Pumping Station: Mechanical device installed in sewer or water system or other liquid-carrying pipelines to move the liquids to a higher level.
Pumping Test: A test conducted to determine aquifer or well characteristics.
(See> pumping station.)
Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL)
A non-aqueous phase liquid with a specific gravity less than 1.0. Because the specific gravity of water is 1.0, most LNAPLs float on top of the water table.
Lifting Station: (See: pumping station.)
