Summary
These data contain concentrations of tetrachloroethylene in tree-core, groundwater, soil, soil-gas, indoor-air, and sub-slab samples from the Tetrachloroethene Southeast Contamination Site in York, Nebraska, 2011-2016. Tree-core samples were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey, and all other samples were collected by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Tree-core samples were collected at the site by a two person team over 12 hours during November 2-3, 2016, using published tree-coring methods. Only samples located within the study area (perimeter outlines by tree-core sample locations) were included in this data release and evaluated in the accompanying journal article. In order to protect personally identifiable information [...]
