Tentative Orders

The consideration of a draft NPDES permit for the Fairfield Suisun Wastewater Treatment Plant has been postponed to the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Board hearing on April 9, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. The draft permit would regulate an average daily discharge of up to about 24 million gallons per day of treated wastewater to Boynton through a shallow water outfall and intermittently to two managed duck ponds and Ledgewood Creek. The public comment period is closed. An NPDES permit is being considered for groundwater discharges in the San Francisco Bay Region. The permit would reissue and combine the VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) and Fuel General Permit (R2 2017-0048, as amended by R2-2018-0050) and Groundwater General Permit (Order R2-2018-0026), regulating discharges associated with the extraction and treatment of groundwater impacted by inorganic chemicals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), fuel leak compounds, and other synthetic organic compounds in the San Francisco Bay Region. The San Francisco Bay Water Board will consider this item at its April 9, 2025, meeting. The public comment period is closed. A Tentative Site Cleanup Requirements Order is being considered for ExxonMobil and Port of Oakland, Former Mobil Terminal, Oakland, Alameda County. The Order would rescind site cleanup requirements for the cleanup and abatement of soil, groundwater, and soil vapor impacted by total petroleum hydrocarbons and volatile organic compounds. Written comments or objections to this action must be submitted no later than April 4, 2025 by 5:00 p.m.
