Abstract:

This is a report of a survey of the Victor Wastewater Reclamation Authority Sewerage system, the sewage treatment plant, and effluent from the various operations at George AFB, California. The scope of work included the characterization of the wastewater from George AFB, as well as characterization of effluents from 29 oilwater separators servicing industrial operations on base, flow measurements at three locations on base, a microbiological evaluation of aeration basin foam, bench scale activated sludge studies, and a review of results from previous surveys. Recommendations 1 AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam should never be discharged to the sewer. 2 Programming for pretreatment should proceed at selected operations. 3 More waste and wastestream analysis be performed. 4 Upgrade waste accumulation points. 5 Implement an aggressive inspection program for oilwater separators. 6 Cut down on nonessential washing. Keywords Hazardous waste Pretreatment Air Force facilities.
