DMON |
While re-reviewing the submitted data this morning for the ACOO, we discovered that there was a missed sample weekly event at M-001B for dissolved oxygen. All other entities were sampling for D.O. during that week so please advise if we will need to withdraw the submitted CIWQS report, and add a deficiency for the weekly monitoring. As a reminder, we are sampling at each plant because the monitoring station at the outfall has been down. We have the monitoring station scheduled in our capital program and should have a unified sampling location soon. - Amber Baylor |
