a <br /> WASTE DISCHARGE REQ-U- —"MENTS ORDER NO. 5-00-226 -2- <br /> COUNTY OF SAN JOAQUIN DEPT. OF PUBLIC WORKS <br /> COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. 44 <br /> CASTELLO ESTATES AKA APRICOT ACRES <br /> SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> Analvte Units 3 Sept. 1999 16 Sept. 1999 <br /> Total Hardness mg/l 260 260 <br /> Nitrate as Nitrate mg/l 21 21 <br /> Specific Conductance umhos/cm 930 910 <br /> Total Dissolved Solids mg/l 580 610 <br /> Sodium mg/1 96 91 <br /> Chloride mg/l 94 94 <br /> 8. The RWD states that the anticipated average influent wastewater strength is anticipated to <br /> be: <br /> Constituent Units Concentration Daily Load Ratel <br /> BODS mg/1 250 63 lbs/day <br /> Total Suspended Solids mg/l 225 561bs/day <br /> Total Nitrogen mg/l 45 11 lbs/day <br /> 1 Load rate calculated at a flow rate of 30,000 gal/day. <br /> 9. Sewage will be conveyed from the residences to the treatment plant through an eight inch <br /> diameter, rubber gasketed, gravity collection system. <br /> 10. Treatment consists of a complete mix, nitrification/denitification, modified batch process. <br /> Disinfection will be accomplished using ozone injection. Treated wastewater will be <br /> discharged to computer controlled subsurface emitters. The plant layout and leachfield <br /> location is presented in Attachments B 1 and B2, which are attached hereto and made part <br /> of the Order by reference. <br /> 11. The package plant units consist of a 20 feet deep influent pump station (wet well), three <br /> 4,000-gallon equalization tanks, an aeration chamber, a clarifier chamber(which will <br /> return activated sludge to the aeration chamber), an ozone disinfection chamber, two sand <br /> filters (which will backflush to the equalization system), and the subsurface emitters. <br /> 12. The treatment plant is rated for a total daily flow of 30,000 gpd. The plant is designed to <br /> denitrify and disinfect the wastewater prior to disposal. An emergency generator will <br /> provide electrical power in the event of electrical power outages. <br /> 13. Waste sludge generated from the treatment plant will be aerobically digested in above <br /> ground tanks. <br /> 14. Effluent from the treatment plant will be discharged to a disposal area located along the <br /> southeast border of the development. Subsurface emitters will be buried approximately <br /> one foot below the surface. Discharge will be controlled by a set of moisture sensors <br /> placed in the disposal area. The moisture sensors and the computer controls will pulse the <br /> application of wastewater to prevent excessive moisture in the disposal area. <br />
