Storm water runoff (estimated to be up to 2,200 gpd) from the tank farm area is collected in a sump, and is proposed to be discharged to the San Joaquin River without treatment, following visual inspection. 7. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Board have classified this discharge as a minor discharge. 8. The Board adopted a Water Quality Control Plan, Second Edition, for the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta Basin (5B) (hereafter Basin Plan) which contains water quality objectives for all waters of the Basin. These requirements implement the Basin Plan. q. The beneficial uses of the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta downstream of the discharge are municipal. industrial, and agricultural supply; water contact and noncontact recreation; esthetic enjoyment; navigation; fresh water replenishment; and preservation and enhancement of fish, ryildlife and other aquatic resources. 10. The beneficial uses of the underlying ground water are municipal and domestic, industrial, and agricultural supply. 11. `file Board has considered antidegradation pursuant to 40 CFR 131.12 and State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Resolution 68-16 and finds that the permitted discharge is consistent with those provisions. This Order provides for an increase in the volume and mass of pollutants discharged. The increase will not cause significant impacts on aquatic life or other beneficial uses. The discharge accommodates economic expansion in the area, a benefit to the people of the state. 12. The SWRCB Water Quality Control flan for Control of Temperatures in Coastal and Interstate Waters and Enclosed Bays and Estuaries of California (the Thermal Plan) is applicable to this dischan-ye. 13. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) adopted the California Inland Surface Waters Plan and the Enclosed Bays and Estuaries Plan (Plans) on I 1 April 1991. On 19 November 1992 the SWRCB adopted amendments to the Plans. The Plans include water quality objectives and other requirements. This discharge is subject to the Plans. This Order implements the Plans. The Enclosed Bays and Estuaries Plan applies to the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta. However, because the Delta is a freshwater environment. the numerical water quality objectives from the Inland Surt'ace Waters Plan shall be applied there.
