Deficient Monitoring |
Quarterly sampling for total dissolved solids (TDS) was conducted on 1/3/24 for RSW-002b and sample analysis commenced on 1/4/24, which was within the Standard Method 2540C allowable holding time of seven days. However, the sample for RSW-002b was inadvertently discarded prior to completion of analysis. Due to a laboratory error, RSW-002b was not resampled, rather the original sample collected on 1/3/24 was mistakenly reanalyzed after the 7-day holding time had expired (1/17/24). Although the TDS sample for RSW-002b was analyzed past the allowable holding time, the data result was comparable to historical data at this location. |

Due to a laboratory oversight, the commercial laboratory (Weck Laboratories) analyzed the ortho-phosphate-P sample for EFF-001b (which was sampled on 2/6/24) beyond the EPA Method 365.3 allowable holding time of 48 hours (on 3/4/24). However, the ortho-phosphate-P result (0.083 mg/L) was comparable to historical data for EFF-001b. |

Order Conditions |
On Wednesday 11/29/23 at 13:30 Operations Supervisor notified Environmental that approximately 5 gallons of hydroblast water contaminated with paint chips was discharged from the from the port side scupper of the forecastle of a USS Navy Ship. A subcontractor was conducting non-skid removal on the deck, the unit lost suction due to an uneven surface and the water poured out from the collection hose, onto the deck and through the scupper. The scupper was not protected or blanked. Work was halted until the scuppers on both sides of the deck were sufficiently blanked and sealed. Work did not commence until an containment inspection was called out and approval was obtained from Environmental Dept. The paint chips were unrecoverable due to the location of the spill. A boat could not easily access the area to assist with getting the Jellyfishbot inside the hard oil boom around the ship. |

Order Conditions |
On Friday 12/15/23 Environmental got a call from Ship's Force onboard the USS Navy Ship regarding a discharge of paint chips noted within the boom of the ship. The Environmental technician told Ship's force to shut down any paint removal processes being conducted by the subcontractor until the Environmental Dept. could arrive to investigate. Upon investigation no obvious discharge location was found, but there were areas of built up paint chips and metal dust on the over water side of the containment within the exterior folds of the plastic. The containment was inadequate for the type of work (needle-gunning & hydroblasting) being performed. The subcontractor was approved to continue the paint removal effort as long as an employee with a broom and vacuum was working alongside the paint removal team to ensure paint chips were contained. Around 2 oz. of floating paint chips were recovered from inside the oil boom using the Jellyfishbot with a fine mesh collection bag. |

Order Conditions |
On Wednesday 9/27/23, Environmental was notified by Safety of a heavy rainbow sheen inside the oil boom of the USS Naval ship. Upon investigation by Environmental the heavy sheen ran along the Port side of the ship between the ship and pier. The only active discharge on the Port side was discussed with the CHENG and MPA and determined to be compensating water. The Environmental Mgr requested the compensating discharge to cease in order to further the investigate the source of the discharge. |

Surface Water |
On August 22, 2023, NASSCO Security was notified of a spill to San Diego Bay from the USNS Earl Warren (T-AO 3) at Berth 2. Approximately 1 gallon of oily storm water overflowed into the Bay from the flight deck TAO-3 mid ship. Due to the storm prediction for Hurricane Hillary, the vessel was not accessible causing storm water to overflow from the vessel deck. The incident resulted in a visible sheen approximately 20 x 40 feet in size. |

On July 26, 2023, an unknown amount of hydraulic oil spilled from a boomlift from a ruptured hose during startup. The boomlift was located on a test barge when the incident occurred resulting in a small amount of oil to reach San Diego Bay. NASSCO Security notified NASSCO Fire Department (NFD) and Environmental Engineering to respond. |

Surface Water |
On June 29, 2023, NASSCO employees were performing pipe flushing operations onboard a vessel when a gasket on the fuel strainer (filter unit) failed, resulting in approximately 100 gallons of diesel fuel to spill onto the vessel deck. Responders used absorbent pads to keep the majority of the spill to the vessel deck. However, an unknown amount (estimated less than 2 gallons) of material leaked through a plugged deck drain and into San Diego Bay resulting in a sheen of 30' by 5' on the water surface. NASSCO employees immediately secured the source of the spill, placed absorbent pads and materials on the deck, and blocked all deck drains to prevent further discharge. NASSCO also contacted our OSRO who responded to place an absorbent boom into the Bay. This incident is an NPDES permit violation, NASSCO notified the following agencies: National Response Center, Office of Emergency Services, U.S. Coast Guard, and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). |
