EPA provides grants to States and communities to construct municipal sewage treatment plants; these grants will reach $18 billion under the Amendments. A critical element of this broad, new national program for clean water is a system of effluent limitations and permits applicable to dischargers of wastes into navigable waters. EPA and the States issue waste-water discharge permits to individual factories, power plants, refineries, etc. based on national effluent limitations guidelines. These guidelines govern the amount, and the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of effluent that industry may dump into waterways. (Effluent controls and the permit system also apply across-the-board to municipal sewage treatment plants.) The system of limitations and permits is designed to help America reach two great goals of the 1972 Act—by July 1983, water that is clean enough for swimming, boating, and protection of fish, shellfish and wildlife, and by 1985, no more discharges of pollutants into the Nation's waters. This booklet—through a series of questions and answers—discusses how effluent limitations guidelines and new source performance standards for industry are put together, their complex nature, and the scope of their application to industry. It explains how outside technical experts and the general public may participate in the development of these guidelines and standards. It also tells where the documents which form the basis of the guidelines and standards may be obtained or examined. ------- What is an effluent limitation guideline? An effluent limitation guideline sets forth the degree of reduction of a pollutant that is attainable through the application of various levels of technology. The guidelines are developed by EPA based on the total body of known information on effluents from a particular industry. What is an effluent limitation? An effluent limitation is a restriction on the amount of a pollutant that may be released from a point source into a body of water. These limitations, based on EPA's effluent limitations guidelines, are spelled out in the discharge permits each industry must obtain in order to discharge pollutants into the Nation's waterways. What is a point source? A point source is any discernible, confined conduit, including pipes, ditches, channels, sewers, tunnels, vessels and other floating craft, from which pollutants are discharged. What are new source performance standards? New source performance standards reflect the greatest degree of effluent reduction which EPA determines to be achievable through the application of the "best available demonstrated control technology, processes, operating methods, or other alternatives, including, where practicable, a standard permitting no discharge of pollutants." They apply to any new point sources (buildings, structures, facilities, or installations from which pollutants are discharged), on which construction begins after the publication of proposed regulations prescribing standards of performance for those sources. Do effluent limitations alter our approach to pollution control? Yes. The thrust of enforcement is shifted from water quality standards, which regulate the amount of pollutants in a given body of water, to effluent limitations, which regulate the amount of pollutants put into the water from specific point sources. Also, each industry must now monitor its own discharges of pollutants, and submit periodic reports to control agencies. If the limitations do not achieve a desired water quality for a certain waterway, more stringent restrictions on the effluent may be imposed by the State or EPA. How does the permit system work? Effluent limitations are the basis for wastewater discharge permits issued by EPA or the States. The permits are issued under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), a national program established under the 1972 Water Act. Each industrial, agricultural, and publicly-owned point source discharger must apply for and obtain a permit. If a discharger cannot comply immediately with the proposed limitations, the permit will include a schedule setting forth specific dates when the required reduction of pollutants must be achieved. Many States have been authorized by EPA to run their own permit systems, which are monitored and reviewed periodically by EPA. What is the scope of NPDES? NPDES affects tens of thousands of industries, municipal sewage treatment plants, and agricultural sources, including feedlots. It also applies to acid mine drainage from surface and subsurface coal mines where the drainage is from a point source, and to working oil rigs on land and offshore. _ By the spring of 1975, effluent limitations had been set for, and permits issued to, nearly all major industrial dischargers in the Nation. What are the penalties for non-compliance? Non-compliance with NPDES permits carries severe civil and criminal penalties. Civil violations carry penalties not exceeding $10,000 ------- per day. Willful or negligent violations can bring fines of up to $25,000 a day and one year in prison for the first offense, and up to $50,000 a day and two years in prison for subsequent violations. What control technologies will be employed to achieve effective effluent reduction by industry? What is the timetable? By July 1, 1977, all industries discharging wastes into navigable waters must achieve "best practicable control technology currently available," according to the Act. This control technology represents the average of the best existing waste treatment performance within each industry category or subcategory. In categories of industry where waste treatment performance is generally inadequate, EPA may, in compensation, establish tougher effluent limitations, provided that the technology