| Objectives | Collins Pine Company operates a sawmill and wood-burning cogeneration facility in Chester. The sawmill produces approximately 120 million board feet of lumber per year, and a net of 6-MW, which are sold on the market. They are bordered by the North Fork of the Feather River to the north, Highway 36 to the south, an open gravel area to the west, and an industrial area to the east. The Discharger owns three adjoining parcels of land totaling approximately 450 acres. The sawmill and power plant comprise approximately 100 acres. Approximately half of this portion of the facility is paved. Site grading and the storm drainage system direct sawmill and power plant storm water either to the eastern portion of the facility, where it percolates, to the southwestern portion of the facility where enters a drainage ditch, or to the southern portion of the facility where is exits the site via a drainage ditch that flows along the southern boundary eastward to a drainage swale. |
