MONITORING AND ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT Napa Plant Site Central Unit
12
Water Quality Monitoring Water quality parameters: salinity, turbidity, temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen (DO). Time: Data collected during an ebbing tide Frequency: –Within 3 days prior to breaching –Once during the first 24 hrs after breaching and again within 5 days after breaching –Weekly for the first month after breaching –Monthly until water quality objectives have been met for 3 consecutive months Per California Regional Water Quality Control Board
13
Sampling Locations 6 locations for Central Unit Breach. Shown on map as yellow dots NR-3 - Napa River, location 3 CUB-DS-150 - Central Unit Breach Downstream 150 ft CUB - Central Unit Breach CUB-US-150 - Central Unit Breach Upstream 150 ft NR-2 - Napa River, location 2 NR-1 - Napa River, location 1 Additionally sampled at the North Unit Breach (not included on following charts for clarity)
14
Salinity Performance Standard – Outflow from site will increase by no more than 5 ppt during any tide cycle. Results – Within performance standards BREACH 9/29/09
15
Turbidity Performance Standard – Outflow from site will not increase turbidity by more than 5 NTU during any tide cycle or by more than 10% if background is > 50 NTU. Results – Turbidity spikes in the first few days but returned to performance standards after 1 week. BREACH 9/29/09
16
Temperature Performance Standard – Outflow from site will not increase temperature by more than 2.8 o C in the wet season and 5.6 o C in the dry season during any tide cycle. Result – Within performance standards BREACH 9/29/09
17
pH Performance Standard – Outflow from site will not cause changes greater than 0.5 units of pH during any tide cycle. Results – Within performance standards BREACH 9/29/09
18
Dissolved Oxygen Performance Standard – Outflow from site will not decrease DO to a concentration lower than 5.0 mg/L during any tide cycle. Results – Within performance standards BREACH 9/29/09
