      <abstract>This dataset describes plume boundary extents for total dinitrotoluene (Total DNT) in the vicinity of the Badger Army Ammunition Plant in Sauk County, Wisconsin for various time intervals between 2000 - 2018.</abstract>
      <purpose>The purpose of these data were to delineate plume boundary extents for various contaminants of concern at multiple time intervals between 2000 - 2018, and assess the overall monitoring network at the Badger Army Ammunition Plant.</purpose>
      <supplinf>Each plume boundary file name is organized to include the contaminant of concern (COC), start (YEAR1) and end (YEAR2) of time interval, plume ID, and whether the boundary is defined by the enforcement standard (ES) or preventive action (PAL) limit concentration. The structure is as follows: 

COC_YEAR1_YEAR2_PLUMEID_ES/PAL

Where the seven possible contaminants are: (1) CTET - carbon tetrachloride, (2) TCE - trichloroethene, (3) T112TCA - 1,1,2-trichloroethane, (4) EE - ethyl ether, (5) T24DNT - 2,4-dinitrotoluene, (6) T26DNT - 2,6-dinitrotoluene, or (7) TDNT - total dinitrotoluene; 
the four possible time intervals are: (1) 2000-2002, (2) 2005 - 2007, (3) 2010 - 2012, or (4) 2015 - 2018; 
and the three possible plume IDs are: (1) PBG - propellant burning ground, (2) CP - central plume, or (3) DBG - deterrent burning ground.</supplinf>

        <procdesc>The maximum contaminant concentration value for each well in a multi-year period (2000-02, 2005-07, 2010-12, 2015-18) was identified. For wells with non-detect results, 1/2 the limit of detection was used for the concentration value.</procdesc>
        <procdate>2019</procdate>
      </procstep>
      <procstep>
        <procdesc>A natural-neighbor interpolation of the chemical data for each contaminant at each depth interval was implemented, which created a 10-by-10-ft resolution raster of contaminant concentration.</procdesc>
        <procdate>2019</procdate>
      </procstep>
      <procstep>
        <procdesc>Contour lines at the desired contaminant level ES (or PAL) were extracted. The plume boundaries for all depth intervals (A–F) were overlaid, and the outer-most edge of all of the levels (spatial union) was taken as the map-view plume boundary.</procdesc>
        <procdate>2019</procdate>
      </procstep>
      <procstep>
        <procdesc>The plume boundary was manually smoothed to remove interpolation artifacts, including physically unreasonable plume shapes. The plume boundaries were evaluated to determine whether all sides of the plume boundary were surrounded by wells with a 3-year value less than the ES (PAL) for every depth interval in which there was an ES (PAL) exceedance. If a well exceeding the contaminant ES (PAL) was on the outer extent of the monitoring well network, then the contour line was drawn as a solid line along the well field boundary. If this criterion was not met, the line was dashed to indicate uncertainty over the exact positioning of the plume boundary because the sample well field may have determined the plume extent.</procdesc>
