PREPARED BY:
Neil Heely, R.E.A.
W. M. Lyles Co.

Fresno, CA 93706
Site History and Action Taken:
Task # 1:
On December 13, 2002, personnel from W. M. Lyles Co. (WML) Environmental
Division removed the concrete cover and excavated approximately 18 cubic yards of pea
gravel from the site of a 2,000 gallon fiberglass underground storage tank (UST) at 4201
Auburn Ave., Bakersfield, CA. The UST was in a cast-in-place concrete vault, which was
presumed to be a secondary containment unit. The UST had previously contained diesel
fuel for use in an emergency diesel-powered electric generator. The UST had been
pumped of all free liquids prior to WML starting work at the site.
WML personnel removed all the pea gravel bedding from the vault and stockpiled
it on site. No discoloration or odor was noted in any of the pea gravel bedding material.
The vault was cleaned to bare concrete as per Bakersfield Fire Department Office of
Environmental Services (BFDOES) directives to determine the status of the floor
composition and inspection by the BFDOES inspector.
On December 16, 2002, WML personnel triple rinsed the interior of the UST with
high-pressure spray equipment. The rinsate was pumped from the UST by Cole
Environmental Services of Bakersfield, CA, who are under contract with Kern County
Water Agency and disposed of as per lawful requirements. 50 pounds of carbon dioxide
pellets were then introduced in the UST to inert the interior atmosphere. The interior was
tested by Inspector Howard Wines III of BFDOES and found to be in compliance to allow
removal. All connecting fuel, return and vent piping was removed and properly disposed
of.
A crane was hooked to the UST and the UST was loaded onto transport
equipment for transport to Commercial Tank Sales in Fresno, CA for salvage/destruction,
The stockpiled pea gravel was then placed in the vault and spread uniformly. The
remainder of the backfill material was trucked in and placed on the pea gravel. The soil
within the UST area was then crowned and covered with plastic to avoid water intrusion
into the original vault structure. All debris was disposed of off-site. Site work was
completed and WML personnel and equipment were removed from the site and the site
returned to the Owner for his use.
All tank permits and disposal documentation is included herewith.
At this time, all environmental work performed by W. M. Lyles Co. Environmental
Division is concluded and all known related materials have been removed from the
affected site and properly disposed of at an approved facility, therefore we recommend the
site be granted conditional closure as per BFDOES requirements.

Dear Madam or Sir:
This letter is an official notice of your non-compliance with
state and county laws relating to underground tanks.
Upon review of our records, it was discovered that the 1988
Permit to Operate fees for Oswell Pump Station & Reservoir, 4201
Auburn Street, Bakersfield, California were not paid. Enclosed is
a copy of 1988's invoice plus the 50% late penalty required by
county ordinance. The second invoice is for this year's Permit
to Operate fees. These invoices must be paid within 30 days to
avoid further penalties and/or legal action.
Be advised that these fees must be paid even if the tanks are
no longer in use. If the tanks are not in use, a permit for
permanent closure must be obtained from this office. Permanent
closure requires either removal or closure in place of your tanks
and assessment by soil samplin~ to determine whether there has been
environmental damage as a result of unauthorized releases of
hazardous substances from your tank s~te. The specific
requirements for these acti. vities are in Handbook #UT-30, available
with your application. No closure activity ~an be~in prior to the
issuance o_~f ~ permit froz~ this office.
If you have any questions or feel this assessment is in error,
or if you would like an application and our handbook on permanent
closure please call me at (805)861-.3636. Your prompt attention to
this very important matter is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Hazardous Materials Inspector

Underground O~ese] Fuel Storage Facility
Dea~ H~. Casag~ande:
[, Robert Be]~ue, D~st~ct Eng~nee~ fo~ ~mprovement D~st~ct
4 (~D4), Ke~n County ~ate~ Agency, Bakersfield, California, hereby apply
fo~ authorization to construct and permission to operate an underground
d~ese] storage fac~3~ty as pa~t of the 0swe]~ pro~ect, as described below.
The facility, ]ocated'at 4~0[ Auburn Street, Bakersfield, w~ be owned
~mprovement D~st~ct No. 4, 4~[4 Arrow Street, Bakersfield,
93302. 0pe~at~on of th~s facility w~]] be d~rected by ~am Horan, Plant
Superintendent, ID4 ~ate~ Purification P~ant, 3000 State Road, Bakersfield,
CA 93302. The 24-hou~ emergency contact number ~s (805) 393-6207.
Th~s facility provides both pr~ma~y and seconda~ containment as
we3] as monitoring of the No. 2 d~ese] fuel ~equ~.~ed for operation of a
standby engine-generator. The primary containment consists of a 2,000
ga]Ion f~berg3ass tank w~th steel reinforcement ~n the bottom. Th~s tank
~s completely contained w~th a ~e~nforced concrete vault, which ~s Provided
w~th a sump and sta~n]ess steel ~pe which a~ows any co~ected leakage
~nf~]t~at~on to be monitored and, ~f necessary, removed. The inter,or
the concrete vau~t ~s coated w~th a concrete sea]e~, Nob~] No. 64-~-70~
(see attached data sheet), to prevent leakage, and the cover ~s caulked to
prevent ~nf~]trat~on of rainfall. In addition, a~]' p~p~ng which ~eads from
the p~mar~ conta~ne~ to the generato~ building ~s enclosed ~n a ~e~nfo~ced
concrete t~ench wh~ch'~s ~so]ated from the generator building. Thus any
p~p~ng leakage d~a~ns back to the secondary conta~ne~ and any related fumes
are ~so~ated from the generator building. P~ease see the attached drawings

SECTION 3. OPERATION PROCESS
Description of Treatment Plant Process:
The Gamett Plant is a conventional water filtration facility using flash mixing, flocculation,
sedimentation, multimedia filtration, chlorine disinfection, pH adjustment, corrosion control, and
pre-oxidation. Designed at a maximum rate of 38 million gallons per day (MGD), the plant has a
maximum capacity of 47 MGD. The plant utilizes chlorine for disinfection, sodium hydroxide and
zinc orthophosphate for corrosion control, potassium permanganate for algae and taste and odor
~c0ntrol, powdered activated carbon for taste and odor and organic suppression, cationic polymer
for coagulation aid, and alum for coagulation.
Raw Water Sources:
Four sources are available to the Gamett Plant
1. State Water Project (active)
2. Kern River (active)
3. Central Valley Project (active)
4. Kern Water Bank (stand-by)
The source selection criteria is availability and quality. Through a series of canals, the source
water is delivered to the temperature equalization pond.
Raw Water Inlet to Garner Plant:
The 50 million~gallon temperature pond supplying Garner Plant is a safeguard against rapid
physical and chemical water property changes. An effort is made to maintain a healthy biological
environment in the pond. Potassium Permanganate may be applied at the pond inlet structure.
Pond water is piped by way of a freeway crossing structure where activated carbon may be added.
It continues through a 54 inch conduit to a meter vault and on to 7 inflow pumps of three
different sizes. 12, 5 & 2 I/2 MGD pumps are selected in various combinations to achieve various
plant flows. Raw water is raised approximately 26 f~ by the inflow pumps to 2 parallel inflow
detention basins. From this point, flow through the purification plant to the Treated Water Pump
Station is by gravity.
Flash Mixer:
The flash mix chamber, modified in 1997, receives water from two detention basins. The chamber
is 14 feet by 9 feet with a 12 foot water depth. Chamber entry is at either side of the bottom and
the flow is upward and then split 3 ways to the three flocculators. Chlorine, alum and polymer can
be added at this point. Experience has shown that the best floc is formed if alum is added at the
meter vault while a cationic polymer is applied at the flash mix chamber. The chamber effluent is
known as "Conditioned Water Sample" (CWS).
3
Raw Water Chlorination:
Chlorine is normally injected into the raw water at the meter vault. The inflow pumps serve as
rapid mixers for chlorine and alum, which can also be added at the meter vault. Two detention
basins allow a chlorine contact time of 15 to 40 minutes before the chlorinated water arrives at the
top of the flash mix chamber where the Conditioned Water Sample (CWS) pump suction line is
located. The CWS chlorine is laboratory tested every 2 hours using an amperometrie titrator, and
continuously monitored with a Capital Controls chlorine analyzer. The initial chlorine demand is
satisfied, due to the contact time in the detention basins, before a residual is measured. A CWS
free chlorine residual of 1.0 to 1.2 ppm is maintained. A minimum chlorine residual of 0.4 ppm is
maintained throughout the settled water basins for CT compliance.
;
Pilot Filter:
~A 6-inch diameter clear plastic pilot filter is located in the Control Room. The filter media has the
same vertical cross section as the 6 plant filters. Conditioned water is piped to the pilot filter. The
influent and effluent is continuously monitored and charted. This allows early affirmation the
conditioned water is properly pre-conditioned.
Streaming Current Detector (SCD):
A SCD is installed parallel to the pilot filter to aid in coagulant dosage determination. Particulate
matter in water normally has a negative surface charge. With like charges the particles will not
approach each other for coagulation. The particles are said to be stabilized. The dispersion of
sufficient coagulant in raw water destabilizes these particles allowing them to clump together
forming floc. Destabilized, these particles have a less negative surface charge. The SCD measures
the relative particle surface charge and therefore is a coagulant dosage monitor. The SCD output
is displayed and charted.
Flocculation Units:
The destabilized particles in conditioned water must be brought together where sticky coagulant
coatings will cause these particles to coalesce into larger particles. Larger particles will more
easily Settle out of water. The gentle mixing necessary for bringing these particles together is
provided by flocculation units.
Three 51 ft. wide by 45 ft. long by 12 ft. water depth flocculation basins are each divided into 4
compartments by redwood baffles arranged in an over/under flow directing arrangement. Each
compartment has a horizontal variable speed shaft with paddles transverse to water flow. The
flocculator drives are set at decreasing speed from basin inlet to outlet. The shaft speeds are
determined empirically, 4 to 2 rpm being typical.
Sedimentation Basins:
Water exits the flocculation basins to the sedimentation basins through a horizontally slotted
redwood divider wall. The flow distribution is uniform horizontally and vertically and must
maintain this pattern without turbulence the length of the sedimentation basin for maximum floc
4
settling. Water must exit the sedimentation basin in an equally uniform manner. The settled floc
(sludge) is discharged through automatically controlled discharge valves.
