The site has its own wastewater treatment plant and <br /> land discharge area for the treated effluent. <br /> tThe following information was obtained from a report dated September 18, 2001 titled <br /> "Additional Information for the Report of Waste Discharge" by Bonneau Dickson of <br /> Berkley, California. <br /> Potable water for the CNP plant is obtained from the City of Lathrop water system. The <br /> plant uses the water in the manufacturing of the following: <br /> ♦ rice milk ♦ soy milk <br /> ♦ flavored teas ♦ cream soups <br /> Wastewater is generated throughout the plant primarily from wet mill maceration of <br /> vegetables, surface spillage, clean in place solution, and evaporates. The wastewater is <br /> collected and pretreated by screening, pH adjustment, dissolved air flotation, biological <br /> treatment (trickling filter), coagulation and flocculation in the lamella separator. <br /> Wastewater is pumped to the Manteca Wastewater Treatment Plant, hauled offsite, or <br /> discharged to the land. <br /> 2.3 GENERAL GEOLOGIC AND HYDROLOGIC SETTING <br /> The site lies within the Great Valley Geomorphic Province of California. The valley is <br /> ' approximately 400 miles long and averages about 50 miles wide, and comprises about <br /> 20,000 square miles. The valley has been filled with a thick sequence of marine and <br /> non-marine sediments from the late Jurassic to Holocene. The uppermost stratum of <br /> the Great Valley represents, for the most part, the alluvial, flood, and delta plains of two <br /> major rivers (Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers) and their tributaries. <br /> The valley deposits are derived from the Coast Ranges to the west and the Sierra <br /> Nevada to the east. Granitic and metamorphic rocks outcrop along the eastern and <br /> southeastern flanks of the valley. Marine sedimentary rocks outcrop along most of the <br /> 101486.5/ST012R0588 Page 4 of 14 July 31, 2012 <br /> Copyright 2012 Kleinfelder <br />
