Box 595 <br /> Linden, CA 95236 <br /> INSPECTION REPORT, LINDEN COUNTY WATER DISTRICT WASTEWATER TREATMENT <br /> PLANT, SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> Enclosed is a report summarizing my 29 August 2000 inspection of your facility. In general, the <br /> wastewater treatment plant was clean and well maintained. A site inspection photograph log is enclosed <br /> with this letter. <br /> The following observations were made during the site inspection: <br /> • All wastewater is being discharged to a mechanically aerated treatment pond. The pond was <br /> equipped with two aerators which were operating. No odor was noted in the vicinity of the pond. <br /> The freeboard of all ponds at the site was acceptable (a minimum of 2 feet). <br /> • The berms were in good condition during my inspection. <br /> • The other onsite ponds which are not normally used for wastewater treatment/disposal were dry. <br /> A soil stockpile was observed in the northern-most pond. You stated the soil would be used for <br /> construction of the planned new evaporation/percolation ponds. <br /> During our meeting you described plans to expand the wastewater treatment plant due to residential <br /> development in the area. The plan to expand the treatment plant includes construction of evaporation/ <br /> treatment ponds to the west on what is now farm land. This change in the wastewater system requires <br /> submittal of a Report of Waste Discharge and updating the existing Waste Discharge Requirements <br /> (WDRs). The request for a RWD will be contained in a separate letter. <br /> If you have any questions on this information, please telephone me at (916) 255-3116. <br /> TIMOTHY R.
