Surface Water <br />There are two NPDES sites at the Loadout, 001 and 002 (aka, NPDESIH and <br />NPDES2H). NPDES water quality reports for this year are presented in <br />Appendix B. Data provided includes a water quality report for this year, <br />remarks, a flow hydrograph for all data since 1993, and a regression <br />plot of historic total dissolved solids (TDS) data. <br />A new NPDES permit went into effect on July 10, 2008. The major changes <br />in this new permit were: 1) monitoring frequencies for most parameters <br />is now twice a month (was weekly in the previous permit), 2) monitoring <br />of total iron and total manganese was dropped and 3) monitoring of total <br />recoverable iron was added. No NPDES effluent limits were exceeded this <br />year. <br />• <br />NPDESIH flowed from March 25 to July 1 this year. This site displays a <br />decreasing TDS trend. 10 <br />NPDES2H flowed one week this year, a sample was collected on April 14. <br />This site display an increasing TDS trend, however, the peak TDS value <br />occurred in 1997. <br />Surface water quality reports for this year are presented in Appendix B. <br />Data provided includes a water quality report for this year, remarks, a <br />flow hydrograph for all data since 1993, and a regression plot of <br />historic total dissolved solids (TDS) data. Site HGSD1 is upstream of <br />the Loadout. Site HGSD3 is downstream of the Loadout. <br />Table 3 provides a comparison of this year's surface water quality to <br />CDPHE receiving stream standards for Dry Creek (Yampa Segment 13d, <br />Regulation No. 33, January 2009). This Paradox database generated table <br />does not include the units of concentration (mg/l or ug/1) for each <br />parameter. The units used for each parameter are the same as those <br />listed on the Surface Water Parameter List is <br />(Table 1) and are also the <br />same as those used in the water quality reports. The frequency column on <br />Table 3 indicates, in this order: uncensored, that is, the number of <br />2
