                          FOREWORD
     In response to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act
Amendments of 1972  (P.L. 92-500), this country has under-
taken an unprecedented program of cleaning up our Nation's
waters.  There will be a substantial investment by Federal,
State, and local government as well as by private industry
in treatment works to achieve the goals of the Act.  It is
important that this investment in publicly owned treatment
works  (POTW's) be protected from damage and from interference
with proper operation, and that water quality be protected
from pollutants which may pass through the POTW.

     These guidelines were developed by the Environmental
Protection Agency in accordance with Section 304 (f) of the
Act for the purpose of assisting States and municipalities
in meeting NPDES permit requirements.  It is important to
note the clear requirements in the Act that there be both
national pretreatment standards, Federally enforceable, and
pretreatment guidelines to assist States and municipalities
in developing local pretreatment requirements.  Some .factors
in pretreatment are not amenable to a national standard.  The
Environmental Protection Agency therefore encourages the
establishment of local pretreatment requirements, tailored
to the conditions at a specific publicly owned treatment works.
Such requirements are considered essential to ensure compliance
with permits issued under the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System.

     The guidelines are a revision of the previous guidelines,
"Pretreatment of Pollutants Introduced Into Publicly Owned
Treatment Works."  Contained in this revision is additional
technical information on pollutants which may interfere with
or pass through publicly owned treatment works.  Also, guid-
ance is presented to assist State and local governments in
developing their own pretreatment programs to comply with
NPDES permit conditions.  The guidelines are the result of
extensive reviews and numerous field trips and discussions
with EPA Regional Offices, city, regional, State and inter-
state agencies.  We are extremely grateful for the cooperation
of those who assisted in the preparation of the guidelines.

                       INTRODUCTION
Purpose

     These guidelines are established to assist municipalities,
States, Federal agencies, and others in developing require-
ments for the pretreatment of wastewaters which are intro-
duced into publicly owned treatment works (POTW1s).  This
document is a revision of an earlier publication dated
October 1973, and presents a compilation of technical and
administrative information relative to pretreatment and the
control of industrial wastewaters in publicly owned systems.
Information contained herein is designed to provide the
operators of POTW systems with a sound basis for determining
the impact of non-residential wastewaters, as well as
appropriate approaches for controlling pollutants from these
sources.

     Additionally, this document provides guidance helpful
in complying with those special conditions of the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System  (NPDES) permits issued
to POTW's that relate to non-residential wastewaters.  Tech-
nical aspects, including data on pollutants which  may inter-
fere with the operation of POTW's,  and the removal of" pollu-
tants in treatment facilities are covered in detail.  Legal
considerations encompassing methods for establishing pollu-
tant limitations and a recommended ordinance for industrial
use of sewers are also addressed.  Additionally, information
on the management and monitoring requirements of an industrial
wastewater control program and summaries of the wastewater
characteristics and pretreatment information for major
industrial categories are included.

     In summary, this document provides guidance to State
and local governments concerned with both implementing pre-
treatment policies in accordance with appropriate Federal
Regulations and developing supplemental pretreatment require-
ments as necessary.

Background

     Up until 1972, the emphasis in Federal legislation had
been oriented toward water quality standards.  With the
enactment of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amend-
ments of 1972  (Public Law 92-500) a number of fundamental
changes in the approach to achieving clean water were
instituted.  One of the most significant changes was from an
emphasis on the ambient quality of streams to direct control
of effluents through the establishment  of regulations and
standards which form a basis for the issuance of discharge
permits.  In addition, the 1972 Amendments required the
                          A-l

-------
development of pretreatment guidelines and standards to pro-
vide a uniform approach to the control of industrial pollu-
tants introduced into POTW's.

     Public Law 92-500 established a national system for
preventing, reducing, and eventually eliminating water
pollution.  By the creation of the National Pollutant Dis-
charge Elimination System (NPDES), the Act has required that
all point sources  (including POTW's) obtain a permit for the
discharge of wastewaters to the navigable waters of the
United States.

     The Act further requires that as a minimum intermediate
objective, all point sources other than POTW's treat their
wastewaters by the application of the best practicable con-
trol technology.  Subsequently, the minimum requirement for
industrial wastewaters would be the application of best
available treatment technology.  For POTW's the initial
objective is secondary treatment, as outlined in "Secondary
Treatment Information" promulgated by the Environmental
Protection Agency on August 17, 1973 (Appendix 2).

     As an additional measure designed to protect the
quality of navigable waters. Public Law 92-500 also contains
provisions that require regulating the pretreatment of non-
domestic wastewaters contributed to POTW's.  In the following
section, those portions of the Act that pertain to pre-
treatment, including the section providing authority for
the development of this document are discussed.

Authority

     Under Title III of the Act, "Standards and Enforcement,"
several sections are included that specifically refer to the
pretreatment of pollutants introduced into POTW's.  Authority
for development and revision of this guidelines document is
contained in Section 304(f)  which states:

     "For the purpose of assisting States in carrying
     out programs under section 402 of this Act, the
     Administrator shall publish	 and review at
     least annually thereafter and if appropriate,
     revise guidelines for pretreatment of pollutants
     which he determines are not susceptible to treat-
     ment by publicly owned treatment works.  Guide-
     lines under this subsection shall be established
     to control and prevent the discharge into the
     navigable waters, the contiguous zone, or the
     ocean (either directly or through publicly owned
     treatment works) of any pollutant which interferes
     with, passes through, or otherwise is incompatible
     with such works."
                            A-2

-------
     These guidelines should not be confused with pretreat-
ment standards for both existing and new sources, promulgated
under the authority of Sections 307 (b) and 307(c) respectively.
Section 307(b) is directed toward existing sources, and
states:

     "The Administrator shall	publish proposed
     regulations establishing pretreatment standards
     for introduction of pollutants into treatment
     works	which are publicly owned for those
     pollutants which are determined not to be sus-
     ceptible to treatment by such treatment works
     or which would interfere with the operation of
     such treatment works."

Under the authority of this Section,  the EPA promulgated on
November 8, 1973, general pretreatment standards, which are
included in Appendix 1 of this document.  These pretreatment
standards set forth rules and regulations designed to protect
POTW's from the possible harmful effects of industrial waste-
waters introduced into such systems.   In addition to the
general pretreatment standards, this section also provides
authority for the development of pretreatment standards for
specific major industrial categories of non-residential
contributors.  Similarly, Section 307(c) authorizes the
promulgation of pretreatment performance standards for new
sources.

     The distinction between pretreatment standards and
pretreatment guidelines must be emphasized.  This document,
as indicated, is strictly advisory, for the purpose of pro-
viding pretreatment assistance to interested parties.  As
such, these guidelines only recommend approaches to developing
pretreatment policy.  In contrast, the pretreatment standards
as promulgated under Section 307 of the Act, represent rules
and regulations which are enforceable by the Federal
government.

Federal Pretreatment Standards

     EPA has issued general standards for pretreatment of
pollutants introduced into POTW's  (Appendix 1).  Subsequent
to the promulgation of pretreatment standards on November 8,
1973, the Agency has proposed and promulgated numerous
pretreatment standards relative to specific industry cate-
gory wastewater discharges for both existing sources and
new sources.  As a result of these proposed and promulgated
regulations, the Agency has received numerous indications
that its pretreatment procedures, both for the establishment
of and for the enforcement of pretreatment standards, and
                            A-3

-------
the pretreatment standards themselves were not clearly
understood by many segments of the general public.  For this
reason, the Agency has decided to clarify and simplify the
existing pretreatment standards.   This will be accomplished
by proposing new general pretreatment regulations to replace
the existing standards contained in Appendix 1.  It is antici-
pated that the proposed standards will be published in the
Federal Register in the near future.  At that time the
proposed regulation and an appropriate discussion will be
incorporated in these guidelines.

     The pretreatment standards are intended to be national
in scope.  In many cases, it will be necessary for a State
or a municipality to supplement the Federal standards with
additional pretreatment requirements which take into account
local conditions.  Factors such as stringent water quality
standards reflected in the POTW1s NPDES permit or character-
istics of the treatment process may necessitate more restric-
tive pretreatment requirements in specific instances.  The
Federal pretreatment standards do not preclude municipalities
and States from establishing pretreatment standards of their
own, not in conflict with any Federal pretreatment standard,
as stated in Section 307(b)(4) of P.L.92-500.  State or
local standards may be necessary to control types, flows,
concentration and variability of industrial and commercial
discharges into municipal treatment works.

     There may be specific situations when the Federal pre-
treatment standards will not be sufficient to protect the
operation of the publicly owned treatment works.  This might
be the case when the quantity of a pollutant not susceptible
to treatment in a POTW, introduced by a major contributing
industry, would result in a concentration of the pollutant
in the influent to the treatment works which would inhibit
the performance of the treatment process.  In such a case,
the municipality would have to supplement the Federal standards-.
Additionally, State or local pretreatment standards may be
necessary for pollutants susceptible to treatment in a POTW.
Pretreatment of wastewaters containing susceptible pollutants
may be necessary in the form of spill protection or flow
equalization in order to ensure compliance with the Federal
pretreatment standards and permitted effluent limitations.

     EPA has been, and is currently in the process of promul-
gating rules and regulations setting forth effluent limitations
guidelines and standards of performance for the treatment of
specific industrial wastes discharged to navigable waters.
In pursuit  of this goal, EPA has categorized wastewater pro-
ducing commercial activities, and has, on an industry by
industry basis, published effluent standards in the Federal
Register  (40 CFR 400 series).  In each of these rules and
regulations for specific major industries, pretreatment
                         A-4

-------
standards are either proposed or promulgated in addition to
the requirements for wastewaters which are directly discharged.
To date, pretreatment standards for new sources have generally
been established in final form, while final rules and regula-
tions for the pretreatment of existing sources have only
been partially promulgated.  Pretreatment standards for
existing sources within fifteen major industrial categories
were promulgated on February 11, 1975 (Appendix 1), with
approximately twenty additional industrial pretreatment
standards still pending.  The pretreatment standards published
for the first fifteen industries do not establish limitations
on pollutants contributed to municipal systems because the
pollutants from these industries are usually susceptible to
treatment in a POTW.  In other words, for the first fifteen
industrial categories, there is no specific numerical pre-
treatment requirement at the Federal level.  However, there
are general prohibitions provided in the pretreatment standards
contained in Appendix 1.

     On the other hand, the pretreatment standards promul-
gated for new sources in various industrial categories
generally contain limitations on the level of specific pol-
lutants allowable in the wastewater discharged to POTW's.
The nature of the pretreatment standards to be established
for the remaining major industrial categories is unknown at
this time.  When issued, the information in these remaining
standards will be useful to local governments in determining
exact pretreatment requirements for the industries in
question.  For new sources, pretreatment standards have been
established for a number of major industries and have been
published in the Federal Register.

Effluent Limitations for POTW's

     As a result of the fundamental changes instituted by
Public Law 92-500, POTW's are now required to obtain permits
for their discharges and to meet certain minimum effluent
standards.  Both POTW permits and effluent standards have
a direct bearing on the control of industrial pollutants
that must be undertaken within a particular system.

     Since most POTW's discharge their effluents to navigable
waters/ the Act requires that effluent limiting regulations
be promulgated.  As indicated, EPA has published in the
Federal Register rules and regulations governing POTW dis-
charges entitled "Secondary Treatment Information,"(Appen-
dix 2).  These regulations set forth specific concentration
limits to be achieved by secondary wastewater treatment
facilities.  Limits are placed on permissable discharge con-
centrations (or removal efficiencies) for BOD, suspended
                            A-5

-------
solids, and fecal coliforra bacteria.  Additionally, an
acceptable pH range for secondary POTW effluents is set.
The pollutants limited in the regulation are generally
susceptible to treatment in POTW's.  As a consequence,
industrial pollutants only become important with regard to
secondary treatment standards when the contribution causes
these pollutant discharge limitations to be exceeded.

     In many instances, State or local water quality stan-
dards require a degree of treatment greater than that
required to meet the secondary treatment regulations, such
as more stringent BOD or suspended solids requirements.
Additionally, water quality standards often exist for pollu-
tants other than those regulated in the secondary treatment
standards, such as phosphorous, nitrogen compounds, metals,
etc.  Treatment requirements necessary to meet water quality
standards are normally incorporated into the NPDES permit.
Consequently, control of applicable industrial pollutants
can be extremely important in helping the municipality meet
its NPDES permit requirements.

     Procedures developed under Section 402 of the Act pro-
vide details for implementation of the NPDES permit program.
Under the program, all point sources, including POTW's,
must obtain a permit to discharge to navigable waters of the
United States.  NPDES permits are not required for indus-
trial sources contributing to POTW's, but many limitations
placed on a POTW, beyond standard secondary treatment, are
aimed at controlling the effects of non-domestic waste-
waters .

     The NPDES permit has several impacts on State or local
pretreatment policy.  First, as a part of the permit
application, the permittee must obtain preliminary infor-
mation on the activities and wastewater characteristics of
major industrial contributors within the collection system.
Based on this information, effluent limitations for pollu-
tants not susceptible to treatment in a POTW may be indivi-
dually established by the permitting agency.

     Secondly, under the Federal NPDES permit regulations
(40CFR126) the permitee is required to provide notice to
the Regional Administrator of the following:

     (i) Any new introduction of pollutants into such treat-
ment works from a source which would be a new source as
defined in Section 306 of the Act if such source were dis-
charging pollutants;
                         A-6

-------
     (ii)  Any new introduction of pollutants which exceeds
10,000 gallons on any one day into such treatment works from
a source which would be subject to Section 301 of the Act
if such source were discharging pollutants; and

     (iii) Any substantial change in volume or character
of pollutants being introduced into such treatment works by
a source introducing pollutants into such works at the time
of issuance of the permit.

     This notice must include information on the quantity
and quality of wastewater introduced by the new source into
the publicly owned treatment works, and any anticipated
impact on the effluent discharged from such works.

     In addition to effluent limitations, the permit sets
forth special conditions that pertain to pretreatment activi-
ties.  Municipalities are considered the first line of
defense for Federal pretreatment programs.  For this reason,
they are encouraged to enact an ordinance giving them the
power to enforce Federal pretreatment standards as well as
State and local standards "not in conflict" with Federal
pretreatment standards.  In an efficient POTW system, a
properly designed ordinance acts as the impetus for a
responsible approach to control and pretreatment of industrial
pollutants.  Guidance is provided in this document to aid
in the development of a municipal ordinance for industrial
use of publicly owned sewers.

Organization of Guidelines

     These guidelines are presented in two volumes.  Volume
I contains the main body of the guidelines, and seven appen-
dices furnishing the backup data to various sections of the
document.   Volume II is devoted to Appendix 8, containing
pretreatment information for major industrial source cate-
gories compiled from published and unpublished Effluent
Limitation Guidelines Development Documents.

     The main body of the guidelines is composed of six major
sections.   The first four sections provide the essential
information necessary to establish and administrate an
industrial pollutant control program.  Specific aspects dis-
cussed include organization, financial considerations,
policy and public relations in Section B, legal aspects
in Section C and monitoring in Section D.  The legal
aspects consist primarily of considerations related to an
ordinance for industrial use of publicly owned sewerage
facilities.  A recommended ordinance is contained in
Appendix 3 of the first volume.
                         A-7

-------
     One of the prime considerations in the development of
a workable ordinance is the establishment of limitations for
specific pollutants contained in industrial discharges to
publicly owned sewerage systems.  Administrative considera-
tions for setting such limits are discussed in Section C.
The technical information necessary to establish limits in
a particular system is contained in Sections E and F and
Appendices 5 and 6 of Volume I,  and Appendix 8 in Volume II.
Section E and Appendix 5 present technical data on the inter-
ference and inhibition characteristics of pollutants con-
tained in industrial discharges.  The data presented includes
information on major organic and inorganic constituents,
explosive and corrosive wastes and excessive discharges.
Section F and Appendix 6 provide the results of a survey to
determine the removal or pass through characteristics of
various pollutants in POTW's.  Appendix 8 is a compilation
of information on major industries, with emphasis on the
typical wastewater characteristics of plants within the
subcategories established for each industry.

                        SECTION B
              MANAGEMENT OF A CONTROL PROGRAM
Purpose

     The objective of an industrial pollutant control program
is to assure continuity of treatment, provide physical pro-
tection of treatment facilities, and prevent the discharge
of pollutants from the treatment facilities which would be in
violation of NPDES permit conditions and other regulatory
requirements.  In order to achieve these objectives, POTW
operators must develop programs which provide a data base
for establishing local requirements and which after the
requirements have been established, form a framework for
administering these requirements.  The purpose of this sec-
tion is to discuss various aspects relating to the management
of an industrial pollutant control program.

     The scope of such a program depends to a large degree
on a number of factors.  Of prime importance is the size
of the sewerage system and the number and type of industries
utilizing the system.  Other significant elements include
the type of treatment facility, the water quality standards
applicable to the POTW and the provisions of the plant's
NPDES permit.

     In this section, management approaches are discussed
on three levels, for large, medium, and small systems, referring
in general to systems with average dry weather flows in excess
of 100 mgd, between 10 and 100 mgd, and less than 10 mgd.
However, a system with a heavy industrial contribution, but
an average flow of under 10 mgd may opt for a more extensive
program, whereas a system with an average flow in excess of
10 mgd but only limited industrial contribution may adopt ar
less comprehensive program.  Thus the categorization by size
is provided as a general guideline only, and should be con-
sidered flexible depending upon the needs of a particular system.
The degree of industrialization in a community and the type
of industrial facilities contributing to the system, are
major factors in determining the requirements of an industrial
pollutant control program for a given POTW.

     Historically, municipalities and authorities that have
developed effective programs to control industrial pollutants
have generally been motivated by several factors.  The most
effective industrial pollutant control programs have generally
been instituted where the need to protect treatment facilities,
plant operation or receiving waters has been apparent.  In
those cases, the motivating force toward a control program
                             B-l

-------
was either frequent or serious plant upsets or the require-
ment of meeting stringent water quality standards.  Also,
many POTW1s have established industrial programs primarily
as a revenue producing mechanism through the use of sur-
charges.  Surcharge fees have been applied not only to
flow and organic loading, but in many instances surcharges
have been imposed upon incompatible pollutants as well.

     For many POTW's interest in controlling non-residential
contributions to their system is an outgrowth of the require-
ments of Public Law 92-500 and the subsequent receipt of an
NPDES permit.  The permit generally places limitations on
the quality of discharge permissible by the POTW.  As a
result, it is important that interferences that might decrease
the treatment plant's operating efficiency, or pollutants
that might pass through a system be avoided.  In addition,
the permit may require that an enforceable ordinance be
enacted.  Municipalities are encouraged by the EPA to adopt
local ordinances to control pollutants which might upset the
POTW, decrease treatment efficiency, or cause a violation of
the effluent limitations in the NPDES permit.  Consequently,
an effective program is essential not only to control pollu-
tants entering the treatment plant which  in turn affect  its
effluent, but also to develop and enforce an appropriate
ordinance for the control of industrial pollutants.

     Beyond  fulfilling the specific requirements of  the  NPDES
permit,  a properly administered industrial pollutant control
program also serves  several other essential functions.   Depend-
 ing  on  the degree to which the POTW is cognizant of  non-
 residential  contributions to its system,  the control program
 can  serve as a basis  for obtaining data on industrial  contri-
 butors  and in turn identify potential problem areas.   The
 program should offer an  ordered mechanism through which
 information  can  be transfered  on the degree of compliance
 with'ordinance  requirements and Federal regulations.   Above'
 all, the control program provides the mechanism  and  enforce-
 ment tools necessary to  assure treatment  continuity  and  the
 protection of  public facilities.

      Additionally,  industrial  pollutant control  programs
 may be used to  establish procedures  for implementing sur-
 charge or user  charge policies.  The EPA  Construction
 Grant Regulations (40 CFR  35)  require  construction  grant
 applicants for funds authorized under  Title  II  of PL-92-500
 to establish and maintain  a proportionate system of  user
 charges for operation and maintenance  costs  and  industrial
 cost recovery for capital  costs.  These requirements can be
 most effectively implemented  through  an  industrial  pollutant
 control program.
                             B-2

-------
Organizational Structure

     The industrial pollutant control program consists of
the activities and personnel assigned specific functions
and responsibilities in relation to the control of industrial
pollutants.   For most larger systems, this involves a well-
defined organizational structure with assigned personnel
having specialized training and qualifications.  For smaller
systems, it  may involve only a part time assignment for a
single individual.  However, even small systems should be
aware of the functional steps involved in an industrial
pollutant control program and provide for these functions
on an appropriate scale.

     Figure  B-l illustrates a conceptual organizational
structure based on the functions required for a workable
control program.  The manner in which these elements are
organized can vary greatly depending on the local situation.
The essential aspect is the need for an efficient information
transfer mechanism.  The typical organization shown outlines
the interrelationship of the essential elements of a program.

     Generally, the larger the system,the more complex the
organization.  Individual responsibilities also become more
clearly defined as the system increases in size.  For very
small systems, outside experts are frequently utilized to
provide engineering, legal and laboratory expertise.  In
order to supply the most meaningful guidance, the organization
necessary for an effective industrial pollutant control pro-
gram is specifically discussed in the following paragraphs in
terms of small, medium and large systems.

     Large Systems

     Figure  B-2 presents an example of an industrial waste
control program organization for a large POTW system.  The
chart illustrates the need for a structured organization to
most effectively administer a control program in a large
system.  The larger and more complex the POTW, the more
highly developed and structured the organization should be.
Nevertheless the components of an effective organization
demonstrated by the chart are essential for a functional
industrial waste control program in any large system.
Specific sections of an industrial waste control organization
for a large  system should include the following:

-------
          Administrative

          Administrative responsibility for the program should
rest with a single person who has intimate knowledge of all
aspects of pollution control and wastewater treatment within
the jurisdictional boundaries.  In municipal systems, usually
the Director of Public Works or Superintendent of Sanitation
would be the appropriate individual.  In regional authorities,
there is most often a Board of Commissioners which has
overall responsibility for the entire POTW system.  Commissioners
are generally appointed by appropriate governmental officials
such as the governor of the state, and frequently act only in
an overall policy and management capacity.  In this sense,
such boards can be considered as analogous to the mayor
and council in a municipality.  Day-to-day operations are
usually administered by an Executive Director, General Manager,
Chief Engineer or Superintendent who can be compared for
these purposes to the Commissioner of Public Works,in
municipal operations.

          Decisions pertinent to pretreatment policy should
be made by this individual drawing upon information supplied
by key subordinates.  These subordinates should include
personnel such as the Chief Industrial Waste Engineer, Chief
Plant Operator, Chief Chemist, and other specialists concerned
with the control program, including field investigators,
engineers and attorneys.

          Specific functions of the administrative section
should include  (1) basic policy decisions  (2) management of
budgetaiy needs  (3) personnel administration and  (4) coordin-
ation with the public and appropriate municipal, State and
Federal authorities.

          Industrial Waste Division

          The individuals comprising the industrial waste
division represent the heart of any industrial waste control
program.  Generally the division is comprised of engineers
that conduct the program and secretarial personnel, field
inspectors and  laboratory technicians that provide the neces-
sary support for effective operation.  The engineering staff
engaged in this activity should be the most knowledgeable
group of individuals on all aspects of industrial wastewater
within a given  system.  They should be thoroughly familiar
with the operation and wastewater produced by industries in
the system, pretreatment facilities utilized by the industries,
applicable provisions of Federal and State standards and local
ordinances and  characteristics of the treatment processes
                             B-6

-------
utilized in the system.   If a local permit program is employed,
the industrial waste division would undoubtedly administer
its operation.   Generally this group will formulate industrial
wastewater policy and recommend specific policies to the
administrator for implementation.  The industrial waste division
would also generally coordinate enforcement activities and
provide necessary technical expertise to the legal staff in
court actions.

