Chesney Consulting <br /> January 10, 2023 <br /> San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department(EHD) <br /> Mr. Steven Shih, REHS, Program Coordinator <br /> 1868 East Hazelton Ave. <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 <br /> Dear Steven; <br /> Regarding our conversations about the qualifications of operating, monitoring and/or testing of <br /> wastewater treatment plants, also known as Package Treatment Plants (PTP) in non-sewered <br /> areas, I have discovered the following: <br /> In reviewing the requirements of a Wastewater Operator Certification Program (WWOCP)/ <br /> Wastewater Treatment Plant Classification, it appears in Section 13626 of the Water Code that <br /> the Code gives the W WOCP responsibility of classifying a treatment plant as 1.) A Publically <br /> Operated Treatment Works (POTW), 2.) Private plants regulated by the Public Utilities <br /> Commission (PUC), or 3.) Issued a Waste Discharge Requirement(WDR) by a Regional Board. <br /> The package treatment plants that I have been associated within San Joaquin County are all <br /> private and not a POTW,not regulated by the PUC, nor under WDRs. Therefore, since I have <br /> never been involved in any of the three classifications listed, I cannot become classified. <br /> As you know, I have been involved with primary PTPs such as Orenco Advantex, MicroSepTec, <br /> Norweco systems, et al. <br /> As a CA Registered Civil Engineer,you requested that I provide my RCE license to document <br /> my duties as a Professional Engineer when working with any PTP within San Joaquin County. <br /> This license is attached. <br /> Thank you for your attention to this matter, and please contact me if there should be any <br /> questions. <br /> Respectfully submitted, froleS V' <br /> P1� y1. l.f�4� <br /> w No,75479 rn <br /> Don C sney, PE <br /> Encl: RCE License ofattaa` <br /> P.O.Box 3794 13 Turlock, CA 95381 ❑ 209.402.1652 ❑ ddchesney(a�charter.net <br />
