The site inspection was a follow up to staff's fall 2006 site <br /> inspection. The purpose of the inspection was to observe the conditions of the Title 27 Class <br /> II Surface Impoundments, the spray fields, and the newly installed tailwater and erosion <br /> controls. <br /> The Title 27 Class II Surface Impoundments were in good operating order based on a visual <br /> inspection. The Discharger has installed several, fixed tailwater boxes fitted with pumps to <br /> return wastewater to the Reservoir. At the time of the inspection, the boxes were maintained. <br /> Erosion due to spray application practices continues to cause severe damage to Musco fields. <br /> The Discharger has installed runoff control measures (i.e. straw waddle) along contours of <br /> Field 55 west and Field 95. The Discharger has made some progress in the uplands area to <br /> control runoff and sedimentation, however, runoff control measures were not installed on the <br /> other spray application fields. The Discharger must continue to improve runoff conditions <br /> associated with all spray application fields. <br /> If you have any questions please call me at (916) 464-4737. <br /> Todd A. el Frate <br /> Engineering Geologist <br /> Waste Discharge to Land Unit <br /> Lower San Joaquin River Watershed <br /> Enclosure(s) Inspection Report <br /> cc,.
