Seeley CWD conducted sampling for effluent Cyanide per monthly requirements. Samples were stored appropriately and delivered to laboratory who then failed to test samples within holding times. Resampling for the monthly sample was no longer an option as the facility was now offline and no longer discharging to receiving waters. |
This is an error on the part of the contracted laboratory and there are no corrective actions to be taken by District staff except to start looking at alternatives to this laboratory, if possible. Though this has not happened yet. |

Deficient Reporting |
Seeley CWD staff collected effluent samples for Ammonia analysis. Samples were delivered to satellite location with chain of custody. Sample was damaged en route to main laboratory location and due to a miscommunication the effluent Ammonia sample analysis was cancelled and this information was not reported by the lab to Seeley staff. By the time this issue was discovered any remaining sample was past holding times and the quarter had ended. Attached is a letter from the laboratory's quality assurance director explaining the situation. |
We cannot comment on what actions the laboratory will take in the event of a similar event happening again. However, Seeley staff will promptly review laboratory results as they arrive for any missing results. |

There was an increase of dump station/receiving station traffic in March. However, all valves within the treatment plant were checked to eliminate any possibility of short circuiting; as increased load in the plant influent would take time to show up in effluent.

As stated in the discharger comment section for this sample and the week's previous sample we reviewed our documents (log book and daily checklists) for anything that would suggest or point to a problem with the plant or the process. Initially we attributed this violation to operator error (error in sampling) since only one of the 3 bacti samples in the bacti sample set came back over limit. We are attempting to more closely monitor the flow and are making adjustments to the UV system power output and lamp intensity.

Enterococci Single Sample Maximum limit is 100 MPN/100 mL and reported value was 220 MPN/100 mL at EFF-001. |
As stated in the discharger comment section we reviewed our documents (log book and daily checklists) for anything that would suggest or point to a problem with the plant or the process. Initially we attributed this violation to operator error (error in sampling) since only one of the 3 bacti samples in the bacti sample set came back over limit. |

Deficient Reporting |
Although we did collect and submit effluent copper, cyanide, mercury, and bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate samples to the local laboratory we have yet to receive those results from the lab despite numerous attempts at collecting those reports. Attached to this report are the chain of custody sheets showing collection date/time as well as received by information for lab personnel. |
1: If the local lab submits these results we will request from waterboards to have this report withdrawn so we can resubmit with the lab results.
2: As of November 2019 we began using Babcock laboratories for the majority of our wastewater sampling because of the issues we've had with the local labs. |

Deficient Reporting |
To date lab has failed to report back to us various results. Samples were collected and delivered to the lab. |
We have reached out to the lab which has since closed its door leaving us with a number of pending results. We will still continue to request results to the best of our ability and we will request to have this report withdrawn once we receive the pending results so we can submit the complete report. We switched labs because of the long delays in their reporting and the new lab has been very responsive. |
