� �.:�. � , ♦ , . � • � ,.. � 1. ' <br />On August 17, 1994, the extraction and treatment facility was <br />completed for testing. From the on -set, problems arose in the <br />various components and experienced many, many shutdowns. To date, <br />over 23,000,000 gallons were treated through the system with very <br />good results in removing the volatile organic compounds. See <br />attached laboratory test results. <br />Some of the problems incurred with the treatment plant are as <br />follows: <br />1. Water scaling of the plastic media and discharge piping. <br />2. Adjustment of the acid metering pump. <br />3. Failure of both pumps operating at the same time due to false <br />readings on the groundwater level equipment. <br />4. Synchronizing all three water flow meters. <br />5. Acid vapor corroding the adjacent equipment and conduits. <br />6. Under sized electrical circuit breakers and wiring. <br />7. Blower motor internal wiring defective. <br />8. Additionally high water level in Little Johns Creek during the <br />winter month automatically shuts down the treatment plant per <br />design. <br />The third quarterly monitoring report, CRWQCB Order No. 92-143 - <br />Waste Discharge Requirements (NPDES No. CA0082911) prepared by <br />RESNA Industries, Inc. was mistakenly mailed back to our <br />consultant's office instead of to you. <br />A N o-1 GQ P <br />