          Staff levels vary considerably depending upon size,
fiscal resources, organizational structure, number and type
of industries present and the specific NPDES permit require-
ments of the system.  The largest POTW systems in the country
have as many as 50 to 80 individuals reporting to the Chief
Industrial Waste Engineer.  Smaller cities and regional
authorities obviously require smaller staffs, with the level
generally varying from approximately 1/2 to 2 individuals per
10 MGD, depending upon the factors indicated above.

          Field Monitoring

          The organization should include a group of inspectors
whose only responsibility is the monitoring of non-residential
contributors.  These field investigations should include
initial plant surveys, data acquisition at the plant site,
and all follow-up monitoring and inspection activities.  Moni-
toring and the general conduct of field investigations is an
important subject which is covered in detail in Section D
of these guidelines.

          The field monitoring section should have total
responsibility for surveillance of non-residential sources.
Specific functions to be carried out by field inspectors
include:   (1) sampling and flow measurement at wastewater
sources,  (2) inspection of plant and pretreatment operations
at the time of sampling,  (3) maintenance of specialized
field equipment, and  (4) performance of specialized monitoring
activities in connection with locating the source of problems
within the system, enforcement activities, etc.  The Metro-
politan Sanitary District of Greater Chicago provides uniforms
and badges for its inspectors to formalize their status in the
community.  This can be helpful in gaining quick access to
industrial facilities when necessary.  In any event, all
field inspectors should be provided with proper credentials
which should be carried for identification at all times.
                            B-7

-------
          Laboratory

          An industrial pollutant control program will gen-
erally require some expansion of the typical laboratory
required for control of biological treatment processes.  As
a result, additional personnel may be necessary to carry out
analyses in conjunction with a monitoring program.  Frequently,
these technicians are incorporated into the existing laboratory
organization, so that coordination with the industrial waste
division is essential.  Some POTW's are structured so that
laboratory personnel engaged in industrial wastewater analysis
report directly to the Chief Industrial Waste Engineer.
Such an arrangement may be preferable for improved communica-
tions and delineation of responsibility.

          Where this function is part of the overall labora-
tory responsibility, then data must be reported to the indus-
trial waste division so that pretreatment performance can be
evaluated.  If any ordinance violations are suscepted, then
analytical data would also be passed on to the legal staff
for evaluation and possible enforcement action.  The specific
functions of the laboratory in connection with industrial
wastewaters include  (1) analysis of field samples,  (2) main-
tenance of laboratory equipment and (3) proper record keeping
and reporting in support of industrial waste division activities,

          Legal - Enforcement

          One or more attorneys may be required to provide
legal services with regard to enforcement of ordinance regu-
lations.  Attorneys may not have full time responsibility
in connection with ordinance enforcement.  Instead the legal
staff may serve the dual function of supporting legal action
against ordinance violators, and general legal support of
other activities in the water pollution control area.

          For enforcement activity, the legal group should
receive information directly from the industrial waste
division staff, as well as from field monitoring and labora-
tory personnel.  The special functions of enforcement include
 (1) assistance in evaluation of suspected ordinance violations,
 (2) notification of suspected violators, (3) participation in
follow-up meetings with violators  (4) preparation of briefs
for litigation; and  (5) court action.

     Medium Size Systems

     As the size of a POTW decreases, the operation of the
industrial pollutant control program becomes less of a separate
entity, and more entwined in the overall operation of the


                             B-8

-------
wastewater collection and treatment facility.  Because of
limited resources,  administrative and laboratory personnel
generally become responsible for both plant operations and
control of pollutants contributed by non-residential sources.
Figure B-3 provides a typical organization chart for a
medium size POTW system.

     Although fewer individuals are involved, the specific
organizational elements of a control program must be main-
tained.  The organization will not be as structured as in
large systems, but the essential functions of industrial
waste control must be performed in conjunction with other
duties.  Among these functions is the use of a field moni-
toring group to carry out plant inspections and effluent
sampling.  The field crew is essential for all of the
specific monitoring requirements necessary.to control
industrial contributors to the system.  Likewise, other
specific functions of a control program would have to be
maintained in a medium size  system, such as ordinance
enforcement, summary and analysis of industrial data and
surcharge administration.  However, unlike the large system
organization where individuals or groups of individuals
have well defined task assignments, the control program for a
medium size  system will most likely contain individuals
with multiple functions and responsibilities.  Some medium
size systems with many industrial contributors may find
it necessary to have an industrial waste engineer or other
individual specifically assigned to the control of discharges
from these facilities.

     Small Systems

     A large proportion of municipal POTWs that treat non-
residential wastes fall into the small system category.  In
a small system, adequate resources would generally not be
available to have any individual whose sole responsibility
lies in the area of non-domestic pollutant control.  Instead,
all of the elements of an industrial pollutant control pro-
gram that are delineated for large systems would have to
be handled by personnel currently employed by the municipality.
This is not unrealistic, since quite often a small system
would be concerned with only a few, or even a single industrial
contributor.

     Figure B-4 illustrates an organizational arrangement for
a typical small system.  The structure shown is only one of
several that could be effectively utilized in a small
municipality.  The variety encountered in the organization of
small local governments suggests that a number of different

arrangements may be equally effective in the administration of
an industrial pollutant control program.  Nevertheless, in
the small system case,  generally one person has responsibility
for monitoring and all  specialized analysis is contracted to
commercial laboratories.  Similarly, the Director of Public
Works would most likely have overall administrative respon-
sibility in addition to performing the functions of the
industrial waste engineer.  A town engineer may be utilized
for industrial waste control, reporting either to the Director
of Public Works or directly to the governing body.  The town
engineer may be a full  time employee if the needs of the
system dictate, but he  is most frequently a consulting
engineer under a retainer type contract to the municipality.
Specialized engineering requirements would usually be provided
by either the town engineer or another consultant, with
legal questions being handled by the municipal attorney.  Since
the NPDES permit program for POTW's, large or small, encourage
implementation of Federal pretreatment standards, it is
recommended that industrial pollutant control be implemented,
even in the smallest of systems, where there are industrial
users.

Financial Aspects

     As might be expected, the cost of an industrial pollutant
control program is a function of both the total system flow
and of the proportion of the industrial wastewater contribution.
A survey of municipal and regional sewerage systems with dry
weather flows ranging from 15 to over 1,000 mgd was conducted.
The survey showed that the annual direct cost of the industrial
pollutant control program was generally in the order of $1,000
per million gallons per day of dry weather flow for systems
having some significant portion of the total wastewater  flow
from  industrial contributors.  On .this basis, the direct
cost  of a program covering industries for a system with an
average flow of 50 mgd might be $50,000 per year  (1975 dollars) .
Assuming an average salary level of $15,000 per year for
personnel assigned to such a program, this system would support
a staff of 3 persons.

      Many systems have  traditionally recovered the additional
costs for treating anJmonitoring industrial wastewater through
imposition of a surcharge.  These surcharges have generally
been  related to the additional cost of treating for removal
of suspended solids and BOD for industrial wastewaters that
exceed domestic sewage  in these components.  In addition,
PL 92-500 and the EPA construction grant regulations now
require Federal construction grant recipients to establish
and maintain a user charge program and a system of industrial
                              B-12

-------
cost recovery.   The proportionate costs of an industrial
pollutant control program such as outlined above, could be
added to the user charge for the industrial contributors.
In this way, the cost of the industrial pollutant control
program would be distributed back to  the contributor of the
industrial wastewater being controlled.  The cost of the
control program could be recovered through a formula
similar to the  user charge formula where flow, loading, and
a charge per connection or a charge per monitoring visit
are used to determine an equitable cost  distribution.

     It should be noted that a well run, efficient industrial
pollutant control program may be cost effective for both the
POTW and the industrial contributors to the system.  In some
cases, the control program can pay for itself by means of
increased surcharge or user charge revenue derived from the
identification and continued surveillance of industrial
discharges to the POTW.  Industries in the system may also
benefit from the cost savings in economy of scale realized in
cases where the municipality performs all of the monitoring
functions.  In such instances, lower costs should result
from the use of a central laboratory and experienced monitor-
ing field personnel, than the industry would incur  in admin-
istering its own monitoring program.  In particular, small
industries with limited resources may prefer that the
municipality perform this function.

Policy

     Pretreatment

     Most States or municipalities will  require  pretreatment
in order to  comply with the effluent limitations  in the
NPDES permit.   Pollutants which  would  interfere  with or  pass
through the  POTW, resulting in a violation of  any of these
NPDES permit requirements, must  be pretreated  or rejected
from the  system.  The  following  sections of  the  guidelines
contain technical  information to assist the  State or munici-
pality  in determining  specific pretreatment  requirements.
Pretreatment may be  necessary for compatible or  incompatible
pollutants  since both  may be  limited in the  NPDES permit,  and
since  either can cause plant upsets. Generally,  however,  where
design  capacity is  available, except for shock loading pro-
visions,  pretreatment  would not  be required  for  compatible
pollutants.  Pretreatment  is  most commonly  required for
 incompatible pollutants  to  prevent interference  with treatment
processes or pass  through  to  receiving waters.
                             B-13

-------
     Federal pretreatment standards for fifteen categories of
existing industrial sources have been promulgated (Appendix 1)
but these standards, in effect, require no pretreatment as
the wastewaters involved are generally susceptible to treat-
ment in POTW facilities.  However, this does not preclude
local pretreatment requirements for compatible pollutants,
if necessary.  Where design capacity is not available, pre-
treatment for compatible pollutants may be necessary to
comply with NPDES permit effluent limitations.  Pretreatment
regulations for the remaining major existing industrial cate-
gories are still pending, with specific standards anticipated
for most incompatible pollutants.  '

     In addition to the regulatory aspects, pretreatment of
incompatible wastes offers several operational advantages to
POTW's.  One significant advantage to the municipality is
the specialized treatment that each wastewater contribution
receives, and the fact that the potential for plant upset is
greatly reduced by pretreatment.  Local control can also
serve as an insurance measure to protect against damage to
the POTW from industrial wastes.  Finally, the problem of
incompatible pollutants contaminating the sludge from the
POTW is reduced,  as discussed in the following section on
sludge disposal.

     Joint Treatment

     Joint treatment is a policy alternative that can be
advantageous to both the POTW and the industry with regard to
pollutants susceptible to treatment in POTW's.  Generally,
the treatment of industrial wastewaters in a POTW is incidental
to its primary function of treating domestic sewage.  Where
the industrial contribution constitutes a significant portion
of the total flow and substantially alters the concentration
of pollutants normally contained in domestic sewage, the
public agency may resort to the joint treatment approach.
In this approach, the industry or industries contributing
the pollutants is made a partner in the design and construction
of the system, and the treatment works are designed to
specifically remove the industrial pollutants.  Both capital
costs and operating costs are allocated to the industry and
the public agency according to an agreement arrived at through
negotiation, or as  required by Federal regulations  if construction
 grant funds are involved.

     Joint treatment of industrial wastewaters with municipal
domestic sewage offers these advantages:

     - Savings in capital and operating expenses due to
       the economics of large-scale treatment facilities


                            B-14

-------
    - Increased flow which can result in reduced ratios of
      peak to average flows

    - More efficient use of land resources, particularly
      in cases where available land for treatment facilities
      is scarce

    - Improved operation  (larger plants are potentially
      better operated than smaller plants)

    - Increased number of treatment modules with resultant
      gains in reliability and flexibility

    - More efficient disposal of sludges resulting  from
      treatment of wastewaters containing pollutants  sus-
      ceptible to treatment in POTW1s

    - Utilization of the nutrients available  in domestic
      wastes  for biological treatment of industrial wastes
      which are nutrient deficient

    Possible  disadvantages of joint treatment are as  follows:

    - Where the pollutants are different from those usually
      treated in a POTW, design to treat the  combined
      industrial-domestic waste stream for these pollutants
      may not be cost-effective (Reference F-25)

    - Joint treatment by definition implies that the  POTW
      was designed so as not to be interfered with  by indus-
      trial wastes.  However, where this requires design
      modifications ordinarily not required for domestic
      wastes, joint treatment may not be cost effective

    - If joint treatment results in sludge disposal or
      utilization problems it may not be acceptable

    - Some costs for the construction of joint treatment works
      solely  to treat industrial pollutants are not eligible
      for Federal construction grants

    Sludge Disposal

    The ultimate disposal of sludges produced by either pre-
treatment or joint treatment operations is  an  important factor
to consider.   The POTW must be aware of the effect of  its
policies on environmental problems that may result from sludge
disposal.
                            B-15

-------
     Generally pretreatment facilities will remove incompatible
pollutants that may eventually be deposited in the sludge
produced by the operation of the publicly owned treatment
works.  This can be a meaningful advantage in terms of the
environmental effects of the ultimate disposal of sludge from
the POTW.  Incompatible pollutants in sludges can cause
problems in most disposal techniques utilized, including
incineration, landfills, ocean dumping and land spreading.
Consequently, the removal of incompatible pollutants at their
source by pretreatment is usually advantageous to the POTW
in terms of its sludge disposal.

     Nevertheless, incompatible pollutants removed by pretreat-
ment also require an ultimate disposition, although the
impact on the POTW may have been eliminated.  In some cases
the sludge produced by pretreatment operations may be pure
enough to warrant by-product recovery or recycle.  When this
is not economically or technically feasible, disposal of
sludge is necessary.  Although the sludges produced by
industrial pretreatment may not technically be under muni-
cipal regulatory control, the impact on other environmental
areas should be noted.  A possible approach to this problem
would be an effort by the municipality to coordinate off-site
disposal with appropriate regulatory agencies.  If on-site
disposal is utilized by the industry, attempts should be
made to evaluate proposed disposal schemes to prevent future
air and water pollution problems.

     Summary

     The treatment policy instituted by a POTW, whether
pretreatment or joint treatment, should be determined on the
basis of the conditions within the system.  One of the most
important  factors to consider is the potential effect of
the chosen course of action.  The POTW must be aware of its
policy's effect on critical environmental problems such as'
sludge disposal.  As a  result, the treatment policy should
be instituted on the basis of a broad overview of all aspects
and consequences of action taken.

Public Relations

      It must be recognized that some industries using a
public sewerage system  will be reluctant to provide the
necessary  pretreatment  facilities, particularly if they have
been  using the public system for some time and the effects of
their contribution are  not apparent. . One way in which some
public agencies have been able to enlist the support of their
contributing industries is through the formation of an informal
coordinating committee, which would consist of representatives


                             B-16

-------
of the affected industries and the public agency.  This
committee would explore all aspects of the Federal regulation,
including pretreatment requirements and the NPDES permit for
the POTW, and develop programs which would meet the require-
ment of the regulatory agencies.   Such committees would be
purely advisory and would not have any legal status, but
could serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas.

                         SECTION C
             LEGAL ASPECTS OF A CONTROL PROGRAM
Introduction

    The legal considerations  inherent in the development and
administration of an industrial pollutant control program are
perhaps the most significant  factor in the establishment of a
viable program.  The legal aspects are particularly important
in instituting a control program in terms of providing the
legal authority over industrial discharges to the sewerage
system.  In many cases,  legal authority may be complicated by
the structure of a sewer district or regional sewer authority.
Many districts and regional authorities act essentially as
wholesalers serving a number  of political subdivisions, and
do not have any direct contact with industries in the system.
However, where the service area coincides with political
boundaries, then legal authority can usually be established
in a relatively simple manner, by the promulgation of an
ordinance for the control of  industrial use of publicly owned
sewerage facilities.


    •  The ordinance  is the  heart  of  any industrial pollutant
 control program,  providing the essential  mechanism for con-
 trolling the discharge  from  industries within the POTW system.
 Consequently,  the ordinance  must be carefully drawn to include
 all essential ingredients  for the particular system.   Once
 promulgated,  the  ordinance should be utilized for the control
 of all industrial wastewater discharges and the  eventual
 enforcement of its  terms  against all violators.   Therefore,
 the administration  or enforcement of the  ordinance is equally
 as important as its contents.  Enforcement must  be an integral
 part of any industrial  pollutant control  program.  Consequently,
 legal assistance  must be viewed  as  a continuing  need which does
 not end once the  ordinance is drawn and instituted.  Proper
 enforcement requires  teamwork between administrators, engineers,
 attorneys  and field and laboratory  personnel, with the legal
 role being the key  to eventual resolution of problems through
 conciliation or court action.

 Legal Authority

      One of the most significant factors  in the  establishment
 of a viable industrial  pollutant control  program is the provision
 of adequate legal authority  to develop, administer and enforce
 the program.   Whatever  agency  is designated to operate the
 program must have sufficient power  to enforce its rules and
 regulations on industrial  users  and to obtain the data necessary
 to monitor how its  rules  are being  complied with.
                              C-l

-------
     If the service area of a public sewerage agency coincides
with the boundaries of a political subdivision  (city, county,
etc.) the legal problems are usually relatively simple.
However, if the sewerage agency serves more than one political
jurisdiction, and particularly if it serves them essentially
as a wholesaler, the problems can become more complicated.
The solution depends to some extent on the legal structure
of the sewerage agency.  If it is only a voluntary association
of independent municipalities, the agency will generally only
have such authority as has been delegated to it by the compact
creating the sewerage authority or district.  If the sewerage
agency has been established by a superior governmental
jurisdiction, it then may be able to superimpose its authority
on that of the local municipalities.

     In any case, many existing regional sewerage authorities
or districts are not able to legally interface with industries
in the system because the industries discharge to municipal
sewers which in turn connect to the regional agency.  In
such instances, the development and enforcement of ordinances
controlling the discharge of industrial wastewaters is
legally the responsibility of the individual municipalities
in the system.  They may look toward the regional agency for
guidance in such matters, but nevertheless the municipalities
in these cases would retain the legal authority to deal with
industries in their systems in these situations.

     With the advent of the NPDES permit program, it becomes
increasingly important for the permittee to have the right to
directly control the wastewaters from all contributors within
the  sewerage system.  If an industrial discharger causes an
upset  in treatment plant operations and a resulting violation
of the permit provisions, the POTW must have the right to
directly and immediately control the industrial discharge.
Regional agencies with the most effective industrial pollutant
control programs at present have obtained the legal authority
to control industries in their system directly.  In some
instances it was necessary to have the state legislature
revise the compact or charter of the regional agency in order
to obtain this  authority.  In other instances, renegotiation
of the agreement between the regional agency and the munici-
palities in  the service area might be the most direct method
for  obtaining  legal authority.  In any case, to comply with
NPDES  permit requirements, it is essential that the operating
agency of the  POTW obtain the power to deal directly with
the  industries  contributing to its system in order to
establish a viable industrial pollutant control program.

Sewer Use Ordinances

     The following describes  the content of sewer use
ordinances,  factors that control the content, the historical
development  of such ordinances,  types of ordinances, and the
application  of sewer  use ordinances to industrial users of
publicly owned sewerage facilities.

     Historical Development

     The content of sewer use ordinances has evolved over
the years roughly paralleling the increased sophistication
in wastewater treatment facilities.  Early ordinances were
outgrowths of local plumbing and health codes, the contents
of which were primarily devoted to standardization of mate-
rials used in the construction of sewers and connections
thereto.  Since sewage treatment was limited to settling of
solid material, the content of ordinances at this stage
focused on protection of sewers from clogging, corrosion
and explosive hazards.  Most ordinances are built around
these basic provisions and have increased in scope as new
needs have arisen.

   •  With the advent of secondary treatment processes and
the development of anaerobic digestion, closer control over
certain dissolved organic and inorganic pollutants became
necessary to prevent inhibitory effects in these units.  In
many instances, this type of control was provided by setting
concentration limits for the acceptable discharge of critical
pollutants.

     The  recent application of  State and Federal water quality
standards, which  in many cases  require the removal  of even
trace quantities  of certain toxic  pollutants, has caused many
POTW's  to establish direct control  over significant industrial
users.   To gain information and control over these  sources,
many ordinances are now including  permit provisions and  self-
monitoring  provisions,  or both.

     Finally,  as  the costs of providing  increased  levels of
treatment have risen, many POTW's have been forced  to expand
their revenue base.  This has taken the  form of  surcharging
provisions  for users "whose wastes  have  greater  strength  than
normal  domestic sewage.
                              C-3

-------
     There is no single ordinance now in force that could be
considered typical of all, or even most, ordinances currently
being utilized.  Effective control of sewer use has been
obtained by both simple and complex ordinance structures.

      Types of Ordinances

     Two factors influence the size and content of a sewer
use ordinance.  The first of these is whether the ordinance
is designed to be self-contained, or whether it simply states
general provisions and relies on separately published rules
and regulations for interpretation and  implementation.   The
second factor is whether or not the ordinance incorporates a
permit system for either industrial users or all users of
the system.  Obviously, an ordinance which is self-contained
will be a  longer document than one which is not.  Permit
systems, if used, will also add length.  Generally, smaller
communities with relatively few industries will use a self-
contained  ordinance and will not employ a permit system.
Enforcement of the ordinance for the few industrial users in
such cases can be achieved on the basis of personal contact
between the pollution control officer and the industry plant
manager.   As  the size of the POTW increases or, more impor-
tantly, as the number of industrial users increases, it
becomes more  difficult to provide flexibility for the numerous
individual differences between users within the ordinance
document itself.  In these systems, a shorter document stating
general provisions may be more effective.  This type of
ordinance  is  usually supplemented by a  separate set of rules
and  regulations that explain the responsibilities of users
with  respect  to the general provisions.  The supplemental
regulations   may take the form of a permit system with or
without industrial self-monitoring provisions.  Permit and
self-monitoring requirements are particularly useful for POTW's
which are  starting a comprehensive industrial discharge  con-
trol program  to meet NPDES requirements, and have to comply
with a schedule for the development of  information on
industrial users.  By using these provisions, the enforce-
ment authority can expand the coverage  of a smaller initial
staff.  In subsequent years, as both field and laboratory
capability is increased,  more direct methods of compliance
monitoring can be used.   In a fully developed industrial waste
 control program,  compliance monitoring  is usually the most
effective  tool for enforcement of the ordinance.

      Regardless of the  type of ordinance employed, its scope
and complexity should be  limited  to the resources available
 to the enforcement authority.  If enforcement of the ordinance
relies heavily on a permit  system and self-monitoring, then
                             C-4

-------
there should be an adequate office and field staff to issue
and review permits and to check the periodic self-monitoring
information.  If enforcement is based on analysis of samples
taken by the authority, then an adequate field and laboratory
capability is necessary.  In all cases, sufficient manpower
should be available to follow up violations through the
administrative procedures provided in the ordinance.  Only
by following up on each violation to gain compliance, will
credibility for both the ordinance and the enforcement
authority be established.

Recommended Ordinance for Industrial Use of Publicly Owned
Sewerage Facilities(Appendix 3)                       '

     The recommended ordinance contained in Appendix 3 covers
those portions of a complete sewer use ordinance which relate
only to the industrial use of sewer systems.  Excluded from
Appendix 3 are those parts of a typical ordinance which relate
to standards for construction of sewers and appurtenances,
provisions relating to the control of infiltration and inflow,
surcharge fees, and other miscellaneous provisions.  These
portions of a typical sewer use ordinance are adequately
covered in other reference sources.


     The recommended ordinance is designed to be self-contained,
and in its full form could be used independently as a separate
document to control the industrial use of sewerage facilities.
In addition, individual sections of the recommended ordinance
may be used separately as an addendum or a major revision to an
existing ordinance.  Finally, individual clauses contained in
the recommended ordinance may be used to supplement an other-
wise complete document.

     The recommended ordinance contains nine sections which
can be grouped into four basic parts as follows:

     A.  Introductory sections consisting of the introduction,
purpose, legislative background and definitions.

     B.  The body of the regulation consisting of prohibitions
and limitations on discharges, control of prohibited wastes,
sampling and analysis of wastes and enforcement procedures.

     C.  Optional add-on sections for permits and self-
monitoring if desired.

     D.  Procedural clauses.
                            C-5

-------
     Introductory Sections

     The introduction is simply a short statement of the con-
tent of the ordinance.  It usually includes the precise
location (city, county, state) of the area under jurisdiction
of the ordinance.  This blank in the recommended ordinance, as
well as all other blanks in parenthesis, must be completed to
suit  the enforcement agency responsible for implementation.
The introduction used in the recommended ordinance is a state-
ment of the content of Appendix 3, and will need to be modi-
fied for ordinances whose scope is greater or smaller than
that contained therein.


     The purpose and legislative background portions of the
ordinance state the intent of the document and the legal
context under which it has been developed.  The influence of
Public Law 92-500 with regard to both the NPDES permit program
(Section 402) and pretreatment standards  (Section 307)
should be included.  Additional applicable regulations of
either State or interstate agencies should also be noted in
this section of the ordinance.

     All ordinances contain a section on definition of terms
used in the body of the, ordinance.  As few as 10, and as
many as 50 definitions have been used depending on the
sophistication of the ordinance.  The recommended document
contains 24 entries, or about the average length of a defini-
tion section.  If a POTW has other sewer ordinances, then
the definitions should be changed to be compatible with
existing terminology.  Many ordinances also have an entry
for "other terms" which refers to the "Glossary-Water and
Sewage Control Engineering" published by the Water Pollution
Control Federation.

     Regulatory Sections

     This portion of the ordinance contains the essential
regulations controlling discharges to sewerage systems,
provisions for sampling and analysis, and procedures for
enforcement of the ordinance.

     Most ordinances cover prohibitions and limitations of
wastewater discharges  in two parts; general prohibitions
on materials which have proven to be hazardous, or interfere
with both collection and treatment systems, and limitations
on certain critical pollutants which either interfere with
or pass through the treatment facilities.  The general
prohibitions should delineate all objectionable materials
                            C-6

-------
as specifically as possible,  and also should provide legal
coverage for unanticipated problems.   In this context, it
should provide the POTW with  the flexibility to effectively
act against violators discharging materials not specifically
named in the ordinance.

     Excessive Discharge Rate

     One instance in which flexibility is essential is in
regard to excessive discharge rate.   The recommended ordinance
includes, in paragraph 3.1.8  a general prohibition of wastes
containing high concentrations of suspended solids, BOD
or COD, or unusually high flows which would cause a treatment
process upset and subsequent  loss of  treatment efficiency.
This clause is of particular  importance to many POTW systems.
In a number of instances,  industrial  dischargers constitute
a large percentage of the flow to a POTW.  Excessive discharge
can be extremely damaging in  such cases.  In addition,
frequently industries with wide seasonal variations in their
wastewater characteristics discharge to POTW's.  Excessive
discharge can also be a significant problem with industries
having such seasonal variations in their plant effluent.  In
any case, it may be possible  for a POTW to define excessive
discharge more specifically for the system in question.
This may be done in terms of  design capacity, NPDES permit
conditions, or by taking into account the most cost effective
means of dealing with excessive discharge.  If it is possible
to delineate specific limits  for excessive discharge incor-
porating local conditions, that is generally more desirable
than the general clause contained in  the recommended ordinance,

     Establishing Limitations for Pollutant Parameters

     The provisions for limitations on wastewater discharges
have been shown in both general and specific terms in the
recommended ordinance.  Whichever option is utilized, the
NPDES permit conditions and Federal pretreatment standards
should be either referenced directly  or used in the develop-
ment of specific numerical limitations for applicable
pollutant parameters.  The general limitations provide
flexibility for systems which are unable to determine what
specific limitations to establish.

     If sufficient information is available to select
pollutant parameters and set  specific numerical limitations,
that option is usually preferable. However, it requires
thorough knowledge of the sewerage system, data on industrial
contributors, and familiarity with applicable water quality
standards, Federal pretreatment standards and the provisions
of the NPDES permit for the POTW.  In establishing specific
limits, there are three major factors to consider; Federal
                             07

-------
pretreatment standards, inhibition of treatment processes,
and pass through of pollutants which would affect the
POTW's NPDES permit or water quality standards.

     Federal pretreatment standards for new and existing
sources within major industrial categories are in various
stages of development as described in other sections of these
guidelines.  When finalized, the limitations prescribed
therein should be incorporated into the ordinance for all
affected industries.  As a result, specific numerical limi-
tations for various incompatible pollutant parameters will be
established for a number of major industries.  Standards
applicable to industries within a given system should be
incorporated directly into this section of the ordinance.
An efficient way in which this may be accomplished is by use
of the Standard Industrial Category  (SIC) code for each
industry established by the Office of Management and Budget.
The SIC numbers are utilized by the EPA in pretreatment rules
and regulations, and thus provide a convenient method of cross-
referencing for a given industrial category.

     The second major consideration in setting numerical
limitations is the inhibition of treatment processes that
may be caused by particular incompatible pollutants.  In this
connection, Section E and Appendix 5 of this document provide
technical data on the inhibitory effects of both inorganic
and organic constituents of industrial wastewaters.  The
data presented represents a summary of information available
in the literature on this subject.  It should be used as a
guide in establishing a range of values, for specific pol-
lutants which may inhibit or upset treatment processes.
Nevertheless, a number of factors within a given collection
and treatment system will affect the acceptable level of a
specific pollutant in a specific treatment plant.  Of the
many factors to be considered, the type of treatment process
utilized is of prime importance.  In addition to the inherent
differences between unit processes such as activated sludge
and trickling filtration, other treatment considerations such
as chemical addition and wastewater  flow pattern strongly
affect inhibition characteristics.   Consequently, information
that may be available for a particular system should be
utilized preferentially as compared  to the data contained in
these guidelines.

     Additional factors to be  considered in setting limits
based on inhibition are the dilution available, and back-
ground  levels of  the pollutant present in the collection
system.  Dilution is primarily a  function of the size of the
system, ranging from insignificant dilution in many small
systems, to extremely  high  levels of dilution in very large
systems.   Several of the  largest  systems report that upset
                            C-8

-------
of treatment processes  is  extremely rare,  regardless of the
concentration of individual industrial contributions.  The
background level of  a specific pollutant in a sewerage system
should also be considered  in setting numerical standards
based on inhibition.  Normally this is a difficult deter-
mination, but information  from systems without industrial
contributors may be  helpful.  Also, monitoring of all indus-
trial dischargers and plant influent levels, with subsequent
calculations will reveal background levels within the system.

     In general, judgment  is required in developing approp-
riate limitations based on inhibition of treatment processes,
and all factors affecting  the determination must be taken
into account at the  local  level.   A final consideration in
establishing limitations based on inhibition, is the incor-
poration of an appropriate safety factor into the numerical
limits for each pollutant.  The inhibition data presented
in these guidelines  summarizes the results of studies
reported in the literature indicating actual numerical values
at which inhibition  or  process upset was observed for specific
pollutants.  Establishment of limitations based on this
information requires  the use of a suitable safety factor to
ensure that adequate  protection is provided for the treatment
process.

     The third major  consideration in setting specific limi-
tations is the pass  through of pollutants which would cause
the POTW to violate  its permit conditions or water quality
standards.  The method  required to establish limits for
industrial contributors based on permit or water quality
provisions is "back-calculating," using the allowable dis-
charge level in the  standard as a starting point.  This pro-
cedure requires knowledge  of the removal capability of the
treatment plant for  the pollutant parameters of interest, in
addition to information on dilution and background levels in
the system discussed above.  Frequently it is necessary to
sample, the influent  and effluent of the treatment plant to
establish its removal capability for a specific pollutant.
If data for the system  in  question is not available, the
removal information  contained in Section F and Appendix 6 may
be utilized to obtain average values for use in calculating
specific pollutant limitations.  Those portions of the docu-
ment present the results of a survey of 269 treatment plants
to determine the removal capability of treatment processes
in regard to various pollutant parameters.

     One major POTW  system has developed a formula for use
in establishing limits  on  its industrial contributors based
on allowable pollutant  concentrations in the treatment plant
                              C-9

-------
discharge set by the State.  The formula is as follows:

     L = (Le) JSl\ (R) (P)   (Reference C-47e, page V-22)
               -
where
     L  =  Maximum allowable concentration in an industrial
           wastewater discharge  (mg/1) .

     L  =  Allowable effluent concentration at the treatment
           plant (mg/1).
                            O*
     R  =  Dilution ratio = g—

     E  =  Treatment plant removal efficiency  (%)

     Q* =  Total daily dry weather flow to the treatment
           plant (millions of gallons) .

     Q  =  Total daily industrial flow to which L applies
           (millions of gallons) .

     P  =  Assumed ratio of the maximum to average concen-
           tration for any wastewater component in an  indus-
           trial wastewater discharge.

     S  =  Assumed portion of total that can be controlled
      In this formula, L is determined for each pollutant
parameter  for which an Le has been established.  The  dilution
ratio (R)  is estimated by determining the total  flow  (Q)
of  all industries to be regulated for the pollutant in
question,  and dividing it into  the total flow to the  treatment
plant (Q*) .  Values for E, the  treatment plant removal
efficiency for  the pollutant parameter, should be based on
operating  experience of the specific treatment plant.  If
such information is unavailable, data for similar treatment
 facilities presented  In Section F may be utilized.  The peak
•to average ratio,  P,  is an estimate of  the  ratio of the nax-
 imum concentration of  a constituent in  an industrial  effluent
 to the average  concentration  of the constituent  for all
 industries included in Q.  The  more tightly a pollutant is
 controlled, the lower  this ratio will be.   The factor S is
included to account for background levels in  the system.  If
there is no background level for a particular pollutant,
with industry providing the total concentration, then the
value of S is 1.0.
                             C-10

-------
     The originators  of  the  formula,  the County Sanitation
Districts of Los Angeles County,  have utilized it to aid in
determining allowable pollutant  concentrations for industrial
dischargers within  the system.   Table C-l provides a numerical
illustration of how the  formula  was  applied to the ocean
standards established by the State of California for arsenic,
cadmium, chromium,  copper,  lead,  mercury, nickel, silver, zinc,
and cyanide.  The table  is  included  herein only as a guide for
utilization of the  formula,  and  not  for the presentation of
numerical information.  Subsequent data obtained by the County
Sanitation Districts  has resulted in a revision of many of the
values shown in the table,  particularly for the factors R and
S.  POTW's applying the  formula  to their own situation must
determine applicable  values for  all  of the factors in the
formula based on  the  characteristics of the individual system.
In summary, the  formula  provides a systematic method for
establishing specific numerical  limitations for industrial
pollutants based  on the  allowable concentration of each
pollutant in the  treatment plant effluent.

     Responsible  State or local  regulating agencies should
recognize that concentration based limitations have some  in-
herent deficiencies,  particularly where the ordinances'  nu-
merical limitations are intended to  meet water quality require-
ments.  Mainly,  in cases where water and sewer costs are  less
than the cost of installing and  operating pretreatment facil-
ities, industrial dischargers may be tempted to use dilution
to comply with the concentration limitations, resulting  in the
degradation of water  quality.  Dilution could result from the
addition of city water,  non-contact  cooling water or relatively
clean process water or storm water.

     To detect diluters, the responsible authority should review
industrial plans and  specifications  for pretreatment facilities,
and use on-site inspection of pretreatment facilities and plant
piping to determine that the appropriate pretreatment facilities
have been installed,  are being operated, and that there  are no
permanent connections for dilution water.  Additionally,  close
surveillance of water meter readings and records can often pin-
point diluters.   However, this is usually most effective  when
the concentration limitations first become effective and  are
first enforced.   With these safeguards, concentration limitations
will usually provide  an effective and enforceable means  of
preventing the pass through of pollutants which could cause the
POTW to violate its permit conditions or water quality standards.

     Other Regulatory Sections

     Section 4 of the recommended ordinance establishes  the
authority and procedure for the control of prohibited wastes.
It includes the necessary clauses relative to regulatory  actions,
submission of plans for pretreatment facilities, proper  opera-

tion and maintenance of  pretreatment facilities,  admission of
POTW personnel to industrial plants and reporting of accidental
discharges.   Section  5 of the ordinance is devoted to sampling
and analysis of industrial wastewater.   Several clauses are
included with regard  to  monitoring, encompassing the type and
frequency of samples  and the allocation of costs for sampling and
analysis.  Section D  of  these guidelines includes a complete
summary of monitoring information for the sampling and analysis
of industrial wastewaters.

     The section of the  recommended ordinance dealing with
enforcement provides  a structured approach for the handling
of violations.  The first step in the procedure is notifica-
tion in writing of the violation, followed by conference and
conciliation.  If these  steps are unsuccessful in solving
the problem, then more formal proceedings are instituted.
The first is a show cause hearing, which provides the violator
with an opportunity to show cause why an order should not be
issued directing the  discontinuance of the discharge.  Show
cause hearings are usually open to the public, and held before
a hearing board composed of appropriate officials of the
municipality, authority  or district.  Upon submission of
all evidence, the hearing board has the option of issuing an
order for the cessation  of the discharge within a specified  time
period.  If an order is  issued, and not complied with, then
court action is the next and final step in enforcement of the
ordinance.  This step-by-step approach to enforcement provides
the maximum opportunity for the resolution of ordinance vio-
lations without resorting to court proceedings until absolutely
necessary.

     Optional and Procedural Clauses

     The two major optional clauses contained in the recommended
ordinance pertain to a permit program and the use of self-
monitoring for industrial contributors to the system.  Local
permit programs are most applicable to large systems, and to
date have been used successfully by several large regional
agencies.  Permit programs greatly increase the paper work
associated with industrial pollutant control programs.
Although the onus for filing permits is placed on the industries
in the system, the POTW must nevertheless scrutinize the permits
for completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, etc.  The use of
permits can be particularly advantageous in instituting a control
program in a large system.  At the outset, industries must
self-monitor and provide all relevant information on their
discharges, thus relieving the POTW staff from this initial
data gathering task.   Local permit programs offer an option
which is systematic and thorough, but one which requires a well-
trained capable staff to administer.
                              C-13

-------
     Self-monitoring is frequently used in conjunction with a
permit program.   Industries are generally required, under
these programs,  to self-monitor for the completion of a permit
application.  Self-monitoring reports are then generally
required at varying frequencies to update discharge information.
In any event, monitoring for compliance and enforcement
activities, and  demand monitoring to alleviate operating
problems in the  system, usually remain the responsibility of
the POTW.  Few systems utilize self-monitoring as an option
for compliance monitoring or any function other than initial
data gathering and periodic review.

     The procedural clauses included in the recommended
ordinance serve  several varying functions.  The principal
clause provides  that the bulk of the ordinance remains in
force if any section is declared invalid or unconstitutional.
Only the affected section is no longer in force, thus "saving"
the remainder of the ordinance.  This section also references
other related ordinances and reconciles differences that may
exist between the various ordinances.  Finally, the procedural
clauses establish the authority of the manager of the system,
and set forth the date that the ordinance becomes effective.

                        MONITORING

Functions of a Monitoring Program

     Introduction

     As outlined in the preceding sections, the management of
a pollutant control program requires a constant flow of infor-
mation on the quality and quantity of industrial contributions
to the publicly owned system.  In general, the function of a
monitoring program is to provide a mechanism by which the POTW
operator can obtain information on the pollutants introduced
into the sewer system.  The information obtained through mon-
itoring activities may then be applied to specific areas of
concern to the municipality.  These specific areas include
compliance to ordinance requirements, ascertaining surcharge
fees, and completion of reports required by EPA.  Additionally,
the POTW operator may use monitoring information to determine
the contributors who are responsible for releasing materials
potentially harmful to collection or treatment systems.

     Depending on the specific situation, information obtained
by monitoring may also be used in the development of the
ordinance and in its enforcement.  Monitoring information can
be especially useful in developing those sections of the
ordinance that set levels for incompatible pollutants, as
well as determining orders of magnitude for an equitable
system of surcharge fees.  As a result, ordinance development
and enforcement work hand in hand with monitoring activities.

     Although monitoring in a broad sense performs the single
function of transferring quantitative and qualitative informa-
tion on non-residential contributors, specific subfunctions
should also be completed to provide a total program.   For mon-
itoring, there are well defined intermediate steps that should
be accomplished during the course of the overall program.   In
a well managed system for industrial pollutant control, informa-
tion should be transferred in a closed loop where monitoring,
ordinance  compliance, ordinance enforcement and surcharge fee
determination all input to one another.  A typical monitoring
feedback system is depicted in Figure D-l.   Each of the mon-
itoring functions shown are discussed in detail in the follow-
ing paragraphs.   The interrelation  of each function is
addressed with commentary included  on the implementation of
the specific monitoring activity.

     Development of a Data Base

     NPDES permits issued to POTWs often stipulate that the
permittee must promulgate an enforceable ordinance.  In
addition, the permittee is required to submit reports and
forms to the EPA regional office concerning the character-
istics of contributions from major contributing industries
 (MCI's)within their system.  Once an ordinance is in effect,
reports on the progress of the MCI's toward compliance
are usually required.  The ordinance cannot be completely
developed unless the municipality or authority has acquired
preliminary information on non-residential contributions in
the system.  The mechanism for obtaining this data base is
provided by the requirement in the typical NPDES permit
that the permittee must submit, for each MCI within its
system, an EPA Standard Form A - Municipal; Section IV
entitled "Industrial Waste Contribution to Municipal Systems."
Completion of the Section IV form requires information on
production, wastewater flow and wastewater concentration.
This information can serve as an initial data base, from which
the municipality or authority can plan or implement its
industrial pollutant control program.  The Section IV form is
only required by EPA for MCI's.  However, this form provides a
convenient tool that could be utilized by municipalities to
obtain data on all industrial establishments within their juris-
diction.  C9nsequently, a systematic approach to obtaining
Section IV information should be developed.  An important
preliminary step in this regard is the location, evaluation
and classification of non-residential contributors.  In order
to develop the Section IV data base, two specific tasks must
be completed;   the identification of non-residential contrib-
utors,  and differentiating between major and minor sources.

     For the small municipality, identifying contributors
within the wastewater collection system is usually an easy
task.   The plant operator, or the system's superintendent,
is generally familiar with the area served, and the contribu-
tors within it.   For larger systems, and those small systems
where this familiarity does not exist,  identifying industrial
contributors can be more complex.  The location of wastewater
sources can be accomplished by using the various listings of
commercial establishments that are available to the public.
Such listings  include:

     —Labor Department Records
     —Property Tax Records
     —Chamber of Commerce Rosters
     —Census  Bureau Records
     —Local Telephone  Directory
     —Water Consumption Records


                            D-3

-------
These documents can provide a variety of information on
industrial establishments, such as location, product line,
production volume and water usage.

    Combining the information that can be obtained from the
individual listings can provide the municipality with an
understanding of which contributors may be considered major
or minor.  Using the criteria for an MCI established by the
EPA, a preliminary breakdown between major and minor con-
tributors generally can be established on the basis of flow.
In addition to the Federal definition of a major industry,
the municipality must decide, on the basis of specific factors
in the POTW system, which industrial facilities to consider
significant contributors.  The EPA definition of an MCI should
be used as a first step in a major-minor delineation.  However,
other factors including water quality standards, and the POTW's
sensitivity to a particular type of wastewater, must also be
taken into account.  Establishing a list of significant con-
tributing industries on this basis requires direct contact with
industry, and detailed analysis or evaluation of each plant's
wastewater.

    Once a preliminary list of possible MCI's and other signi-
ficant industries has been developed, each major contributor
should be classified into the proper Standard Industrial
Category (SIC).  This may be accomplished by matching the
industry's products or commercial activities to the SIC codes
as listed in the Standard Industrial Classification Manual
published by the Executive Office of the President; Office of
Management and Budget.  Depending on the size and resources
of the municipality or authority, the MCI's might be required
to self-monitor their effluent to provide the Section IV
analytical information.  If the municipality has the resources,
it may elect to do analytical surveys on its own.  Once the
Section IV reports have been completed, the municipality can
then use this information as a data base for the development
of ordinance stipulations, including compliance requirements
and surcharge fee schedules.

    Scheduled Monitoring

    Scheduled monitoring involves the systematic sampling
and inspection of significant industrial contributors to the
POTW system in accordance with a predetermined schedule.   The
schedule should be developed by the POTW personnel administer-
ing the industrial pollutant control program, and should be
maintained as confidential information so that the industries
in the system are unaware of contemplated monitoring visits.
The schedule should attempt to provide for the monitoring of
each significant industrial contributor at least once per


                           D-4

-------
year if at all possible.  If resources do not permit this
type of coverage, then visits should be planned as often
as possible within the limitations of available resources.

    Scheduled monitoring should serve a number of specific
needs, including:  (1) checking for compliance with the
ordinance, (2) surcharge, user charge and industrial cost
recovery determinations, and (3) completion of required
EPA reports.   Scheduled compliance monitoring should be
aimed at obtaining all the information necessary to determine
adherence to the local ordinance.  The information required
for surcharge, user charge and capital cost recovery coincides
to a large degree with the data necessary for the completion
of required EPA reports.  In addition to the Section IV
forms, many NPDES permits require the  municipality to
furnish the EPA with periodic reports on the progress of
industrial contributors toward compliance with pretreatment
regulations.   Also, if the POTW is the recipient of Federal
construction grant funds, it is required by Federal regulations
to review user charges on an annual basis.  This review would
usually require that the municipality monitor the quality
and quantity of major industrial contributors.  Even if the
municipality has not been granted Federal funds, a periodic
review of surcharge fees is usually needed to keep abreast
of changing conditions in the system.

    The three elements of scheduled monitoring outlined above
(compliance,  surcharge and EPA reports), although designed
to meet differing needs, all require a similar field effort
and technique.  All three should be conducted on a reasonably
rigorous basis to assure the validity of the data obtained.
Each element of scheduled monitoring may require 'an extended
survey of a particular plant's contribution to the municipal
sewer.  As a result,  scheduled monitoring should provide for
a single visit to a specific industrial facility for the dur-
ation of time necessary to obtain all data required for the
purposes indicated above.

    In general, scheduled monitoring would include on-site
inspection of pretreatment facilities and plant operations,
and composite samples and flow measurements taken
over a period of several days.   On-site inspection is
necessary to  insure that pretreatment facilities are being
operated properly and to detect any dilution of plant waste-
waters.  The  determination of flow is important for several
reasons.   Primarily,  flow information is essential in the
calculation of surcharge or user charge fees.  Additionally,
flow readings are necessary as an added safeguard against
dilution and  to confirm the validity of concentration measure-
ments taken for ordinance compliance.  The degree of care
                            D-5

-------
and conformance to established procedures in obtaining samples
and flow measurements during scheduled monitoring visits is
an extremely important consideration.   Information obtained
during this process may ultimately be  used in enforcement
activities culminating in court action.  Additionally, in the
determination of surcharges or user charges, the municipality
may be compelled to monitor with sufficient rigor to satisfy
the industry that the information obtained is sufficiently
accurate.  This situation is especially valid in those cases
where sewer use charges are a significant expense for the
industry.

    Although  detailed composite sampling may be most desirable
for compliance monitoring, simple grab samples may often be
sufficient to determine ordinance compliance.  It is recognized
that many POTW systems do not have sufficient resources to
monitor each significant contributing  industry once per year
for a period of several days.  The essential aspect is to
obtain a sample that will have sufficient validity should it
become necessary to use the data for enforcement activities.
The applicability of less rigorous sampling, such as simple
grab samples, depends largely on the stipulations of the
ordinance concerning sampling technique and the municipality's
ability to enforce the ordinance using the data derived from
a grab sample.

    Unscheduled Surveillance

    In addition to the planned approach, POTW's should institute
a less formal type of compliance monitoring designed to provide
a spot check of industrial contributors.  This random type of
compliance monitoring should be focused on maintaining a degree
of surveillance, and would generally not be formally planned
by the POTW.

    Scheduled compliance monitoring is designed primarily to
establish the characteristics of contributions from major
sources, whereas unscheduled surveillance attempts to randomly
survey all sources within the system.   By checking all con-
tributors over an extended period of time, the municipality
can continue to expand its data base,  and keep abreast of
trends and changes within the system.   This type of monitor-
ing should be conducted on a random basis, with contributors
being observed during normal operation, thus providing infor-
mation on the true nature of the wastewater.  If ordinance
violations are suspected, the information obtained during
unscheduled surveillance can also be used to evaluate the
need for further, more detailed, evaluation of a particular
contributor.
                            D-6

-------
    Unscheduled surveillance can be conducted with  less
 rigor than scheduled compliance monitoring.  Since  sur-
 veillance activities are intended only to provide a quick
 spot check to determine the need for future more detailed
 analysis and evaluation, this type of monitoring can be
 less formal than a full compliance monitoring visit.
 Unscheduled surveillance should involve no more than a few
 samples, perhaps composited over a short period of  time,
 and a cursory inspection of plant operations and pretreatment
 activities.  Where resources are limited, grab samples are
 frequently used for this type of surveillance.  Flow measure-
 ments may be taken if facilities are available to obtain
 readings without difficulty.

    Bemand Monitoring

    As the name implies, demand monitoring should be conducted
 when an upset or other disruption of system operation occurs,
 which may have been caused by an industrial source.  Additionally
 any discharge of prohibited or limited materials can prompt
 demand monitoring.  Specific occurrences that may initiate a
 demand monitoring sequence are as follows:

  .  1.  Contributions of Explosive or Corrosive
        Materials to the Sewer

    Release of these types of materials are generally pro-
 hibited by the municipal ordinance.  Because of the magnitude
 and immediacy of the potential impact of explosive  or corro-
 sive materials, swift location of the source is essential.
 The most effective means of locating sources of explosive
 or corrosive materials is by utilizing sewer back tracking,
 which is a systematic search upstream through the sewer
 system until the source is pinpointed.

    2.  Operating Difficulties

    Treatment plant and collection system operating diffi-
 culties can also prompt demand monitoring.  One of  the more
 serious operating problems is caused by the release of mat-
 erials into sewers which can cause blockages or plugging.
 Similarly,  excessive quantities of viscous or floating solids
 entering a treatment-plant can disrupt unit operations such
 as sludge digestion.   The presence of excessive foaming can
 also cause operating difficulties,  and may prompt a demand
 search.   In general,  any upset of normal operating routine
may be considered cause for initiating demand monitoring.
                           D-7

-------
     3.  Violation of the POTW's  Permit  Requirements

     A POTW1 s permit generally contains limits on the concen-
trations of specific pollutants that it can discharge to nav-
igable waters.   If the treatment process is disrupted to the
extent that these limits are exceeded, it becomes the respon-
sibility of the municipality to determine the source of the
materials that might be passing through the system, or caus-
ing poor removal of the pollutants that the treatment system
is designed to remove.

     4.  Violation of Pretreatment Regulations

     Since many NPDES permits require the development of an
ordinance that contains requirements for compliance by MCI's
to pretreatment regulations, a suspected violation of these.
standards can initiate demand monitoring.  In such cases,
demand monitoring should provide information on the cause
of interferences, and the responsible party.  In these sit-
uations, demand monitoring can be most successful when the
municipality has access to a good data base.  Using data
base information, the probable sources of interfering mat-
erials can generally be determined and monitored so that
responsibility can be properly assigned.

     It should be noted that in those cases where demand
monitoring is prompted by the presence of an explosive mat-
erial, the removal of the explosion hazard must have top
priority.  It is unwise to attempt sewer backtracking until
any possible danger has been eliminated.

     Self-Monitoring

     Many of the monitoring activities that have been out-
lined  in the preceding paragraphs require that samples be
taken  at the effluent of  an industrial contributor, and'
analyzed for appropriate  pollutant parameters.  Depending
on the available resources and manpower, the municipality
may not be  able to perform all of the various monitoring
functions required for industrial contributors.  At a min-
imum,  the municipality should attempt to conduct, with
their  own personnel,  compliance  and demand monitoring
activities  for all significant industrial contributors within
the  system.  However, complete coverage of all contributors
within the  system may be  more difficult to implement using
municipal personnel  and  resources.  One way to circumvent
this problem is  to require each  major contributor to do its
own  sampling and analysis, a function which is usually termed
self-monitoring.
                             D-8

-------
     Self-monitoring systems require that a mechanism for
reporting and record-keeping be maintained by the industrial
establishment.  Periodic reports would generally be sent
directly to the municipality.  The recordkeeping function
permits access to a history of source quantity and quality
which can aid in both data base development and compliance
determination.

     Self-monitoring can be particularly helpful in the
development of the initial data base.  Forms can be forwarded
to industrial contributors requesting information on the flow
and pollutant characteristics of their effluents.   This  type of
approach is most applicable where a local permit program is
utilized, and the form then becomes a permit applicaton.  Data
accumulated in this manner can serve as the basis for estab-
lishment of an industrial pollutant control program, with
verification achieved through subsequent compliance monitoring.

     Enforcement

     An important function of a monitoring program is its
ability to provide specific information required by enforce-
ment activities.  Enforcement implies that there has been a
violation of a regulation.  In general, municipalities will
use monitoring information to assess deviations from ordinance
stipulations.  If conducted with the proper rigor and quality
control, wastewater sampling and analysis previously performed
by the municipality can be used in enforcement activities
directed at ordinance violators.  Self-monitoring information
generally is not used for enforcement.  If an industry is
aware that its contribution is in violation of the ordinance,
it is not likely that it would be willing to submit such data
to the municipality for use in enforcement proceedings.   There-
fore, self-monitoring data should not be considered suitable
for enforcement activities.  Instead, the municipality should
rely on its own monitoring information, legally obtained, with
proper technical execution.

Field Considerations in Monitoring

     Background

     Organizational and managerial aspects of a monitoring
program may vary considerably from system to system, but the
approach to the technical problems encountered in any field
monitoring activities remain fairly constant.  The need to
maintain rigor and objectivity dictates that sound, uniform
                             D-9

-------
and well defined procedures be maintained during plant inves-
tigations and sampling programs.  Some guidance on how to
develop and carry out a monitoring program is available in
an EPA Technology Transfer document entitled "Handbook for
Monitoring Industrial Wastewater."  This handbook describes
technical aspects of monitoring, but its major emphasis is
directed at industries discharging directly to navigable
waters that are engaged in self-monitoring activities.
Although many of the details remain the same, field consider-
ations for monitoring industrial contributors in a pretreat-
ment situation have a slightly different orientation.  Special
field considerations for monitoring pollutants introduced into
POTW's are outlined in this section.

     An ordinance will generally prohibit, or set limits on
the release of specific materials to the municipal wastewater
treatment system.  Wastes that cause an explosion hazard, or
block or corrode the sewer are generally completely prohibited.
Other pollutants that may either inhibit biological processes,
or pass through the system, may be limited by ordinance.  It
is therefore essential that the monitoring program supply data
on the contributions of prohibited and limited substances as
stipulated in the ordinance.  Furthermore, the ordinance may
establish the frequencies and the type of sampling required
for non-residential contributors.  Monitoring activities must
also be coordinated with these aspects of the ordinance.

     The approach to monitoring  in the field subdivides into
three basic categories:   (1) Monitoring on a scheduled and
planned basis,  (2) Unscheduled surveillance on a random
basis, and  (3) Demand monitoring prompted by an emergency
condition or violation of standards.  Field considerations
in plant sampling during a planned visit or random visit for
unscheduled surveillance are similar  in many respects,
although less rigor  is required  during an unscheduled visit.
Consequently, details on the field aspects of monitoring
have only been provided for scheduled and demand monitoring,
since the information provided under  scheduled monitoring
may generally be used as a guide for  unscheduled surveillance.

    Scheduled Monitoring

    Scheduling

    An attempt should be made  to systematically cover all
significant contributing  industries annually if resources
permit.  After  initial  data base development, monitoring should
be conducted at  each major  contributor to determine progress
toward compliance.   Once  compliance is achieved, the contributor


                            D-10

-------
must be sampled periodically to assess continued compliance.
Additionally, when a scheduled compliance monitoring visit
uncovers a violation, scheduling should be altered to provide
more detailed analysis of the wastewater.  This extended
sampling program is normally required to obtain data suffi-
ciently valid for enforcement activities.

     In all cases, the frequency and order of investigations
should be determined on the basis of size and importance of
the contributor.  Sampling should be started with the largest,
or most significant industry.  Once the major industries are
covered for data base and initial compliance purposes, a
continuing program of follow-up monitoring should be instituted.
It may not be within the resources of the municipality to
cover all contributors within its system thoroughly and equally.
A schedule in which major contributors are monitored more
frequently than minor contributors will generally be necessary.

     Preparation for a Monitoring Visit

     Industries should not be notified prior to scheduled
monitoring or unscheduled surveillance visits.  It is gen-
erally agreed that by not giving prior notice to the industry,
the samples that are obtained will be more representative of
daily operation.

     Prior to sampling at a contributor,  the sampling crew or
inspector should obtain specific information about the indus-
try.   During the initial visit a plant inspection report should
be prepared.   Several specific items should be included in this
report:

     —A sketch of the location of all wastewater effluent
       lines that flow into the publicly owned sewer
       system.  The sketch should also include the layout
       of major plant features.

    —A description of major product lines and processes
       utilized within the plant.  For MCI's this informa-
       tion may be obtained from the Section IV report.

     —A detailed description and appropriate sketches of
       existing pretreatment facilities, including operating
       data if available.

     —A list of pollutants of interest at the plant, with
       emphasis on materials limited or prohibited by the
       ordinance.
                             D-ll

-------
     Equipment

     On-site inspection,  flow measurement and sampling should
be accomplished during each visit.   Accurate flow measurement
and sampling techniques are of prime importance in obtaining
valid monitoring information.  Both flow measurements and sampl-
ing can be accomplished either manually or through the use of
automatic devices.  Three types of  sampling may be utilized:

     —Grab samples, in which a single volume of wastewater
       is obtained and analyzed.  This type of sample will
       not always provide an accurate measure of wastewater
       characteristics, especially  when the flow is heter-
       ogeneous, or varies with time.

     —Simple composite sampling is a timed sequential
       collection of equal volume grab samples that are
       combined in a single reservoir.  This type of
       sample can give a partial evaluation of the
       variability of wastewater composition with time.
       It does not provide any measure of the total
       pounds of pollutant discharged since pollutant
       loading is a flow related value.

     —Flow proportioned composite samples are obtained by
       collecting incremental samples with volumes propor-
       tional to flow.  This type of sample, when analyzed
       and compared to total flow,provides the most
       accurate measure of wastewater quality and pollutant
       loading.

     Automatic sampling devices that can obtain all three
sampling types are commercially available.  These automatic
samplers vary over a wide range in cost, applicability and
reliability.  Two EPA documents are available which provide
thorough evaluation of commercial automatic samplers:

     —"Sampling of Wastewater," by Philip E. Shelley
        Available through EPA Technology Transfer

     —"Wastewater  Sampling Methodologies and Flow
        Measurement Techniques"
        EPA  Report  907/9-74-005

     The second document also includes information on the
performance  of portable automatic flow measuring devices.
There  are considerably fewer devices of this type on the
market than  automatic  samplers.  However, a few portable
instruments  are available that can provide reasonably
accurate flow measurement data.
                            D-12

-------
     For the smaller system,  or those municipalities that
have only limited resources,  both sampling and flow measure-
ment may be accomplished using manual techniques.  All three
sample types can be collected using manual methods.  In gen-
eral, there is little equipment commercially available for
manual sampling.  What is usually needed is an extendable
pole, with a stoppered bottle attached to the end.  This
type of sampling pole can be easily fabricated.  The sample
bottle should be hinged so that it can be tilted to align
parallel to the wastewater flow.  This orientation allows
for sampling from very shallow streams.  The bottle stopper
should be attached to a string so that it can be removed
while the sample bottle is submerged.

     With regard to flow determination, the accuracy of any
flow measurement depends greatly on the control surface utilized,
Some ordinances may require that major contributors install a
special control manhole designed to provide sufficient access
for sampling and an appropriate control surface for flow
measurement.  Depending on the situation, permanent flow
recording equipment may also be required.  The installation
of a standard weir or flume makes flow measurement a simple
matter of measuring wastewater depth.  No control  surface  is
completely accurate, but the combined use of  a quality auto-
matic flow mesuring device and  a control surface  can typically
yield flow measurement  accuracy of better than j^ 15%.

     Special attention  should be paid to the  accuracy of
sampling activities.  Whereas flow measurement accuracy can
be held to the  15% level, sampling errors can range up to
200% of the true value.  The basic problem results  from the
fact that the typical industrial waste may have  a large pro-
portion of its  pollutants in the form of suspended  solids.
As a result, it is important that the quantity of suspended
solids entrained during sampling be  proportional  to the sus-
pended solid content of the total wastewater  stream.  Common
practice is to  simply place a suction tube in the wastewater
flow, or to immerse an  open sampling bottle in the  stream.
Since solids entrainment is a velocity controlled process,
an attempt should be made to obtain  samples isokinetically.
There should be a minimum fluid velocity difference between
the  interior and exterior of the sampling tube.   Accomplish-
ing  this type of sampling is a  difficult procedure, but the
situation can be significantly  improved by aligning the  sam-
ple  tube such that  it is facing upstream and  is  secured
rigidly  in place.  Because of the potential for  large errors
associated with sampling, it  is essential that extreme  care
be exercised  in. selecting sampling  devices and procedures.
                               D-13

-------
     Sample Handling

     Once an accurate sample has been obtained, several steps
should be taken to assure that the validity and objectivity
of the monitoring operation is maintained.  All samples must
be properly preserved.  Sample preservation techniques are
outlined in various analytical handbooks such as Standard
Methods and the EPA,Chemical Methods Manual.  The content
of these and other similar handbooks are discussed in more
detail in the section devoted to laboratory considerations
in monitoring.

     Because of the heterogeneous nature of many industrial
wastewaters, the parameters to be analyzed may require the
use of incompatible stabilizing reagents.  To solve this
problem, it is usually necessary to take a relatively large
volume of sample, so that it may be divided for appropriate
preservation.  In addition to assuring adequate volume for
sample preservation, sufficient sample size must be maintained
so that a portion of the sample can be offered to the indus-
trial contributor.  The option should be given to the industry
of independently checking the municipality's analytical
results if they so desire.

     Chain of Possession

     Once an appropriate sample is obtained and properly
stabilized, it is essential that the possession of the sam-
ple be properly documented.  That is, the person completing
the field sampling should maintain a log, containing pertin-
ent information such as date, time and location of the sam-
pling activity.  Before releasing the sample to the labora-
tory, or any other appropriate official, a signed receipt
should be obtained documenting the exchange.  As the sample
is transported, a continuous history of its condition and
locations should be maintained through successive log entries
and receipts.

      The reason  for  such  caution  in the handling and transfer
of  samples  stems  from the  need to be certain of sample inte-
grity as part of  any enforcement  activity.  It should be
assumed  that  every  scheduled compliance monitoring sample may
become  evidence  in  a court of  law. In practice, few ordinance
violations  will  require legal action, but nevertheless, sample
integrity must be maintained.  If the municipality cannot
prove that  a  sample  has not been mishandled or tampered with,
then  any inferences  regarding the quality of the wastewater
that  the sample  represents  fall into jeopardy.  It is therefore
essential  that a  chain of  possession be maintained and recorded,


                              D-14

     On-Site Safety

     Visitors to industrial establishments are usually
required to abide by any safety regulations observed by plant
management.  Ideally,  access to wastewater flows should be
available from manholes or junction boxes located outside of
plant property.  In this way, plant inspectors would not be
exposed to any hazardous activities and would be able to sam-
ple without the need to gain entry to the plant.  Unfortunately,
accessible manholes located outside of plant boundaries are
rare, and consequently inspectors are generally required to
enter upon plant property.  Under these circumstances, all
pertinent safety rules in force at the plant must be adhered
to.  The first step upon presenting credentials and entering
the plant, is to notify appropriate plant management, and
request applicable safety information.  In most cases, a
formal set of safety rules are in effect, and these rules
should be recorded and, filed with the plant inspection report.

     Minimum safety equipment that must be carried by each
inspector or inspection crew includes:

     —Hard Hat
     —Safety Goggles
     —Rubber Gloves,  Boots and Other Protective Clothing
     —First Aid Kit

 Special  safety precautions  and  equipment  are  necessary  for
 any sampling  activity  that  requires manhole entry.   The
 most dangerous aspect  of  sewer  sampling and inspection  is
 the possible  presence  of  dangerous gases in sewers.  These
 gases  may include  either  explosive vapors or  poisonous  mix-
 tures.   Conversely, there may be  an oxygen deficiency in .
 the sewer.   In order to avoid possible  injury,  several  pre-
 cautions should be taken  and proper equipment should be util-
 ized during the course of sewer inspection as follows:

     —Manholes should be opened  with a hook  rather than
       a pry bar.   Using  a  hook reduces the possibility
       of having metal rub  against metal,  causing  a
       spark and possible explosion.

     —Before entering a  manhole,  the atmosphere within
       the sewer should be  tested for oxygen  content,
       explosion hazard and poisonous gases.   Several
       portable, probe type oxygen and  explosion meters
       are commercially available.  Equipment of this
       type should be  utilized  during every  sewer  entry.
       Many types  of  indicating ampoules  and  gas
       detection test  kits are  available  which can
       signal the  presence of poisonous gases.   A
                               D-15

-------
       complete set of such test materials must be
       present and utilized during each 3ewer inspection.

     —Appropriate gas masks and breathing mask respirators
       should be used whenever there is the slightest
       indication of danger.

     Actual entry into a manhole requires additional special
safety precautions.  Although nearly all manholes are built
with ladder rungs, these rungs may have been used infrequently,
As a result of the often corrosive atmosphere in a manhole,
it is not advisable to use sewer ladder rungs, since it is
possible that they may not be structurally sound.  Descent
into a manhole should be accomplished utilizing a portable
rigid ladder or flexible rope ladder.  Even when a ladder
is used, each individual entering a manhole should be har-
nessed with a safety rope leading to the surface.  In this
way, in the event of a fall, asphyxiation or other injury,
the individual can be pulled to the surface with relative
ease.

     Fire safety should always be practiced whenever within
an industrial plant or near an open manhole.  No open flames
should be permitted, and all equipment should be explosion
proof.and water resistant.  Since many manholes are located
on streets or other thoroughfares, additional sarety pre-
cautions should be taken to avoid automobile accidents and
the possibility of pedestrians falling into open manholes.
Consequently, appropriate pylons, barricades and flashing
lights should be used in the vicinity of the manholes.

     Equipment Set-Up and Field Analysis

     In the absence of a control manhole equipped with
brackets or ledges for mounting automatic samplers and flow
measuring devices, a method must be devised for securing and
mounting equipment.  Within the boundaries of a plant some
degree of security can be assumed, but unattended sampling
points in public areas can be tempting to vandals.  One solu-
tion to this type of field problem is the use of a self-
contained trailer or van outfitted with appropriate materials
and equipment.  A further advantage to using a monitoring
vehicle is that the time required for set-up and removal of
equipment is greatly reduced.  Furthermore, the vehicle can
be outfitted with appropriate field analytical equipment.
Certain parameters require immediate analysis upon sampling,
such as dissolved oxygen and pH.  Equipment for these analy-
yses can be mounted in the vehicle to facilitate rapid
analysis.
                             D-16

-------
     For the small system,  resources may not be available,
nor the need apparent,  for  a sophisticated well equipped
monitoring vehicle.   At the very least, a compact package
containing necessary equipment should be utilized.  A mini-
mum number of separate  equipment packages should be main-
tained, with the dimensions of a foot locker being an ideal
size for each equipment carrier.

     Continuous On-Line Monitoring

     In recent years, equipment has been developed which can
automatically monitor various wastewater characteristics.
For industrial wastewaters, numerous constituents may be of
interest.  However,  as  a result of operating difficulties,
generally only a few parameters can be successfully analyzed
on a continuous basis.   The sensors typically used in auto-
matic monitoring equipment  are often very sensitive to inter-
ferences found in wastewater, and as a consequence great care
should be exercised in choosing this type of specialized
equipment.  Because of the  commonly encountered operating
difficulties, continuous on-line monitors generally require
a high level of maintenance and attention.  If the equipment
works well, it can serve as an excellent source of continuous
data which will not only aid in wastewater evaluation, but
can help in evaluating process operations as well.  Various
manufacturers offer continuous on-line analytical equipment
which  can provide excellent monitoring information.  However,
it  should be noted that automatic analysis is  still a develop-
ing technology, which should be approached with an appropriate
degree of caution.

     Demand Monitoring

     Unlike scheduled monitoring in which a planned and  orderly
approach can be maintained, demand monitoring  results from
emergency conditions occurring on a random basis.  As outlined
under  the functions of a monitoring program, specific emergency
conditions can prompt a demand monitoring sequence.  These
situations include:

     —Explosion Hazard
     —Slugs of Inhibitory Materials
     —Plant Upsets
     —Sewer Blockages
     —Violations of the POTWs NPDES  Permit
     —Any danger to public health or  safety
                             D-17

-------
     For demand monitoring, rapid initial detection and
prompt location of the violator are essential.  To facilitate
detection, it is advisable where possible that permanent con-
tinuous surveillance stations be established at key points
throughout the collection system.  As soon as an abnormal
wastewater quality or flow rate is detected, either at the
treatment plant or at some point in the collection system,
an immediate investigation should be initiated.  This inves-
tigation should be systematic, back tracking in the sewer
until the source of the violation is located.

     As a result of the transient nature of many violations,
it is essential that analytical work done in the course of
sewer back tracking be completed rapidly.  Presence of a
prohibited or limited material in a sewer cannot be used as
evidence that a specific industry is the source of the prob-
lem.  As a result, it is advisable to use quick spot-check
methods during back tracking operations.  Once the source
of the problem is located, then rigorous analytical techniques
should be utilized to facilitate possible enforcement
activities.

Laboratory Considerations in Monitoring

     .Once an administrative approach, and technical method-
ology are developed for obtaining industrial wastewater- sam-
ples, a mechanism for accurate and rapid analysis of the
samples must be provided.  It is essential that analytical
results be accurate and reproducible to assure that monitoring
activities will provide the quality of information necessary
for a successful industrial pollutant control program.

