Sediment. Extraneous matter or sediment in milk includes cow hair, dirt, manure, dust, vegetable matter and insects. Bacteria accompanies sediment into the milk, resulting in contamination. The presence of sediment in milk can affect the taste, appearance and quality of manufactured products. The two samples the driver takes daily will be used to do a random test for each fifteen-day period. This will generate a PASS/FAIL result. If the result is FAIL, then the supplier will be tested every pick-up until the situation is rectified. More than three FAIL tests will give the supplier a downgrade in quality.
Sediment. Owner will make accommodation for the removal and disposal of all the accumulated pollutants and sediments. Temporary storage will be provided onsite in a reserved area(s). The sediment will need to be disposed of in an appropriate manner within two weeks after being removed from the storm drain system.
Sediment. Addressing ecotoxicological impacts on sediment-dwelling organisms (benthic biota) requires the incorporation of an additional compartment into the existing framework. Based on the evaluation of maturity, quality, and availability of existing approaches for addressing sediment in multimedia fate modeling, a sediment compartment is a potentially important addition to the proposed framework, particularly in light of persistent substances with a potential to build up high exposure concentrations in sediments and related organisms. In addition, for certain chemicals such as cyclic siloxanes, sediments provide potential transfer pathways for bioaccumulation (Wang et al. 2013). Required data for including ecotoxicity to sediment- dwelling organisms are becoming more readily available and could be sufficient to become part of LCIA. If sediment toxicity effects could be estimated by ecotoxicity data for pelagic species (e.g., via equilibrium partitioning for nonpolar organic chemicals), such an inclusion would put a stronger emphasis on sediment-binding chemicals of concern, as just mentioned. Because aquatic sediment belongs to aquatic ecosystems, we suggest considering effects on benthic and sediment species for integration into 2 overall aquatic ecotoxicity impact scores (i.e., freshwater and marine).
Sediment. Selenium already contained in sediments in the Drain is a source of concern because flows may suspend and transport sediments; selenium may migrate into the water column; and sediments may act as a sink, and selenium may concentrate into sediment. Under normal operations, flows will be slow enough to not cause sediment movement. Monitoring activities will detect any movements or selenium migration. In the event that selenium in sediments migrates into the water column, such selenium will be measured as part of the monitoring program which will, among other things, measure selenium levels in Mud Slough downstream of the Drain (Site D). Sediments will be removed well before composite concentrations indicate hazardous material values.

Freezing Point The freezing point test is used to detect any added water. Adverse freezing point values may either indicate the presence of extraneous water or occasionally poor nutritional status of the cow or herd. In most cases a freezing point under -0.517, will indicate the presence of extraneous water, over and above that of the natural water content of milk. BPD may test for both freezing point at times throughout the year to ensure customer requirements are met. Sensory Test When picking up milk from a supplier, tanker drivers have been instructed to complete a sensory test on the milk. The tanker driver will check that the supplier’s milk meets the following criteria: • White to cream in colour • Free from foreign matter, taints and coagulation • That it has no abnormal odours. This test is at the discretion of the tanker driver and they are given the authority by BPD to reject any loads of milk that do not meet the criteria above. The supplier’s Field Services Officer will be informed and will come out and check that the supplier’s milk is fit to be collected. If so, then the tanker driver will return and pick up the milk. The supplier will be penalised at the company’s discretion for any loads that fail the sensory test. Graph 1.

Sediment. Driveways, parking areas, and rooftops are expected to be common sources of sediment due to wear.
Sediment. The contractor shall remove and dispose of sediment when accumulations reach approximately one-half the fence height, or sooner when directed by the engineer. If required by heavy sediment loading, a second silt fence shall be installed as directed by the engineer.
