Comments on Draft NOice and order Page 2 <br /> Austin Road Landfill Site, 39-AA-0001 <br /> liquids/slurries is not allowable. The continued disposal of <br /> condensate, a liquid waste, will therefore be prohibited. If this <br /> enforcement alternative is pursued, please work closely with the <br /> operator, generator, and Board Permit staff to determine a <br /> compliance schedule that will be in conjunction with the permit <br /> revision process. Also, if this enforcement alternative is <br /> pursued, the RDSI should discuss the disposal procedures for <br /> landfill gas condensate as well as the other information as noted <br /> on page 4 of Permit staff 's 7/17/91 comments. <br /> Another method of prohibiting the continued disposal of condensate <br /> might be to work with the Regional Water Quality Control Board and <br /> the site's Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) . As the governing <br /> 1983 SWFP does not address the disposal of condensate, WDR Order" <br /> No. 90-122 is a conditioning document to be used in the preparation <br /> of a revised SWFP. It appears that the WDRs have an inconsistency. <br /> Under Prohibitions, the discharge of 'designated waste' at this <br /> facility is prohibited (A. 1) and the discharge of liquid waste to <br /> the landfill is prohibited (A. 2) . These same WDRs note that return <br /> condensate (a liquid and potentially a hazardous/designated waste) <br /> is discharged to the landfill under separate WDRs Order No. 88-208. <br /> Further, Board staff observed what appears to be a condensate trap <br /> located in native soil just outside the security fence of the power <br /> plant. This appears to be a violation of 23 CCR 2511 (e) (2) <br /> requiring condensate to be returned to the waste management unit <br /> from which it came, or to be discharged to a different unit with a <br /> leachate collection and removal system. <br /> As always, this office is available to assist you.
