R5-2004-0704,THE WINE GROUP, SAN <br /> JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> On 27 February 2004, staff transmitted a draft Cleanup and Abatement Order(C&A)to The Wine <br /> Group addressing the degradation of groundwater underlying the Franzia Winery facility. Since that <br /> time,Regional Board staff have met with representatives of the Wine Group to discuss the draft C&A, <br /> made some modifications to the draft C&A based on that meeting, and resubmitted the draft C&A to <br /> the Wine Group for comment. On 12 April 2004,Kennedy/Jenks Consultants (K/J) submitted a letter <br /> on behalf of The Wine Group, commenting on and proposing changes to the revised C&A. <br /> The K/J letter argued that, for this situation, a C&A was neither warranted nor necessary. However, it <br /> is staffs opinion, based on the evidence presented by The Wine Group, that degradation of <br /> groundwater underlying the Franzia Winery facility has occurred as a result of the discharge of process <br /> wastewater from the facility, and that a C&A is clearly warranted. In addition, although staff <br /> appreciates the willingness of The Wine Group to address this problem, a C&A is necessary to ensure <br /> a timely resolution to the problem. <br /> The K/J letter also proposed several changes to the draft CAO. Staff has taken those proposed <br /> changes into consideration and has made the proposed changes that were found appropriate. <br /> Enclosed is Cleanup and Abatement Order No. R5-2004-0704. Please note that The Wine Group must <br /> submit a number of reports. The first of these are a Groundwater Protection Workplan, due on <br /> 21 June 2004 and the first quarterly progress report, due on 1 August 2004. <br /> California Environmental Protection Agency <br /> �b� Fecyc(erl Paper <br />
