OCCURRENCE OF VOLATILE ORGANIC CHEMICALS IN NEBRASKA GROUND WATER

Abstract
This report summarizes results of monitoring programs for volatile synthetic organic chemicals (VOCs) in Nebraska's private and public water‐supply wells conducted by two State agencies. Of 97 community water‐supply systems sampled as of June 1984, 16.5 percent (16 systems) showed quantifiable levels of at least one VOC. Detectable amounts of one or more VOCs were measured in samples from 15.9 percent (10) of 63 private wells sampled in 1982. These percentages are consistent with results of other State and national surveys.
