IDENTIFIED CONCERNS - ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDED ACTIONS <br /> INTRODUCTION <br /> • The specific concerns identified by Regional Board and San <br /> Joaquin County Health representatives are discussed in this <br /> Section. These concerns are discussed in the order presented in <br /> the Inspection Report under the following headings : <br /> • 1 . Cooling Water Discharge <br /> 2. Oil Heating Condensate Discharge <br /> 3. Press Condensate Discharge (Dopaco) <br /> 4. Drum Storage Area (Dopaco) <br /> 5 . Fugitive Connections to Storm Drains <br /> 6 . Waste and Pulped Paper Discharge <br /> • 7 . Solid Waste Characterization <br /> COOLING WATER DISCHARGE <br /> System Description <br /> • <br /> The cooling water system at the Gold Bond plant consists of five <br /> supply wells (Nos. 1 , 5, 7, 9 , and 10 ) (See Figure 2) which <br /> deliver water to the "cold side" reservoir; two vertical turbine <br /> pumps which pump the cold water through the turbine condenser <br /> tubes to the No. 1 and No. 2 "hot side" reservoirs; piping from <br /> • the condensers to the slough for discharge of water in excess of <br /> the inplant requirements ; and piping from the "hot side" <br /> reservoir to the paper mill for inplant use. Average supply from <br /> the wells is normally 4 mgd; average discharge to McDougald <br /> Slough ranges from 0.8 to 1.4 mgd. <br /> • Chlorine and two polymers are added to the cooling water in the <br /> "cold side" reservoir to control algae and scale. Typical <br /> chlorine and polymer dosages are 3 to 4 mg/l . <br /> In accordance with Board Order No. 79-186; Gold Bold performs <br /> monthly sampling of the following parameters in the cooling water <br /> • discharge: <br /> Daily <br /> Discharge rate <br /> • Weekly Grab <br /> pH <br /> Temperature <br /> TDS <br /> TSS <br /> • COD <br /> Chlorine residual <br /> 5 <br /> • <br />