necessary to clean up is available at a reasonable cost. In most plants, effluent limitations may well be met by controlling in-plant technology rather than by building additions to treatment plants. In-plant controls may include conserving water, controlling leaks, purchasing better quality raw materials, substituting chemical additives or changing manufacturing processes. By July 1, 1983, the "best available technology economically achievable" must be in force. This technology will be based on the very best control and treatment measures that have been developed or are capable of being developed within the appropriate industrial category or subcategory. In meeting the two deadlines, dischargers are required to treat their wastes to a degree made possible by the two technologies, but are not required to use any particular method or process of pollution control. A third level of treatment is established by the Act for new sources, such as factories, which are built after publication of proposed regulations prescribing a standard of performance. The Act describes this level of treatment as the "best available demonstrated controlled technology, processes, operating methods or other alternatives including, where practicable, a standard permitting no discharge of pollutants." In some cases, the new source performance standard may be somewhat more stringent than either the 1977 or 1983 limitation for existing sources because better systems for treating wastes can be built right into new plants. The selection of technology and hence the development of standards for 1977, 1983 and new sources include consideration of the economic impact of uniform compliance with resulting standards. ------- Table 1 Group I Industries Industrial Category Asbestos Manufacturing Builders Paper and Board Mills Canned & Preserved Fruits & Vegetable Processing Canned & Preserved Seafood Processing Cement Manufacturing Dairy Product Processing Electroplating Feedlots Ferroalloy Manufacturing Fertilizer Manufacturing Glass Manufacturing Grain Mills Inorganic Chemicals Manufacturing Iron & Steel Manufacturing Leather Tanning & Finishing Meat Product & Rendering Processing Nonferrous Metals Manufacturing Organic Chemicals Manufacturing Petroleum Refining Phosphate Manufacturing Plastics & Synthetic Materials Pulp, Paper and Paperboard Mills Rubber Processing Soap & Detergent Manufacturing Steam Electric Power Plants Sugar Processing Textile Mills Timber Products Processing Phase I Segments Building, Construction & Paper Builders Paper & Roofing Felt Citrus, Apple & Potatoes Catfish, Crab, Shrimp & Tuna Cement Manufacturing Dairy Product Processing Copper, Nickel, Chrome & Zinc Feedlots Smelting & Slag Processing Basic Fertilizer Chemicals Insulation Fiberglass Flat Glass Grain Processing Major Inorganic Products Steel Making Leather Tanning & Finishing Red Meat Processing Bauxite Refining Primary Aluminum Smelting Secondary Aluminum Smelting Major Organic Products Petroleum Refining Phosphorus-Derived Chemicals Synthetic Resins Unbleached Kraft & Semi- chemical Pulp Tire & Synthetic Soap & Detergent Manufacturing Steam Electric Power Plants Beet Sugar Cane Sugar Refining Textile Mills Plywood, Hardboard & Wood Preserving Phase II Segments Textile, Friction Materials, & Sealing Devices Major Significant Products Fish Meal, Salmon, Bottom Fish, Sardine, Herring, Clam, Oyster, Scallop, and Abalone Precious and Other Metal Plating Calcium Carbide Electrolytic Ferroalloys Formulated Fertilizer Pressed & Blown Glass Animal Feed, Breakfast Cereal, and Wheat Starch Significant Inorganic Products Forming & Finishing Foundries Processor Renderer Poultry Zinc Lead Primary Copper Smelting & Refining Secondary Copper Significant Organic Products Other Non-Fertilizer Phosphate Chemicals Synthetic Polymers Synthetic Resins—Addendum Bleached Kraft, Sulfite, Groundwood, Soda, Drink & Non-integrated Paper Mills Fabricated & Reclaimed Rubber Raw Cane Sugar Processing Wet Storage, Sawmills, Particleboard & Insulation Board ------- Table 2 Group II Industries Paint and Ink Converted Paper Fish Hatcheries Transportation Asphalt-Paving Auto and Other Laundries Water Supply Coal Mining Mineral Mining Petroleum and Gas Extraction Furniture Machinery and Machinery Products Ore Mining and Dressing Misc. Chemicals Misc. Foods and Beverages Concrete Products Clay and Gypsum Steam Supply What industries come under the effluent guidelines program? The Act identified a minimum of 28 categories (Group I) of industrial dischargers for which EPA was required to develop effluent limitations guidelines for existing sources, and standards of performance for new sources. In addition, the Act directed EPA to revise this list of categories and thus another 18 categories (Group II) were established. Because of the diversity of many of the 28 categories of dischargers designated as Group I priority, some of the industries were further divided into Phase I and Phase II segments. See Tables 1 and 2. What's involved in developing guidelines or standards? First, some basic technical factors must be considered: • cost of pollution control • age of the industrial facilities • manufacturing processes employed • environmental impact of pollution controls (other than water quality) • energy Because broad differences exist in discharges within each industrial category, EPA developed more than 500 subcategories. Guidelines and standards must be established for each of these subcategories. Studies are made of typical waste loads and of the available treatment and control technologies. The end result is a comprehensive analysis of the pollutants in discharges and identification of the substances to be controlled. The entire range of available control technology within each subcategory is identified