21 with the provisions of this Consent Decree and the General Permit.
22

14.

Rain Gauge/Sensor. Ralphs will continue to employ its current rain

23 gauge sensor. The sensor activates in rain events greater than 0.1 inches and redirects
24 storm water that would otherwise discharge to the sanitary sewer. Ralphs maintains
25 records of each time the system is used. If Ralphs fails to collect and analyze
26 samples from four QSEs during a Reporting Year, Ralphs shall make these records

1 request said documents no more than once during each calendar year of this Consent
2 Decree. Data from the rain gauge/sensor shall be conclusive of precipitation
3 quantities in events greater that 0.1 inches and timing for purposes of this Consent
4 Decree provided, however, that the Parties agree that the rain gauge data shall not be
5 conclusive of whether a discharge of storm water associated with industrial activities
6 occurred or when such discharge commenced for the purposes of determining Ralphs
7 compliance with its obligations under the General Permit or this Consent
8 Decree. Rain gauge data and all communications between the Settling Parties related
9 thereto, described herein shall be deemed confidential. Ralphs shall not be required to
10 upload the rain gauge data to SMARTS. LA Waterkeeper shall not use the rain gauge
11 data for any purpose other than as a confidential and informational communication,
12 or a necessary as evidence in any dispute resolution proceeding.

c.

In addition, rain event and monthly inspections described in

21

paragraph paragraphs 24 and 25 below, PPT personnel will

the SWPPP site map, then appropriate BMPs will be deployed in

13

compliance with the General Permit.

14

B.

SAMPLING AT THE FACILITY

15

16.

Ralphs shall develop a monitoring program consistent with General

16 Permit Section XI. During the Term, Ralphs shall collect samples of storm water
17 discharge when feasible based upon weather, safety conditions, and adequate
18 amounts of discharge from each Discharge Point to permit such collection from each
19 Discharge Point from at least four (4) Qualifying Storm Events, including, at
20 minimum, the first two (2) Qualifying Storm Events during the first half of the
21 Reporting Year and the first (2) two Qualifying Storm Events during the second half
22 of the Reporting Year. Such sampling shall take place within the four (4) hour period
23 required by the General Permit § XI.B.5. Should Ralphs be unable to collect the
24 requisite number of samples, it shall provide a written explanation pursuant to
25 General Permit § XVI.
26

17.

Sampling Parameters: All samples collected pursuant to this Consent

27 Decree shall be analyzed, at minimum, for the parameters listed in Table 1. Should
28 Defendant conduct sampling for any additional parameters or cease sampling for any
9
CONSENT DECREE

1 of the parameters listed in Table 1 that are listed in 40 C.F.R. § 131.38 and/or in the
2 General Permit at the sampling locations described in Ralphs’ then-current SWPPP
3 pursuant to Section XI.B of the General Permit that would otherwise be reportable on
4 SMARTS for any reason, including without limitation as a result of changed
5 operations, a revised pollutant source assessment, or a new mandate from a regulatory
6 agency, such parameter shall be treated as if listed in Table 1 for the purposes of this
7 Consent Decree, including the ARS requirements below, and the Settling Parties shall
8 meet and confer regarding the applicable Table 1 limit for such purposes.
9

18.

Laboratory and Holding Time. Except for pH samples, delivery of all

10 samples to a California state certified environmental laboratory for analysis within
11 allowable hold times when feasible to do so, pursuant to 40 C.F.R. Part 136 and
12 Section XI.B.10 of the General Permit. Analysis of pH will be completed onsite using
13 a calibrated portable instrument for pH in accordance with the manufacturer’s
14 instructions.
15

19.

Detection Limit: Ralphs shall request that the laboratory use analytical

16 methods adequate to detect the individual contaminants at or below the values
17 specified in the General Permit and Table 1 below.
18

20.

