1,0 INTRODUCTION
<br /> On behalf of Forward Inc. (Forward), this report presents water quality monitoring data
<br /> generated during the second quarter 2011 monitoring period for the For-ward Landfill in
<br /> San Joaquin County, California. Monitoring was performed in accordance with
<br /> requirements listed in the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board
<br /> (RWQCB) Order No. R5-2003-0049. For reporting purposes the water quality
<br /> monitoring network consists of two units: the Forward Unit and the Austin Unit. Section
<br /> I provides a description of the monitoring network, site inspections, and standard
<br /> observations; Sections 2 and 3 include discussions of water quality data for the Forward
<br /> and Austin Units, respectively.
<br /> 1.1 MONITORING NET
<br /> The water quality monitoring network at the Forward Unit currently includes 15
<br /> groundwater monitoring wells (five of which are dual depth well pairs), one domestic
<br /> well,two surface water monitoring stations, and 17 lysimeters (Figure 1-1). Monitoring
<br /> wells at the Forward Unit have been constructed to monitor groundwater at the facility as
<br /> follows:

<br /> The monitoring network at the Austin Unit currently includes 29 groundwater monitoring
<br /> wells, two domestic wells, and two surface water monitoring stations (Figure 1-1). Wells
<br /> AMW-5R and AMW-I 9BR were constructed to replace wells AMW-5 and AMW-1913,
<br /> which were abandoned. In addition, wells AMW-13, AMW-1313,AMW-1813, AMW-21,
<br /> AMW-21 S, AMW-22, AMW-22S, AMW-23, AMW-23 S, AMW-24, AMW-25,
<br /> AMW-26, AMW-28, AMW-29, and AMW-30 were constructed as part of an on-going
<br /> evaluation monitoring program (EMP) but are not monitored under this program. The
<br /> detection monitoring program (DMP) wells are used to detect for a potential release from
<br /> the landfill, while the corrective action program (CAP) wells are used to evaluate changes
<br /> in water quality caused by releases from the landfill and by subsequent corrective action
<br /> measures. Monitoring points at the Austin Unit have been constructed to monitor the
<br /> groundwater/surface water at the facility as follows:
