Within the permit, who would monitor water quality beyond the discharge point?
ECCV would monitor the concentrations of selected parameters at the treatment facility prior to blending it with Bowles Seep Ditch water, in order to determine how much water released from Barr Lake may be needed for blending. ECCV would also be required to monitor groundwater quality at four points of compliance using monitoring wells adjacent to the Bowles Seep Ditch, including one upstream of the RO return flow discharge and three downstream, and submit the data in a monthly report to the Division, along with giving proactive notice of any non-compliance. Since May 2008, ECCV has also been gathering baseline data with existing monitoring wells for groundwater and surface water quality and hydrology, to support its permit application. If the permit is granted, ECCV will continue to collect baseline data at existing monitoring wells until the treatment facility is operational, anticipated in 2010. What are the penalties for a ground water discharge permit violation? Should the dischar
