with industry to obtain the necessary data on the be-
havior of pollutants in the municipal system to justify a
relaxation of BAT pretreatment  requirements for speci-
fic pollutants will be discussed.

The independent session for industrial attendees will
present the necessary background for working effec-
tively with municipalities to devise a local plan which
will meet national environmental requirements in the
most cost effective manner. The basic operating princi-
ples of municipal systems 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 and a
panel discussion which will enable all groups to ex-
change 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 Tech-
nical handouts containing the data and information
presented at the seminar will be distributed at no
charge to seminar attendees.