Garnett Plant has three sedimentation basins, each 51 t~. wide, 200 ft. in length, with a 12 ft.
water depth. At the outlet end of the basin the supernatant flows over v-notch weirs into a launder
collection arrangement, then to the settled water channel.
Sludge Disposal:
Dual sludge collecting bottom scrapers move the sludge from the outlet end of the sedimentation
basin to a cross collection channel at the inlet end. The cross collector allows for the flow of
sludge through timed discharge valves that open in sequence with variable open and off durations
adjusted empirically for sludge load. Sludge is piped to 2 or more of 8 drying beds. The dried
~ludge is taken out of the drying beds as needed and stored on plant property.
Settled Water:
The settled water channel is a conduit for water, from the sedimentation basins to the filter
influent valves. A sample pump sends a continuous flow to the laboratories and process control
panel. Chlorine and turbidity are laboratory analyzed every two hours and continuously monitored
and charted. The free chlorine residual is used in calculating the CT ratio. Turbidity is used in
evaluating floeeulation and sedimentation efficiency.
Down stream from the sample pump are application points for chlorine, sodium hydroxide and a
filter aid if needed. This is the normal post-chlorination application point. A chlorine residual is
carried through the filters for disinfection and algae growth suppression. For adequate chlorine
residual to arrive at the treated water pumps, chlorine loss in the channel and filters must be
anticipated and provided for. Sodium hydroxide is normally applied after the filters. Empirical
evidence indicates it is better to satisfy the polymer requirements at the flash mixer so maximum
floc is formed. When this is done a filter aid is normally not needed and sufficient polymer residual
is present at the filters to ensure necessary filter performance.
Filtration:
The heart of water purification is filtration. Multimedia filters are made of grains of sand and coal
but the filtering principal is not a straining action. Without proper preconditioning, filters will
remove only the largest suspended matter from water. Smaller particulate matter must adhere to
the grains of filter media or previously deposited material which explains the need for
preconditioning. In general, the same properties and forces that cause floc formation are needed
for good filtration. The DOHS limit for filter flows is 6 gpm/ft2 and is adhered to by operators. Up
to 43 MGD using 5 filters is acceptable. Any greater flow requires 6 filters.
Garnett Plant has 6 bifurcated filters with 988 ft2 surface area each. The filter media is composed
of anthracite coal over silica then garnet sand for a total of 30 inches of media. Except for
rate-of-flow controllers, all valves are pneumatically actuated from controls in the filter huts.
Rate-of-flow controllers are tied through a dedicated computer to the settled water channel level.
Each filter has head loss, flow, and turbidity transmitters sending information to the control room
for display and recording. There is a filter-to-waste valve available for breaking in a fleshly
backwashed filter.
Filtered Water:
Filtered water flows from the filters into a common header to the backwash pump structure, a
vault down stream from the filters. Zinc orthophosphate is added at this point for corrosion
control. This is also the usual application point for sodium hydroxide, used for pH adjustment.
Three of the raw water sources available to the Garner Plant are low in calcium carbonate to the
point where pH adjustment to CaCO3 saturation is not feasible. The pi-I, therefore, is adjusted to
the best range for zinc orthophosphate corrosion control. This is typically 7.0 - 7.4 pH. There is a
chlorine application point here. Down stream from this application point is a filtered water sample
[~ump which sends a continuous sample to a chlorine analyzer, with a recorded output in the
control room, and to the labs where chlorine and turbidity are analyzed every two hours by the
operator.
Clearwells:
The clearwells are not flow through design (though they are scheduled to be upgraded and
converted in 1999-2000) so a concerted effort is made to cycle the water to the greatest extent
practical. The 2 clearwells hold approximately 6 million gallons with a normal operating range of
30 to 95 percent.
Treated Water:
When water arrives at the Treated Water Pump Station it is called treated water (TW). The TW
sample pump supplies a continuous sample stream to a TW chlorine analyzer located at the pump
station, to the laboratory, and to the process control panel. Another chlorine application point is
located up stream from the TW sample pump. This application point is normally used only when
the Garnett Plant is shutdown and water is being drawn from the clearvvells (see Settled Water
section above). The chlorine analyzer signal is sent to, and recorded at, the control room where
turbidity and pH is also analyze and continuously recorded. Laboratory analyses of chlorine,
turbidity and pH are performed every two hours.
Water Quality Parameters:
Turbidity: The target FWS/TWS turbidity is <0.1 NTU. The filter turbidity alarms are set at this
level so that an operator is aware when any filter exceeds 0.1 NTU turbidity and can take
corrective action. Any individual or composite filter turbidity exceeding 0.2 NTU triggers
notification of plant management and the initiation of optimization testing. Any TW NTU
exceeding 0.5 mandates DOHS notification. Additionally, particle counts are mn continuously.
SWS turbidities are normally <1.0 NTU or 80+% reduction in IWS NTUs.
Particle Counts: On-line particle counters are currently installed on the raw water (IWS), settled
water (SWS), composite filtered water OW/S), and each individual filter effluent (6) samples. The
6
particle count numbers for specific size ranges (2-5, 5-15, >15 microns) are continually monitored
by the shii~ operator and used to optimize treatment.
Chlorine: A residual of 1.0 ppm at the Treated Water Pump Station is normally the target. The ·
chlorine is applied in the settled water channel and usually has more than an hour of contact time
before it is pumped into the distribution system. Plant management and DOHS must be notified if
the TW residual drops below 0.4 ppm. The plant must be taken off-line and the retail customers
must be notified along with DOHS if the TW chlorine residual drops below 0.2 ppm.