     Standard Analytical Techniques

     Precise and well recognized techniques have been estab-
lished for the analysis of wastewaters.  EPA has promulgated
rules and regulations on this subject entitled "Guidelines
Establishing Test Procedures for Analysis of Pollutants,"
dated October 15, 1973 with a proposed revision dated June
9, 1975  (Appendix 4).  These, rules stipulate specific anal-
ytical methods that are recommended by EPA for the determi-
nation of 71 chemical and biological parameters as reported
in three analytical handbooks.  The three referenced manuals
are:

     —"Manual of Methods for Chemical Analysis of
        Water and Wastes," available through EPA
        Technology Transfer
                             D-18

-------
     —"Standard Methods for the Examination of
        Water and Wastewater,"  published by the
        American Public Health  Association

     —"Annual Book of Standards, Part 23, Water,
        Atmospheric Analysis, 1972," published by
        the American Society for Testing and
        Materials (ASTM)

     Each of these documents provides a short synopsis of the
analytical method for each parameter, information on inter-
fering substances, and step-by-step instructions on how to
carry out the analysis.  Also included is information on the
calculation of results, the precision and accuracy of the
analytical method, and techniques for chemically stabilizing
and preserving samples.

     These three publications should be considered a minimum
requirement for any analytical  laboratory.  These manuals
and handbooks supply the basic  information that a trained lab
technician would need to successfully perform nearly all
analytical procedures that may  be required in connection with
monitoring programs.

     Analytical Quality Control

     The potential errors encountered during analysis of
wastewater samples, although not as great as the errors
associated with poor sampling techniques, can nevertheless
have a great impact on the acceptability of monitoring
information.  Without the aid of independent checks and gen-
eral quality control, the lab technician can report erroneous
results without being aware that a problem exists.

     Analytical quality control assistance is available in
several forms from EPA.  A document entitled "Handbook for
Analytical Quality Control in Water and Wastewater Laborato-
ries," has been published by the EPA Technology Transfer
Program.  In thishandbook, specific information is provided
that can guide the lab technician or chemist toward sound
and reliable techniques and procedures. • In addition, stan-
dard approaches to data handling and reporting, and informa-
tion on calibrating equipment are included.

     The EPA "Manual of Methods for Chemical Analysis of
Water and Wastes" also includes information pertinent to
laboratory quality control.  Each of the ten EPA regional
offices has an office of Analytical Quality Control headed
by a Regional Analytical Quality Control Coordinator.
                            D-19

-------
Included in the EPA Methods Manual are a listing of the ten
Quality Control Coordinators,  accompanied by appropriate
addresses and telephone numbers.  Through the Quality Control
Coordinators, any interested party can obtain preanalyzed
samples that can be used to test the accuracy of analytical
techniques.  Periodic analysis of known samples can provide
the lab technician with an independent  check of his
accuracy, providing the opportunity to correct any improper
procedures.

     Equipment

     A document entitled "Estimating Laboratory Needs for
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facilities" published by the
Operation and Maintenance Program of the EPA Office of Water
Program Operations, provides specific information on the min-
imum requirements for laboratory facilities at various sized
wastewater treatment plants.  This publication also includes
recommendations on how a laboratory operation may be altered
to handle the analysis of pollutants contributed by non-
residential sources.

     Laboratory equipment required for a municipal wastewater
treatment plant is generally standard, with variations
occurring only in degree, as the size of the plant varies.
If, however, a publicly owned system receives wastewater from
a particular industry, specialized analytical equipment may
be required.  The range of applicability of several special
types of equipment are discussed in the following paragraphs.

     Atomic Adsorption

     Atomic adsorption spectrophotometry provides a rapid  and
easily  performed technique  for  the analysis of metals in
wastewater.  Nearly  all of  the  more than thirty elements that
can be  analyzed  by  atomic  adsorption, can be analyzed by
standard wet chemical techniques.  However, the wet chemical
methods can be tedious and time consuming, requiring detailed
sample  pretreatment  procedures. Atomic adsorption methods
provide for metal  analyses  with minimum sample preparation
and,  in many  instances, analyses can  be completed to the
parts per  billion  level,.which  is not attainable with standard
wet chemical techniques.

      In some respects atomic  adsorption does have limitations.
 In all  cases,  atomic adsorption provides only the total con-
centration of the  element.  Unless  specialized pretreatment
 is utilized,  no  breakdown of  oxidation state or ionic species
can be  determined.   However,  for  the  analysis of metals at
very low concentrations,  atomic adsorption  is unsurpassed  in


                             D-20

-------
speed and accuracy.   In situations where a large number of
metal analyses may be necessary, such as those POTW's that
receive wastewaters from metal processing or finishing indus-
tries, atomic adsorption capabilities may be required.  But
in all cases, the relatively high cost of atomic adsorption
equipment should be weighed against the need for high volume
trace metal analysis.

      Specific Ion Electrodes

     Specific ion electrodes are sensing probes that can
detect the concentration of chemical species when immersed
in a solution containing the substance to be measured.  As
long as the probe is completely submerged, a concentration
can be measured regardless of the volume of sample present.
In contrast to atomic adsorption, specific ion electrodes,
as the naine implies, detect only certain ionic species as
they exist in solution.  As a consequence, specific ion
electrode readings are greatly dependent on the environmental
conditions within the sample, such as pH and oxidation-r
reduction potential.

     More than two dozen ionic species can be analyzed using
specific ion electrodes.  Analyses are rapid, but require
some pretreatment to remove interferences prior to simple
immersion of the probe in the sample and meter readout.  The
drawbacks to this type of specialized equipment include
possible fouling of the probe membrane, long readout equili-
brium periods and the ability to detect only specific ionic
species.  However,  progress is continually being made in ion
sensing electrode technology.   Excellent use has been made of
the commercially available dissolved oxygen probes for
measuring oxygen demand, and an ammonia sensing electrode
has been successfully used for monitoring nitrification in
an activated sludge treatment plant.  Because of the potential
ease and speed of analysis that can be realized with specific
ion electrodes, consideration should be given to the possible
use of these methods for selected ionic species.
     Automatic Analyzers

     A few manufacturers currently market automated wet chem-
ical analyzers that are typically called automatic analyzers.
These devices automatically draw a small sample, add pretreat-
ment chemicals, filter the sample if necessary, add chemicals
to develop a color with an intensity proportional to the con-
centration, and finally automatically read and record the con-
                            D-21

-------
centration proportional to the developed color.  Other more
sophisticated automatic analyzers may use infrared or ultraviolet
spectrophotometrie detection, and some use fluorometers or
flame photometers.  In effect, the typical automatic analyzer
eliminates the steps that a technician would have to perform in
carrying out typical wet chemical analysis.

     Although an automatic analyzer can greatly reduce the time
required to perform a particular analysis, use of these
instruments is only economical when the analysis is required
on a mass production basis.  Furthermore, automatic analysis
instruments are relatively complex devices that can require a
substantial maintenance effort.  As indicated for the other
specialized equipment described in this section, automatic
analyzers should only be used when the presence of a specific
pollutant contributed by a particular industrial source is
so important that frequent analyses are required.

     Gas Chromatography

     Gas chromatography refers to several variations of a
technique in which a wastewater sample is vaporized, and the
organic fraction is then analyzed.  Gas chromatography is by
far the most efficient way of analyzing for trace organics
in wastewater, especially pesticides.  However, most gas
chromatographs are relatively expensive and require highly
skilled operators.  As a result, this type of equipment finds
only limited application in POTW analytical laboratories.

     IR-UV Spectrophotometry

     Infrared  (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometers,
like gas chromatographs are used to analyze for organic mat-
erials in wastewater.  UV Spectrophotometry has been used
recently for detecting oil and grease in wastewater samples.
However, these two types of specialized equipment generally
have only limited and specialized uses because of cost and
the requirement for skilled operators.

     Personnel and Degree of Expertise

     Laboratory manpower requirements are outlined in the
Operation and Maintenance Program document "Estimating
Laboratory Needs for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facili-
ties."  Some quantitative information is provided for deter-
mining how laboratory manpower should be altered to handle
non-residential contributions.  Although a thorough general
analysis is provided in the publication, it should be noted
that each system presents a unique situation.   Nevertheless,
it can be stated in general terms, that any monitoring pro-
gram will require an added degree of laboratory support.
For very small systems with few industrial contributors, the


                           D-22

-------
additional analytical work can probably be handled by the
technician performing regular sanitary chemistry.  Larger
systems may require the addition of personnel to handle the
greater load created by the industrial monitoring program.

     If analyses in connection with the monitoring program
require the use of any of the specialized analytical equip-
ment outlined above, technicians or chemists with more than the
usual level of expertise may be required.  Although the
utilization of spe'cific ion electrodes is relatively simple,
proper use of atomic adsorption, automatic analyzers, gas chroma-
tographs or IR-UV spectrophotometers does require a higher
degree of expertise. Automatic analyzers and atomic adsorption
require good technique, and special attention to equipment
maintenance.  In order to properly utilize either gas chro-
matography or IR-UV spectrophotometry, special technical
expertise beyond the 4-year college level may be required.

     Special Analytical Considerations

     Underlying the compliance and enforcement uses of anal-
ytical data is the need to know the true composition of
wastewater contributions so that the presence of harmful
materials can be detected.  In general, EPA recommends that
wastewater samples be stabilized in a manner that will sol-
utilize otherwise insoluble, or suspended materials.  This
is an  especially important factor  in the case of metals which
are  generally insoluble at high pH levels.  Metal concentrations
are  of particular interest to plant operators since  relatively
small  quantities of these materials can  cause operating prob-
lems.  However, the metallic pollutant generally must  be  in
solution  before it can cause an upset of biological  treatment
processes.  As a result, the practice of acidifying  samples
and  obtaining total, rather than dissolved metal concentrations
can  give  misleading results for samples  with high pH levels.
Metallic  pollutants at high pH values would tend to  be in the
form of suspended solids,  and would most likely  be  substantially
removed prior to reaching  biological treatment  facilities.
Consequently, the impact of a wastewater stream can  greatly
depend on the pH of the wastewater as  it enters  the  treatment
system.

     Another similar example  is the importance  of the  oxida-
tion state of the constituent being measured.   For  example,
hexavalent chromium is generally considered  to  have  a  greater
impact on biological treatment  processes than trivalent
chromium.  The  impact  of hexavalent chromium can be  signifi-
cant,  but the typical  environment  in  a sewer system would tend
to  reduce this material, and  often ensure  that  only trivalent
chromium  reaches the  treatment  plant.   Clearly,  the  analysis


                              D-23

-------
of wastewaters containing materials having various impacts
which depend on the conditions in the sample, must be approached
prudently, considering the state of the pollutant as it enters
the treatment system.

     Correlation of Analytical Techniques

     In determining compatible pollutant loadings, it is
necessary to analyze industrial wastewater contributions for
the typical oxygen demand parameters.  BOD .historically has
been used to measure oxygen demand, but this test is time
consuming and can be inaccurate.  COD has been used in place
of BOD, but it too can be tedious, and it also takes a signi-
ficant amount of time to complete.  In recent years, catalytic
oxidation approaches have been developed that yield measures
of oxidizable substances that can be correlated to the more
standard BOD or COD tests.  These analyses, which are termed
total organic carbon  (TOC) and total oxygen demand  (TOD), are
rapid and reproducible.

     A large body of data has been developed showing that the
more rapid TOC and TOD methods can be correlated to BOD, and
therefore can act as a more efficient measurement tool for an
operating facility.  Other similar correlations can be devel-
oped that can increase the efficiency of laboratory operations.
For example, oil  and  grease  is usually measured by  an
extraction  gravimetric technique.  This measurement can be
simplified  or  accelerated  by utilizing a UV  spectrophotometer
to detect the  levels  of organics if this type of device is
available.   Substitutions  of methods that  are either faster,
more accurate,  or encompass  a broader range  of parameters
should be considered  for unofficial use, when they  can be
correlated  to  standard methods.

     Standard  Reporting  Procedures

     Laboratory data  handling and reporting  require two basic
considerations;  reliable methods for recording both laboratory
and field data,  and criteria for determining the  significance
and acceptability of  the data.   Without a  good system  in which
standard procedures are  used for accurate  recording of anal-
ytical and  field data,  the usefulness of the information
obtained from  monitoring operations  can be greatly  diminished.
Standard forms should be developed for recording  field  infor-
mation,  which  would include  the  conditions at the time of
sampling.   All laboratory  data  should be recorded in bound
notebooks with numbered pages.   This assures a continuity in
time, with  a sequence for  all analytical data.  All forms
should be  completed in duplicate, with each  copy  being  stored
separately  as  a precaution against accidental loss  of  data.
                              D-24

-------
     Of equal importance to proper recording methods is the
significance and acceptability of data collected.  One must
be certain that the sample being analyzed is representative,
and has. not been influenced by infrequent or rare laboratory
or plant occurrences.   Numerous statistical techniques are
available that can provide a measure of the appropriate con-
fidence that should be assigned to the data.  These statis-
tical techniques are adequately covered in several of the
handbooks cited above.  However, caution should be exercised
when using statistical methods.  Generally, statistics offer
a means by which variations in a set of data can be analyzed,
assuming that all of the data used in the analysis is equally
valid.  Although statistics can be a powerful tool, it is
always preferable to evaluate the significance of data vari-
ation on the basis of first-hand knowledge of the situation
during sampling and analysis.  Many times, if unusual circum-
stances are apparent,  the data can be eliminated from consid-
eration by inspection, and the problem can be rectified with-
out the use of more sophisticated statistical analysis.

     Contracting for Analytical Services

     Many of the considerations discussed above  concerning
laboratory aspects of a monitoring program are based on the
assumption that a POTW either has an existing laboratory which
will be expanded to handle industrial wastewater, or has the
resources to develop  such facilities.  This may  be  true for
the larger systems, but the more numerous small  systems may
not have the resources or capability to complete the necessary
analyses required for proper monitoring of  industrial wastes.
In such systems, analytical work must frequently be performed
by commercial laboratories.  When choosing  a laboratory several
criteria should be considered to assure that proper services
are being provided.

     At the present time only a few states  have  developed a
certification system  for commercial laboratories.   EPA is
currently in the process of developing a guidance document
for lab certification programs.  As a result, for the short
term,POTW1 s wishing to engage qualifieid laboratory  services
will be required to evaluate laboratory performance independ-
ently.  For the long  term, use may be made  of the upcoming
guidance to be supplied by EPA.

     Several techniques can be  used to compare the  quality  of
analytical services provided by commercial  labs:

      1,  Use of samples spiked  with known  amounts of
         pollutants of  interest.  Chemicals used in
         the spiked samples  can be obtained from the

                              D-25

-------
    appropriate EPA Regional Quality Control
    Coordinator.  Use of spiked samples  is a
    desirable method for testing laboratory per-
    formance when analyzing complex wastewater
    mixtures.

2.  Parallel analysis of identical samples at two
    or more commercial labs.  This procedure can
    provide information on the relative  performance
    of the laboratories in question.

3.  Adherence to standard procedures is  essential,
    and as a result should be used as a  primary
    criteria for evaluating lab performance.

4.  Competitive costs are also important,  providing
    that an acceptable quality of analytical services
    is provided.

                   OWNED TREATMENT WORKS

Introduction

     Interference with the operation of a POTW system can be
caused by a wide variety of chemical, biological and physi-
cal phenomena.  In a broad sense, interference consists not
only of materials which inhibit biological sewage treatment
processes, but also substances which cause problems in sew-
age collection systems, sludge disposal or utilization methods,
water reuse, land application of wastewater or other opera-
tions.  Collection system problems include fire and explo-
sion hazards, corrosion and solid or viscous wastes which
cause plugging of sewers, and a discussion of these problems
is included herein.  Interference with sludge disposal or
utilization and reuse of wastewaters consists primarily of
incompatible pollutants which are concentrated in sludge or
by reuse techniques.

     This section of the report primarily presents technical
data on the various substances which inhibit biological treat-
ment processes, including the problems caused by the excessive
discharge of pollutants to a treatment facility.  Consideration
was given to interference with physical-chemical sewage treat-
ment systems, employing activated carbon adsorption fallowing
primary treatment such as chemical coagulation and filtration.
Although many facilities of this type are currently being
designed and constructed, operating data from full scale
physical-chemical plants is extremely limited at this time.
In addition, the characteristics of the activated carbon
adsorption process are such that there are few substances
which cause interference.  Consequently, although it is
recognized that physical-chemical treatment facilities will
become more prevalent in the future, a detailed discussion
of interference with such processes has not been included in
these guidelines.

Materials Which Inhibit Biological Treatment Processes

     In an effort to describe inhibitory effects, treatment
processes and interfering substances have been grouped into
broad categories.  Three basic categories of treatment
processes have been delineated, including aerobic processes,
anaerobic processes, and nitrification.  The aerobic pro-
cesses have been further subdivided into activated sludge
and trickling filter operations, while anaerobic processes
consist essentially of sludge digestion.  Although many
currently operating biological treatment plants utilize the


                            E-l

-------
trickling filter process, relatively little data is available
on pollutant interferences.  Consequently, the information
on aerobic biological treatment presented is predominantly
concerned with the activated sludge process.  Since both
activated sludge and trickling filtration are aerobic pro-
cesses, the lack of information on trickling filtration may
be compensated for by cautiously drawing parallels with
activated sludge data.

     The general categories established for interfering sub-
stances are inorganics and organics, with acidity, alkal-
inity, pH, ammonia, transition metals, metals, sulfate and
sulfide comprising the major components of the inorganic
category.  Organic substances discussed include alcohols,
amines, chlorinated hydrocarbons, pesticides and herbicides,
phenol, surfactants and miscellaneous organic chemicals.

     Most analytical methods used for determing the concentra-
tions of the pollutants covered in this section yield a total
result, including the contribution of both the dissolved and
the precipitated substances in the original sample.  In most
cases, a precipitated pollutant has relatively little in-
hibitory impact as compared to its soluble counterpart.  This
results from the fact that most settleable solids are removed
in primary treatment, and therefore never reach the potentially
inhibited biological unit process.  Because the insoluble
fraction of a pollutant parameter will have relatively little
or no effect on biological treatment processes, most investi-
gators have conducted their tests using only dissolved pollu-
tants.  As a consequence, unless otherwise noted, the concen-
tration of pollutants reported in this section are only for
dissolved species, not the more common total value.

     Whether a substance is inhibitory depends on a number
of factors, including its concentration and the presence of
other chemicals which have synergistic or antagonistic
effects.  Some substances, such as mercury, present in waste-
water at a very low concentration, can disrupt one or more
functions of a biological treatment system.  Other substances,
such, as chloride ion, are inhibitory only at relatively high
concentrations.  Some of the special phenomena that may alter
the inhibitory nature of a substance are outlined below as a
prelude to the detailed discussion of specific pollutants.

     Synergism

     Synergism can be generally characterized as an increase
in  the inhibitory  effect of one substance by the presence of


                            E-2

-------
another.   Synergism,  as well as its opposite, antagonism,
is found to be most prevalent when considering combinations
of transition metals or heavy metals.   The inhibitory effects
of these metallic constituents are also enhanced by acidity.

     The synergistic effects of metals with acidity is under-
standable in terms of the chemistry of these metals.  The
transition and heavy metals tend to be insoluble by hydrolysis
in the pH range of sewage influent.  They therefore tend to
precipitate or adsorb on solids, and interact with polyelectro-
lytes or various chemical species containing anionic functional
groups.  Acidity suppresses hydrolysis, and the hydrogen ion
competes with the metal ion for adsorption sites on solids or
anionic functional groups in solution.

     Another type of synergism is encountered with cyanide or
other complexing substances which are easily biodegradable.
In these cases, it is possible for the microorganism to
ingest excessive levels of complexed metal ion and then to
destroy by assimilation the complexing substance which is
shielding the microorganism from the metal ion.  The result
is the release of an excessive level of the metal within the
organism, upsetting its biological life processes.

     Antagonism

     Antagonism is the opposite of synergism in that it is
characterized as a decrease in the inhibitory effect of one
substance by the presence of another.  The most notable
antagonistic effects occur with the combination of metallic
and anionic pollutants.  For example, several chelating
agents, such as EDTA (Disodium salt of ethylenediamine tetra-
acetic acid) and HEDTA  (disodium salt of hydroxy-
ethylenediamene triacetic acid) have exhibited antagonistic
properties with metals.  These chelating agents are used
in culturing microorganisms to regulate the level of metals
needed to grow bacterial cultures.  Bacteria thrive in culture
solutions containing concentrations of these metals well into
the inhibitory range, when chelating agents are also present.

     Some ambiguity as to the inhibitory effects of metals on
sludge digestion has been found in the literature.  Part of
the ambiguity can be explained by the antagonistic effect of
the sulfide normally present in a digester.  Sulfide ion
precip.^tate.s metals, removing them from solution and conse-
quently eliminating their inhibitory effect.   In fact, this re-
duction in  inhibitory effects by the addition of sulfide has
been used effectively in restoring upset digesters  to opera-
tion  (E-35).   Besides sulfide,  other  ions  such  as hydroxide

                             E-O

-------
(i.e., high pH)  chromate,  ferro-cyanide,  phosphate,  carbonate,
and arsenate will tend to precipitate with metals, thereby
reducing the inhibitory effect.

     Acclimation

     In addition to chemical factors, there are significant
biological factors which must be considered to understand
the inhibitory effect of pollutants.  In  the activated sludge
process, a healthy biomass contains a broad distribution of
microorganisms,  including many species of bacteria and protozoa,
These organisms  compete for the available food, oxygen and
nutrients, and grow and reproduce according to the suit-
ability of the aquatic environment to their existence.  In
the absence of sufficient food,  reproduction slows and the
microorganisms devour each other.  Whenever the environment
changes due to the introduction of, or omission of a given
pollutant, the opportunities for,reproduction and growth of
different species change,  so that the relative populations
of different species are altered with conditions.

     Therefore,  the previous history of a particular activated
sludge biomass,  including its distribution of microorganism
populations, affects how it will respond  when a new pollutant
enters its environment.  When a new pollutant is introduced,
those species which cannot tolerate this  substance fail'to
reproduce and grow,and tend to die off, while more tolerant
species consume the food supply and grow  and reproduce.

    When a biomass becomes accustomed to  the presence of a
normally inhibitory concentration of a substance, it can be
characterized as acclimated to that pollutant.  Sludge
digestion and nitrification do not have the same flexibility
of adaptation to changing environmental conditions as do
other biological processes.  Both nitrification and sludge
digestion are biological processes that rely on particular
strains of bacteria.  In the case of sludge digestion, the
process proceeds in two steps,using two specific bacterial
strains to achieve digestion.  Nitrification is also limited
to particular bacterial types.  As a consequence, when
adverse conditions are encountered in these processes, there
is no possibility of another organism taking over for the
affected strain of bacteria.  Consequently, neither nitri-
fication nor sludge digestion are readily acclimated to a
new pollutant and may be easily upset when new conditions are
encountered.

-------
     Significance of Data on the Inhibitory Effects
     of Pollutants	

     As a result of the chemical and biological factors which
affect the inhibitory impact of a pollutant, a given con-
centration of that pollutant may be inhibitory to a biological
process under a given set of conditions and non-inhibitory
under another set of conditions:  Therefore, it is not
surprising that a significant amount of data in the litera-
ture ^ are apparently contradictory/ in that certain concen-
trations have been reported as inhibitory, while higher
concentrations are reported to be harmless.  In most cases,
these inversions of effects with concentration are not due
to errors-of observation, but rather to different conditions
surrounding the biological processes, such as those described.