from the least to the most efficient. Consideration also is given to technologies only in the development or pilot stage. An engineering analysis is made of each general level of technology to determine costs. The analysis includes estimates for investment, operation, maintenance, and energy. These studies identify the pollution reduction possible at a given cost level. They also provide the basis for an economic analysis of the impact of compliance with the alternative limitations under consideration. Where can the data used to develop effluent .limitations be found for a specific industry? The overall data necessary to establish guidelines and standards for an industrial category are collected and analyzed and published in two major studies—"Development Document for Effluent Limitations Guidelines and New Source Performance Standards" and "Economic Impact Analysis of Effluent Guidelines." The documents for each category are published by EPA for both proposed and final limitations and are released simultaneously with the proposed and final effluent regulations. What does the development document include? It provides information on the methods used in an industrial category to control pollutants to meet requirements of the Act. It reports the degree of reduction of pollutants in effluent that is attainable under various levels of control technology through 1983 and for new sources. Costs to industry are also estimated. What does the economic document include? It provides an analysis of the economic impact of compliance with ------- the limitations guidelines and standards identified in the development document, The focus of the analysis is on impacts to prices, production, employment, the community, industrial growth and foreign trade. Who prepares the documents? A mass of data must be obtained and evaluated by EPA before limitations guidelines or standards are proposed by the Agency. EPA has retained consulting contractors to provide studies on the best practicable and best available technology for an industrial category (draft development documents), and studies on the economic impact of the technologies on the category (economic document). EPA works closely with the contractors to provide a day-by-day evaluation of control problems and solutions. The technical contractor's report is considered to be a draft of the development document. It is subsequently revised by the Agency to become an EPA publication. The economic analysis however, remains a contractor's report and is considered along with any other information available to EPA regarding economic impact. Who reviews the contractors' completed drafts? There is intensive review of the contractors' draft development documents both inside and outside EPA. When the draft development documents are received by EPA, they are distributed immediately to external reviewers for critical analysis. These reviewers include State and territorial water or environmental departments, Federal agencies, public interest groups, environmental groups, and industries and trade associations directly concerned with effluent guidelines development. Comments are normally requested within 30 days. This gives EPA time to consider the comments while preparing proposed rule-making documents. EPA's review is by staff members and by the Effluent Standards and Water Quality Information Advisory Committee (ES & WQIAC). The Committee, established under the 1972 Act, and chosen from the scientific community by EPA's Administrator, provides, assesses, and evaluates scientific and technical information on effluent standards and toxic substances. The economic document for a category cannot be completed until the cost information in the draft development document has been received and reviewed. Therefore, the economic studies are not available for review by the public until regulations are actually proposed in the Federal Register. Both the development document limitations and guidelines, and the accompanying analysis are reviewed by other government agencies prior to proposal and promulgation. This process of internal and external review (see flow chart) is carried on simultaneously to meet the time constraints set forth in the Act. Are the contractors' draft development documents available to the public? Yes. They may be inspected at any of EPA's ten Regional Office libraries listed below or at EPA's Public Information Reference Unit in Washington, D.C.

The next step is to consider the comments and information received during the comment period and to incorporate consideration of the completed economic impact analysis. After the limitations are accepted as appropriate, the proposed regulation is published in the Federal Register. At the same time, development and economic documents are released in support of these proposed guidelines and standards. How does the public know when regulations are being proposed or promulgated? All proposed and promulgated regulations appear in the Federal Register which provides a uniform system for making regulations and legal notices issued by Federal agencies available to the public. Published daily, Monday through Friday (except holidays), the Federal Register is available in most libraries. Individual copies are available at 75 cents an issue from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Subscription rates are $50 per year, payable in advance. How does the Development Document which supports the proposed regulation differ from the contractors' draft Development Document? The document may differ from the drafts due to modifications made by EPA after reviewing the information and comments received from the internal and external review of the draft. Modifications may concern, particularly, assessment of practicability or availability of technology, and