Interim <br /> river velocity monitoring will be conducted by field measurement in accordance with an <br /> approved work plan required by Provision 7 of revised Order No 97-115. River velocity <br /> monitoring is not necessary when river flow is above 3000 cfs (as measured at Vernalis) or <br /> river velocity is above 2.6 feet/sec. Report these values as above 3000 cfs or above 2.0 ft/sec. <br /> In conducting the receiving water sampling, a log shall be kept of the receiving water conditions <br /> throughout the reach bounded by Stations R-1 and R-2. Attention shall be given to the presence or <br /> absence of: <br /> a. Floating or suspended matter <br /> b. Discoloration <br /> c. Bottom deposits <br /> d. Aquatic life <br /> Notes on receiving water conditions shall be summarized in the monitoring report. <br /> THREE SPECIES CHRONIC TOXICITY MONITORING <br /> Chronic toxicity monitoring shall be conducted to determine whether the effluent is contributing toxicity <br /> to the River. The testing shall be conducted as specified in EPA 600-4-91-002. Chronic toxicity <br /> samples shall be collected at the discharge of the Manteca Wastewater Treatment Plant prior to its <br /> entering the River. Twenty-four hour composite samples shall be representative of the volume and <br /> quality of the discharge. Time of sample collection shall be recorded. Chronic toxicity monitoring shall <br /> include the following: <br />
