UAUTHDISC |
On October 28, 2024, a PG&E gas crew was in the process of assessing and
repairing a natural gas line suspected of leaking at the PG&E Cupertino Service
Center when a 3-in potable water line was accidentally struck and began to slowly
leak. A plumbing contractor was then scheduled to repair the leak the following
day. To access the leaking pipe for repairs, the excavation had to be dewatered.
While water was discharged as an Unplanned discharge under the provisions of
the General Order, required BMPs to filter the water prior to discharge were not
implemented. The contractor performing the repair was not aware of PG&E's
dewatering requirements and discharged the water without notifying PG&E
Environmental staff or applying a filter sock prior to discharge. Water was
pumped directly from the excavation and onto the ground where it flowed
approximately 700 feet north along the facility's stormwater drainage swales and
into the storm drains. |
The drainage swale and driveway were swept and cleaned of any residual mud
and trackout. Drain inlet BMPs were also cleaned and/or replaced as needed.
Staff were instructed to
have contractors check in with PG&E facility staff and environmental staff before
any water will need to be discharged so that proper procedures and requirements
can be followed. In addition, applicable staff were trained on dewatering
requirements of the General Order on October 31, 2024. |

DMON |
On March 15,2022, a review of dewatering projects for the 2021 Annual Self Monitoring Report determined that the planned discharge for this project was
incorrectly notified as a land discharge and should have been notified as a
surface water discharge because East Sand Slough is a Water of the U.S. |
Upon determining that surface water discharge requirements should have
been followed, applicable staff were notified, and the issue reviewed. Staff
were retrained on the procedures for conducting a proper evaluation on
discharge locations and discharge types. The definition of “water body”,
Waters of the U.S., and Waters of the State, which may include water
bodies that may be dry was also reviewed. |
