Order Conditions |
Chronic Toxicity Test for Green Algae indicated reduced growth in the effluent sample (though still within the range of 'normal' growth) vs. the laboratory control sample, so the test result was considered toxic. This sample was collected on 2/1/2021 during a brief period of discharge initiated to collect a sample, after two weeks of no discharge. Chronic toxicity is not included in the list of either Group I or Group II pollutants, but is governed by other permit conditions. Per consultation with the RWQCB, this result is being listed as an Order Conditions violation. |
