Summary
City Manager Daryl George reported seven odor complaints to South Coast AQMD in the last two weeks with no notices of violation; fence line monitoring audits on June 18–19 will take three stations offline for about four hours and H2S levels will be monitored with portable Accurilog devices.
City Manager Daryl George provided an update on recent activity at the Hyperion facility during the June 17 council meeting.
George said the South Coast Air Quality Management District had received seven odor complaints in the past two weeks and issued no notice of violation for nuisance odors. He told council that electrical maintenance on the morning of June 17 caused brief power outages at parts of the facility and that fence line monitoring audits scheduled for June 18 and June 19 will take three monitoring stations offline for about four hours each day. During the audits, H2S levels will be monitored using portable Accurilog devices. George also said the facility would undergo electrical maintenance on the morning of June 18.
The update directed residents and interested parties to the city's Hyperion web page at elsegunda.org/hyperion for more information. No enforcement action or remediation measures were announced at the meeting; South Coast AQMD had not issued notices of violation for the reported odor complaints at the time of the update.
