regularly (DEIS, App. C -Surface Water, pp 2-10 & 2-16). <br /> • The Decision Document includes the following requirement: <br /> Boeing's existing operational procedures in on-site drainage basins include regular <br /> monitoring, inspection and cleanout of oil/water separators, catch basins and <br /> biofiltration systems. <br /> Boeing shall continue these or equivalent operational procedures to maintain <br /> effectiveness of separators, basins and systems (Decision Document, pg 14). <br /> Conclusions: <br /> • Because all fueling stations drain into the Powder Mill Gulch Surface Water Treatment <br /> System, water quality monitoring is more important for this basin. A water quality <br /> monitoring program is required to be provided by Boeing and approved by the City prior <br /> to occupancy of any new structure located in the area draining to the main fork of <br /> Powder Mill Gulch. Monitoring at the outfall of the peat filter system and at the outfall <br /> of the created wetlands is required (Decision Document: General Mitigation (4) Surface Water, pg <br /> 14). <br /> • Other on-site water quality controls have been previously constructed, and additional <br /> water quality controls have been required in the Decision Document. These controls, in <br /> conjunction with the sand peat filter system provide state-of-the-art water quality controls <br /> in the Powder Mill Creek drainage basin. <br /> • The design criteria for discharge from the sand peat filter is 10 to 15 times more <br /> stringent for fuel and oil than State water quality standards (see DEIS, App. C -Surface Water, <br /> pg 1-17). <br /> • The water quality monitoring program includes a contingency requirement. If the design <br /> criteria for the peat filter is not met, Boeing must identify the source of pollutants and <br /> remedial options. The City must approve a remediation plan and it must be implemented <br /> by Boeing (Decision Document: General Mitigation (4) Surface Water, C 2 & 3, pg 14). These <br /> requirements insure that any foreseen water quality problems will be corrected. <br /> • Boeing has established operational procedures which include an extremely aggressive, <br /> regular and effective level of maintenance of on-site water quality systems. The Decision <br /> Document requires that these or equivalent operational procedures be used to <br /> continuously maintain the effectiveness of on-site water quality systems. <br /> • Appellants have not demonstrated that the decision of the Responsible Official is <br /> unreasonable. <br /> 13 <br />