conclusions about effluent limitations guidelines and standards of performance for new sources. What is an Economic Analysis document? The economic document is actually the study submitted to EPA by the contractor. It is not an official EPA document, but has been carefully Draft Contractor Reports sent to EPA technical staff Industry associa- tions Professional organi- zations Government agencies Public interest groups ES&WQIAC Economic analysis begins Development of Pro- posed Effluent Limi- tations, Guidelines and Standards Economic analysis completed and reviewed Comments from industry and public analyzed Informal meetings with industry to clarify comments Development docu- ment revised as appropriate Final development of Effluent Limita- tions Guidelines and Standards Comments from industry and public analyzed Informal meetings with industry to clarify comments Final review by other Federal agencies Effluent Limitations Promulgation of final Guidelines and Standards Preamble summa- rizes all comments Preamble explains EPA action on com- ments; Notes changes from pro- posed regulation ------- reviewed by the agency. It receives the same consideration as the Development Document before and during the proposed rule making process. Are the economic and technical documents available to the public? Yes. The reports are routinely sent to the internal and external reviewers and anyone else who has requested to be added to the mailing list for specific proposed reports. EPA will mail copies to others upon request. To be included in the mailings, write to Distribution Officer, Effluent Guidelines Division (WH-552), EPA, Washington, D.C. 20460. Please indicate the specific documents (economic or development) you want by industrial category. EPA will send these as soon as the reports are available. After the guidelines and standards are promulgated in the Federal Register, final economic and development documents will be published. How does EPA solicit comments from the public? To meet deadlines in the Act and terms of a court order, the notices of proposed rule-making ask that formal public comments be submitted within 30 days of publication in the Federal Register. People on the mailing list receive copies of the development and economic documents supporting the proposed regulations. These documents reflect EPA's judgment as to what are the best, workable regulations. However, the documents are based in large part upon the initial draft reports of the contractors. The comment period is short, but the requirements of a court order issued by the District Court for the District of Columbia compel EPA to develop final regulations as expeditiously as possible. However, all information or comments, including, whenever possible, material received after the deadline, are considered by the Agency and may be the basis for appropriate amendments to promulgated regulations. What kind of comments does EPA especially invite? In addition to soliciting specific comments on the development and economic documents EPA also seeks data and guidance on how to resolve problems identified by the reviewer. For instance, comments that the Agency is acting on inadequate data should include, where possible, any additional appropriate data and should indicate how such data pertain to the development of the regulations. If comments question the approach taken in establishing an effluent limitation guideline or standard of performance, EPA solicits suggestions as to what alternative approach should be taken. Comments on the economic and technical reports, and their recommended guidelines and standards, bring a variety of issues to the Agency's attention prior to the publication of notices of proposed rule-making. Issues identified in this manner can be discussed and their resolutions explained in the notices of proposed rule-making. Unresolved issues are also specified in the notices. How should comments be submitted? Comments should be submitted in triplicate to the Distribution Officer, Effluent Guidelines Division (WH-552), EPA, Washington, D.C. 20460. All comments received before or after publication of the notices of proposed rule-making are available for inspection and copying at EPA's Public Information Reference Unit. Which regulations have been promulgated? Regulations for all 28 of the Group I, Phase I, industrial segments and 17 of the 19 Group I, Phase II, industries were promulgated by December 31, 1975. Regulations for the remaining Group I, as well as the Group II categories, were to be promulgated in 1976. 8 ------- Following is information on which regulations have been proposed or promulgated for the various industries. Where can final economic documents . be obtained? Final economic reports are distributed in both paper copy and - microfiche by the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), Spring- field, Virginia 22151. Table 5 lists the economic reports presently available through NTIS. Where can final development documents be obtained? Final development documents are submitted for printing at the time promulgated regulations appear in the Federal Register. They are usually available 10-12 weeks later from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402 (cite the industrial category, segment name, GPO stock number, and GPO catalog number when ordering). The final documents will subsequently be available from NTIS, in both paper copy and microfiche (specify the industry, segment, NTIS accession number and the format desired). See Table 6 for a list of development documents currently available through GPO and NTIS. NOTE: The contractors' reports, proposed development and economic documents, and final development documents are available for review in the EPA Regional Office libraries listed on page 7.
