The RWD included a Notice of Non-Applicability for compliance with the storm water <br /> General Permit and an $872 filing fee. Our review finds the RWD to be substantially <br /> complete. <br /> Resolution No. R5-2003-0106 (a copy of which is enclosed), adopted by the Regional Water <br /> Board on 11 July 2003, is a conditional waiver of waste discharge requirements for small food <br /> processors including wineries. Based on the information you have submitted, the discharge as <br /> described in the RWD satisfies the general and specific conditions of Resolution No. R5-2003- <br /> 0106 for the projected volume of wastewater to be produced. <br /> Discharge Description <br /> Tom Hoffman owns the Blue Oak Cellars facility and Hoffman Ranch LLP owns the land <br /> (collectively Discharger) at 10112 E. Woodbridge Road, Acampo, San Joaquin County. The <br /> winery is on approximately ten-acres and includes an eight-acre vineyard to which pomace, <br /> lees, and wastewater screenings will be applied. The Discharger estimates that approximately <br /> 20-tons of grapes will be crushed producing approximately 3,300 gallons of wine. The <br /> Discharger estimates approximately 20,000 gallons of wastewater will be generated on an <br /> annual basis. <br /> All wastewater will be collected in a 1,000-gallon sump and pumped into a 1,100-gallon above <br /> ground storage tank. Wastewater will be hauled to the City of Lodi wastewater treatment <br /> facility for disposal. The Discharger will haul the wastewater in winery owned vehicles. <br /> Wastewater data will be compiled and included in an annual report. <br /> Solid waste produced by the facility will consist of grape seeds, stems, skins, and lees. It is <br /> estimated that no more than 12,600 pounds of solid waste will be generated annually. <br /> Pomace will be stored temporarily on a concrete pad but will not be composted.
