Consultation should include the water agencies and water boards,
regional and state, that govern pollutants.  Permitting includes a
mitigation process.  When a source point is known, that mitigation
liability should be identified with Responsible Parties.

Under the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board MS4
Permit, Enhanced Watershed Management Plans compliance estimates
are extremely expensive.  This project is within the Upper Los
Angeles River Watershed Management Group. You may want to review
these plans at:

Any Drinking Water storage facilities should be addressed with the
Water Suppliers.

Use of Rainwater is affected and should be taken into
consideration.  Pollutants may not appear immediately but through
washing down.

Geology and soil conditions are underplayed and should gain a more
prominent role for compliance.  Rock formation conditions are not
factors known in injections.  There is ongoing research in the
arena of fracking.  If soil and/or rock conditions release
contaminants over a period of time, that factor should be taken
into consideration in the mitigation process.
