Quarterly Monitoring Report— First Quarter 2026 <br /> 4.1.3 Leachate and Surface Impoundment Monitoring <br /> Leachate from the sumps at the Site are pumped to surface impoundment WMU-F (F-North) and WMU-F (F- <br /> West)for evaporation. The locations of the surface impoundments are shown on Figure 4. <br /> During first quarter 2026, leachate was observed in WMU D-88, WMU D-93/94, WMU D-01, WMU D-02, WMU <br /> FU-03, WMU FU-04, WMU FU-05, WMU FU-06, WMU FU-19, WMU FU-23, WMU FU-24, and surface <br /> impoundments F-North and F-West. D-89 was unable to be sampled due to flooding around the riser, impeding <br /> access. Sampling details are discussed in Section 4.1.1 and results are presented in Table 8. <br /> The volume of leachate pumped to each surface impoundment during first quarter 2026 is documented in <br /> Appendix E and summarized in Table 4-1 below (as required by MRP Table 26 [RWQCB 2024]). The freeboard in <br /> the surface impoundments was measured weekly; the freeboard logs are also included in Appendix E. The <br /> minimum freeboard observed in first quarter 2026 was 2.4 feet in F-North and 8.0 feet in F-West. <br /> Table 4-1 Volume of Leachate During Third Quarter 2025 <br /> Quarterly <br /> ImpoundmentSurface <br /> (gallons) .

According to the Forward Landfill Operations Manager, leachate recirculation was not performed <br /> at the Site during first quarter 2026. The Site's maximum average leakage rate, which was proposed and <br /> documented in the 2024 WDRs (RWQCB 2024), is 14,445 gallons per day. The maximum average leakage rate <br /> was not exceeded at the Site in first quarter 2026. <br /> The Site has approved the disposal of up to 200,000 gallons per year of landfill gas condensate from the Foothill <br /> Landfill located in San Joaquin County. During first quarter 2026, the Site did not accept any leachate from the <br /> Foothill Landfill. <br /> 4.2 Leachate Seep Monitoring <br /> Leachate seep monitoring is conducted in accordance with MRP Section D.2 (MRP Tables 29 and 30 [RWQCB <br /> 2024]). The surface seeps at the Site are inspected weekly. <br /> No surface seeps were observed at the Site during first quarter 2026; therefore, no seep samples were collected. <br /> 4.3 Cannery Waste Land Application Monitoring <br /> This section describes the monitoring conducted during first quarter of 2026 associated with the cannery waste <br /> land application and provides the associated monitoring results. Cannery waste land application area (CWLAA) <br /> monitoring is conducted in accordance with MRP Section D.3 (RWQCB 2024). <br /> www.arcadis.com <br /> Forward Landfill 1Q26 QMR 9 <br />
