ORDER N0,R5-2018-0017 21 CONDITIONAL WAIVER OF WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS FOR DISASTER-RELATED WASTES WITHIN THE CENTRAL VALLEY REGION features (e.g. roads, streams, etc.), and provide Geographical Information System (GIS) data as available. e) A simple cross section of the emergency landfill and a description of the construction (thickness of layers, distance from bottom of landfill to first groundwater, and thickness and type of final cover). f) Estimated depth from the ground surface to first groundwater and source of the information. g) An estimate of the amount of wastes (in pounds or tons) discharged into the emergency landfill. h) A description of measures taken to ensure that wastes and waste constituents do not migrate outside the emergency landfill or into groundwater. i) Any other site-specific or discharger related information requested by the Central Valley Water Board. 7. Following evaluation of the ROWD, Central Valley Water Board staff may prepare WDRs if the landfill will become permanent. A monitoring and reporting program may also be issued, and may require groundwater monitoring. Clean closure of the landfill may be required if the ROWD indicates a significant potential to impact groundwater, and if the disease threat has abated to allow transportation of the mass mortality waste. G. Specific Waiver Conditions for Discharges from Emergencies Not Within a Declared Disaster Area 1. In the event of an emergency not within a disaster area declared by the Governor, this Conditional Waiver may be used for waste discharges necessary to mitigate an emergency under either of the following conditions: a. The Discharger submits a Notice of Intent to the Central Valley Water Board before commencing discharges pursuant to this Conditional Waiver. Discharge of wastes in a manner requiring coverage under this Conditional Waiver shall not occur until the Executive Officer provides the Discharger a written Notice of Enrollment stating that the proposed discharge is eligible and approved for coverage under this Conditional Waiver. b. An emergency is declared by a state or local government agency and an Incident Commander, working through the Standardized Emergency Management System (STEMS) and the California Office of Emergency Services (CES), directs that waste be discharged to mitigate the emergency.
