USING THE SUMMARY
This Summary -is based on the Code of Federal Regulations, July 1, 1976,
Title 40 - Protection of the Environment, Subchapter N - Effluent Guidelines
and Standards, Parts 405-460, and subsequent regulations published in the
Federal Register through January 1977.
In preparing the Summary, NEIC used various editorial methods (explained
below) to streamline the information found in the regulations. We therefore
recommend that you use this Summary as a desk reference and that you consult
the Federal Register for official application of limitations.
To increase the usefulness of the Summary for you, the user, NEIC will
appreciate receiving your suggestions regarding both technical information
and format as we update the Summary periodically (NEIC address on front cover),
UNITS Effluent limitation units are given in the left column in English form with footnoted metric
equivalents where appropriate. The unit used with the first effluent characteristic entered
on a page is not repeated if it applies to the other characteristics on that page. A new unit
is introduced only when an effluent characteristic requires it.
pH Although the pH limitation applies to all Subparts which present limitations for BOD, COD, TSS,
etc., it is listed only when its value differs from aithin the range of 6.0-9.0.
PROCESS WASTEWATER is not defined in this Summary for each Part; consult the Federal Register for specific definitions.
1T
BOXHEADS
ABBREVIATIONS
The Summary applies uniform paragraph designations [(1), (a), etc.] across all three categories of
BPT, BAT, and NS. Since these designations do not fully correspond to the regulations, consult
the Federal Register for official use.
Symbols are used in the Summary to describe limitations which are expressed throughout the
regulations by these various phrases: not to exceed (HTE); shall not exceed; not to exceed at
any time; not to exceed the temperature of cooled water acceptable for return to the heat
producing process and in no event greater than X; X or greater.
Various boxheads are used throughout the regulations to express effluent limitations.
Summary uses those boxheads in abbreviated form, as explained here.

In any case in which the applicant can demonstrate that the chloride
ion concentration in the effluent exceeds 1,000 mg/l (1,000 ppm)3 the
Regional Administrator may substitute TOO as a parameter in lieu of
COD. Effluent limitations for TOO shall be based on effluent data
from the plant correlating TOO to BOD. If in the judgment of the
Regional Administrator, adequate correlation data are not available,
the effluent limitations for TOO shall be established at a ratio of

(a) Subject to the provisions of (b) there shall be no discharge
of process wastewater pollutants to navigable waters.
(b) During any calendar month there may be discharged from the
overflow of a process wastewater impoundment either a volume
of process wastewater equal to the difference between the
precipitation for that month that falls within the impoundment
and the evaporation within the impoundment for that month, or
if greater, a volume of process wastewater equal to the difference
between the mean precipitation for that month that falls within
the impoundment and the mean evaporation for that month as
established by the NCC} NOAA, for the area in which such im-

structed and operated to contain the precipitation from

have been placed in operation or are under construction

may be discharged in blowdown from cooling ponds provided
the temperature at which the blowdown is discharged does
not exceed at any time the lowest temperature or recirculated
cooling water prior to the addition of the make-up water.
(3) BAT: heat may be discharged in blowdown (overflow) from
a cooling pond or cooling lake where the owner or operator
of a unit otherwise subject to this limitation can demon-
strate that a cooling pond, or cooling lake in service
or under construction as of the effective date of this
regulation, is used to cool recirculated cooling water
before it is recirculated to the main condensers.
(4) BAT: heat may be discharged where the owner or operator
of a unit otherwise subject to this limitation can
demonstrate that sufficient land for the construction

towers is not available (after consideration of alternate
land use assignments') on the premises or on adjoining
property under the ownership or control of the owner or

in blowdown exceeds 30,000 mg/l and land not owned or
controlled by the owner or operator as of March 4, 1974,
is located within 150 m (500 ft) in the prevailing downwind
direction of every practicable location for mechanical
draft cooling towers and that no alternate recirculating
cooling system is practicable.
(6) BAT: heat may be discharged where the owner or operator
of a unit otherwise subject to this limitation can demon-
strate to the regional administrator or State, if the
State has NPDES permit issuing authority, that the plume
which must necessarily emit from a cooling tower would
cause a substantial hazard to commercial aviation and
that no alternate recirculated cooling water system is
