CALIFORNIA• QUALITY CONTROLBOARD CENTRAL VALLEY REGION MONITORING REPORTING PROGRA O CITY OF • • AUSTIN ROAD LANDFILL CLASS III LANDFILL SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY The Discharger shall maintain water quality monitoring systems which are appropriate for detection and evaluation monitoring and that comply with the provisions of Title 23, California Code of Regulations (CCR), Division 3, Chapter 15. Article 5. A verification monitoring program confirmed VOC contamination along the entire downgradient edge of the landfill extending laterally as far as 1,000 feet downgradient of the edge of the landfill. A Corrective Action Program was approved by the Board for a Groundwater extraction and treatment system to remediate volatile organic compounds detected in ground water beneath the landfill. Pumped ground water will be treated by passing it through an air stripper. The system is designed to treat approximately 305 gallons per minute, which will be discharged to the north branch of the south fork of Littlejohn Creek. Compliance with this Monitoring and Reporting Program, and with the companion Standard Provisions and Reporting Requirements, is ordered by Waste Discharge Requirements Order No. 94- . Failure to comply with this Program, or with the Standard Provision and Reporting Requirements, constitutes noncompliance with the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) and with the Water Code, which can result in the imposition of civil monetary liability. The Discharger shall report monitoring data and information as required in this Monitoring and Reporting Program and as required in the Standard Provisions and Reporting Requirements. Reports which do not comply with the required format will be REJECTED and the Discharger shall be deemed to be in noncompliance with the WDRs. In reporting the monitoring data required by this program, the Discharger shall arrange the data in tabular form so that the date, the constituents, the concentrations, and the units are readily discernible. The data shall be summarized in such a manner so as to illustrate clearly the compliance with waste discharge requirements or the lack thereof. A short discussion of the monitoring results, including notations of any water quality violations, shall precede the tabular summaries.
