Water Quality Objective/Criterion: | No individual pesticide or combination of pesticides shall be present in concentrations that adversely affect beneficial uses. Discharges shall not result in pesticide concentrations in bottom sediments or aquatic life that adversely affect beneficial uses. Total identifiable persistent chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides shall not be present in the water column at concentrations detectable within the accuracy of analytical methods approved by the Environmental Protection Agency or the Executive Officer. Pesticide concentrations shall not exceed those allowable by applicable antidegradation policies. Pesticide concentrations shall not exceed the lowest levels technically and economically achievable. Waters designated for use as domestic or municipal supply (MUN) shall not contain concentrations of pesticides in excess of the Maximum Contaminant Levels set forth in California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 15. Where more than one objective may be applicable, the most stringent objective applies. |

Spatial Representation: | The Deer Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant is located in the Section 16, T9N, R9E, MDB&M, adjacent to Deer Creek, a tributary to the Cosumnes River. Receiving water samples were collected at the NPDES permit R1 monitoring location, which is located in Deer Creek at the gauging station upstream of the point of discharge at the first bridge crossing Deer Creek as part of the access road to the DCWWTP. |
Temporal Representation: | Receiving water sampling was collected on 5/21/02 and 2/21/02. |
Environmental Conditions: | |
QAPP Information: | The QAPP demonstrates that all field-sampling procedures were conducted in a technically appropriate, efficient, and cost-effective manner, ultimately contributing to the project goals. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: | All receiving water samples were grab samples. Concentrations of manganese (expressed as total recoverable) ranged from 3.7 ug/l to 260 ug/l. The July 2002 sample had a concentration of 260 ug/l, which is greater than the DHS secondary MCL of 50 ug/l. The other 11 samples had concentrations of manganese less than the DHS secondary MCL.
One sample out of 12 exceeded the DHS Secondary MCL. (CVRWQCB, 2003a). |
Data Reference: | Placeholder reference 2006 303(d) |
Water Quality Objective/Criterion: | Waters shall not contain chemical constituents in concentrations that adversely affect beneficial uses. At a minimum, water designated for use as domestic or municipal supply (MUN) shall not contain concentrations of chemical constituents in excess of the maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) specified in the following provisions of Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations, which are incorporated by reference into this plan: Tables 64431-A (Inorganic Chemicals) and 64431-B (Fluoride) of Section 64431, Table 64444-A (Organic Chemicals) of Section 64444, and Tables 64449-A (Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels-Consumer Acceptance Limits) and 64449-B (Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels-Ranges) of Section 64449. This incorporation-by-reference is prospective, including future changes to the incorporated provisions as the changes take effect. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: | All receiving water samples were grab samples. Samples collected in Apr. 02 and Jun 02 exceeded the WQO; both samples measured 8.7 std units; the other 10 samples did not exceed the standard. (CVRWQCB, 2003a). |
Data Reference: | Placeholder reference 2006 303(d) |
Water Quality Objective/Criterion: | The pH shall not be depressed below 6.5 nor raised above 8.5. Changes in normal ambient pH levels shall not exceed 0.5 in fresh waters with designated COLD or WARM beneficial uses. In determining compliance with the water quality objective for pH, appropriate averaging periods may be applied provided that beneficial uses will be fully protected.
