There was an issue with the composite sampler on 8/5/22 causing it not to collect without a chance to collect an additional daily sample since cBODs are collected Tue-Sat. We don't analyze for Eff composite cBOD on Sunday and Monday. 8-1-22 landed on a Monday which we normally don't test for cBOD. |
The block line was flushed to remove any material that was stopping the flow of water samples. The effluent composite sampler was put back in service on 08/05/22. The effluent composite sampler was inspected before the end of the day for proper operation and observed that samples were being collected. In addition, effluent composite cBOD was analyzed on 08/07 /22 to satisfy the ACOO permit that applies for 5 days per week. Moving forward, WRP operators will check the line going to the effluent composite sampler daily and have regular maintenance for proper operation. |

DMON |
While re-reviewing the submitted data this morning for the ACOO, we discovered that there was a missed sample weekly event at M-001B for dissolved oxygen. All other entities were sampling for D.O. during that week so please advise if we will need to withdraw the submitted CIWQS report, and add a deficiency for the weekly monitoring. As a reminder, we are sampling at each plant because the monitoring station at the outfall has been down. We have the monitoring station scheduled in our capital program and should have a unified sampling location soon. - Amber Baylor |

On June 10, 2021, the sewage sludge force main between the South Orange County Wastewater Authority¿s (SOCWA¿s) Coastal Treatment Plan (CTP) and the Regional Treatment Plant experienced a pipeline failure resulting in a spill of non-chlorinated sewage sludge within the Aliso and Woods Canyons Wilderness Park (AWCWP) (Figure 1). The spill was situated along a dirt maintenance road off Alicia Parkway on the east side of Aliso Creek; the road is intended to provide the dual purpose of providing access to existing sewer and wastewater infrastructure as well as providing trail use to those who recreate in the AWCWP (Figure 2). The pipeline leak was repaired, and the spill was contained on the same day. A total spill volume of approximately 1,920 gallons of sewage sludge was released, cleaned up, and disposed of properly offsite. |
