Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
On March 6, 2020, MRO staff met with the permittee and their consulting firm to perform a routine
Compliance Inspection.
During the site visit, O&M records, eDMR records, and flow data were reviewed. The flow from the
facility is well below the permitted daily flow for the permit. There is a sump pump in the garage and a
float system associated with the sump pump. The pump floats were not able to be checked due to
their position in the sump. However, during a high-water circumstance, the SCADA system alerts the
building maintenance crew of the high-water circumstance so they can respond. The building
maintenance crew also performs physical checks during the around the clock to verify the systems are
not in an alarm condition.
The treatment system also has a wet well associated with the system. The float and alarms
associated with the wet well were able to be checked and the audio and visual alarms activated during
the test.
The effluent discharge was viewed at the effluent sampling port. No odor, color, foam or solids were
observed at the effluent sampling port. During the site visit, the outfall was also viewed. However, with
the low flow from the facility, flow from the outfall was not able to be viewed.
A sampling port is also located at the mid -point between the two carbon vessels. Samples are
collected from this port to test for break -through in the treatment vessel.
The activated carbon vessels are located in the parking garage area, spent carbon and replacement
carbon have to transfer new and spent carbon through a pumping truck and hose system. A separate
tanker needs to be present to place new carbon into the vessel once the spent carbon has been
removed. After the transfer,the vessel with the new carbon becomes the polishing vessel.
The permit is currently permitted for a flow of 108,000 GPD. The average flow from the facility is
approximately 25,000 GPD. Most of the water from the facility is captured and used in the building
HVAC system.
Ultimately, the receiving stream does not receive much flow from the treatment system.

Inspection Date: 03/06/2020 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation
Operations & Maintenance Yes No NA NE
Is the plant generally clean with acceptable housekeeping? 0 ❑ ❑ ❑
Does the facility analyze process control parameters, for ex: MLSS, MCRT, Settleable ❑ 0 ❑ ❑
Solids, pH, DO, Sludge Judge, and other that are applicable?
Comment: Housekeeping at the site was good. During the site visit, it was suggested that the activated
carbon manifests and the calibration records be kept as part of the facility O&M records so
they can be tracked.
The O&M records were able to be viewed electronically. Therefore, these records were
considered to be onsite on the date of the site visit. The MRO has received a copy of the
invoice for the flow meter as Droof of calibration.
It is estimated that carbon for the vessels are changed on a 6-month basis.
