VOCs with MTBE, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons - Gasoline Range Organics (TPH-GRO), Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons - Diesel/Oil Range Organics (TPH-DRO/ORO)
Potential petroleum contamination from gasoline, home heating oil, diesel, kerosene, leaking or overfilled fuel tanks, fuel-delivery incidents, vehicle accidents, and nearby petroleum releases. The package targets volatile fuel constituents and broader petroleum hydrocarbon fractions that may migrate through soil into groundwater and affect a private well.
Petroleum products are complex mixtures, and the chemicals that can reach groundwater depend on the type of fuel, the size and age of the release, and site conditions. VOCs with MTBE screen for mobile volatile fuel-related compounds, while TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO/ORO evaluate broader gasoline- and oil-range hydrocarbons. This package gives private-well homeowners a focused evaluation after a known or suspected fuel or oil spill and can help determine whether additional investigation or remediation may be needed.
