifer test in the Glacial Aquifer at the National Crude Oil Spill Fate and Natural Attenuation Research Site, Bemidji, MN, USA.
