• • <br /> (b) Permittee may continue injection into well STIG-I at a Maximum Available <br /> Injection Pressure (MAID) at the wellhead of 975 psi, as established while <br /> injecting under the authority of the original permit (#CA194000002), only <br /> until re-establishing the MAIP for the well by conducting a Step-Rate Test in <br /> accordance with Section B paragraph 3(b) of this part. <br /> (c) In no case shall pressure in the injection zone during injection initiate new <br /> fractures or propagate existing fractures in the injection zone or the confining <br /> zone. In no case shall injection pressure cause the movement of injection or <br /> formation fluids into or between underground sources of drinking water. In <br /> no case shall injection fluids be allowed to migrate to oilfield production <br /> wells. <br /> 4. Injection Volume(Rate)Limitation <br /> (a) The injection rate for wells LEC-1 and LEC-2 shall not exceed the volume <br /> determined appropriate through the demonstrations conducted in this section <br /> and justified by measured friction factors. EPA will provide written <br /> notification of the maximum injection volume allowed under this permit <br /> prior to any injection conducted after an approved SRT (see Section B.3(b)). <br /> (b) Permittee may continue injection into well STIG-1 at a maximum injection <br /> rate of 200 gallons per minute(gpm), as established while injecting under the <br /> authority of the original permit (#CA194000002), only until re-establishing <br /> the maximum injection rate for the well by conducting a Step-Rate Test in <br /> accordance with Section B paragraph 3(b) of this part. <br /> (c) The Permittee may request an increase in the maximum rate allowed in <br /> paragraphs (a) and (b) above. Any such request shall be made in writing and <br /> appropriately justified to EPA. <br /> (d) Any request for an increase in injection rate shall demonstrate to the <br /> satisfaction of EPA that the increase in volume will not interfere with the <br /> operation of the facility, its ability to meet conditions described in this <br /> permit, change its well classification, or cause migration of injectate or <br /> pressure buildup to occur beyond the Area of Review. <br /> 5. Injection Fluid Limitation <br /> Injection fluids in well STIG-1 consist of tertiary-treated makeup water from the <br /> City of Lodi's White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility ("WPCF"), brine <br /> reject from the ultrafiltration units, brine from the reverse osmosis units, and <br /> blowdown from the cooling towers. The remaining fluids consist of both continuous <br /> and intermittent blowdowns from the Heat Recovery Boilers. <br /> _I <br /> FINAL UIC Permit CA10910003 <br /> Page 16 of 29 <br />
