If leachate is detected in a previously dry sump, the discharger shall verbally notify Central Valley Water Board staff within seven days and shall immediately sample and test the leachate for Field and Monitoring Parameters listed in Table III. Leachate samples from the surface impoundments (Forward Pond and Austin Pond) shall be collected for electrical conductivity, pH, Monitoring Parameters, and 5 -year Constituents of Concern in accordance with the frequencies listed in Table III. Response: The 3rd paragraph has been changed to read as follows: "All LCRS sumps shall be inspected monthly for the presence of leachate, and total flow and flow rate shall be recorded in accordance with the frequencies listed in Table III. If leachate is detected in a previously dry sump, the Discharger shall verbally notify Central Valley Water Board staff within seven days and shall immediately sample and test the leachate in the sump for Field and Monitoring Parameters listed in Table III. Leachate in the LCRS sumps shall be sampled for all parameters and constituents in accordance with the frequencies listed in Table III. All LCRS sumps shall be analyzed for the 5 -year COCs specified in Table III every five years, beginning again in 2018." Comment 16: Page 7, Item A.5 — Suggest changing "Table II" to Table VI.

Surface impoundment sumps shall be inspected monthly for the presence of liquid. If liquid is detected, a sample shall be analyzed for the parameters in Table III and reported quarterly.
