R5-2013-0800, OXYCHEM STOCKTON, <br /> 1904 CHARTER WAY, STOCKTON, SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> Glenn Springs Holdings (OxyChem), on behalf of Occidental Chemical Company, J.R. Simplot <br /> Company, and Puregro Company, is monitoring the effectiveness of groundwater remediation at <br /> its former agricultural chemical retail facility at 1904 Charter Way. In a 3 December 2012 letter, <br /> California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region (Central Valley Water <br /> Board) staff transmitted a draft monitoring and reporting program (MRP) to o . On comments <br /> 20 December 2012, your consultant, Mr. Matt Sutton of The Source Group, <br /> on the draft MRP, expressing the following two concerns. <br /> 1. Some of the monitoring wells listed in the draft MRP are scheduled to be destroyed in 2013, <br /> and he is concerned that there will be a continued obligation to monitor these destroyed <br /> wells. <br /> 2. The draft MRP makes reference to additional groundwater monitoring that OxyChem is <br /> conducting pursuant to Waste Discharge Requirements. These Waste Discharge <br /> Requirements could be rescinded soon, and he is concerned that there will be a continued <br /> obligation to conduct sampling pursuant to the Waste Discharge Requirements after they <br /> have been rescinded. <br /> To address these concerns, Central Valley Water Board staff added language in the MRP <br /> acknowledging that some wells will be destroyed, and once removed, will not be subject to <br /> monitoring. In regards to the Waste Discharge Requirements Monitoring and Reporting <br /> Program (WDRs), the WDRs are independent of this Monitoring and Reporting Program, and <br /> mention of the WDRs in this MRP does not obligate OxyChem to continue WDR monitoring <br /> once they have been rescinded. In addition, Central Valley Water Board staff made minor <br /> revisions to enhance clarity in Items 1 and 2 of the Introduction, and to Items 9 and 10 of the <br /> Reporting Specifications. <br /> These changes have been incorporated into Monitoring and Reporting Program No. R5-2013- <br /> 0800, which is attached and is currently in effect. Previous MRP No. R5-2002-0831 is <br /> rescinded. Thank you for working with Central Valley Water Board staff to reduce the extent of <br /> groundwater contaminants, which enabled staff to reduce the scope and frequency of <br /> KARL E.
