      s 20430. SWRCB - Corrective Action Program. (C15: s2550.10)

      (a) General -A discharger required pursuant to s20385 to establish a 
      corrective action program for a Unit shall, at a minimum, comply with the 
      requirements of this section for that Unit.

      (b) Standards -The discharger shall take corrective action to achieve the 
      following goals: to remediate releases from the Unit; to ensure that the 
      discharger achieves compliance with the Water Standard adopted under 
      s20390 for that Unit. The RWQCB shall specify the Water Standard for 
      corrective action [including any concentration limits greater than 
      background, under s20400(c-g)] in the WDRs.

      (c) Scope of Actions -The discharger shall implement corrective action 
      measures that ensure that COCs achieve their respective concentration 
      limits at all Monitoring Points and throughout the zone affected by the 
      release, including any portions thereof that extend beyond the facility 
      boundary, by removing the waste constituents or treating them in place. 
      The discharger shall take other action approved by the RWQCB to prevent 
      noncompliance with those limits due to a continued or subsequent release 
      from the Unit, including but not limited to, source control. The WDRs 
      shall specify the specific measures that will be taken.

      (d) Monitoring -In conjunction with the corrective action measures, the 
      discharger shall establish and implement a water quality monitoring 
      program to demonstrate the effectiveness of the corrective action program. 
      Such a monitoring program can be based on the requirements for an 
      evaluation monitoring program (under s20425), and shall be effective in 
      determining compliance with the Water Standard (under s20390) and in 
      determining the success of the corrective action measures pursuant to 
¶(c).

      (e) Compliance Schedule -Corrective action measures taken pursuant to this 
      section shall be initiated and completed by the discharger within a period 
      of time specified by the RWQCB in the WDRs.

      (f) Terminating Measures -Corrective action measures taken pursuant to 
      ¶(c)(e.g., pumping and treatment of ground water) may be terminated when 
      the discharger demonstrates to the satisfaction of the RWQCB that the 
      concentrations of all COCs are reduced to levels below their respective 
      concentration limits throughout the entire zone affected by the release.

      (g) Demonstrating Completion of CAP -After suspending the corrective 
      action measures, pursuant to ¶(f), the Unit shall implement the remaining 
      portions of the Corrective Action Program until an approved Detection 
      Monitoring Program meeting the requirements of s20420 has been 
      incorporated into WDRs and until the discharger demonstrates to the 
      satisfaction of the RWQCB that the Unit is in compliance with the Water 
      Standard (under s20390). If the Unit is an MSW landfill, then this 
      demonstration shall meet the federal requirements incorporated by 
      reference in SWRCB Resolution No. 93-62 [see s258.58(c) of 40CFR258], in 
      lieu of meeting the requirements of ¶(g)(1 & 2). For all other Units, this 
      demonstration shall be based on the following criteria and requirements:

      (1) the concentration of each COC in each sample from each Monitoring 
      Point in the Corrective Action Program for the Unit must have remained at 
      or below its respective concentration limit during a proof period of at 
      least one year, beginning immediately after the suspension of corrective 
      action measures; and

      (2) the individual sampling events for each Monitoring Point must have 
      been evenly distributed throughout the proof period and have consisted of 
      no less than eight sampling events per year per Monitoring Point.

      (h) Semi-Annual Progress Reports -The discharger shall report, in writing, 
      to the RWQCB on the effectiveness of the corrective action program. The 
      discharger shall submit these reports at least semi-annually. More 
      frequent reporting shall be required by the RWQCB as necessary to ensure 
      the protection of human health or the environment.

      (i) Discharger-Initiated CAP Changes -If the discharger determines that 
      the corrective action program does not satisfy the provisions of this 
      section, the discharger shall, within 90 days of making the determination, 
      submit an amended report of waste discharge to make appropriate changes to 
      the program.

      (j) RWQCB-Initiated CAP Changes -Any time the RWQCB determines that the 
      corrective action program does not satisfy the requirements of this 
      section, the discharger shall, within 90 days of receiving written 
      notification of such determination by the RWQCB, submit an amended report 
      of waste discharge to make appropriate changes to the program.