CT Ratio: All the variables for calculating the CT ratio and log removal are programmed or
plugged into a control room computer, calculated and recorded every 2 hours. The CT ratio is not
to drop below 1.0.
i-
Odor: When the Threshold Odor Number reaches 2 TON, operators are instructed to start taking
action which may include but is not limited to feeding potassium permanganate or activated
carbon. SOPs are available in the main laboratory.
Corrosion Control: An on-going corrosion evaluation program using copper, lead, and steel
coupons is utilized for optimizing corrosion treatment. There are three coupon stations located at
the following locations:
* Treated Water Pump Station (TWPS)
· Oswell Pump Station
· North Line T.O. #1 (Belle & Sequoia)
These coupons are weighed prior to installation at the sample site locations and weighed again
when they are replaced six months later. The differential is calculated as mils-per-year loss of
material and used to determine if current or test treatment is adequate. Current typical zinc
orthophosphate dosage is 1.4 ppm (as chemical) with a finished water pH of 7.2-7.3. The Water
Treatment Supervisor maintains all documentation. The Water Quality Supervisor maintains
duplicates.
Bacteriological: Treated water "Colilert" (absence/presence method) are prepared and incubated
twice per day. Plate counts once per month. Raw water Quanti-trays are prepared once a day.
Distribution System: Routine sampling is performed once a week and tested for chlorine,
turbidity, odor, color, alkalinity, conductivity, pi&, temperature, and microbiological
presence/absence.
Less Frequent Laboratory procedures:
Title 22 metals/inorganics - once per month.
General minerals (anion/cation balance) once per month.
Total Trihalomethanes - once a month, Treated plus distribution system.
7

MPN - once per week.
Fecal Strep - once per month.
Fecal Coliform - once daily.
~ECTION 4. SPECLALIZED PROCEDURES
General Plant Start-up/ShUtdown:
A check-list for starting up or shutting down the Garnett Plant is used by the operator. This list is
located in the Water Treatment Supervisor's office. One especially important start-up precaution
is that all treated water pumps should be off.line for the first hour, or until an adequate chlorine
residual is measured in the filtered water. A shutdown precaution is that every chemical feed
pump supply line valve must be closed. If the treated water pumps are not shutdown, the post
chlorine application point must be changed to the Treated Water Pump Station.
Chlorinator Start-up/Shutdown:
The plant currently emplc~ys the use of chlorine gas supplied in ton cylinders. There are two (2)
active load cells at all times that utilize two (2) tons cylinders per load cell. One load cell is
always on-line while the other is in stand-by status. These cylinders are connected to flexible
metal tubing that connects to black iron piping in the chlorine storage room downstairs. Chlorine
is under pressure conditions in the tanks and piping up to where the iron piping connects to the
Capital Controls vacuum regulators on the east wall of the storage room. From this point on, all
conveyance materials are PVC because the chlorine is under vacuum conditions from the
regulator through the chlorinators upstairs to the drive water injectors.
When performing a plant shutdown, the operator is instructed to secured all other treatment
processes before shutting down the chlorination system. This is to ensure that all water that
passes into the plant receives a dosage of chlorine. If the chlorine is not the last chemical and
process shut down, it may be possible for unchlorinated water to pass into or through the plant.
Conversely, the chlorination system is the first to be started upon plant starmp. The following are
procedures that must be followed:
Plant shutdown - 1.Close the chlorinator feed line valve at the drive water manifold.
2. Close the chlorinator gas supply valve located behind the
chlorinator.
Plant startup - 1. Open the chlorinator gas supply valve.
2. Open the chlorinator feed line valve at the drive water manifold.
3. Adjust for a minimum of 15 inches of rig.
Extended downtime or abrupt shutdowns may cause fine materials to dislodge offthe inside of the
plant plumbing and cause partial or completing plugging of the in-line drive water manifold
screens. If this happens, the operator will be unable to achieve sufficient vacuum with the drive
water manifold system. The chlorinators will need to be secured and the screens removed and
cleaned with a brush in the laboratory and replaced.
Filter Backwashing:
F~ilters are backwashed for one of four reasons and varies with different waters or times of the
year:
Breakthrough - when filter effluent turbidity is seen to increase.
Flow loss - when flow is appreciably lower then other filters.
Head loss - alarm set at 9 It. but normally backwashed sooner.
Run limit - 100 hours as set by management.
A filter is backwashed one bed at a time. Backwash (BW) rates are variable, up to 11,000 gpm or
22 gpm/it2 or 36 inch rise rate. High rates are useful for retarding mudball formation, but high
rates using surface wash will wash out media. For these reasons a 2 stage backwash rate is best; a
Iow rate while surface wash is breaking up surface accumulation then a high rate after surface
wash is shut off. Other standard BW procedures are used, such as gradual rate introduction, to
keep from blowing medi~ out, and gradual ending, to stratify filtering media. Waste is sent to 1 of
2 decanting pools where the supernatant may be returned to the Temperature Equalization Pond
depending on which decanting pool is in use.
A step-by-step procedure, (other procedures may be equally valid);
1. Close influent valve and drain filter to or below launders.
2. Set Operation Selector to Backwash, Set Backwash Selector to fight or left bed and set
Surface Wash Selector to same bed.
