UAUTHDISC |
There was an unauthorized discharge of biosolids from the temporary centrifuge outside of the Biosolids Dewatering Room on 24 February 2020. The Facility¿s Sludge Centrifuge was out of service for repairs during the Board inspection of the Facility. A temporary centrifuge was being used by to dewater the biosolids. A malfunction occurred with the temporary centrifuge discharge pump causing a spill of approximately 1,500 gallons of biosolids on the paved and unpaved surfaces on the east side of the Facility. The weather was dry when the spill occurred and the biosolids did not reach surface water. Facility staff recovered some of the dried biosolids from spill by raking and shoveling the spill area. Recovered biosolids were placed in the sludge haul truck and the grit disposal container. |

Deficient Reporting |
The Discharger failed to monitor and report turbidity on two occasions in October 2019 as shown in Table B. The Discharger indicated there was a problem with the turbidimeter that prevented it from recording turbidity on the two days shown. |
The Discharger contacted the turbidimeter manufacturer and fixed the problem with new software downloaded from the turbidimeter manufacture's website. |

First, UV channel was taken off line and every quartz sleeve cleaned. That did not provide us with low enough coliform readings. We then used a fire hose to clean the channel and remove any growth. That did not provide us with compliant coliform totals. We finally disinfected the channel with bleach near the end of the month and sent the chlorinated water and rinse water to the holding ponds for later treatment. Judging by September coliform numbers, this seems to have cured the problem, which was probably a regrowth of coliform organisms. |
