Previous remedies to clean up the contaminated site included: excavation and off-site disposal of polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated soils, capping of residual water on-site with a perimeter slurry wall, the recovery and treatment of trichloroethylene-contaminated groundwater, and institutional controls (Environmental Protection Agency, 2019). A conceptual site model (CSM) does not yet exist and is needed to (1) understand how site conditions have changed since earlier investigations; (2) reevaluate site contaminants of concerns; and (3) determine whether additional remedial actions are needed. A five-phase approach was proposed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to obtain the data needed to develop a CSM. As the second phase in that approach, the USGS in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) collected continuous groundwater-level data from five selected groundwater wells at the Superfund site from June 2022 through January 2023.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9JUK9HS", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.63bc97acd34e92aad3cd2da7.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_63bc97acd34e92aad3cd2da7", "keyword": ["Environmental Protection Agency", "Geneva Industries/Fuhrmann Energy Superfund Site", "Harris County", "Houston", "Superfund", "Texas", "USGS:63bc97acd34e92aad3cd2da7", "aquifer", "conceptual site model", "elevation", "groundwater", "groundwater level", "hydrology"], "modified": "2023-08-22T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-95.250700, 29.659300, -95.249500, 29.661300", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Continuous groundwater-level monitoring to support the development of a conceptual site model development at the Geneva Industries/Fuhrmann Energy Superfund Site, Houston, Texas, 2022\u201323"}
