Sanitary Sewer Overflow/Spill/ |
On August 6, 2023, a FOG blockage caused an estimated total spill volume of 7,000 gallons that overflowed from three sanitary sewer system manholes near 28061 Heron Court in Carmel Valley Ranch, of which 600 gallons discharged to three storm drains connected to the Carmel River (a water of the United States). The remaining 6,400 gallons of sewage discharged to land, was recovered by hydro-vacuum truck, and properly disposed of. On August 16, 2023, a FOG blockage in the same part of the sewer system caused an estimated total spill volume of 600 to 1,200 gallons to overflow. The overflow spilled from one sanitary sewer system manhole at the Carmel Valley Ranch Golf Course near 28025 Barn Way. |

For RSW-A Entero samples obtained on 2/13/2024 and 2/22/2024 there was a violation of the 30-day Geo Mean. Neither of those samples exceeded the single sample maximum; furthermore, the results for the sample obtained on 2/26/2024 brought us back into compliance. M1W staff believes the exceedances were a result of a plume from the Salinas River following storm events that preceded with our ocean sampling events. |

RSW-005 unionized ammonia as N was 1.42 mg/L on 10/12/23 at 10:00. Effluent - 001 ammonia as N had a reported value of 35 mg/L on 10/12/23 at 10:13. On 10/14/23, RSW-005 unionized ammonia as N was .304 mg/L at 09:25. On 10/15/23, RSW-005 unionized ammonia as N was 0.0124 mg/L at 09:21. Elevated receiving water unionized ammonia levels were due to high effluent ammonia being discharged. High-effluent ammonia was traced back to high solids loading and oxygen demand on the bioreactor. Solids loading was due to construction sequencing, loss of the dissolved air flotation thickener, and solids being unable to be removed from the system. |
