1114039 01/24/2023 CAT2 Copper, Total Maximum Daily (MDEL) limit is 14 ug/L and reported value was 16 ug/L at EFF-001G. PGS installed an Effluent Polishing System at the OWS system in October 2022 to further enhance solids and metals removal in the treatment process. Water is treated through bag filtration skids with various filter sizes to remove additional solids carried over from the Lamella Clarifier Units. Following filtration, water flows through two media vessels in a lead-lag configuration. The lead media vessel contains an organo-clay filter medium designed for remediation of total petroleum hydrocarbons, organics, and metals. The lag media vessel contains media designed for removal of total metals. On 26 January 2023--the day of the verbal notification of the MDEL noncompliance--PGS implemented a corrective action by replacing the 25-micron and 10-micron filter bags with 10-micron and 1-micron filter bags in the bag filtration skids. PGS believes this sufficiently increased sediment holding capacity. The discharge samples collected after the bag filter size change resulted in compliant total copper concentrations. Violation B eSMR
1102710 02/04/2022 ATOX Acute Toxicity Instantaneous Minimum limit is 70 % effluent and reported value was 0 % effluent at EFF-001G. As a corrective action to prevent reoccurrence, PGS shut down the OWS system in the interim to resolve the noncompliance. PGS is currently evaluating an addition of a metals polishing step on the discharge of the existing Lamella Clarifier Units. Depending on the final design selected and evaluation of the media efficiency, this OWS system upgrade may reduce the dosing rate of the treatment chemicals required to reduce the metals concentrations in the system discharge, and reduce the risk of future acute toxicity exceedances associated with the treatment chemicals. Violation B eSMR

*Click the "(+/-) Violation Description" link to expand and contract the violation description.
*As of 5/20/2010, the Water Board's Enforcement Policy requires that all violations be classified as 1, 2 or 3, with class 1 being the highest. Prior to this, violations were simply classified as Yes or No. If a 123 classification has been assigned to a violation that occurred before this date, that classification data will be displayed instead of the Yes/No data.
