SUMMARY:      
During the well development activities for new monitoring wells installed for the KAFB Jet Fuel Spill investigation, the solvent, Tetrachloroethylene or PCE, was discovered in samples taken from water produced during the activities.  The New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) has initiated preliminary Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) response activities to determine the source of these detections.
 
Dr. Jim Davis, NMED Resource Protection Division Director, will summarize the planned CERCLA, or Superfund, activities in dealing with these detections.
