1126119 02/14/2024 Order Conditions Violation 2 - In a 14 February 2024 letter, the Discharger submitted a report with photographs documenting significant ponding along the enter lower portion of Cell 4 in LF-3. According to the Discharger the ponding was the result of a failed LCRS pump that remained inoperable for about three weeks. Although the Discharger stated that the pump was repaired the week of 5 February 2024, significant ponding was still preset on 13 February 2024. To address Violation 2, no later than 1 August 2024, Stanislaus County shall submit evidence that the LF-3 LCRS system is free draining such that there is no exceedance of hydraulic head over 30 centimeters on the primary liner of LF-3 liner, even during 100-year wet year and design storm conditions. This evidence shall include all historical data from the annual testing of the LCRS system, as well as the discussion of any equipment changes (i.e redundant pump system) to maintain compliance with the WDRs. Violation B Report
1126118 02/06/2024 Order Conditions Violation 1 – In a 31 January 2024 email, the Discharger asked Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Central Valley Water Board) staff if they could transfer leachate from SI-1 to SI-2, to increase the freeboard level in SI-1. Central Valley Water Board staff informed the Discharger that a transfer of leachate between the Facility’s two surface impoundments is prohibited by the WDRs, and therefore, a transfer of leachate from SI-1 to SI-2 should only occur if absolutely necessary to prevent a release. Central Valley Water Board staff also discussed other potential liquid storage options with the Discharger. On 6 February 2024 the Discharger reported that freeboard levels in SI-1 had dropped to 1.4 feet, below the two feet of freeboard required by the WDRs and Title 27. In a 7 February 2024 email, the Discharger stated that they were holding off on pumping leachate from SI-1 to SI-2. However, they had ordered five 21,000-gallon liquid storage tanks and were working on a plan to transport and dispose of 100,000 gallons of leachate at the Yolo County Central Landfill in Woodland. Since 6 February 2024 the freeboard level in SI-1 has remained under 2 feet, and as of 14 April 2024 the freeboard level in SI-1 was recorded at 0.75 feet. During this same time period, the Discharger has transferred 240,000-gallons of leachate from SI-1 into twelve onsite 21,000 gallon liquid storage tanks and 17,000-gallons of leachate from SI-1 to the Yolo County Central Landfill. To address Violation 1, no later than 1 August 2024, Stanislaus County shall submit a Compliance Plan, backed up by a revised water balance, to ensure that each of the Facility’s two Class II surface impoundment (SI-1 and SI-2) have: 1) Adequate capacity to accommodate a 100-year wet year plus a design storm event throughout the entire wet season, and 2) Adequate freeboard at the beginning of each wet season, which the WDRs state begins on 31 October each year. Violation B Report
1122914 10/04/2023 Order Conditions Exposed waste was observed outside the active disposal face at multiple locations across LF-2. Violation B Inspection
1104666 03/16/2022 Order Conditions Violations: 1. The Discharger has failed to place and/or maintain an adequate layer of daily or intermediate cover at three separate locations across LF-2. Scattered worked-in waste was present at all three locations were only daily or intermediate cover soil should be located. Exposed waste in areas of the WMU outside the active face of a WMU is a violation of Section 20680(a) of Title 27, which states in part: Except as provided in ¶(b), (f) and § 20690, the owners or operators of all municipal solid waste landfill units shall cover disposed solid waste with a minimum of six inches of compacted earthen material at the end of each operating day, or at more frequent intervals if necessary, to control vectors, fires, odors, blowing litter, and scavenging… 2. The Discharger has failed to place and/or maintain an adequate layer of daily or intermediate cover at two separate locations in LF-3 during the wet season. As outlined in Table 15 of Monitoring and Reporting Program R5-2021-0060, the wet season runs from 1 October through 30 April each year. Areas of exposed gray ash waste were present outside the active face were only daily or intermediate cover soil should be located during the wet season. Exposed waste in areas of the WMU outside the active face of a WMU is a violation of Section 20680(a) of Title 27, as noted above, and with Finding 69 of the WDRs which states in part: MSW (and other wastes co-disposed of with MSW) are generally covered with at least 6 inches of compacted soil (i.e., daily cover) and/or alternative daily cover(ADC) at the end of each operating day to control moisture infiltration … … Boiler ash discharged to LF-3 in the west season is similarly handled (no daily cover is applied at LF-3 during the dry season).
