PA-0500468 (SA),NEW WINERY,LODI, SAN JOA QUIN <br /> COUNTY <br /> I have reviewed the Application Referral No. PA-0400468 (SA) for construction of a winery at 8338 W. <br /> Linne Road, Tracy that was distributed by San Joaquin County Community Development Department. <br /> The document briefly describes plans to construct a winery. <br /> Manufacturing wine generates wastewater that can produce nuisance odors and impact groundwater <br /> quality. California Water Code Section 13260(a)requires that any person discharging waste or <br /> proposing to discharge waste(i.e., winery wastewater and solids)must file a Report of Waste Discharge <br /> (RWD) and obtain either Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) or a wavier of WDRs from the <br /> Regional Board. Adoption of WDRs can take up to 150 days depending on the completeness of the <br /> RWD. Discharging wastewater without first securing a waiver or WDRs is a violation of California <br /> Water Code Section 13260 and exposes the discharger to enforcement actions, including fines. <br /> If the proposed winery either: (a)will crush less than 80 tons of grapes per year, (b) will produce less <br /> than 100,000 gallons of wastewater annually, or(c)will collect and haul all process wastewater for <br /> disposal off-site, then the winery should qualify for a waiver of WDRs under Resolution No. <br /> R5-2003-0106. Waiver Resolution R5-2003-106 can be found at the Regional Board website at <br /> http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/rwgcb5/adopted_orders/Waivers/R5-2003-0106.pd£ Some large wineries <br /> have obtained coverage under the Waiver for the first few years of operation. <br /> Storm Water Permit Information <br /> Depending on the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code of the final project, compliance with the <br /> National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES) General Permit No. CAS000001 for <br /> Discharges of Storm Water Associated With Industrial Activities may be required. The SIC codes of <br /> activities requiring coverage are listed in the General Permit. In order to obtain coverage by the General <br /> Permit,the proponent must submit a Notice of Intent(NOI)to comply with the permit to the State Water <br /> Resources Control Board and a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)must be prepared. <br /> If construction associated with the project will disturb more than one acre or is part of a larger common <br /> plan of development that encompasses one acre,the property owner needs to obtain permit coverage <br /> under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)General Permit No. CAS000002 <br /> California Environmental Protection Agency <br /> C4 Recycled Paper <br />
