Water Quality Monitoring Report Forward landfill capacity and in compliance with regulations. The LFG collection and combustion system is upgraded on a routine basis to optimize LFG collection. The potential for LFG impacts on the unsaturated zone are therefore being mitigated through source control measures. If it is determined that additional mitigation is needed, or if impacts are observed, the LFG collection system can be increased to extract additional LFG. In conclusion, the existing system is optimized to maintain continued compliance with both State and Federal Air standards, but if site conditions change, or impacts are observed, the current system has back up capacity to maintain compliance and continue or increase source control measures, as needed. 1.6 Cannery Waste Land Application Monitoring Cannery waste and land application monitoring (CWLAM) and groundwater analytical results for the CWLAIVI detection monitoring system are presented in Section 3.1.6. Facility Inspection logs, weekly total mass nitrogen application, and the annual land application monitoring summary are presented in Appendix D. The nutrient management plan will be submitted under separate cover. Composite waste sample analytical results for the CWLAM are presented in Appendix F. 10 2.1 Water Quality Monitoring 2.1.1 Sampling and Laboratory Analyses During the fourth quarter 2015, Del -Tech Geotechnical Support Services (Del -Tech) measured depth -to -water (DTW) from all Forward Unit wells on November 16, 2015. Samples were collected from all Forward Unit wells, and domestic well DW -9690, between November 16 and 18, 2015. During the monitoring period, surface water monitoring stations and pan lysimeters were reported dry and there was an insufficient volume of soil -pore liquid (4 mL) for collection of samples from suction lysimeters. The compost facility retention basin and leachate pond were sampled on November 19, 2015. Samples were collected by Del -Tech from each sample point containing sufficient liquid and submitted to BC Laboratories (BC) of Bakersfield, California, a state certified laboratory under contract to Forward. The fourth quarter 2015 samples were analyzed for the monitoring parameters stipulated in RWQCB Order No. 115-2014-0006. Table 2-1 summarizes site monitoring parameters, analytical methods, and monitoring frequency. Water quality samples were also analyzed in the field for oxygen reduction potential (ORP), turbidity, temperature, specific conductance, and pH and recorded on well data sheets. The groundwater monitoring wells and leachate monitoring points were sampled in accordance with the sampling and analysis plan detailed in Appendix E. The well data sheets, raw laboratory data, certificates of analyses, and chain -of -custody M:\ 2015.0014\FA_4Q15.docx 5 1/29/2016, Rev. 0
