during the 2013 water year. Based on the information
provided, the potentially dissolved form is applicable to
NPDES sites and the dissolved form is applicable to
stream sites with the total recoverable form conducted
as a quality control check. The chronic selenium
standard (4.6 ug /1) was exceeded in April (7.1 ug /1),
August (8.2 ug /1), and October (5.6 ug /1) at Site HGSD1
The acute standard (18.4 ug /1) was not exceeded during
the water year. Neither NPDES site was discharging at
the time of the exceedance.
10. Interim Narrative
CWQCC regulation 41.6
It was determined that groundwater points of
Standard for Ground
compliance are unwarranted at the Hayden Gulch
Water
Loadout. It was determined that any Ieachate
originating at the Loadout would likely be of better
quality than native groundwater in the Lewis Shale
which has high concentrations of dissolved solids.

Ieachates in 2013. Well HGDAL3 is downgradient of the
Loadout and well HGDAL4 is the upgradient well from
the Loadout. The manganese standard (0.2 mg /1) was
exceeded at both wells in May and September.
Although 0.2 mg /I is the standard used to protect crops
grown in soils with a pH value lower than 6.0, the
