Deficient Monitoring |
Per Section 4.1 of the MRP, Oil and Grease shall be analyzed weekly in the effluent. An effluent sample was not analyzed the week of August 18, 2024. On August 19, a sample for oil and grease analysis was collected; however, an analyst did not follow proper extraction procedure and the sample was lost (the solvent gas valves in the extraction instrument were inadvertently not opened). To prevent the issue from reoccurring, analysts have been reminded to check the valves and verify solvent and gas levels prior to sample extraction. A make-up sample was collected on September 6, 2024, and will be included in the September NPDES report. |

Per Section 4.1 of the MRP, effluent samples shall be analyzed weekly for total suspended solids (TSS). An effluent TSS sample was inadvertently not collected or analyzed during the week of April 28. A make-up sample was collected in August and the result will be included in that monthly report. Per Section 8.1 of the MRP, receiving water samples shall be analyzed monthly for Methylene Blue Active Substances (MBAS). A sample collected on May 1 from receiving water station RSW-001 (R-11) was invalid because the method's hold time was exceeded by the contract lab. A make-up sample was collected in July and the result will be included in that monthly report. |

Per Section 5.1.3 of the WDR, the dissolved oxygen (DO) in the receiving water shall not be depressed below 5 mg/L as a result of the wastes discharged. On May 2 at 9:04 a.m., DO was 0.2 mg/L in a grab sample collected at receiving water station RSW-002. A 24-hour notification of the exceedance was provided via telephone to Dr. Jeong-Hee Lim on May 3 at 3:10 p.m. and a 5-day letter was submitted on May 8. This incident was investigated further, and additional details were provided in a 30-day letter submitted on June 7.  The Sanitation Districts implemented the following corrective actions: 1.Manual Mode: The SBS system will not be placed into manual mode unless staff is present onsite to monitor and respond to changing effluent flow conditions. Beginning May 8, the WRP was temporarily staffed continuously until the Secondary System SBS Dosing Pumps were fully operational on June 3 2.Installation of SBS Dosing Pumps at Secondary SBS Station: At the time of the incident, WRP staff was in the process of installing two peristaltic pumps to the Secondary (Emergency) SBS station (located adjacent to the forebay) and new SBS pipelines to transfer SBS from the existing 10,000-gallon storage tank to the Secondary SBS station and eliminate the need for carrier water. The transfer pump is used to fill the secondary tank as needed from the Primary Sodium Bisulfite Station. This dosing method has recently been employed at other WRPs and successfully eliminated the kind of plugging experienced at the WRP. As a result of the incident, staff accelerated construction and completed installation and programming required for the new peristaltic pumps and transfer line on June 3, and is using the new dosing system. 3.Eliminate Flow between Forebay Weir and Wall: The flow between the forebay weir and concrete walls was eliminated by plugging/caulking along the edges. The edges of the metal weir in the forebay were sealed on May 16. |

Per Section 4.1 of the MRP, total coliform and enterococcus shall be analyzed daily in the effluent at the manifold stations (EFF-002A and EFF-002B). There are no reportable results for enterococcus and total coliform at the manifold stations on May 9. Samples were inadvertently incubated at incorrect temperatures due to misinterpretation of container labels. To prevent a reoccurrence of this issue, analysts have been reminded to carefully verify labels prior to incubation. In addition, an end-of-day verification protocol has been implemented to promptly identify and correct any issues. |

Deficient Monitoring |
Per Section 4 of the MRP, effluent samples shall be analyzed quarterly for oil and grease. The quarterly effluent grab sample for oil and grease was inadvertently not analyzed due to laboratory oversight. The next quarterly oil and grease monitoring is scheduled for June and the result will be reported in the appropriate monthly monitoring report. To prevent a recurrence of this issue, laboratory staff have reviewed and revised procedures for tracking samples. During this period, the Pomona WRP was operating under normal conditions; thus, this parameter is expected to be within normal range on this day. |

Order Conditions |
Turbidity and settleable solids levels were elevated as a result of the partial tertiary filter bypass events that occurred at the San Jose Creek WRPs on February 4-5, 2024, due to an exceptionally heavy rainfall. The turbidity value was 9 NTU at EFF-001 and 8.3 NTU at EFF-002 in the 24-hour composite samples on February 5. Turbidity values at EFF-002 exceeded 5 NTU for a total of 920 minutes and exceeded 10 NTU for a total of 885 minutes. Settleable solids exceeded the maximum daily effluent limitation at EFF-002 with a value of 0.4 mL/L. Laboratory staff found no adverse biological effects during field observations. Under 40 CFR § 122.41(m)(1), (3), and (4), the bypass events were not prohibited because they were unavoidable to prevent severe property damage, there were no feasible alternatives, and notice was submitted to the Regional Board in accordance with permit requirements. This event was a single operational upset that was caused by the exceptional rainfall, not by wastewater treatment operator error or negligence; exceedances would not have occurred if not for the upset of the secondary biological treatment process; the Sanitation Districts carried out all reasonable and immediately feasible actions to reduce noncompliance with the applicable effluent limitations; and the Sanitation Districts maintain an approved pretreatment program. |

Order Conditions |
Per Section 3.1 of the WDR, discharge of treated wastewater at a location different from that described in the Order is prohibited. On Dec 22, 2023, at approx. 11:48 AM, a chlorinated secondary effluent spill occurred at the Warren Facility due to a broken wash water line. Chlorinated secondary effluent flowed from the Warren Facility into an LA County flood control storm drain catch basin. The spill then flowed into the Wilmington Drain which discharges into Machado Lake. Sandbag containment was deployed at approx. 1:06 PM to completely stop the spill from entering the storm drain. The total amount of chlorinated secondary effluent that entered the storm drain is approx. 18600 gal. Per Section 7.1.2.y of the WDR, if a discharger does not comply or will be unable to comply for any reason, with any prohibition of this Order that may endanger health or the environment, the Discharger shall notify the Manager of the Watershed Regulatory Section at the Los Angeles Regional Board (RB) by telephone, within 24 hours of having knowledge of such noncompliance and shall confirm this notification in writing within 5 days, unless the RB waives confirmation. RB staff was notified of the exceedance on Dec 22, 2023, at 2:30 PM, within 24-hours of receiving the preliminary notification. An email confirmation was sent to the RB on Dec 27, 2023, within 5 days of receiving the spill notification. No impacts to human health, the environment, or beneficial uses of surface water are anticipated from the incident. The discharge consisted of disinfected secondary effluent, and residual chlorine was expected to have been reduced or otherwise dissipated in the storm drain before reaching Wilmington Drain over 3,600 feet away, or Machado Lake at almost 5,000 feet. No negative impacts were observed during biological observations taken on Dec 22, 2023. Warren Facility maintenance staff replaced the corroded pipe and a project has been initiated to replace and relocate the wash water line. |

Deficient Monitoring |
Per Section 3.1 and 4.1 of the permit, Aldrin and Dieldrin shall be analyzed monthly in the effluent. An effluent sample was not collected in December 2024 because the December sampling pre-logins were not updated correctly. A make-up sample has been collected on January 24, 2024, and will be included in the January 2024 monthly NPDES report. To prevent the issue from reoccurring, the laboratory has reviewed and updated the LIMS profiles, pre-logins, and templates to ensure that all required parameters will be collected and analyzed. In addition, all samples collected will be reviewed to verify that all required parameters have been scheduled. |
