WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREDTS ORDER NO. 9 <br /> SUTTER HOME WINERY <br /> LODI FACILITY, SAN.IOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> 2. Neither the treatment nor the discharge shall cause a nuisance or condition of pollution as defined <br /> by the California Water Code, Section 13050. <br /> 3. No waste constituent shall be released or discharged, or placed where it will be released or <br /> discharged, in a concentration or in a mass that causes violation of the Groundwater Limitation, <br /> Section F. <br /> 4. Objectionable odors originating at this facility shall not be perceivable beyond the limits of the <br /> property owned by the Discharger. <br /> 5. As a means of discerning compliance with Discharge Specification No. B.4, the dissolved oxygen <br /> content of any pond shall not be less than 1.0 mg/L at any time, as measured at a point at as far as <br /> practical from the pond inlet and within one foot of the water surface. <br /> 6. The Discharger shall operate all systems and equipment to maximize treatment of wastewater and <br /> optimize the quality of the discharge. <br /> 7. All ponds shall be managed to prevent breeding of mosquitoes..In particular, <br /> a. An erosion control program should assure that small coves and irregularities are not created <br /> around the perimeter of the water surface. <br /> b. Weeds shall be minimized through control of water depth, harvesting, or herbicides. <br /> c. Dead algae, vegetation, and debris shall not accumulate on the water surface. <br /> 8. The Discharger's wastewater treatment system shall be designed, constructed, operated, and <br /> r maintained to prevent inundation or washout due to floods with a 100-year return frequency. <br /> Because the land application area is within the 100-year flood plain, the treatment system shall <br /> have sufficient capacity to store all wastewater when the land application area is flooded. <br /> 9. No physical connection shall exist between wastewater piping and any domestic water supply or <br />' other domestic/industrial supply well without an air gap or approved reduced pressure device. <br /> 10. Public contact with wastewater shall be precluded through such means as fences, signs, and <br /> irrigation management practices.

The ponds shall not have a pH less than 6.5 or greater than 8.5. <br /> 12. Freeboard in each pond shall never be less than two feet (measured vertically from the lowest <br /> point of the berm). # <br /> 13. The wastewater treatment system shall have sufficient capacity to accommodate wastewater flow, <br /> groundwater infiltration, seasonal precipitation, and storage when the land application area is <br /> flooded. Design seasonal precipitation shall be based on total annual precipitation using a return <br /> period of 100 years, distributed monthly in accordance with historical rainfall patterns. <br /> CAPmjcct FileslSites\Sutter H0m6Sat¢rH0meWDR-3,doc <br />
