Samples for dissolved oxygen, sulfide, and pH shall be collected at a depth of 1-2 feet below the pond surface. The Discharger shall notify staff within 24 hours if the freeboard in either pond is less than two feet. Pond monitoring shall include at least the following. Constituents Units Tvoe of Sample Sampling Frequency Reporting Frequency Freeboard Feet Measurement Daily Monthly Dissolved Oxygen mg/l Grab Daily Monthly Dissolved Sulfide mg/l Grab Daily Monthly pH Std. Grab Daily Monthly Pond Condition' NA Observation Daily Monthly Pond condition monitoring shall include daily determination of berm condition,wastewater overflows,and odor conditions(none, slight,moderate,strong). LAND APPLICATION AREA MONITORING Application of wastewater to the land application area shall be monitored to prevent overloading the area with wastewater constituents, which can cause objectionable odors and/or groundwater degradation. The following parameters shall be calculated and reported in the monthly monitoring reports. By 1 October 2002, the Discharger shall install a sufficient number of meters to continuously monitor the flow out of the settling/storage ponds to the land application areas. No wastewater shall be applied without metering. If portable pumps are used to discharge wastewater to the land application area or a storage pond, additional meters shall be installed at every discharge point.
