In 2016 basin planning and TMDL staff completed the 2014 Clean Water Act Integrated 303d/305b report and made significant progress in the 2014 triennial basin plan review projects to bring updated science and community collaboration together to improve regulation of contact recreational water quality standards, to establish biological objectives, and to adopt a site-specific objectives for dissolved copper and zinc in Chollas Creek. Staff also completed detailed condition assessments and fact sheets regarding swimming and fish consumption in San Diego Bay. These projects represent the Board's commitment to Basin Plan water quality objectives and implementation sections based on public participation, sound science, and a focus on environmental outcomes.

In FY 2015/16, the San Diego Water Board’s NPDES Wastewater Program completed 2 major NPDES permit renewals, 1 minor NPDES permit renewal, 1 NPDES permit amendment, 1 time schedule order amendment, and 27 facility inspections. The San Diego Water Board did fall short of FY 2015/16 performance targets by 3 major permit renewals for the following reasons: 1. Poseidon Resources failed to provide a revised report of waste discharge in time to prepare a draft “major” NPDES permit for Carlsbad Desalination Facility for the San Diego Water Board’s consideration in FY 2015/16. 2. The San Diego Water Board staff completed a draft “major” NPDES permit for the Encina Power Station in FY 2015/16. However, the San Diego Water Board's consideration of this permit is pending an interpretation of the Once-Thru Cooling Policy by the State Water Board in light of the recently-adopted Desalination Amendment to the California Ocean Plan. 3. The San Diego Water Board staff completed a draft “major” NPDES permit for the North City Water Reclamation Plant in FY 2015/16. However, the City of San Diego rescinded their request for the permit prior to the San Diego Water Board's consideration of this permit. 4. The San Diego Water Board staff and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) staff completed a draft “major” NPDES permit for the E. W. Blom Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant in FY 2015/16. However, the hearing process for jointly-issued permit was not completed in FY 2015/16. The adoption of this permit is subject to the USEPA's issuance of a Technical Decision Document evaluating the City of San Diego's Clean Water Act section 301(h) waiver application. 5. Due to a lack of dedicated funding by the State Water Board, the San Diego Water Board redirected 1.0 PY (approximately 20% of the overall resources) from the NPDES Wastewater Program to the Commercial Agriculture Program. The FY 2015/16 targets presumed full staffing for the NPDES Wastewater Program.

Industrial Inspections	95	373	393% •
In FY 2015/16, the San Diego Water Board’s NPDES Storm Water Program conducted 393 Industrial Inspections, including 268 No Exposure Certification (NEC) inspections. San Diego Water Board staff prioritized the NEC inspections to reduce the economic and regulatory burden for those industrial facilities that are required to obtain coverage under the Statewide General Industrial Storm Water Permit but do not cause or contribute pollutants to receiving waters. Since the NEC is a new provision, the State’s tracking database (SMARTS) does not yet include NEC inspections in its accounting of the inspections that were completed during FY 2015/16.

The San Diego Water Board took actions to further the goals of the State Water Board’s Recycled Water Policy, State Water Board Strategic Plan, and the San Diego Water Board’s Practical Vision to facilitate regional recycled water uses. The San Diego Water Board adopted three revised Master Reclamation Permits and also facilitated the permitting of 10 recycled water agencies for recycled water reuse at water filling stations.

The San Diego Water Board made certain sufficient waste capacity was available that appropriately protected water resources by updating more landfill permits than originally planned. They adopted waste discharge requirements for the closure and post-closure maintenance for Forster Canyon Landfill. That action clears the way for re-development of the adjacent property for residential and commercial uses in the City of San Juan Capistrano. The San Diego Water Board adopted Addendum No. 4 to the Sycamore Landfill waste discharge requirements, adding a new waste unit with approximately 1.6 million cubic yards of additional solid waste disposal capacity. The San Diego Water Board approved the Design Report for the construction of the new Phase D1 and D2 Units at the Prima Deshecha Landfill which will expand long-term waste capacity by over 13,000,000 cubic yards and extend the landfill service life by 21 years.

• DoD Program A Final Record of Decision was signed for Installation Restoration Sites 2 & 4 at Coronado Naval Amphibious Base. • SCP Program The Mission Valley Terminal Site Cleanup Case achieved off-site groundwater cleanup completion. The Mission Valley Aquifer has thus been remediated to meet drinking water standards. • Underground Storage Tanks The UST closure target was below expectations this year. It was, however, exceeded by a considerable amount the previous three years. Therefore in total, from FY 12/13 through FY 15/16 the Target total was 56 while 85 sites were closed. The slowing pace of closures is partly due to the success of the Low Threat Closure Policy, with the remaining cases tending to be more problematic. For example, cases that involve recalcitrant responsible parties, limited financial resources, and/or disagreements between potential responsible parties remain open. In addition, we have several cases that will be closed once the wells are destroyed. Due to financial difficulties and lack of Cleanup Fund assistance, well destruction has been delayed.
