N � <br /> WASTE DISPOSAL PLAN <br /> Liquid Winery Waste <br /> We understand that the standard for a small winery is roughly 1 gal of waste water generated for <br /> each gallon of wine produced. Therefore, we should produce in the neighborhood of 3500 <br /> gallons of waste water during the wine making process. <br /> Following several discussions with Timothy O'Brien of the California Regional Water Quality <br /> Control Board, we have concluded that the best solution to the disposal of winery waste water is <br /> to hold the water in an above ground tank and then haul the waste water to a facility that will <br /> accept the waste water. <br /> We have located a 1200 gallon tank mounted on a truck. Based on the anticipated 3500 gallons <br /> of winery waste water, we will need to haul 3 tank loads to a waste water disposal facility per <br /> year. Our options are to deliver the wastewater to the City of Lodi facility or to one of the local <br /> wineries that are permitted to accept wastewater. <br /> We understand that we will not be given final approval until a letter is presented from a party <br /> that will accept the wastewater. <br /> Grape Pumice (Skins and Seeds) <br /> Timothy O'Brien of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board has told me that the <br /> preferred acceptable way of disposing of grape pumice, is to spread it in the vineyard and disc it <br /> into the ground. We think that is a good plan and so will follow his recommendation. <br /> Other Waste Materials <br /> All other waste materials will be hauled to the County dump on Harney Lane. <br /> 334308-1 <br />
