Case type:
Company objection to the decision of the Director regarding its own permit
Hearing Examiner:
Boal
Summary:
Pennaco appeals the inclusion in the permit of redundant and inconsistent end-of-pipe compliance limits for sodium adsorption ratio ("SAR") for impounded discharges from Outfalls 001-012 and 020 with a numerical compliance limit for SAR in water from these discharges at the Irrigation Monitoring Points ("IMPs"), both of which would become effective under the renewed permit as of July 31, 2007. Pennaco appeals the final permit and objects to the unwarranted retention of the end-of-pipe limits on SAR in water discharged to impoundments where the IMPs are now effectively compliance points. Pennaco also appeals and objects to the use of the formula to set SAR limits at downstream irrigation locations, rather than utilizing a limit of 24. Consolidated with Docket 7-3620, 3622, and 3623
