Deficient Reporting |
Monitoring and Reporting Program No. R3-2022-0023 requires turbidity measurements occur on a continuous basis just prior to the UV disinfection lamp chamber. The turbidity meter has not been installed. Therefore, turbidity readings have not occurred since startup. Turbidity readings are crucial to ensure proper disinfection will occur within the UV chamber. The absence of turbidity measurements and not allowing the contract operators the knowledge of a properly functioning WWTP is a violation of General Permit Provisions section E.2.j (presented earlier) and section E.2 r, which states Railway Jonata, LLC shall maintain in good working order, and operate as efficiently as possible any facility, control system, or monitoring device installed to achieve compliance with the General Permit and the Notice of Applicability. |

Wastewater flows into the WWTP more than the permitted 11,100 gallons per day instantaneous maximum is a violation of the General Permit. Flow rates verbally reported by facility operators indicates the daily maximum flow rate has been exceeded. This is a violation of General Permit Provision section E.2.j, which states the Discharger shall comply with all the conditions of the General Permit. Any noncompliance with the General Permit constitutes a violation of the Porter Cologne Water Quality Control Act and/or appropriate Regional Water Board’s Basin Plan and may be grounds for an enforcement action. |
