    The document contains calculations to determine: 1) The initial concentration of a contaminant in water based on given parameters. 2) The time it would take for the contaminant to travel 1 foot through a saturated porous media using the initial concentration and Darcy's law. 3) The length of the contaminated plume after 15 hours based on the calculated travel time and an assumption about the saturated thickness of the media.
