Note générale :	A plume of contamined ground water has been formed by 45 years of disposal of treated sewage to a sand and gravel aquifer at Otis AFB. The secondarily treated sewage is recharged to the aquifer by rapid infiltration through sand beds. The plume extends more than 11,000 feet to 3,500 feet wide and 75 feet thick. The plume is contained primarily in the 90 to 140 foot-ticks permeable sand and gravel that overlies less permeable fine-grained sediments. The plume is overlain by 20 to 50 feet of uncontamination ground water.
