On 15 September 2003, the CRWQCB issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) (CRWQCB, 2003)to The Wine Group for violating the Groundwater Limitations contained in WDR Order No. 95-097. In particular, the CRWQCB indicated in the NOV that land application of wastewater might have resulted in elevated concentrations of the following constituents of concern in Facility groundwater monitoring wells: • Electrical conductivity (EC) • Total dissolved solids (TDS) • Magnesium (Mg) • Sodium (Na) • Chloride (CI) • Nitrate as nitrogen (NO3 as N) • Sulfate (SO4) The NOV ordered the preparation and submittal of a Groundwater Degradation Evaluation Report to confirm whether or not the discharge from the Facility is degrading groundwater. On 29 December 2003, The Wine Group submitted a report titled Preliminary Groundwater Evaluation Report for the Wine Group, Franzia Winery(Kennedy/Jenks, 2003). The report suggested there may be a correlation between the area where winery process wastewater is applied and elevated levels of constituents of concern in the groundwater downgradient of that area. The report provided a conceptual plan for conducting additional data collection and analysis, and for the preparation of a wastewater treatment system and management improvement plan.
