The Plant will continue to <br /> discharge treated wastewater to Dredger Cut, Tributary to White Slough. The existing discharge is <br /> governed by Waste Discharge Requirements Order No. 93-030(NPDES No. CA0079243). <br /> The beneficial uses of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, downstream of the discharge include <br /> municipal, industrial, and agricultural supply; body contact and noncontact water recreation; esthetic <br /> enjoyment; navigation; and preservation and enhancement of fish, wildlife and other aquatic resources. <br /> The Order will permit Lodi to discharge up to 7.0 million gallons of treated wastewater per day to <br /> Dredger Cut. The permit proposes effluent limits for pollutants that may be discharged at levels that will <br /> cause or have the reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an in-stream excursion above a narrative <br /> or numerical water quality standard. The Discharger is not currently able to meet these effluent limits. <br /> Therefore, the Board will also-consider issuance of an Order pursuant to Section 13301 of the California <br /> Water Code requiring the City of Lodi,White Slough Water pollution Control Plant, to cease and desist <br /> from discharging waste in violation of waste discharge requirements. <br /> Additionally, the permit proposes a time schedule to meet more stringent disinfection requirements to <br /> protect public health from body contact water recreation and agricultural use of the receiving water. <br /> A public hearing concerning this matter will be held at the next Board meeting scheduled as follows: <br /> DATE: 28 January 2000 <br /> TRAE: 9:00 a.m. <br /> PLACE: Sacramento Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board <br /> 3443 Routier Road, Suite A <br /> Sacramento, CA 95827 <br /> Phone (916)255-3000 <br /> Tentative Waste Discharge Requirements were issued on 5 November 1999.