     The following paragraphs summarize the current available
data on the inhibitory effects of specific substances, as
well$as the chemistry and occurence of the pollutant.  Where
applicable, special effects of each pollutant are described.
Important industrial sources of many of the pollutants dis-
cussed in this section are summarized in Appendix 8 of these
guidelines.   Additionally, Appendix 5 contains tables summarizing
the data on the effects of inorganic, substances.  Appendix 5
also contains graphical presentations of the data for inorganics.


     Inorganic Substances

     Wastewater entering a POTW may contain any combination
of thousands of inorganic compounds present as major or
minor constituents.  Fortunately, since most inorganic sub-
stances dissolved in wastewater are present in ionic form,
it is possible to reduce the number of parameters of
interest to a smaller list of cations and anions which
comprise these dissolved substances.  In addition, a few non-
ionic substances must also be considered.

     The cations of interest consist of the ammonium ion and
various metal ions.  A few metal ions; i.e., sodium, calcium,
and magnesium, are prevalent in wastewaters, but are not
inhibitory except at very high concentrations (about 1000
mg/1, order of magnitude).  Most metal cations, on the other
hand, are beneficial or non-inhibitory at very low concen-
trations.  However, at somewhat higher concentrations (a few
mg/1, order of magnitude)  they become inhibitory to biological
processes.
                            E-5

-------
     A number of metals of interest are  amphoteric;  that is,
they may exist in solution as a cation or anion.   For example,
chromium may form chromic or chromous cations or  the chro-
mate or dichromate anion.  Arsenic can likewise exist as
arsenic or arsenous cations or arsenate  or arsenite anions.

     Many anions (chloride or bicarbonate, for example) are
relatively compatible with biological treatment processes.
Others, such as cyanide, borate, and chlorate can pose diffi-
culties to the biological processes.  A  few neutral substances
are important, especially ammonia and elemental chlorine.

     The significant inorganic constituents which have been
identified as having inhibitory effects  are discussed below,
in alphabetical order.  A summary of the major inhibitory
effects for each inorganic pollutant is  given in Table E-l.

     Acidity, Alkalinity and pH

     The pH of a wastewater represents the relative concen-
tration of hydrogen ions in the fluid.  Although pH is fre-
quently used to describe the acidity or  alkalinity of a
sample, there are fundamental differences between these con-
cepts'.  pH is reported on a scale of 0 to 14, with each pH
unit representing a factor of 10 in hydrogen ion concentra-
tion.  A pH of 7 is considered neutral,  while a solution
with a pH of less than 7 is acidic, and  above 7 is  alkaline.

     A distinction should be made between acidity and an acidic
solution, and similarly between alkalinity and an alkaline solu-
tion.  As discussed above, a pH of less  than 7 indicates an acidi
solution.  On the other hand, the acidity of the solution
is a measure of its capacity to maintain its pH during the
addition of an alkaline solution.  For example, if an acidic
solution has a pH of 6 and the addition of one drop of an
alkali raises its pH to 9, it has less acidity than an
equal volume of another pH 6 solution that needs ten drops
of the same alkali to increase its pH to 9.

     Most natural unpolluted waters have a pH value near
neutral  (pH 6 to 8) .  Excess carbonic acid gas (carbon
dioxide) can result in lower  (more acidic) pH values, while
soluble carbonates, borates or silicates may produce higher
 (more alkaline) pH values.

     Most bacteria favor an environment of pH 6 to 8.  Rare
microorganism species may tolerate or even thrive in wastes
of extremely low or extremely high pH, but these are not

significant in biological treatment systems.  As a result, pH
values outside this range can cause severe upsets in biological
treatment processes.  This is particularly true of acidic waste-
waters with low pH values in relation to nitrification or anaerobic
sludge digestion.

      Of  equal  importance  to  the absolute pH level in waste-
water is a  sudden  change  in  pH.  Sudden swings of pH are
always disruptive  to an otherwise  stabilized system.   The
effect of extreme  fluctuations in  pH in a waste  stream can
be overcome by collecting, storing, and mixing the variable
waste mixture  in a storage vessel  or pond.  The  effluent from
this pond will show less  variability and consequently  will
respond  to  biological treatment more favorably.

      Discharges  of wastes from commercial manufacturing or
processing  industries may typically result  in wastes ranging
in pH from  about 3 to 11.  Wastes  outside this range are
rare and represent corrosive and dangerous  levels.

      Acidic contributions may be received from many industrial
processes including metal cleaning, plating or treatment plants,
manufacture of drugs and  explosives, processing  of photographic
films, etc.

      Alkaline  contributions  may be received from laundries,
detergent manufacture, bottle cleaners  (dairies,  for example),
textile  processing and cement manufacturing.


      Summary of  Inhibitory Properties :

      1.   The activated sludge process can treat waste  solu-
tions ranging  from about  pH  3 to 11, provided that the pH
 level has been stabilized (E-51).

      2.   Another source  states that inhibitory effects gre
 related to  temperature and were noted above pH 10 at 20 c
 and above pH 9 at  10 C  (E-21).

      3.   It has  been reported that at pH  4  the activated
 sludge process is  43% effective  (E-51).

      4.   The sludge digestion process  is  extremely  sensitive
 to pH, and deviations of pH outside  the range  6.5 to  7.5
 generally cause  upset of sludge  digesters.

      Synergistic  and Antagonistic Effects:

      While high acidity  (low pH)  is  generally  inhibitory
 to biological treatment systems,  the presence  of most  metal
 ions with excess acidity results in much  more  severe  inhibi-
 tory effects.   The reason for this phenomenon  is that at
                             E-8

-------
near-neutral pH values, most transition metal ions tend
to precipitate out as insoluble floes.   These ions also
tend to form hydroxo-complexes at neutral or alkaline pH
values, and these complexes mask the inhibitory properties
of the metal ions.  As the pH is reduced (acidity increased),
the hydroxo-complexes are decomposed, and insoluble metal
hydrous oxide floes redissolve.  The result is that the
full effect of the metal ion concentration is felt by the
microorganism.  Thus, the presence of acidity which is in
itself inhibitory, causes the full release of metal ions
(copper, zinc, iron, lead, etc.) which are also inhibitory,
and a synergistic result occurs.

     Conversely, alkalinity causes the neutralization of
acidity, increases the pH, and tends to precipitate metals
out of solution.  Thus, alkalinity is antagonistic or decreases
the effect of metals.  At high pH levels, where hydroxyl ion
is inhibitory, acidity is antagonistic to excess alkalinity.
Therefore, substances which tend to drive the pH value of
the waste toward the neutral point, tend to help the activated
sludge process to operate satisfactorily.

     Ammonia

     Ammonia (NH_) is a common chemical substance, which is
a gas at room temperature.  It is extremely soluble in water
and its water solution is used as a household cleaning agent.
Ammonia forms a series of salts called ammonium salts.
Inasmuch as ammonia and ammonium ion occur together in
solution and are transformed from one form to another by
shifts in the solution pH, the two substances are usually
treated as a single substance in most of the wastewater
literature.

     Ammonia is an important substance in wastewaters and
serves as a nutrient material to supply nitrogen needed for
microorganism growth.  All ammonium salts encountered are
completely soluble in wastewater.

     Ammonia occurs naturally in most wastewaters as a
result of decomposition of nitrogen containing compounds
in sanitary wastes.  In addition, ammonia is used extensively
in chemical manufacture, water softening, agricultural
fertilizers, refrigeration, metal cleaning and other diverse
applications.
                            E-9

-------
     Summary of Inhibitory Properties2

     1.  At low concentration levels, ammonia serves as an
important nutrient in a healthy biological oxidation system.

     2.  No adverse effects on oxygen consumption are noted
at concentrations of up to 100 mg/1 of ammonia.

     3.  At excessively high levels  (about 480 mg/1) ammonia
exhibits inhibitory effects on the activated sludge process
(E-29) .

     4.  At a concentration of 1500 to 3000 mg/1 ammonia is
inhibitory to anaerobic digestion  (E-17, E-20).

     Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metals

     The common alkali metals, sodium and potassium, and alkaline
earths, calcium and magnesium, are widely distributed in nature
and are significant components as salts in most water supplies.
Consequently, these metals are almost universally present in
all wastewater flows, usually as chloride, sulfate or bi-
carbonate salts.

     These metal ions are well tolerated by activated sludge
operations, and only at relatively high concentration levels
have inhibitory effects been noted.  For example, inhibitory
effects on the activated sludge process were noted with slug
dose concentrations of sodium chloride  (common table salt)
of 30,000 to  50,000 mg/1  (E*-5, Er-22, E^49) f but  these inhibi-
tions  may be  primarily caused by  the accompanying high  chloride
levels (E-91).  Upsets have been  reported  in which  seafood
wastewater  contributions  containing high chloride levels
were  indicated  as  the cause of the upset.  Interference
with  a trickling filter was noted at 20,000 mg/1 sodium
chloride  (E-22).   At more moderate concentrations of salt,
no interference with these processes were  noted.

      However, the  anaerobic sludge digestion and nitrifica-
tion  processes  are more sensitive to these cations, and it
appears that  important effects are noted when the relative
concentrations  and absolute concentrations of these metal
cations deviate from certain beneficial values.  Thus,  it
has been reported  that calcium levels of 100 to  200 mg/1 are
stimulatory to  anaerobic digestion; 2500 to 4500 mg/1 are
moderately  inhibitory to  the process; and  a concentration
level of 8000 mg/1 is strongly inhibitory  (E-26, E-37,  E-120).
                            E-10

-------
Similar relations are noted for magnesium, sodium and potas-
sium.  Also/ it has been reported that various combinations
of alkali and alkaline earth ions and the ammonium ion show
either synergistic or antagonistic effects in the operation
of the anaerobic sludge digestion process.  For nitrification
processes a magnesium concentration of 12.5 to 50 mg/1 was
found to be stimulatory, whereas 50-100 mg/1 inhibited the
process (E-100).

     Arsenic

     Arsenic is a metallic element which forms cationic
salts of the arsenic and arsenous forms and anion salts of
the arsenate and arsenite forms.  It is well known for the
poisonous properties of its compounds.  Arsenic is found at
very low concentration levels in most natural waters and is
likewise a trace constituent in most foods.

     Arsenic can enter sewage treatment systems from a number
of commercial operations.  A major use of arsenic compounds
is agricultural pesticides, where it is used in liquid sprays
and dusting powders.  Other uses associated with its toxic
nature are wood preservatives and medicines.  Arsenic com-
pounds also find commercial use in artists' pigments, glass
manufacture, and pyrotechnics.  Probably the most significant
source of arsenic pollution is from agricultural pesticide
use.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  A level of 0.1 mg/1 sodium arsenate  (arsenic concen-
tration 0.04 mg/1) showed no effect on oxygen uptake, while
a level of 1.0 mg/1 of this compound depressed oxygen uptake
about 50% (E-21) .


     2.  A 0.1 mg/1 concentration of arsenic trichloride
(about 0.04 mg/1 arsenic) likewise reduced oxygen uptake
about 50% (E-21).

     3.  A 4 mg/1 concentration of sodium arsenate  (about
1.6 mg/1 arsenic) resulted in a significant reduction in
sludge digestion efficiency (E-5).

     Borate (and other boron species)

     Boron is a light metal.  It forms a series of anionic
salts, including borate, metaborate and tetraborate.  Boron
                            E-ll

-------
salts are found widely distributed in natural waters and
foods, and therefore are natural constituents of sewage.
In addition, boron compounds are constituents of household
detergents and medications which also contribute to boron in
domestic wastewaters.  Boron compounds find application in
the manufacture of glass and ceramics, fireproofing, high
energy rocket fuels and in the operation of nuclear reactors.
Contributions of boron from these sources are probably small.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Boron concentrations of 0.005 to 0.05 mg/1 are
reported to have had no effect on microorganism growth (E-29) .

     2.  Levels of borate from 0.05 to 100 mg/1 have been
reported to interfere with the activated sludge process in
various ways, such as interference with sludge settling and
COD removal (E-5, E-9, E-29, E-44).

     3.  Boron shock loads of 2 mg/1 have been reported to
have affected anaerobic digestion (E-128).

     Cadmium

     Cadmium is a transition metal which forms divalent, salts.
Cadmium salts are somewhat toxic, and are found in domestic
water and wastewater sources only at very low levels.  Con-
tributions to POTW's come from industrial or commercial sources,
with the principal contributions of cadmium coming from metal
plating processes.  Cadmium also finds significant use in
pigment manufacture, photographic applications, dyeing and
calico printing.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Cadmium has no adverse effects on the activated
sludge process up to a concentration level of about 1 mg/1
 (E-21).

     2.  In the range of 10 to 100 mg/1, cadmium shows var-
ious deleterious effects, such as decrease in BOD removal
efficiency and reduction in oxygen uptake (E-21, E-29) .

     3.  An investigator reports that 0.02 mg/1 should be
considered a threshold concentration for cadmium in digesters
(E-104).
                           E-12

-------
     Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects:

     Synergistic effects have been reported on cadmium
and zinc,  as well as cadmium and manganese.  Other heavy
metals may also show Synergistic effects with cadmium.
There is no doubt that acidity would show a synergistic effect
with cadmium.

     Sulfide and high pH (8 and above)  are strongly antagon-
istic with cadmium, since they precipitate the insoluble
sulfide and hydroxide compounds.

     Chromium

     Chromium is a transition metal which forms two import-
ant series of salts, the trivalent chromic cation and the
hexavalent chromate anion.   Chromium is present as a trace
constituent in domestic sewage, but the levels encountered
are not significant relative to POTW operation.

     Chromium is contributed to wastewater from numerous
industrial and other commercial operations.  Especially sig-
nificant sources are the electroplating and electrofinishing
industries.  Another significant source is the use of soluble
chromates as corrosion inhibitors in cooling towers and in-
soluble chromates in corrosion resistant coatings.  Other
sources of commercial discharge of chromium salts include
leather tanning, photographic processing, and textile dyeing.
Unless stated otherwise, the inhibitory properties outlined
below are for hexavalent chromium.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Effect of Chromium on the Activated Sludge Process:

         a.  At a concentration level of 0.005 to 0.05 mg/1,
chromium has a stimulatory effect on microorganism growth
(E-5) .

         b.  Interference with biological processes is re-
ported at the 1 mg/1 concentration level  (E-5).

         c.  Another investigator identifies 10 mg/1 as the
threshold level for deleterious effects  (E-29, E-78).

         d.  In the concentration range of 1 to 50 mg/1, the
published literature is quite confusing and contradictory,
ranging from serious interference to insignificant effects
(E-29, E-118).


                            E-13

-------
         e.  In the range of  50  to 500 mg/1,  the published results
describe various deleterious effects.   These include syner-
gistic effects of chromium with acidity, iron and copper
(E-5, E-29, E-21, E-118).

         f.  Slug doses up to 500 mg/1 of chromium have been
reported to result in relatively minor disturbances to the
activated sludge process (E-29, E-12,  E-36).

         g.  Up to 50 mg/1 of trivalent chromium was reported
to have an adverse effect on activated sludge processes (E-88) .

     2.  Sludge Digestion

         a.  Chromium levels of up to  500 mg/1 in the plant
influent do not affect digestion of the resultant sludge.
This result may be due to precipitation of the insoluble
chromic hydrous oxide (E-118).

         b.  The addition of up to 50  mg/1 of chromium directly
to a sludge digester had a serious effect on digestion (E-78),
and the addition of 500 mg/1 to the digester stopped the
process completely (E-118).

         c.  The effect of trivalent chromium on digestor
operation has been reported to be dependent on the digestion
period. 500 mg/1 trivalent chromium is tolerated in digestors
with 20 day digestion periods,  100 mg/1 with 17 days of
digestion, and 50 mg/1 with 14 days (E-88).

     3.  Nitrification

         a.  It has been reported that 0.25 mg/1 of chromium
will inhibit nitrification to some extent (E-119).

         b.  From 2 to 5 mg/1 of chromium completely inhib-
its the nitrification process (E-29, E-117f E-13).

     4.  Sludge Settling

         a.  Concentrations ranging from 7 to 500  mg/1 of
chromium interferes with sludge settling (E-29).


     Copper

     Copper is a transition metal which  forms salts and
other compounds in two valence  forms.  Monovalent  copper,
copper (I), forms a series  of chemical salts called "cuprous",

while divalent copper, copper (II),forms a series of "cupric"
compounds.  The cuprous  compounds are all relatively insolu-
ble and uncommon,  and are not significant in water pollution
or water treatment chemistry.  Therefore, in this document,
attention has been focused on cupric compounds only, and
references to "copper" below signify the cupric form only.

     The majority of common copper compounds are insoluble,
and therefore do not pose a problem to sewage systems in that
form.  However, copper nitrate, sulfate, chloride salts, and
a number of copper complexes are soluble and these may pose
problems when discharged to sewage treatment plants.

     Copper compounds occur naturally in surface and ground
waters, usually at relatively low concentration levels, and
are natural constituents of domestic drinking water supplies.
Copper also enters domestic sewage flows as a result of rou-
tine household activities, such as washing and preparing of
foods, cleaning of copper utensils, and use of garbage dis-
posal units to macerate waste foods.  In*addition, copper
salts discharge to sanitary sewers as a result of corrosion
of copper and brass plumbing fixtures and pipes.  Also, cor-
rosion of copper roofing and surface run-off leads to addi-
tional discharge of copper to combined sewage systems.

     Finally, copper compounds are discharged from a number
of industrial operations such as metal cleaning and electro-
plating operations.  Engraving, jewelry,  electrical manu-
facturing, chemical industrial processes, and algicide and
insecticide uses all add copper to industrial wastewaters.

     Copper is an essential nutritional food element for man
and lower organisms, and is no doubt essential to the proper
operation of biological waste treatment systems at some un-
determined trace level.  At extremely high concentration
levels  (about 1000 mg/1 and above) essentially all forms of
living species are destroyed and essentially sterile water
results  (E-121).

     The sewage plant operator is concerned with intermediate
concentration levels, at which copper-bearing wastewater may
be processed through the system without causing significant
plant upset.  Above this safe copper concentration, he may be
interested in the various inhibitory effects which may
result.   It is expected that the various biological  treatment
systems  may respond differently to the  same  level of copper
in wastewater.
                            E-15

-------
     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Synergism of copper with the following substances
has been identified:  cyanide, acidity (low pH)  and other
heavy metals.

     2.  Antagonism of copper with the following substances
has been identified:  sulfide, high pH, and certain chelat-
ing agents such as EDTA (E-100).

     3.  Effect of Copper and Copper Complexes on Activated
         Sludge Plants

         a.  One rag/1 of copper has been reported to be the
threshold limit for continuous feed of copper to the activated
sludge process (E-5, E-2, E-109,  E-24, E-78).

         b.  A pilot plant study showed an effect on the
process at 1.2 mg/1, while at 10  mg/1 a small reduction of
plant efficiency of about, 4% or less was reported (E-4,
E-24, E-78, E-118).

         c.  The combination of 3.6 mg/1 of copper with 8.6
mg/1 of cyanide caused a serious  upset of the process (E-16).

         d.  Another reference cites 0.1 mg/1 as the recom-
mended upper limit of copper ion in sewage feed (E-2) .

         e.  For slug doses, it has been reported that doses
above 50 mg/1 for 4 hours show a severe effect (E-21) ; a
64 mg/1 dose for 4 hours showed a slight effect (E-118) ; a
75 mg/1 dose for 4 hours "affected" the system (E-29) ; and
100 to 400 mg/1 showed a severe effect in which plant ef-
ficiency dropped to about 50% for 48 hours as a result of the
slug dose  (E-118, E-2).

         f.  Ten mg/1 of copper in the presence of cyanide
caused a severe effect  (E-29), while 25 mg/1 of copper in
the presence of cyanide caused a very severe effect for
24 hours  (E-118).

         g.  It has been reported that there is an approximate
one-to-one relationship between copper concentration and
effluent COD.  A one mg/1 increase in copper will result in
a one mg/1 increase in effluent COD  (E-60).
                             E-16

-------
         Note that the severity of effects reported for slug
doses of copper does not correspond quite proportionally
with the concentrations of these doses.  Nevertheless, it
may be concluded that slug doses of copper from 50 to 400
mg/1 result in serious upset conditions with the activated
sludge process.

     4.  Effect of Copper on Sludge Digestion

         a.  Data reported on the effect of continuous dos-
ages of from 0.1 to 10 mg/1 of copper in influent wastewater
on sludge digestor operation vary widely.

         b.  Two investigators recommend 1.0 mg/1 as the
maximum concentration of copper in influent wastewater to
avoid digestor operating difficulty (E-5, E-15).

         c.  For direct feed to a combined sludge digestor,
a 5 mg/1 copper dosage is recommended as an upper limit.  For
primary sludge digestion, 10 mg/1 copper is the recommended
upper limit (E-78).

         d.  Various copper concentrations in digesters greater
than 10 mg/1 have been found to be inhibitory  (E-l, E-2,
E-118).

         These data may be summarized by stating that over
the range of copper concentration from 0.1 to 10 mg/1, there
are reports of digestor problems attributed to the presence
of copper, and other reports of digestor tolerance to these
same levels.  These discrepancies are no doubt explicable  in
terms of differences in operating conditions, and antagonistic
or synergistic effects.

     5.  Nitrification - One investigator reports that 0.005
to 0.03 mg/1 of copper is stimulatory to nitrifying bacteria/
concentrations above 0.05 mg/1 copper were found to be
inhibitory (E-100) , and 0.5 mg/1 of copper as copper sulfate
has been reported as inhibitory to nitrification  (E-2).

     Cyanide

     The cyanide ion (CN~) is a pollutant parameter of sig-
nificant interest in POTW influent and effluent, as well as
in rivers, streams and lakes.  Its poisonous character is
universally known, and accounts for the interest in this
pollutant.  The poisonous nature of cyanide is actually
associated more with hydrogen cyanide, which generally is
more prevalent below pH 7, than with the free cyanide
ion.  Therefore, cyanide toxicity is directly  tied

                             E-17

-------
to the pH of the wastewater.   Another interesting aspect of
its poisonous character is that its toxicity is principally
applicable to higher life forms.  Microorganisms present in
sewage treatment plants can adapt to the presence of cyanide,
and metabolize and destroy it even at fairly high concentra-
tion levels.

     An important property of the cyanide ion is that it is
a powerful complexing agent and can bind with transition and
other heavy metal ions to form metal cyanide complexes.
These complexes exhibit neither the properties of the metal
ion nor the cyanide ion, and thus are actually different
chemical substances.

     Cyanide is not a normal constituent of domestic sewage,
and its presence in wastewaters is almost exclusively a
result of manufacturing processes and commercial operations.
Principal sources of cyanide in wastewater are the electro-
plating, coke, petroleum gas, steel, plastics, and chemical
industries.  The electroplating industry is particularly
noteworthy because it combines cyanide wastes with transi-
tion and heavy metal ion wastes.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties :

     1.  Wastewaters containing 0.01 to 0.05 mg/1 of cyanide
have no deleterious effect on an activated sludge plant (E-118)
At levels of from 0.3 to 3 mg/1 of cyanide, some adverse
effects are reported (E-21) .
     2.  Recommended maximum limits of 0.1 to 2 mg/1 of cy-
anide have been reported in the literature (E-5, E-118) .

     3.  5 mg/1 of cyanide in raw wastewater has been found
to interfere with activated sludge processes (E-15) .

     4.  A slug dose of 40 mg/1 of cyanide upset an activated
sludge plant for two days (E-29) .  On the other hand, after
acclimation, 60 mg/1 was tolerated in an activated sludge
plant  (E-21) and 200 mg/1 was tolerated in a trickling filter
plant  (E-29).

