Other Water Code Sections |
Violation of Water Code Sections 13260, 13264(a), and 13377, 401 Certification Dredge/Fill
Program: Failure to obtain a permit for any modifications to create and/or maintain the
roadway through Anaverde Creek. The vehicles driving in Anaverde Creek, a natural
drainage channel/ephemeral stream, pose potential risks to water quality and surrounding
ecosystems as vehicles can discharge oils, greases, and other chemicals into the waterway.
Additionally, vehicles can disrupt the flow of water causing turbulent waters that result in
erosion. All temporary and permanent impacts to a Water of the State require the filing of a
report of waste discharge for a dredge or fill permit. |
By July 31, 2025, submit an application for streambed alteration and/or discharge of fill materials to obtain dredge and fill waste discharge requirements for impacts to non-federal waters. The proposed project must include modifications that will prevent vehicles from driving in the creek bed. Depending on the proposed mitigation, California Environmental Quality Act may be applicable. |

Order Conditions |
Violation of Board Order R6V-2012-0042, Section I.B, “No wastewater of storm water shall
leave the Landfill except as (1) either permitted by a NPDES industrial stormwater permit
issued in accordance with the federal Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Porter-Cologne Water
Quality Control Act (commencing with the Water Code section 13000) or (2) the Discharger
must submit an amended RWD that requests revising the WDR with applicable surface water
discharge specifications. The Discharger shall maintain and modify, as necessary, the storm
water pollution prevention plan develop for the Landfill.” The Industrial General Permit was
terminated without the Discharger providing an amended RWD requesting the revision of the
WDR. |
By July 1, 2025, please submit a revised report of waste discharge and/or enroll in the NPDES industrial general stormwater permit (IGP) to come back into compliance with Board Order No. R6V-2012-0042, Section I.B. |

Order Conditions |
Violation of Board Order R6V-2012-0042, Section II.G.5,” Storm water run-off within the
Landfill shall either be contained on-site or be discharged in accordance with applicable storm
water regulations. Storm water will be kept from running on site and will be diverted around
the Landfill to Anaverde Creek.” The Landfill is not being operated or maintained with the
applicable stormwater regulations as the discharge of contaminated storm water from the
Landfill was observed on February 13, 2025, and was discharged to Anaverde Creek, a
Water of the State. |
By July 1, 2025, please revise the stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) and/or submit a work plan for stormwater management upgrades to prevent the run-off impacted stormwater into Anaverde Creek. |

“WM determined that the most appropriate course of action would be to prepare an Optional Demonstration Report (ODR) in accordance with the California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 27, Section 20420(k)(7), and the RWQCB was notified accordingly by phone on August 2, 2022 and in a letter dated August 8, 2022. This ODR, to be submitted under separate cover, will assess whether the detection of TOC concentrations above the statistical limit was indicative of a measurably significant release from the landfill.” |
