1.0 INTRODUCTION
<br /> On behalf of Forward Inc. (Forward), this report presents water quality monitoring data
<br /> generated during the first quarter 2013 monitoring period for the Forward Landfill in San
<br /> Joaquin County, California. In addition, the analytical results for the five-year
<br /> constituents of concern (COC)monitoring event are also included in this report.
<br /> Monitoring was performed in accordance with requirements listed in the Central Valley
<br /> Regional Water Quality Control Board(RWQCB) Order No. R5-2003-0049. For
<br /> reporting purposes,the water quality monitoring network consists of two units: the
<br /> Forward Unit and the Austin Unit. Section 1 provides a description of the monitoring
<br /> network, site inspections, and standard observations; Sections 2 and 3 include discussions
<br /> of water quality data for the Forward and Austin Units, respectively.
<br /> 1.1 MONITORING NETWORK
<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 171ysimeters (Figure 1-1). Monitoring
<br /> wells at the Forward Unit have been constructed to monitor groundwater at the facility as
<br /> follows:

<br /> WMW-D-01S, WMW-D-02
<br /> Note: *-Piezometers are sampled in the event that the"A"well in the dual depth well pairs is dry.
<br /> As presented on the following table,the monitoring network at the Austin Unit currently
<br /> includes 33 groundwater monitoring wells, two domestic wells, and two surface water
<br /> monitoring stations (Figure 1-1). The detection monitoring program (DMP) wells are
<br /> used to detect for a potential release from the landfill, while the corrective action program
<br /> (CAP)wells are used to evaluate changes in water quality and the effectiveness of the
<br /> corrective action measures. Of note, the 19 evaluation monitoring program (EMP) wells
<br /> were constructed as part of an on-going investigation and are not monitored under this
<br /> program. Monitoring points at the Austin Unit have been constructed to monitor the
<br /> groundwater/surface water at the facility as follows:
