The concentration of the exceedance is considered a significant violation and is subject <br /> to a minimum mandatory penalty as specified in California Water Code Section 13385 (h)(1) and <br /> (h)(2). <br /> Use of sodium hypochlorite to control iron bacteria fouling of the treatment system and a sequestrian <br /> agent to prevent scaling and foaming within the air stripper have not been discussed with or approved <br /> by the Regional Board. The General Order Permit does not cover the use of these chemicals. It is <br /> unclear if these chemicals diminish the effectiveness of the carbon filters or alter effluent quality. I <br />
