in the creek are well down now and the incident was caused by a <br /> combined high rainfall event and increased releases from the upstream <br /> reservoir. <br /> ■ Upstream flood control dams released flows several times in anticipation <br /> of storm cells moving through Central California. These storm <br /> precipitations and upstream flows affected the Forward Landfill. <br /> On March 2, 2005, the RWQCB issued a NOV to the Forward Landfill Inc. <br /> This NOV requires Forward Landfill Inc. to do the following: <br /> ■ Forward Landfill Inc. should immediately submit a plan, no later than <br /> March 10, 2005 and undertake actions to collect and control the current <br /> release. Work to comply with this request was completed. <br /> ■ Forward Landfill Inc. should submit a plan to prevent infiltration and <br /> protect the foot of the landfill from overflow at Little Johns Creek by May <br /> 15, 2005. <br /> In response to the NOV letter, Forward Landfill Inc. engineering staff met with <br /> the RWQCB on April 22, 2005, to review the conditions noted in the NOV and <br /> discuss the activities already completed as well as partial closure activities. <br /> The RWQCB generally agreed that the proposed activities would meet the <br /> requirements of the NOV. <br /> In order to mitigate the seep area only a portion of the Stage I area requires <br /> closure at this time. Therefore Stage I has been divided into two areas Stage <br /> IA and Stage IB (see Figure 1). In response to the NOV, Stage IA will be <br /> closed as presented in this PFCPCMP. Stage IB will be closed as originally <br /> planned in the 2003 Plan in 2006. <br /> In addition, Forward Landfill Inc. has also proposed utilization of an <br /> alternative final cover design using an evapotranspiration type cap consisting <br /> of selected on-site materials. In concept, the RWQCB agreed to consider <br /> this type of alternative final cover design. Forward Landfill Inc. and their <br /> consultant made a presentation to the RWQCB on May 20, 2005 to provide <br /> information on the proposed alternative final cover.
