WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS ORDER NO. R5-2010-0016 -19- SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS NORTH COUNTY LANDFILL SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY Provision E.25.c requires that the Discharger provide an updated cost estimate, as necessary under these WDRs, for corrective action, while Provision H.5.c requires that the Discharger provide and maintain updated F/As to the CIWMB in the amount of the updated cost estimate, as approved by the Regional Water Board. Provision G.11 further requires that initially, and at least every five years thereafter, the Discharger submit a report to the Regional Water Board’s Executive Officer as to the ongoing viability of F/A instruments and, on an annual basis, evidence of acceptance by the CIWMB of its required annual demonstration under Title 27. CEQA AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS 70. The action to revise the WDRs is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000, et seq.), in accordance with Title 14, CCR Section 15301 for existing facilities. 71. The San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors certified a final environmental impact report (EIR) addressing plans for vertical expansion of the landfill (San Joaquin County Department of Public Works, Final Environmental Impact Report for North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill, prepared by Jones & Stokes; State Clearinghouse No. 2006062113) on 5 December 2006. The San Joaquin County Clerk filed a Notice of Determination on 11 December 2006 in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) and CEQA guidelines (14 CCR Section 15000 et seq.). The report found that the vertical expansion project would not have a significant impact on landfill waste containment facilities and controls nor on water quality provided compliance with applicable state and federal regulations and permit requirements is maintained (i.e., Subtitle D, Title 27, NPDES storm water, landfill WDRs). These WDRs implement such regulations. See Finding 74. 72. Section 13267(b) of California Water Code provides that: “In conducting an investigation specified in subdivision (a), the Regional Water Board may require that any person who has discharged, discharges, or is suspected of discharging, or who proposed to discharge within its region, or any citizen or domiciliary, or political agency or entity of this state who had discharged, discharges, or is suspected of discharging, or who proposed to discharge waste outside of its region that could affect the quality of the waters of the state within its region shall furnish, under penalty of perjury, technical or monitoring program reports which the Regional Water Board requires. The burden, including costs of these reports, shall bear a reasonable relationship to the need for the reports and the benefits to be obtained from the reports.” The monitoring and reporting program required by this Order (MRP No. R5-2010-0016, attached) is necessary to assure compliance with these waste discharge requirements. The Discharger owns and operates the facility that discharges the waste subject to this Order.
