Deficient Monitoring |
Discharger was notified by the outside laboratory that the Oil and Grease sample for analysis taken on 8/14/2023 to satisfy the M-001 NPDES sampling for the compliance week of 8/13/2023 to 8/19/2023 was determined to be invalid. After total consumption of the sample volume, it was determined the LCS stock standard was invalid. Therefore, Oil and Grease results must be considered as estimated values due to missing positive control QC. |

Order Conditions |
On August 3, 2023, a valve in CDP's backwash system suffered a mechanical malfunction, causing plant effluent containing untreated backwash water to discolor the receiving waters. The CDP Laboratory collected and analyzed samples from the M-002 sampling point during the event. Results of those samples show that discoloration of receiving waters was the only permit violation. |

Deficient Monitoring |
Pesticides listed at 40 CFR section 125.58 (P) for Demeton, Guthion, Malathion, and Parathion were not analyzed or reported for PL influent of effluent due to incorrect method of 8270 and not 625.1 listed on chain of custody for January 2024 sample. When this error was discovered, the outsourced lab was contacted and informed to update the requested analysis. The outsourced lab was experiencing personnel issues and the request for the method correction was miscommunicated, although the correct method of 625.1 was annotated on the quote for services. Frequent correspondences with the lab were not effective due to staff changes where three lab mangers cycled through. |
