All water from the FRRF is held in the lined impoundment and then sampled and analyzed in <br /> accordance with applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) monitoring <br /> requirements. <br /> All non-contact water in the southwest pond is sampled and analyzed in accordance with Forward <br /> Landfill's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and Storm Water Monitoring Plan. If the pond is <br /> at capacity and the stormwater samples comply with the discharge requirements,non-contact water <br /> may be discharged to the South Fork of the South Branch of Little Johns Creek. A log is kept on <br /> site recording the volume of non-contact water discharged to the creek from the sedimentation <br /> pond. <br /> The northwest pond includes a spill way that allows non-contact water to flow directly into the <br /> North Fork of the South Branch of Little Johns Creek. However,the non-contact water is sampled <br /> and analyzed in accordance with Forward Landfill Storm Water Monitoring Plan before the <br /> elevation of non-contact water in the pond is at the spillway elevation. If the non-contact water is <br /> unacceptable for release, the liquid will be transferred to the double lined leachate evaporation <br /> ponds. <br /> The top deck of the Austin Road Unit of the Forward Landfill has been graded to drain to the access <br /> road and benches. The non-contact water is then directed to the sedimentation ponds via a system <br /> of V-ditches. Down drains have been constructed to prevent erosion. V-ditches along the north <br /> and west of Austin Road Unit are graded to direct non-contact water to the existing sedimentation <br /> pond. <br /> Stormwater that drains along the vegetated northern slope of the Austin Road Unit is collected in a <br /> ditch that borders the perimeter road. Historically, stormwater that has accumulated in this ditch <br /> has been manually pumped to the stormwater retention ponds, and this process will continue as <br /> necessary. A lift station is located at the eastern end of the ditch so that accumulated stormwater <br /> is automatically pumped to the stormwater pond when necessary. <br /> 4. Leachate <br /> All active WMUs are built to Subtitle "D" standards and have complete leachate collection and <br /> removal systems (LCRSs) installed. Leachate is collected at the sump located in each WMU and <br /> directed to one of two leachate evaporation ponds. One pond is located in the southwest corner of <br />
