Notes
Facility inspected in response to recent TSS violations at outfall 001. The construction of dirt roads and staging areas in association with logging at the facility is potentially contributing to more sediment and iron reaching the pond and being discharged. It is the responsibility of the permittee to utilize BMPs and maintain their facility as necessary to prevent permit limit exceedances. Cleaning the pond may also help address the issue.
001 discharge data: Temp - 27.42, pH - 7.75, Conductivity - 192.3 µc/cm, HDO -6.76 mg/L, Fe - 0.06 mg/L.