3. Start backwash pump flow using procedure for the pump being used.
4. Increase BW water gradually. Stop increasing BW water at 7-9000 gpm.
5. Hose down the filter on the side being backwashed.
6. Turn Surface Wash Selector to opposite bed.
7. Increase BW flow up to 11000 gpm.
8. When you can see filter media or surface washers gradually reduce BW flow to 3000
gpm or less. Filters need not be completely clean.
9. Change Backwash Selector to opposite bed.
10. Increase BW flow to 7-9000 gpm as in step 4.
11. Repeat step 5. Hose down filter side on the side being backwashed.
12. Turn Surface Wash Selector to off.
13. Increase BW flow up to 11000 gpm.
14. When you can see filter media or surface washers, gradually reduce BW flow to 3000
gpm or less.
'15. Turn Operation Selector to fill.
16. Fill Filter then remm all controls to normal.
Surface wash agitation should be lengthened if increased surface accumulation is noted.
Treatment Optimization:
Jar tests, Pilot Filter, TOC analYZer, UV2a4 spectrophotometer, and the Streaming Current
Detector are the primary tools for treatment optimization.
Jar tests are performed with every water source change or serious treatment problems appear. Jar
t~ests are used as a plant model for flash mixing, flocculation and sedimentation. A series of jars
are dosed with various concentrations of coagulants (alum & polymer). Other chemicals added to
raw water are kept uniform (chlorine, activated carbon, etc.). Ganged mixers are set to mimic the
agitation of a flash mixer for the period of time water would be in the flash mix chamber. The
mixers are slowed to imitate flocculation for a commensurate period of time. Then, the mixers are
stopped and the jars let stand to duplicate sedimentation. Settling is observed. At the end of the
settling period samples are measured for turbidity for all 6 jars. Base line decisions can then be
made as to coagulant dosages.
Ajar test is only a starting point. Treatment optimization is best achieved with full plant trials.
The pilot filter and strear/img current detector are beneficial for these trials. The pilot filter will
show quick responses to coagulant changes allowing the operator to optimize coagulant dosages
relatively rapidly. The streaming current detector is excellent for noting'over/under dosaging of
coagulant. See sections titled Pilot Filter and Streaming Current Detector above.
UV2s4 Spectrophotometer specifications and procedures are attached in the addendum.
Particle counters are currently utilized for continuous on-line monitoring of raw water (IWS),
settled water (SWS), composite filtered water (FWS), and individual filter (6) effluent samples.
The data is monitored and electronically recorded in the control room on the operators'
computer.
DOllS Matrix: In 1997, Fresno DOHS-ODW and ID4 management prepared a matrix of
required actions to be taken by the HCG staffin response to potential microbial concerns. This
matrix list has been implemented into the required daily responsibilities of the staff. A copy is
attached, each employee has been issued a copy, and a framed enlargement hangs in the main
hallway of the plant.

~ECTION 5. WATER TREATMENT RECORDS
Water Quality Records:
A Daily Operator Log is used to record most laboratory water quality test results. Those tests that
are performed every 2 hours include: turbidity, chlorine, pH on raw, conditioned, filtered and
treated water samples. The CT ratio/log removal is calculated every other hour and recorded on
the daily log. Water quality tests completed twice a day include: odor test, alkalinity, hardness,
and chloride. Conductivity is recorded daily on the log. Bacteriological tests are recorded on a
bacteriological report.
The remote monitoring of the following is continuously recorded on control room strip charts and
the SCADA system;
Raw Water - Turbidity, pH
Conditioned Water - Chlorine
Settled Water - Chlorine, Turbidity
Filtered Water - Chlorine, Individual Filter Turbidity
Treated Water - Chlorine, Turbidity, pH
Pilot Filter - Turbidities
Streaming Current Detector - Output
Operation Records:
Plant flow and backwash totalizer readings are recorded on the daily log, as are filter headloss,
mn and backwash records, chemical dosage rates and stock on hand records. Other forms record
distribution flow totalizers, pump run totalizers and various other information. Again, this info is
also recorded in the treatment plant SCADA system. All logs and charts are stored. The daily
operator log, monthly summary and distribution records are also stored electronically.

SECTION 6. WATER DISTRIBUTION
North Pipeline:
;A 27 inch pipeline delivers water north from the Garnett Plant about 3 miles and ends at the North
of the River (NOR) Terminal Tanks. It has an elevation rise of 180 feet. There are four pumps:
one 150 HP at 2.5 MGD and three 300 I-l? at 5 MGD. Several turnouts are located along the
pipeline between the Garnett Plant and Terminal tanks. Because of the size of the pipeline there is
little loss in efficiency as successive pumps are placed in operation. The 2 Terminal Tanks have a
total storage capacity of 9 MG. However, booster pumps located at Terminal have been
engineered so that the limits of operation, the actual tank capacity available, is from 50 to 90
percent.
East Pipeline:
A 5 1/2 mile pipeline with a diameter of 33 inches delivers water toward the east from the Garnett
Plant. The Diameter steps down in stages to 27 inches by the time it arrives at the 6.8 MG Oswell
tank. There are several turnouts along the way. The elevation increases about 400 feet. Four 1000
rfp electric motors with pumps rated at 12 MGD pump into this line. As successive pumps are
placed in operation the efficiency drops drastically. A fourth pump should only be used according
to management directives.
