Purpose

The U. S. EPA has established guidelines for prelreatment
regulations pertaining to industries thai are discharging to
municipal systems. These guidelines provide for the control
of 65 pollutants identified under Section 307 (a) of the 1977
Clean Water Act. Explanation of the new regulations as well
as providing specific guidance for economical compliance by
both industry and municipalities will be the essential goal of
the 2-day seminar.

Reservations for attendance will be required as space is
limited. If you are interested in attending, fill out the
registration blank on the back of this brochure and mail to the
address listed on the registration blank. As soon as your
acceptance has been verified you will be sent a reservation
notification and information on local accommodations as
well as final seminar arrangements.

SUMMARY OF SEMINAR PROGRAM

The first morning will be devoted solely to regulatory aspects
of the pretreatment guidelines. Key federal Officials
involved in development of the pretreatment regulations will
be the key speakers. Attendees will have ample opportunity
to question these speakers on the general legal aspects
promulgated by the pretreatment regulations.

The independent session for municipal attendees will focus
on obtaining the data upon which a pretreatment program can
be established to meet EPA enforcement and construction
grant requirements. Guidance on conductioning industrial
surveys, developing equitable user charges, and self
monitoring will be given. The impact of toxic pollutants on
the municipal treatment system will be discussed and
guidance for approaching the sludge disposal problem m
cooperation with local industry will be given. In addition,
methods for working with industry to obtain the necessary
data on the behavior of pollutants in the municipal system to
justify a relaxation of BAT pretreatment requirements for
specific pollutants will be discussed.

The independent session for industrial attendees w ill present
the necessary background for working effectively with
municipalities to devise a local plan which will meet national
environmental requirements in the most cost effective
manner. The basic operating principles of municipal sy stems
and the effects of industrial wastes will be briefly discussed
Guidance will be given for obtaining data jointly with the
municipality on the removability of industrial pollutants
which might allow relaxation of BAT pretreatment
requirements. Special attention will be given to working with
the municipality to devise a sludge disposal mechanism
Finally, all sources of tax relief and financial assistance will
be discussed along with advice for devising a financial
strategy

A final joint session will present a case history, a panel
discussion by state and Federal EPA representatives
followed by a discussion which will enable all groups to
exchange ideas with a panel of industrial and municipal
representatives.

Ample time will be allowed for questions and answers of the
various speakers and their presentations Technical handouls
containing the data and information presented at the seminal
w ill be distributed at no charge to seminar attendees
