Based on these data, average annual net evaporation at the facility is 51 .73 inches. 26. The 1000-year, 24 hour precipitation event for the facility is 4.89 inches, as calculated by Rainfall Depth duration frequency for California, 1982. 27. The 100-year, seasonal precipitation for the facility is 31.81 inches, as calculated by Rainfall Depth duration frequency for California, 1982. 28.

DESIGN OF THE EQUALIZATION/EMERGENCY STORAGE BASIN 31 . The Discharger proposes to use a double-liner system for containment of 'designated wastes ' in the EESB. The design of this system consists of a 60 mil high density polyethylene inner liner and a 40 mil high density polyethylene outer liner with an intervening leachate collection and removal system (LCRS) . 32. A registered civil engineer will certify that EESB at this facility meets the construction or prescriptive standards and performance goals of Subchapter 15, except for the engineered alternative describe in Finding 33 below, which will be certified to be consistent with the performance goal addressed by the construction or prescriptive standard, to which it is an alternative, and affords equivalent protection against water quality impairment.