Five booster pumps, 75 HP at 2.5 MG each, located at Oswell, pump up the hill to the 0.05 MG
Corner Tank. This is a 24 inch, 1.3 mile line. From the 23 Corner Tank, a 16" pipe travels south
toward East Niles Country Club storage tanks. California Water Service Company and East Niles
CSD both have lift pumping stations at 23 Corner Tank.
SECTION 7. REI,IABILITY
Maintenance:
Garnett Plant has an Operations & Maintenance, and a Data & Control departments to handle
most operations and maintenance needs. All maintenance not handled by the in-house personnel is
contracted out. Preventative maintenance is triggered by computer generated tickler sheets
administered by the O&M Supervisor.
12
Alarms:
Enunciator panels located in the control room monitors the set limits for chlorine, turbidity,
chemical feed pumps, filter headloss, pumps, motors, water levels, and a great many other hazards
to reliable operation.
Redundancy:
Most components of the Gamett Plant have built in redundancy, so that if one is out of service a
backup or alternate is available. Four raw water sources, 7 Inflow pumps, 3 sedimentation basins,
6 filters, 4 treated water pumps for each distribution line, 2 backwash pumps, etc. Each chemical
feed pump has a standby pump next to it or one ready to install.
Gamett Plant does not have redundancy with the step down transformer supplying electrical
bower to the plant. It does have an emergency generator but only to supply a few lights and
instrumentation.
The Oswell facility and Comer Tank, both, have emergency generators that will supply all
electrical power except for the most extreme water demand. The pipelines however, have no
redundancy.
Disaster Plan:
There is a Disaster Plan published by the Kern County Water Agency covering such disasters as
earthquakes, flooding and serious chemical spills. The objectives of the plan is not only to protect
agency lives and property but also to "continue Agency services and operations" after a serious
incident.
SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Aquisition):
The Treatment Plant currently employs a SCADA system designed to replicate the control room
monitoring formerly performed by strip charts. This includes both Treatment Plant and CVC strip
charts. Phase II, including PLC (programmable logic controller) components along with limited
control, are currently (1999) being developed and implemented.

Procedure for Changing Chlorine Ton Cylinders
Scope:
This procedure is exclusively intended for the use of the water purification plant
operators of tl~e Kern County Water Agency ID4 Henry C. Garnett Purification Plant. It
is not intended to be used anywhere else.
General Inform::tion About Chlorine:
Chlorine gas is green/yellow and has a penetrating and irritating odor. It is primarily a
respiratory irritant at concentrations above 3 ppm by volume. The gas is non-flammable
though it will support combustion (the same way that oxygen does). Chlorine gas is
heavier than the atmosphere and is only slightly soluble in water (4 grams/liter ~ 20° C).
The reaction with water generates heat. It is a skin irritant that will produce burns on
prolonged contact. It can cause severe damage to eyes and mucous membranes.
Chlorine Equipment Specific Information:
· Always keep the protective cylinder hood in place except when the cylinder is
connected to the ':system". Under no circumstances is the cylinder ever to be moved
without the protective hood in place.
· Never tamper with the Fusible plugs.
Do not apply heat to any part of the cylinder or its connections. (Note: heaters are
applied to the drip legs on the manifold system.)
· The recommended valve wrench length is 6 inches.
· Open valves slowly and only make one complete rotation. This will allow maximum
discharge while necessitating only one turn for total closure
· The chlorine hoist has two speeds. The slower speed must only be used when first
lifting a cylinder or upon nearing the set-down point (usually about one foot away).
Preparation:
Changing chlorine cylinders is normally performed during normal work hours. In the
event that a loadcell runs out during off'-hours, it is expected that no attempt will be made
to change the loadcell until normal working hours (Monday - Friday 0700-1530 hrs.). If
the Operator determines that the system must be changed prior to normal hours, then the
standby person must be called in (or oncoming shift operator can perform duties of
"second"). Lq addition, the Operations Supervisor or other member of plant management
must be called to acz a "third" party.
This is potentially the most 'dangerous job related function that operators must perform.
Make sure that you are mentally and physically prepared and alert. If not, postpone the
job. Get all tools and parts ready prior to starting the job.
· Knife
· Cylinder turning wrench (included in "B" kit).
· Lead washers
· Ammonia
· Valve wrench
· Yoke wrench
Breathing apparatus
It /x mamlatorv that a Self-Contained-Breathing-Apparatus (SCBA) or a tethered
breathing apparatus be employed when changing cylinders. Specific instructions follow.
Action stet~s:
Note: The following is assumed for changing a load cell holding one or two cylinders.
Each action step must be carried out on each individual cylinder before proceeding to the
next step.
1. Close roll-up door at north end of pump room. Keep the chlorine storage room door
open. Notify plant personnel.
2. Position tethered air supply tank outside chlorine room door. Hook up line and mask.
Test mask for proper operation. Check SCBA if utilizing.
3. Make sure all tools are laid out in the general work area (usually on the floor in front
of' the cylinder(s) to be worked on. Verify which loadcell needs to be changed with
your partner. Prepare documentation.
4. Once everything is in place, close the tank, manifold, and whip valve(s). Remember
that each valve should rotate one complete turn for full closure.
