r) <br /> Pacyc 2 <br /> F; <br /> SUMMARY OF ANIMAL WASTE MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS <br /> (From California Code of Regulations, Subdivision 1, Chapter 7, Subchapter 2) <br /> F <br /> General Standards For Surface Water <br /> The discharger shall prevent animals at a confined animal facility from entering any surface water within the confined area. <br /> Wastewater Management <br /> (a) Design Storm (for Run-On/Run-Off Control) - Confined animal facilities shall be designed and constructed to retain <br /> all facility wastewater generated,together with all prescription on,and drainage through,manured areas during a 25-year, <br /> 24-hour storm. <br /> (b) Manured Area Run-On Exclusion-All precipitation and surface drainage outside of manured areas including that <br /> g g <br /> collected from roofed areas,and runoff from tributary areas during the storm events described in part(a),shall be diverted <br /> away from manured areas,unless such drainage is fully retained. RWQCSs can waive application of such requirements only <br /> in specific instances where upstream land use changes have altered surface drainage patterns such that retention of flood flows <br /> is not feasible. <br /> (c) Design Storm(for Flood Protection) <br /> 1 <br /> 1 (1) Retention ponds and manured areas at confined animal facilities in operation on or after November 27, 1984,shall <br /> be protected from inundation or washout by overflow from any stream channel during 20-year peak stream flows. <br /> (2) Existing facilities that were in operation on-or-before November 27, 1984 and that are protected against 100-year <br /> peak stream flows must continue to provide such protection. Facilities,or portions thereof,which begin operating after <br /> November 27, 1984 shall be protected against 100-year peak stream flows. <br /> 4 ti (3) The determination of peak stream flows shall be from data provided by a recognized federal,state,local,or other <br /> agency. <br /> (d) Retention Pond Design -Retention ponds shall be lined with,or underlain by,soils which contain at least 10 percent <br /> clay and not more than 10 percent gravel or be lined with artificial materials of equivalent impermeability. <br /> (e) Discharge To Disposal/Use Fields-The RWQCB shall allow the discharge of facility wastewater and of collected <br /> precipitation and drainage waters to use or disposal fields only if such discharge is in accordance with the regulations in the <br /> l following section titled"Use or Disposal Field Management". Other allowable discharge is to wastewater treatment facilities <br /> approved by the RWQCB. <br /> FUse or Disposal Field Management <br /> (a) Reasonable Soil Amendment Rate-Application of manure and wastewater to disposal fields or crap lands shall be at <br /> F rates which are reasonable for the crop,soil,climate,special local situations,management system,and type of manure. <br /> (b) Run-Off&Percolation- Discharges of facility wastewater to disposal fields shall not result in surface runoff from <br /> r disposal fields and shall be managed to minimize percolation to ground water. <br /> i <br /> Management of Manured Areas <br /> Fj� Manured areas shall be managed to minimize infiltration of water into underlying soils.. <br /> F, <br /> FS-42B DOC <br /> r <br /> F <br /> P <br />