Reporting: Defendant shall upload and certify on SMARTS the complete

19 laboratory results, including a copy of the Quality Assurance/Quality Control and the
20 laboratory report, for all samples collected at the Facility pursuant to Paragraph 16
21 above within ten (10) days of receiving the laboratory results, and shall notify LA
22 Waterkeeper that the foregoing has been uploaded to SMARTS and certified within
23 five (5) days of certification.

Table 1 Exceedances. An “Exceedance” of Table 1 is defined as follows:

21

(a) where the concentration of any pollutant in any two (2) storm water samples from

22

the same Discharge Point at the Facility during a Reporting Year exceed an annual

23

numeric limit contained in Table 1;3 and/or (b) where the concentration of any

The numeric limits listed in Table 1 are for reference only, and the Table 1 limit for such parameter shall be the then-

26 effective limit provided by the applicable source, e.g., if the source for TSS is listed as its NAL and the annual NAL for
TSS is either increased to 110 mg/L or decreased to 90 mg/L, such new annual NAL, and not 100 mg/L, shall be used as

27 the Table 1 limit for the purposes of this Consent Decree as if set forth herein.

5 required herein, reveal one (1) or more Exceedances, as defined in Paragraph 22
6 above not previously addressed in a prior ARS for the same Reporting Year, Ralphs
7 shall submit a plan to LA Waterkeeper for reducing the level of the applicable
8 pollutants from the applicable drainage area to the numeric limits specified in Table 1
9 (“Analyte Reduction Strategy” or “ARS”) on the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
10

a.

The complete ARS, using the template attached hereto as Exhibit

11

B, must be submitted to LA Waterkeeper within thirty (30) days

12

of Ralphs’s receipt of the laboratory report demonstrating the

13

Exceedance, as defined in Paragraph 22 above.4 In the event of

14

exceedances for multiple analytes and/or for multiple Sample

15

Locations, Ralphs shall submit a single ARS addressing multiple

16

analytes and multiple Sample Locations. Ralphs shall not be

17

required to submit more than one (1) ARS for each half of the

18

Reporting Year.

19

b.

BMP Implementation. The ARS’s time schedule(s) for

20

implementation of any BMPs shall ensure that Ralphs implements

21

all BMPs identified in the ARS as soon as possible, but in no

22

event later than ninety (90) days following the ARS becoming

23

“final” pursuant to Paragraph 23.d. below, unless a later

24

implementation date is mutually agreed upon by the Settling

25
26 copper on December 28, 2024 and on March 15, 2025; or (iii) a sample from Sample Location #1 exceeding the 0.0332
mg/L standard for copper on December 28, 2024, and a sample from Sample Location #2 exceeding the 0.0332 mg/L

27 standard for zinc on March 15, 2024.
4

The ARS discussed in this Consent Decree is a separate and distinct requirement from any “Action Plan” or

28 Exceedance Response Actions discussed in the General Permit, though actions taken to comply with the ARS may be
used by Ralphs to demonstrate compliance with the General Permit.
12

Occasionally typographical errors, unit reporting errors, or incomplete results are
reported and should be easily detected. These errors need to be identified, clarified, and
corrected quickly by the laboratory. Especially note data that is an order of magnitude
or more different than similar locations, or is inconsistent with previous data from the
same location.
&KHFN ODERUDWRU\ 4$4& UHVXOWV
EPA establishes QA/QC checks and acceptable criteria for laboratory analyses. These
data are typically reported along with the sample results. Evaluate the reported QA/QC
data to check for contamination (method, field, and equipment blanks), precision
(laboratory matrix spike duplicates), and accuracy (matrix spikes and laboratory control
samples). When QA/QC checks are outside acceptable ranges, the laboratory must flag
the data, and usually provides an explanation of the potential impact to the sample
results.

VDPSOHV ZKHUH DSSURSULDWH
Sample re-analysis should only be undertaken when it appears that some part of the
QA/QC resulted in a value out of the accepted range. Sample results may not be
discounted unless the analytical laboratory identifies the required QA/QC criteria were
not met and confirms this in writing.