5. At this point, the lead changer will don a charged SCBA or the tethered mask. The
"second" will wait outside the chlorine room and open the air supply tank valve if the
tethered unit is being used. The "lead" will crack open the yoke connection to the
chlorine tank valve and listen for any chlorine leakage. He/she will also test for
leakage with the supplied ammonia bottle. Once it is determined that there is no
leakage with the yoke(s) disconnected, the "lead" can then remove his/her breathing
device and complete the change out with the "second". If the whips need to be
changed, the breathing device will be worn until they are also completed.
6. Loosen the yoke completely and replace the tank valve cap on each cylinder. Replace
the protective hood for each cylinder and release the securing strap.
7. Remove the cylinder(s) with the electric chlorine hoist from the loadcells while the
"second" assures that the whip does not catch on the cylinder. Place the empty
cylinder(s) on trunions located along the east wall with the hoods facing west.
Inspect the whips during this period to determine if they require replacing.
8. Use the hoist to move full cylinder(s) back on the load cell. At no time during off
loading of empties or loading of fulls should an operator ever lift a cylinder over
another if at all possible. The current system, which includes stocking a limited
number of cylinders, should make it feasible to only lif~ a cylinder 1 -2 feet off the
floor. Do Not Ever stand under a cylinder or be in any position that would unduly
endanger anyone if the hoist were to fail. The "second" will assist in the safe
operation of moving the cylinders by spotting for possible hazards.
9. Lower the full cylinder(s) gently on the empty loadcell. Remove the protective
hood(s). With the hood(s) removed, use the cylinder turning tool supplied from the
"B" kit to rotate the cylinder into position. The correct position is obtained when an
imaginary vertical tine connects both valves of the cylinder.
10. The plant only uses gaseous chlorine. This mandates that only the "top" valve of a
cylinder, once set in place, is to be used. Check to make sure the top valve stem is in
the "closed" posit'ion. Also check to make sure that the packing gland nut is not
unusually loose. Tighten if necessary.
11. With the cylinder(s) in the proper position, secure the cylinder(s) with the straps. The
"second" will now move outside of the room again while the "lead" dons his/her
breathing apparatus. He/she shall then loosen the top tank valve cap(s). If there is no
leakage, the SCBA may be removed and the "second" may re-enter. The old lead
washers are normally still attached to the seat of the yoke. These must be removed
and the surfaces clean. The surface of the tank valve must also be clean. New lead
washer(s) are then installed on the yoke seat and hand tightened onto the cylinder(s)
valve. Once the alignment is proper, the manufacturer supplied valve wrench is used
to torque the yoke and washer(s) in place. Apply enough torque to slightly
mushroom the lead washer along the outside of the yoke seat.
12. Once tightened, the "lead" dons the breathing apparatus again, and momentarily
breaks open the top, connected tank valve. He/she should listen for leakage and
check with the ammonia. Once the connections are determined to be sealed the
manifold and whip valves are also opened one turn. Again check for leaks. Set the
loadcell scale to the new weight.
13. Clean the area, put the tools away, and complete all documentation.
Procedure for Responding to a Chlorine Leak
Key personnel have been trained in the use of self-contained breathing apparatus
(SCBA). These employees are expected to know how to use and the location ofatl the
SCBA units. It is the responsibility of the department supervisors to ensure this
compliance.
There are nine, 30 minute Survivair brand SCBAs at the following locations:
Control room (5 dedicated to the Operators and 1 for communal use)
Outside the locker room downstairs (1 communal)
Oswell Pumping Facility (l communal)
i- B- 122 service vehicle (1 communal)
Chlorine leaks can occur in many different forms, situations, and conditions. Because of
this, no single event response can be completely preplanned. However, a comprehensive
response plan can establish the broad strokes necessary to provide proper methods and
procedures to ensure the safety of the employees, public, and the ability of staff to secure
any potential leak.
A chlorine leak will either occur during normal working hours when support personnel
are readily available or during the off hours including weekends and holidays. The
following response plan addresses both situations.
Leaks durin~ normal work hours
The duty Opera[or is normally the initial person who is notified and realizes there is a
leak. It is his/her responsibility, upon notification (via alarm or other communication), to
verify that a leak exists. It maybe appropriate during this initial period to begin
evacuation notification to staff and/or the public if they are in the area.
Immediate notification of the plant supervisory staff and management must be initiated.
However, it must be remembered that the duty Operator is designated as in-charge of any
leak until relieved by a Grade 5 in-charge. The Maintenance Supervisor (currently a
grade IH certificate holder) may also assume the duties of Grade 5 in-charge if none of
the Grade 5's are available or if delegated. The WPF Superintendent or the Grade 5 in-
charge will be the designated "Kesponse Manager" (R/M). This person will not leave the
area until the situation is corrected or unless he/she relinquishes and delegates the R/M
responsibilities to another Grade 5 in-charge.
The R/M will initiate and be responsible for actions to implement the following:
>- Evacuate all non-essential personnel to areas up wind or offthe facility.
>- Leak assessment. This will typically involve the R/M, duty Operator,
Operations Supervisor, and the Maintenance Supervisor. Other staff may be
included.
> Assemble a response team. Delegate and delineate responsibilities.
> Establish a staging and decontamination area.
> Establish communication links between "lead response" personnel and K/M
and also between R/M and outside parties (ie: Agency, Fire Department, etc.).