     5.  It has been reported that the toxicity of copper
and nickel are enhanced by the presence of cyanide (E-16 , E-118)

     6.  It was reported that cyanide levels of 4 to 100
mg/1 upset the sludge digestion process from four days to
complete retardation (E-5).
                             E-18

-------
     7.  Trickling filter operations have been impaired by
30 mg/1 of cyanide  (E-7),  but 10 mg/1 were destroyed by trick-
ling filter operations.

     8.  The nitrification process was reported to'be in-
hibited by about 75% by 0.65 mg/1 of sodium cyanide  (0.34
mg/1 of cyanide) (E-129).  Other reports indicate that 2 to 72 mg/1
of cyanide as HCN interfered with nitrification, the upper
value completely inhibiting the process (E-5).

     9.  The cyanide ion shows a remarkable range of behavior
with biological processes, from interference at low concen-
trations with non-acclimated systems, to tolerance at high
levels in acclimated systems.

     Iron

     Iron is a transition metal forming two groups of salts,
the divalent ferrous salt series and the trivalent ferric
salt series.  Both the ferrous ion and the ferric ion are
precipitated from solution at neutral pH values as hydrox-
ides .

     Iron salts are natural constituents of both domestic
and commercial wastewaters.  While the levels in domestic
sewage are always low, the levels in certain industrial or
commercial wastes may be excessive.  Major industrial sources
include metal pickling and cleaning processes, chemical manu-
facturing, electric utilities, etc.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Iron is a necessary element for microbiological
growth and its absence causes a reduction in metabolic
activity  (E-39, E-112) .

     2.  The activated sludge process appears to be rather
insensitive to iron concentration except for very high con-
centration levels.  It is reported that 100 mg/1 causes
little adverse effect, but 1000 mg/1 stops oxygen uptake
(E-21).

     3.  The sludge digestion process is more sensitive to
soluble iron concentration.  It is reported that 5 mg/1 is a
maximum level, as higher iron levels cause interference with
the process, due to hydrolysis of the iron and release of
acidity (A-l).  As has been previously emphasized, the sludge
digestion process is very sensitive  to pH values outside the
optimum range of 6.5 to 7.5.  Therefore, the inhibitory effect
                             E-19

-------
of iron is no doubt due to the acidity released (E-5, E-118) .

     4.  A technique to control metal interference with sludge
digestion is to add iron sulfide directly to the digester.
Iron sulfide, although very insoluble, is more soluble than
most other metal sulfides.  When a metal, e.g., copper,
enters the digestor, it reacts with the iron sulfide to pre-
cipitate the copper sulfide, and thus removes the copper
from solution.  The less "toxic" iron is solubilized as a
result.  If the pH is stabilized in the optimum range, the
iron is largely precipitated out as the hydroxide, and the
digester is protected from the effect of the copper.  The
selection of iron sulfide for this use is a result of its
inherent low "toxicity" to microorganisms.

     Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects:

     Synergistic effects occur between pairs of transition
metal ions present in a wastewater.  A specific effect of
iron synergism with chromium has been reported and synergism
with other metals may also occur (E-29).

     Antagonistic effects may be anticipated with sulfide ion
and hydroxyl ion (high pH), due to precipitation of the sul-
fides and hydroxides of iron.  An antagonistic effect should
be expected with cyanide, since the ferrocyanide complex is
very stable and no doubt non-inhibitory to biological pro-
cesses .

     Lead

     Lead is found in natural waters at trace levels as the
divalent ion.  It occurs in domestic sewage as a result of
its presence in the water supply and also as a result of
corrosion of lead plumbing.  It is present in industrial
wastewaters from storage battery manufacture, tetraethyl
lead production, and pigment, paint and cement industries.
It also is contributed to wastewater flow as a result of
manufacture and use of lead-containing pesticides.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  At concentration levels of 0.005 to 0.05 mg/1, lead
has no effect on the activated sludge process.  A moderate
"toxicity" of lead to microorganisms has been reported above
0.1 mg/1 and also above 1 mg/1 (E-5) .

     2.  In apparently contradictory results, one paper
states that a significant effect on oxygen uptake is noted


                             E-20

-------
in the presence of lead from 10 to 100 mg/1 (E-29) , while a
second paper states that no significant change in oxygen con-
sumption is noted at up to 50 mg/1 (E-21).

     3.  Lead concentrations of up to 0.05  mg/1 have been
reported to have no effect on the nitrifying bacteria
nitrosonomas (E-100).

     Manganese

     Manganese is found in domestic sewage  in trace amounts.
The significant aqueous form is the divalent ion.  Manganese
is contributed in the wastewaters from storage battery manu-
facture, paint manufacture, chemical manufacture, etc.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  It has been reported that a concentration'of 7 mg/1
of manganese has no adverse effect on the activated sludge
process.  However, two reports indicate that at 10 mg/1 of
manganese, a severe adverse reaction occurred with the acti-
vated sludge process, and a severe inhibition of oxygen up-
take was experienced.  Oxygen uptake was completely inhibited
at 50 mg/1 of manganese (E-21).

     2.  Manganese salts in the concentration range of 12.5
to 50 mg/1 have the unusual property of stimulating the growth
of the microorganism nitrosonomas (E-29).

     Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects :

     Synergistic effects of manganese with zinc and cadmium
have been reported (E-29).  It is probable that similar syn-
ergistic effects may occur with other transition and heavy
metals, and with acidity.

     Although no data have been found on antagonistic ef-
fects with manganese, it may be presumed that hydroxide and
sulfide, which can precipitate manganese, will act in this
manner.

     Mercury

     Mercury forms two series of salts, the monovalent mer-
curous salts and the divalent mercuric salts.  Most mercury
salts  (of either valence form) are considered to be in-
soluble or sparingly soluble.  However, because of the severe
toxicity of mercury to man, fish, wildlife, and lower organisms,
even the slight solubility poses a substantial threat.
                             E-21

-------
     Mercury is found in typical domestic wastewaters at
extremely low levels.  Commercial contributions occur
principally from the chlor-alkali industry (chlorine-caustic
soda manufacture).  Other sources include chemical, drug,
herbicide, fungicide, and paper products from these industries.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  At a concentration level of 0.1 mg/1 of mercury, one
paper reports no effect on the activated sludge process
(E-21); another paper reports a 10% reduction in oxygen up-
take  (E-28).

     2.  A threshold level for adverse  effects of mercury on
the activated sludge process is reported at about 2.5 mg/1
(E-21).

     3.  An investigator reports that at less than 2.5 mg/1,
mercury has little effect on aerobic processes, but at above
5.0 mg/1,aerobic processes are definitely inhibited (E-70) .

     4.  In the concentration range of  1 to 200 mg/1 there
are numerous reports of different degrees of inhibitory effects
on the activated sludge process (E-122, E-29, E-21).

     5.  A study of mercury behavior in the sludge digestion
process indicated that 43 mg/1 of mercury in the digester
had no adverse effect, and that 1365 mg/1 had an adverse
effect (E-18).

     Nickel

     Nickel is a transition metal which forms a series of
divalent  (nickelous) salts and trivalent (nickelic) salts.
Only the divalent salts are of interest in wastewater manage-
ment.  Nickel is present as a trace constituent in domestic
wastewaters.  Nickel is contributed from some commercial
sources at much higher levels, which could disrupt the opera-
tion of a POTW if no control were used.

     The major source of nickel contribution to wastewaters
is from electroplating and related metal finishing processes.
Other minor sources of nickel in wastewater arise from cor-
rosion of alloys, dyeing, and printing  operations.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Activated Sludge Process

         a.  There appears to be no significant adverse effect
                            E-22

-------
from nickel concentrations of less than one mg/1 (E-118) .

         b.  A threshold effect of nickel on the activated
sludge process is reported between one and 2.5 mg/1 (E-118).

         c.  Various adverse effects on the activated sludge
process are reported for nickel influent concentrations of
2.5 to 200 mg/1 (E-19,  E-21, E-25).   These include reduced
oxygen uptake between 10 to 50 mg/1 of nickel and inter-
ference with solids settling between 2.5 and 10 mg/1 of
nickel (E-14).

     2.  Sludge Digestion - The data available on sludge diges-
tion in the presence of nickel show little or no effect of
nickel (from 10 to 500  mg/1) on the sludge digestion process
(E-l, E-3, E-4, E-19, E-21, E-29, E-118).  In view of the sen-
sitivity of microorganisms to nickel ions, it is clear that
the reason no effect was noted (except in one instance  (A-l),
with up to 500 mg/1 of nickel, is because sulfide and per-
haps hydroxide have precipitated the nickel out of solution,
rendering it harmless.   In the absence of adequate sulfide
(or sulfate) in the digester one would expect lower levels
of nickel to interfere with the process.

     3.  Nitrification - It is reported that a level of one-
half to three mg/1 of nickel has an adverse effect, and 10
mg/1 has a very adverse effect on the nitrification process
(E-25, E-118).

     Silver

     Silver is a transition metal which forms a series of
monovalent salts.  It has few soluble salts.  Silver is not
normally a significant constituent of domestic wastewaters.
Because of its relatively high cost, commercial contributors
usually make an effort to recover as much silver as is
economically practical.

     The principal source of silver in wastewaters is the
photo processing industry.  Silver salts are removed from
photographic film with sodium thiosulfate  (hypo) , and the
films are rinsed free of the hypo.  In large photoprocessing
installations, the silver is recovered from the hypo.  Resid-
ual traces in rinse water are not economical to recover, and
these residuals result in contributions to the waste load.

     Silver ion is extremely toxic to microorganisms, being
one of the most reliable disinfectants known.  Therefore,
it would be anticipated that silver discharges to a POTW
                           E-23

-------
could cause interferences with its operation.   However, in
the case of contributions from the photoprocessing industry,
the sterilizing effect of silver is generally  not encountered.
The reason for this anomaly is that virtually  all of the sil-
ver released from a photoprocessing plant is in the form of
the thiosulfate complex.  This complex does not display any
of the "toxic" properties of silver ion.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Free silver ion at the 5 mg/1 level causes an 84%
inhibition of the activated sludge process (E-8, E-9).  At
the 25 mg/1 level, inhibition is complete (E-21).

     2.  In contrast, silver present as the thiosulfate com-
plex, at levels of from 2 mg/1 to greater than 250 mg/1 of
silver had no effect (E-8, E-9).

     Sulfate

     The sulfate radical is a common constituent of natural
water supplies and, as a result, is also a common constituent
of domestic and commercial wastewater streams.  Numerous
industries release sulfates; for example, metal cleaning or
"pickling" is carried out with sulfuric acid,  which may be
neutralized and contributed to a municipal sewer.  Similarly,
air pollution scrubbers collect abundant quantities of sul-
fates and sulfites which may be released to the sewers.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  No data have been found on inhibitory effects of
sulfate on the activated sludge process but presumably,
adverse effects would occur at some elevated concentrations.

     2.  Inhibitory effects have been noted in sludge diges-
tion.  At greater than 500 mg/1, an adverse effect of sul-
fate in sludge digesters is reported (E-ll, E-17) .  At a
level of 2400 mg/1 of sulfate, it is reported  that the gas
generation was reduced by less than 12% from that without
high sulfate level.  At a sulfate level greater than 2400
mg/1, there is a report of complete cessation  of gas pro-
duction (E-19).

     Sulfide

     The sulfide ion is a common constituent of domestic
wastewater, especially when anaerobic conditions occur.  Sul-
fides may be discharged in wastes from petroleum refining,
                           E-24

-------
the leather tanning industry, and chemical manufacturing in-
dustries .

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Excessive levels of sulfide would interfere with the
activated sludge process by depleting the dissolved oxygen
transferred in the aeration process.  One investigator reports
that 25 to 50 mg/1 of sulfide, is tolerable for about one
week (E-29) .

     2.  Sulfide is beneficial to the anaerobic digestion
process at low concentrations because of its ability to pre-
cipitate transition and heavy metals out of solution.  At
higher concentrations, and subject to conditions in the
digester, sulfide becomes inhibitory.

     3.  Reports of tolerance to sulfide in the sludge
digestion process include the following reports:  50 to 100
mg/1 of sulfide can be tolerated (E-120); 200 mg/1 causes
less than 12% loss in gas generation (E-19); and up to 200
mg/1 of sulfide can be tolerated (E-120).

     4.  Sulfide concentrations of 150 to 200 mg/1 in the
digestor feed reduced gas production considerably (E-35,
E-19).

     5.  Reports of inhibitory effects include the follow-
ing conclusions:  Greater than 50 mg/1 of sulfide reduces gas
production considerably; 100 mg/1 of sulfide causes from
a 33% to 50% loss in gas generation; no methane forms with
more than 165 mg/1 of sulfide; 200 rag/1 of sulfide causes
an 80% loss of gas generation; greater than 200 mg/1 of
sulfide is quite toxic, causing complete cessation of gas
generation; and 400 mg/1 of sulfide causes 95% loss of gas
generation (E-19).

         It is clear that the effect of a given level of sul-
fide ion may be quite variable, depending on specific process
conditions.  The reported contradictory effects of sulfide on
anaerobic digestion, points to the dependence of inhibition
or tolerance on other factors.

     Zinc

     Zinc is a transition metal which forms a series of
divalent salts.  It has amphoteric behavior; i.e., it forms
zinc cations and zincate anions.  Zinc has a rather wide-
spread occurrence, and is a normal constituent of domestic


                            E-25

-------
wastewaters.  Zinc is contributed to sewage flow from a number
of industries, including electroplating,  dye and pigment manu-
facture, rubber processing, and electrical generation.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Activated Sludge Process

         a.  A number of reports cite tolerance of the acti-
vated sludge process to zinc, up to concentration levels of
10 mg/1 (E-4, E-6, E-21).

         b.  There is a report of an adverse effect in the
0.08 to 0.5 mg/1 range and a report that  the threshold level
is between 5 and 10 mg/1 (E-29, E-33).

         c.  Reports of inhibitory effects are given over the
range of 20 to 160 mg/1  (E-118, E-29, E-6, E-5, E-67) .

         d.  Synergistic effects are noted between one mg/1
of zinc with 10 mg/1 of cadmium,between 10 mg/1 of zinc and
100 mg/1 of manganese, and between 10 mg/1 of zinc and 10
mg/1 of cadmium.

     2.  Sludge Digestion

         a.  Two references cite no adverse effects of zinc
with the sludge digestion process for 10  mg/1 and 10 to 20
mg/1 of zinc, respectively (E-3, E-6).

         b.  Two references cite adverse  effects of zinc on
the sludge digestion process at 20 mg/1 and 1000 mg/1 re-
spectively (E-118, E-5).   Other investigators indicate 5 mg/1
zinc as the upper limit to prevent decreases in digester gas
production (E-7, A-l), and 10 mg/1 as the highest continuous
dosage that will allow satisfactory digestion (E-78) .

     3.  Solids Settling

         a.  Adverse effects on solids settling have been
reported for 7.5 and 15 mg/1 slug doses of zinc solution over
a half hour period (E-29).

     4.  Nitrification - Inhibition of nitrifying bacteria by
0.08 to 0.5 rag/1 of zinc has been reported (E-100) .
                            E-26

     Organic Substances

     Organic chemicals may be characterized as those com-
pounds made up of carbon in combination with hydrogen, oxygen,
nitrogen, sulfur or phosphorus.  The following list is rep-
resentative of some of the categories of organic compounds
with biological and/or commercial importance.

     Petroleum products
     Perfumes and flavors
     Antibiotics and vitamins
     Insecticides and fertilizers
     Plastics and synthetics
     Dyes and pigments
     Sugars
     Paint and coatings
     Explosives and propellants

Wastewaters reaching a POTW may contain any number of organic
substances.

     Although most organic compounds appear to be compatible
with aerobic biological treatment systems, some have been
known to cause treatment plant upsets.

     It appears to be generally true that anaerobic digestion
is the biological treatment process which is most susceptible
to upset by inhibitory substances, especially chlorinated
hydrocarbons (E-109).  Nitrification is also sensitive to
organics, although acclimation is possible.  Autotrophic
bacteria which are involved in nitrification are more readily
inhibited than are the heterotrophic bacteria which are
involved in the oxidation of carbon compounds.  Organic
sulfur compounds, especially those with sulfur-carbon-nitrogen
linkage are inhibitors of nitrification (E-109).

    The significant organic constituents which have been
identified as having inhibitory effects are discussed below,
and are summarized in Table E-2.
    Alcohols

     An alcohol is a hydrocarbon in which one of the hydrogens
is replaced by a hydroxy  (-OH) group.  The lower molecular
weight alcohols are relatively polar substances and are com-
pletely miscible with water.  With increasing size of the
hydrocarbon group the alcohols become increasingly insoluble
in water.  Polyhydroxy alcohols contain more than one hydroxy
group per molecule.  One of these, ethylene glycol, is used
                           E-27

extensively as an antifreeze.  Alcohols may be found in the
effluents from the Pharmaceuticals, alcoholic beverages,
anti-freeze chemicals and plastics manufacturing industries.
One investigator reports that 19.5 mg/1 of alky1 alcohol
inhibits nitrification by 75% (E-129).

    Phenols

    Phenols are aromatic hydrocarbons with  a hydroxy  (-OH  )
group substituted for a hydrogen  in  the  ring.   Cresols  are
phenols with a methyl group substituted  for a second  hydrogen
in the benezene ring.  Domestic wastewaters do not generally
contain significant amounts of phenols.   Phenols  can  cause
significant problems if present in domestic water supplies
since the chlorophenols that may  be  produced during chlorinat-
ion can be odorous.

    Phenols are basic organic chemicals  used in many  indus-
trial syntheses, including plastics  production, dyes/ and
                            E-31

-------
Pharmaceuticals.  Phenolic wastewater is also produced as a
by-product of petroleum refining.

      Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

      There is an extremely diverse reaction to phenolic
wastes in the activated sludge process depending upon whether
the sludge has been acclimated to phenol.  Relatively small
amounts of phenol can be inhibitory to unacclimated sludge.
However, with acclimation, and use of the complete mixing
mode of operation, high concentrations of phenol can be tol-
erated.  The following results taken from the literature
substantiate this conclusion  (E-23).

      1.  Phenol slug doses of 200 mg/1 can deactivate aerobic
treatment plants by killing the biomass (E-23).

      2.  One investigator reports a progressive inhibition of
nitrification between 4 and 10 mg/1 of phenol or creosol.
5.6 mg/1 of phenol has been found to inhibit nitrification
by 78% (E-129).  Cresol   at concentrations of 4-5 mg/1
inhibits nitrification(E-102).  12.6 mg/1 of o-cresol, 11.4
mg/1 of m-cresol and 16.5 mg/1 of p_-cresol were found to
inhibit nitrification by 75%  (E-129).

      3.  150 mg/1 of 2-4 dinitrol phenol also decreased
nitrification by 75% (E-129).

      4.  A particular bacteria found in the activated sludge
biomass (bacillus cerus) is capable of metabolizing phenol.
Concentrations of up to 1000 mg/1 of phenol are not harmful
to this species (E-32).

      Chlorinated Hydrocarbons

      Hydrocarbons in which one or more hydrogen atom is
 replaced by a chlorine atom can be classified as  chlorinated
 hydrocarbons.  These materials do not occur in nature but
 can be found in domestic water supplies as a result  of chlorine
 disinfection and the consequent chlorination of trace hydro-
 carbons.   Chlorinated  hydrocarbons are known for  their per-
 sistence in the environment and are  considered especially
 dangerous because of their ability to be accummulated in  the
 tissues  of higher life forms.  As a  result, many  chlorinated
 hydrocarbons, particularly pesticides, have been  banned from
 environmental use,  or  their use has  been curtailed.

      Chlorinated  hydrocarbons are employed in a broad range
 of industrial applications including use as solvents  and
                          E-32

-------
degreasing agents,  agricultural chemicals, disinfectants,
dry cleaning agents,  soaps and shampoos,  wood preservatives,
propellants and refrigerants, as well as  in chemical manu-
facturing.  The inhibitory properties of  several important
chlorinated hydrocarbons are detailed below.

     Chloroform

     Chloroform (CHC1.,)  is a low boiling point liquid which
is only slightly soluole in water.  It is used as a solvent
for fats,  oils, rubber,  alkaloids, waxes, resins, as a
cleansing  agent, in fire extinguishers, and in the rubber
manufacturing industry.
     Summary  of  Inhibitory Properties:

     1.   Continuous  doses of chloroform at 16 mg/1 or more
in the raw sludge  feed caused inhibition of anaerobic diges-
tion. Continuous  doses at concentrations of 10 and 11 mg/1
produced a noticeable drop in gas yield (E-110 , E-ll).

     2.   At 1.5  mg/1 of chloroform there is no inhibition of
sludge digestion/while at 14.9 mg/1 inhibition is complete
(E-51).

     3.   One investigator reported slight reduction in diges-
ter gas  production caused by chloroform at a concentration
of 0.1 mg/1.   Also included in this report is  a reference
to an investigation that reported a 50% gas reduction due
to 0.96  mg/1 of  chloroform  (E-107).

     4.   The effect of shock dosing with chloroform was
determined in laboratory digesters.  The table shows the
average  percentage inhibition of gas production for each
shock dose in the raw sludge  (E-110) :

liquid which is insoluble in water and has a characteristic
odor.  It is very toxic to humans.  It is a general purpose
solvent with broad industrial applications.  Carbon tetra-
chloride has been used as a fire extinguisher, a drying agent,
a chemical intermediate, and as an exterminating agent.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  Carbon tetrachloride at levels of 10 mg/1 in sludge
has  been found to be toxic to anaerobic digestion (E-109) .

     2.  Carbon tetrachloride is reported to inhibit digestion
as follows  (E-51):


Concentration Level
	(mg/1)	             Percent Inhibition

       0.8                               0

     159.4                             100
      3.   50 % reduction in methane production occurred at  2.2
 mg/1  (E-107) .

      4.   Another investigator showed that 100% inhibition
 of gas production during anaerobic digestion required a carbon
 tetrachloride dosage of 16 mg/1  (E-103).

      Methylene Chloride

      Methylene chloride  (CH-Cl-) is a colorless, nonflammable,
 liquid which is slightly water soluble.  It is used as a
 solvent  for  cellulose acetate, as a degreasing agent, clean-
 ing fluid and anesthetic.

      Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

      1.   Methane production in anaerobic digestion was re-
 duced by 50% in the presence of  100 mg/1 of methylene chloride
 (E-107).

      2.   Methylene chloride showed the  following reduction  in
 gas production during anaerobic  digestion for each  dosage in
 the raw  sludge  (E-51) :

     2.  A slight reduction in digester gas production was
observed as a result of a concentration of 0.1 mg/1 of
1,1,1-trichloroethane  (E-107).

     3.  A 75% reduction in nitrification was reported in
the presence of  180 mg/1 of allyl  chloride  (E-129).
     Agricultural Chemicals

     Insecticides, pesticides, and herbicides are manu-
factured from chlorinated hydrocarbons and from organo-phos-
phorus compounds.  Some of these materials are damaging to
sewage treatment processes and to fish and wildlife in very
small concentrations  (DDT, aldrin, dieldrin).  Whereas most
other chlorinated hydrocarbons enter the wastewater stream
as a result of industrial manufacturing processes, agricultural
chemicals usually enter wastewater and natural streams by means  r>f
runoff.
                            E-36

-------
     Summary  of  Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  One  laboratory test revealed that two pesticides,
aldrin and  simazine,were not inhibitory to the growth of
nitrifying  bacteria,  Nitrobacter, whereas five other pesti-
cides including  chlordane, heptachlor,  lindane, CIPC, and
ODD prevented growth.  Heptachlor was the most deleterious
compound  (E-99) .