>. Assure that all activities involved in the response are done in a safe and
efficient manner. This includes the proper use of SCBAs, glove, suits, tether
lines, and other specified safety items.
>- Repairs are to commence only upon RAM authorization and proper briefing of
lead and attendant personnel.
> Verify that the leak is repaired.
>- Assure that all mop-up and closure procedures, including proper debriefing
and documentation are completed.
The duty Operator will normally be assigned as a primary response person. Because the
treatment plant may still be operational, it is expected that the Operations Supervisor will
assume operational duties during the response period, fi.the Operator is not assigned as a
primary response person, then he/she will remain on operation duty.
In addition to the duty Operator, all SCBA trained California DOHS Treatment Operator
certified grade II plant staffor higher personnel will be expected to respond in a lead or
support role as assigned by the R/M.
Leaks during off hours
Leaks during off:hours, which include holidays and weekends? pose the greatest possible
response problems due to chlorine leaks because of the lack of available plant support
personnel.
If the Operator detects a leak, he/she is to attempt to establish if it is a small or large leak.
(Do NOT attempt to enter an area or room with a chlorine leak!!!) Historically, leaks
have been minor involving loose packing glands on tank valves, loose or improperly
installed whips, or cracked PVC fittings.
Assuming it is a minor leak that should pose no immediate danger to the employee or the
public, the Operator is to contact the Stand-By personnel and wait until he/she arrives
before entering into the leak area to make repairs. The Operations Supervisor (in his/her
absence any of the other Supervisors must be contacted) must then be called and notified
of the situation. That Supervisor will decide upon the circumstances and the input from
the Operator whether to standby or respond to the plant. Once the standby person (and
possibly the Supervisor) arrives, the Operator and standby person will follow all safety
procedures and make the repairs. Once the repairs are made, the Operator will notify the
Supervisor that the situation has been resolved and stand down. The duty. Operator will
fully document the event in both the daily log and in a memo to the WPFS and
Operations Supervisor.
(
Irthe event constitutes a major leak, the Operator will initiate call out of the stand-by
personnel, the Operations ttnd Maintenance Supervisor, and the WPF Superintendent.
Response personnel will be called in to the plant'to assist in any repairs. Upon direction
from the WPFS or Grade 5 in-charge(P/M), the Operator will begin notification of the
ID4 Manager, Agency General Manager, Kern County Fire Department, California
Highway Patrol, and any other agencies directed by the WPFS or R/M.
Once on the scene, the WPFS or Grade 5 (R/M) in-charge will establish and initiate the
same outline of procedures as outlined in the section dealing with leaks during normal
work hours.
Callinl~ m'ocedures
All maintenance, supervisors, managers, standby, and the Administrative Assistant
(Kathy Brookey) have pagers. When attempting to contact these personnel use the code
//1515911. Cellular phones are assigned to the ID4 Manager, WPFS, and the
Maintenance Supervisor.
Documentation (Operatio,~s)
The Operations Supervisor is responsible for making sure that the following minimum
information is properly documented in the daily log following a chlorine leak event.
> The relativ, e size, location, and duration of the event.
)- The estimated amount of lost chemical.
>- Wind direction and speed (use windsock).
> Ambient temperature and moisture (humid vs. dry conditions).
~- Estimate the size of the plume and try to plot on a map.
>- List primary response personnel and who was in charge.
~- List notifications.
-- Describe repair work accomplished.
The purification plant Safety Coordinator shall be responsible for the formal
documentation and report on any chlorine leak event. This documentation shall as a
minimum include a detailed accounting of the event including evaluations of response
efficiency, ~:actors leading up to the event, and recommendations for follow-up
requirements. The intbrmation must contain material needed to assist the WPFS in
properly submitting reports to regulatory agencies.
Primary Resl)onse Team Requirements
A major leak will minimally require three members. This will include the RaM and two
qualified response team members. The following is the minimum requirements necessary
for a staff member to be qualified to perform the duties ora "primary response person".
~- Must possess a grade II DOHS treatment certificate.
.?

Must be familiar and be trained in the use ora "B" chlorine repair kit.
lVlust be familiar with and trained in the use ora SCBA.
lMust be trained in "Confined Space" requirements
Must be attentive and responsive to direction from RM.
Equipment
Cabinets are provided for the labeled storage of necessary equipment to adequately and
safely respond to chlorine leaks. Recommended personnel clothing should always include
long sleeve shirts, long pants, and safety shoes/boots. Mandatory and recommended
agency supplied equipment includes but is not inclusive to the following.
Goggles and face shields.
Rubber boots.
Rubber gloves.
SCBAs.
Level "A" suit.
Disposable response suits.

Training must be real life as practically as possible. D4 personnel shall train
both on site and at the KCFD training grounds with a ton cylinder with water
pressurized scenarios.
Fitness tests are to be conducted on each potential team member including
luug capacity testing at the Agency doctor.
Proper documentation is to be maintained and recorded. The plant Safety
Coordinator is responsible and will be filed by the D4 Administrative
Assistant.
Chorine Response and Safety Plan Responsibility
The HCG Purification Plant Safety Coordinator will be responsible to the Water ,
Production Facilities Superintendent for the implementation and continued efficient
application of this chlorine response training program and will communicate with the
WPFS regarding chlorine safety at all times.