     Organic  Nitrogen Compounds

     Many organic  compounds contain nitrogen, commonly in
the form of a carbon-nitrogen bond.  Because of the numerous
nitrogen oxidation levels ,the chemistry of organic nitrogen
substances  is quite diverse.  At its lowest oxidation state
nitrogen forms amines.  The most common amine is ammonia.
Amines are  classified according to the number of hydrocar-
bon groups  attached to the nitrogen atom.  Thus one substitu-
tion gives  a  primary amine, two substitutions give a second-
ary amine,  three yields a tertiary amine, and four produces
quaternary  ammonium salts.  Amines are generally soluble
in water, and ionize, exhibiting varying pH dependent proper-
ties. At its highest oxidation state, nitrogen forms nitro
compounds.  These  materials are chemically unstable, and are
easily, and sometimes violently reduced (Trinitrotoluene, TNT,
is a typical  example).  Nitrogen exists at intermediate oxi-
dation states, each producing compounds with differing proper-
ties.

     This plethora of nitrogen compounds exerts a wide range
of environmental effects.  While some nitrogen compounds
are compatible with biological treatment, others are inhibi-
tory. Some nitrogen is required for satisfactory treatment
plant operation and a nitrogen source must be added to those
trade wastes  which are nitrogen deficient.  Some organic nitro-
gen compounds are  completely biodegradable, whereas others
are toxic to  wildlife and some are carcinogenic to man.

     Organic  nitrogen is contributed to sewage from domestic
wastewaters which  contain complex proteinaceous materials,
from agricultural  runoff, and from a variety of industrial
operations.

     Specifically, this class of compounds is used in the
textile, dye, pharmaceutical, plastics, varnishes, perfume,
insecticide,  tanning, synthetic fibers, and solvents indus-
tries .

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.  One investigator reports that 5 mg/1 of acrylonitrile
in sludge has an inhibitory effect on anaerobic digestion
(E-109) .

     2.  Another investigator reports that more than 20 mg/1
of acrylonitrile in sludge is not harmful to anaerobic diges-
tion (E-47) .

     3.  0.075 and 0.076 mg/1 of thiourea have been reported
by two investigators as inhibiting nitrification (E-109,
(E-129).

     4.  0.14 and 0.18 mg/1 of thioacetamide have been re-
ported as inhibiting nitrification (E-109, E-129).

     5.  Analine at a concentration of 0.65 mg/1 was found
to inhibit nitrification by 75%  (E-129).

     6.  At concentrations of 20-25 mg/1 of TNT, aerobic pro-
cesses were severly inhibited (E-33).

     7.  Increasing amounts of EDTA adversely effect
settleability of secondary sludge and increases surface scum.
At greater than 10 mg/1 there is a decreased utilization
of oxygen.  At more than 25 mg/1 there is a toxic effect on
coliform bacteria (E-93) .  A concentration of 300 mg/1 of
EDTA has been found to inhibit nitrification by 75% (E-129) .

         fPyridine and  the methylpyridines which occur  in  coke
       iquors  are varied in  the  ability to inhibit nitrifica-
tion  (E-102) as follows:

     Surfactants

     This  group of  chemicals  comprises those substances which
have surface  active properties.   This includes synthetic
detergents , emulsifiers,  foaming agents, and wetting agents.
These  substances comprise normal constituents in domestic
                             E-38

-------
sewage,  mostly associated with laundry detergents and com-
mercial  cleaning formulations.  In addition, they are con-
tributed by numerous industrial and commercial sources, in-
cluding  commercial laundries, wool scouring plants, dyeing,
and rubber processing.

     Surfactants may interfere with operation of a POTW in
a number of ways.  The surfactant may be inhibitory to biologi-
cal processes because of its chemical properties.  The sur-
factant  may also interfere through  various  physical  effects  by
causing  excessive foaming, interfering with oxygen transfer
or dispersing the biomass floe and causing loss of solids.

     Summary of Inhibitory Properties:

     1.   Laboratory tests with the anionic surfactant Nacconol
(at 100  mg/1) showed a stimulatory effect on the activated
sludge process.  At concentration levels greater than 200
mg/1, inhibitory effects were noted.  These effects were
worse at low pH  (about 5) and low sludge loadings (E-63).

     2.   In another laboratory test with the cationic surfactant
Ceepryn, 100 mg/1 of this material suppressed oxygen uptake.
The effect was more deleterious at high pH  (about 9)  (E-63).

     3.   In a pilot plant study, it was noted that  10 mg/1
of an alkyl benzene sulfonate  (ABS) surfactant had  a
negligible effect on the activated sludge process.  It was
reported that higher concentrations can be very inhibitory
(E-61) .

     4.   In another test, 10 and 20 mg/1 levels of ABS
caused minor losses (5 to 8%) in BOD  removal efficiency in
the activated sludge process.  In the same study, a linear
.alkyl sulfate  (LAS) at 10 and 20 mg/1 caused a loss of only
one to two percent BOD removal in the activated sludge
process  (E-50) .

     5.   A laboratory study determined that a surface active
agent at concentration levels from near zero to 50 mg/1 inter-
fered with oxygen transfer to water (E-92).

     6.   Digestion is likely to be seriously affected if
the detergent concentration exceeds 2% of the weight of sus-
pended solids.  Initiation of digestion processes may be
difficult at a detergent concentration of only 1% (E-109).

      Miscellaneous Organic Chemicals

      Benzidine

      A laboratory experiment is reported which showed that
 500  mg/1 of benzidine inhibited oxygen uptake for 144 hours.
 At 5  mg/lf  sludge activity decreased (E-10).

      t-butyl Borane

      In laboratory tests 500 mg/1 of t-butyl borane was found
 to be inhibitory to activated sludge processes.

      Formaldehyde

      A level of 500 mg/1 of formaldehyde. was found to be
 stimulatory to activated sludge processes.


      Benzene/ Toluene, Xylene

      Benzene and Xylene at the 1000 mg/1 level are reported
 to seriously retard sludge digestion.  Toluene at the 500
 mg/1  level  has no appreciable effect on the  process.
       *
      Oil and Grease

      The term oil  and grease covers a wide variety of sub-
stances that might  be found in the influent to a POTW.  Unlike
other constituents, which usually have well defined chemical
forms, oil and grease characteristics are usually dependent
on the method by which the material is analyzed.  Instead
of oil and grease representing a specific chemical species,
it is best defined  as those organic substances with similar
solubilities  in a particular extracting solvent.

      The most commonly  used solvents for oil and grease
analysis are hexane, petroleum ether and freon.  These sol-
vents will extract  a broad spectrum of organic materials,
including fatty acids, soaps, esters, fats, waxes and various
petroleum products  (E-131).  Freon is specifically recommended
by EPA  as the solvent for oil and grease extractions.  Con-
sequently, it is essential that all oil and grease measure-
ments be completed  utilizing the freon method to assure
uniformity of results.

      Oil and grease is  a natural constituent of sewage.  It
has been reported that fecal material contains more than 25%


                             E-40

-------
grease (E-129).   Additionally, domestic kitchen wastes con-
tribute a large  quantity of solvent extractable materials.
Commercial or industrial sources of oil and grease include
slaughter houses, food processers and restaurants, as well
as automobile service stations and petroleum refineries or
storage depots.   Although oil and grease from all of these
sources may be extracted by the same solvent, and therefore
considered a single constituent, the substances included
in the analysis  may or may not be biodegradeable.

      In general, the 4elineation between biodegradeable oil
and grease and the more refractory extractable substances,
corresponds to the distinction between oil and grease of
animal and vegetable origin versus that of petroleum origin.
Oil and grease of animal and vegetable origin has been reported
to be more biodegradeable than that of petroleum origin
(E-13) .  Nevertheless, many municipalities limit only total
oil and grease (C-98).  Traditionally, oil and grease con-
centration limits were focused on the prevention of sewer
clogging and coating of pumping stations and treatment
facilities, in which case the type of extractable material
present was not  important.  However, distinguishing between
petroleum and animal origin oil and grease can yield informa-
tion on both oil and grease treatability and source.

      In addition to partially passing through a biological
treatment plant, petroleum oil at concentrations ranging
between 50 and 100 mg/1 has been reported to interfere with
the aerobic processes in a POTW (E-23).   It is believed
that the principal interference is caused by attachment of
oil, which has a density less than water, to the bacterial
floe particles,  which are to be gravity settled.  The result
is a slower settling rate, loss of solids by carryover out
of the settling  basin, and excessive release of BOD from the
POTW to the environment (E-108).  Additionally, in activated
sludge units,  oil and grease may coat the biomass, interfering
with oxygen transfer.   As a consequence of this "smothering"
action, a lower  degree of treatment may be achieved (E-130).
Oil and grease may also interfere with the operation of physi-
cal-chemical treatment facilities by coating the activated
carbon and thus  diminishing the adsorption of organic pollutants.

      Oil and grease may also cause other problems in POTW
operation.  Actual operating problems have been reported in
which oil and grease have clogged screens and interfered
with skimming operations.   Large quantities of oil and grease
may block screens, scum draw-off systems and sludge pumps,
causing excessive loads on mechanical scraping and cleaning
devices.   Excessive oil and grease may also cause serious
                            E-41

-------
problems in pumping station operation by fouling float
systems so that pumps fail to operate, and by blocking pump
intakes.  Additionally, oil and grease may foul electrodes
used for monitoring volatile and explosive mixtures, causing
a serious hazard.  Since wetwells are seldom pumped dry,
the accumulation of floating oil and grease can cause
operational problems in this portion of the system  (E-130).

      Among the more troublesome operational problems caused
by oil and grease are those associated with anaerobic digester
operation.  Oil and grease can be responsible for foaming
throughout the plant and especially in digester vessels.  If
oil and grease reaches a covered digestor, a crust may form
on the underside of the cover, causing serious maintenance
problems, and reducing the available digestor volume.  Scum
layers in digestors may also interfere with effective mixing,
temperature control and gas separation (E-130).

   Discharge of Excessive Levels of Pollutants
                        »
     Introduction

     Sewage plant operations may be impaired by various types
of shock loads.  Shock loading has been defined as  any  rapidly
occurring change in the chemical or physical environment  of
a plant's biomass caused by the introduction of a new pollu-
tant, or a change in the rate of flow of  a pollutant  (E-73) .
Four specific types of shock loads are commonly encountered
in POTW's:

     1.  Materials Deleterious  at Trace Levels

         The introduction  of specifically deleterious materi-
als such as metallic pollutants  (copper,  zinc, chromium,  etc.)
at trace levels  has  a well defined impact on treatment
plant operation.  These materials interfere with the metabolic
activities within the biomass cells.  Because of the precise
nature of this type of shock load, it is  possible to set
down in advance  the maximum acceptable concentration for  such
pollutants.

     2.  Qualitative Shock Loads

         It has  been reported that if a treatment system
has become  acclimated to  a pollutant, the introduction  of a
new type of organic load  can block the assimilation of  the
waste that  the system was  treating  (E-89) .  This type of  shock
load is  termed Qualitative (E-73), and may be  caused by  the
introduction of  a new waste to  a system which would normally
be biologically  treatable.
                              E-42

-------
     3.   Quantitative Shock Loads

         Quantitative shock loads may be characterized as
any sudden change in the BOD loading that a plant receives.
Since the type of BOD loading is not changed, as in the case
of qualitative shocks, the result is an inability of the POTW
to treat all of the increased amount of organic matter
entering the plant.  Quantitative shock loads are often called
Excessive Discharge to the POTW, and generally refer to the
introduction of unusually large amounts of BOD to the system.
Other oxygen demand parameters such as COD or TOC may be
used to  describe quantitative shock loads, but BOD is the
most common measure of organic loading and therefore its use
offers the most general description of the phenomenon.


     4.   Hydraulic Shock Loads

         Hydraulic shock loads are characterized by a rapid
decrease in the concentration of the waste or the organic
loading  of the system (E-73).  Such a decrease in loading
may result from the sudden introduction of stormwater into
the system, as is common with combined sewer systems.

     Impact of Excessive Discharge and Shock Loading on
     POTW Operation

     Contributions of trace deleterious materials and quali-
tative shock loads pose a relatively small, although signifi-
cant, problem to the POTW operation.  These two types of
treatment interference can be controlled if the municipality
places an upper limit on the quantity of the material that
would be acceptable.  However, for quantitative shock load-
ing and  hydraulic shock loading, setting limits is not
straightforward.  Several specific problems arise when trying
to define an approach to  controlling  these  two  types of  plant
disruption.  Each POTW is designed to treat a specific maxi-
mum amount of loading.  Most  POTW1 s are operating at levels
which are either above or below design capacity,  and each may be
designed to handle differing diurnal flow patterns.  Because
of the heterogeneous nature of POTW operations and waste
flows it becomes very difficult to predict in advance what
kind of  transient loads a POTW can handle.  Some work has been
completed in this area, and one investigator states that
hydraulic shock loads of up to 100% above normal flow can be
accepted without serious disruption of plant operations
(E-71).   Another researcher has presented a kinetic model
that may enable some operators to predict the response of
treatment plants to quantitative shock loads (E-72).
                          E-43

-------
     The apparent  lack of data  on  approaches to handling
excessive discharges points out that more research into this
area is needed.  A first order  of  priority should be the
development of a firm definition of what constitutes exces-
sive discharge or  shock loading, and how differing plant
conditions alter the effects of these  types of plant upsets.
For the short term, certain remedial steps can be taken by
plant operators that will reduce the impact of excessive
discharge.  Wherever possible,  industrial contributors should
be required to implement equalization  of concentrated organic
wastes so that they can be released at low flow periods.
Additionally, an effort should  be  made to regulate industrial
sources of stormwater.  Quite often, industrial facilities
discharge stormwater, collected on their plant property, to
sanitary systems that otherwise do not carry stormwater.
To avoid hydraulic overloading,  the municipality should dis-
courage this type  of activity when practiced indiscriminately.
However, the typical industrial stormwater may be contaminated,
and consequently not of high enough quality to be discharged
to a navigable water directly.   Industries should be required
to segregate runoff within the  plant,  providing for the direct
discharge of clean stormwater.   Contaminated runoff should be
collected and stored for subsequent discharge to the sewer.
Equalization of contaminated stormwater for discharge during
low flow periods should decrease the possibility of hydraulically
overloading the POTW, and should be strongly encouraged as a
solution to this problem.

Other Substances Which Interfere with  POTW Facilities

    This category  includes those substances which may interfere
with the operation of a sewage  treatment system, but which
are not necessarily inhibitory  to  biological processes.
Typical substances of this class include corrosive materials,
substances which cause blockages in sewer lines and flammable
or explosive materials.  Although  these materials may not
inhibit biological processes, they can cause serious dis-
ruptions of treatment system operations.  In the case of
corrosive or explosive substances, severe damage to collection
or treatment facilities may result from their introduction
into the system.   Consequently, corrosive or explosive
materials, as well as substances that  may cause sewer line
blockages, are generally totally excluded from POTW systems
by ordinance.  Unlike trace inhibitory materials that may
be tolerable, or even beneficial at low levels, the
prohibited materials included in this  section should be
closely regulated  because of the severity of their effect
on treatment and collection systems.
                              E-44

-------
     Corrosive Materials

     Corrosion in relation to sewerage systems can be defined
as the phenomenon in which a pipe ,conduit ,or piece of
equipment is gradually deteriorated by the fluid with which
it comes in contact.

     For sewage collection systems/ one of the most prevalent
types of corrosion is a deterioration of concrete pipe
called "crown" corrosion.  In this process, sulfates in
wastewater are reduced under anaerobic conditions to sulfides,
which hydrolyze to hydrogen sulfide.  In addition, an
industry such as an oil refinery or textile manufacturer
may discharge sulfides directly to the sewer.  If the con-
crete pipe is only partially filled, the H-S formed may
diffuse into the air above the fluid, where the bacteria
Thiobacillus can convert it to sulfuric acid.  Sulfuric
acid then reacts with the calcium oxide in the concrete,
forming calcium sulfate or gypsum.  This material is
structurally unsound, and will eventually crumble.

     Coating the interior of concrete pipes with an inert
material can avoid crown corrosion, but an equally effective
preventative measure is the exclusion of sulfides from the
collection system.  Chlorinating sulfide carrying industrial
wastewater is one way of achieving this goal.  However, when
the wastewater contains sulfate, which may be present as a
result of non-carbonate hardness in the water supply,
anaerobic conditions in the sewer should be avoided since
they provide the necessary atmosphere for the creation of
H_S.  Nevertheless, anaerobic conditions may be unavoidable
in many instances.  In those cases, proper sewer ventilation
is necessary not only to provide a measure of safety from
potentially lethal hydrogen sulfide, but also to avoid the
oxidation of H_S to sulfuric acid.  Although sulfide may
be beneficial in terms of precipitating metals, its presence
should be closely monitored to avoid crown corrosion.

     The second type of corrosion is the dissolution of
metallic pipes and structures.  This commonly occurs when
wastewater has a low pH, or contains some other oxidizing
agent.  Generally, waste mixtures should be pretreated to
fall in the pH range of 6 to 9.  Lower pH  (acidic) discharges
will attack and disintegrate metal and concrete pipes and
structures.  Higher pH values are more tolerable, and enforce-
ment of the high pH restriction should be at the discretion
of the POTW operator.  High fluoride levels, especially in
acidic solutions, are a potential corrosion threat.  High


                           E-45

-------
concentrations of chlorine, hypochlorites and chlorides are
all corrosive to metals.

     Many other products, when reacted with water will form
acidic products which are detrimental to sewer systems.
For example, acetic anhydride will hydrolize to form acetic
acid; acetyl chloride will form acetic and hydrochloric
acids, and ferric chloride will release hydrochloric acid upon
hydrolysis.  Sulfur dioxide and sulfurous acid are also common
materials corrosive to sewers and sewage treatment plants.
Materials Which  Cause  Sewer  Blockages

     Discharges  from commercial and industrial establishments
must be controlled to prohibit materials which will clog
sewers or treatment plants, or form deposits that adversely
affect a sewer's hydraulic characteristics.  Precipitates
such as ferric hydrous oxide can interfere with the activated
sludge system by inhibiting oxygen or food transfer between
sludge particles and the surrounding liquids.  Sulfates and
carbonates can react with calcium salts to form a scale
which can coat and ultimately block pipes.  Fatty acids
similarly react with calcium salts to form a curdy scum
which can coat and block sewer lines.

     Very high levels of suspended solids can cause blockages
in sewer lines and overload primary settling tanks.  Small
fibers from textile industry operations may interfere
with screens and filters by matting and blocking the passage
of wastewaters.

     Grease accumulation can cause sewer line clogging
both in the collection system and in the interconnecting
sewers within the POTW.  Collection systems with restuarant
connections are  especially prone to blockages, unless suitable
grease collection facilities are provided at the contributing
source.  Sewer clogging is most prevalent in small sewer
lines, such as laterals, with 12 inch or smaller diameters.
To cause a blockage problem, oil and grease which is typically
discharged in a  liquid or emulsion form, must congeal or
solidify.  Generally,  the temperatures encountered in sewers
are high enough  to prevent solidification of oil and grease
of petroleum origin   (hydrocarbon type).  However,oil and
grease of animal or vegetable origin can exhibit a broad
range of congealing temperatures.  Some oils and greases of
animal or vegetable origin will congeal at  the highest  tem-
peratures encountered  in sewers, while others may remain
fluid at the lowest temperatures.  The probability that oil
                            E-46

-------
and grease will  congeal in a sewer pipe depends  on a number
of factors including the type of oil and grease  involved,
temperature  and  the  fluid velocity in the pipe.   A sufficiently
high velocity  in the sewer can prevent clogging  by keeping
all congealed  material in suspension, even if all other con-
ditions  are  appropriate for solidification.

     Explosive and Flammable Materials

     The discharge of potentially explosive or flammable
materials to sewer lines must be strictly controlled.
A serious hazard can be created by hydrocarbon solvents,
which float on the surface of water, and exert their full
vapor pressure on the air space above.  Such substances as
gasoline, kerosene,  naphtha, benzene,toluene and xylene
therefore,  are particularly hazardous.  Ethers,  alcohols,
ketones, aldehydes and organic peroxides similarly pose
fire or explosion hazards.

     Powerful oxidizing substances such as peroxides, chlorates,
perchlorates and bromates are potentially dangerous and
should be restricted.  Substances which can liberate flammable
or explosive gases such as carbides, hydrides, and sulfides
must also be carefully controlled.

     Many of the above chemicals originate from facilities
that manufacture or use organic chemicals.  POTW's with such
facilities among their contributors  should give special
attention to the control of explosive  or flammable materials.
The production of methane  in  sewers  resulting fron anaerobic
conditions also presents a well known  potential explosion
hazard.  Because of the potential hazards caused by the
presence of explosive materials in  sewers, extreme care should
be  taken whenever entering a  sewer manhole.

Environmental Considerations

     Sludge Disposal or Utilization

     Interference with  the biological  unit processes of a
POTW may not represent  the only impact of industrial con-
tributions.  The sludges produced during  the course of
biological treatment will  generally  contain, in a  concen-
trated form, many of the pollutants  contributed to the POTW
that may be considered  inhibitory.   Likewise, if pretreatment
of  industrial wastes is practiced, many of the undesirable
industrial constituents undoubtedly  will be  concentrated  in
the industrial sludge.  Those responsible for disposing of


                             E-47

-------
these sludges  should  be  aware  of  the  potential impact of
industrial wastes  (A-20).   Of  most concern are those pollu-
tants that are generally considered deleterious to the environ-
ment.  Specifically,  the so called "heavy metals" and various
chlorinated hydrocarbons,  such as polychlorinated biphenyls
are of major concern.

     Depending on  the sludge disposal or utilization method
employed, potentially harmful  materials in sludges may have
varying effects.   Four methods of sludge disposal or utiliza-
tion are currently in common practice.  These methods include
(1) land application, (2)  disposal in sanitary landfills,
(3) ocean dumping  and (4)  incineration (A-20, E-132, E-134).

     Spreading sludges on land is generally considered a
sludge utilization method,  since  the  sludge acts as a source
of nutrients or as a  soil conditioner.  Using sludge from
municipal wastewaters containing  incompatible pollutants
requires a certain degree of caution.  Because the waste-
waters from certain industries contain concentrations of
potentially harmful elements such as  zinc, copper, nickel,
cadmium, boron, lead  or  mercury which are concentrated in the
sludge, it is  important  to be  aware of the possible effect of
these substances on the  environment (E-133).  Trace levels
of many of these elements are  essential to plant growth,
although higher concentrations may have deleterious effects.

     High concentrations of many  of the substances mentioned
above have been noted in sludges  derived from purely domestic
wastewaters.   Undoubtedly,  metals in  such systems originate
from relatively uncontrolled sources.  Corrosion of metallic
plumbing elements  in  soft water areas  may be such a source, as
is storm water runoff in urban areas  having combined sewer
systems.  Consequently,  the introduction of industrial waste-
water containing incompatible  pollutants may intensify the
problem.  Special  attention must  be paid to details such as
the cation exchange capacity of the soils upon which the
sludge is placed,  and the general chemistry of the runoff
and ground water likely  to be  encountered.  Additionally,
each crop has  a different affinity for these elements, and
crops, therefore,  should be chosen accordingly.

     Sanitary  landfill operations pose similar problems for
disposal of sludges from POTW's with  significant industrial
wastewater components.  Proper precautions must be taken to
adequately protect the environment from the impact of such
sludges when applied  to  a landfill.   The principal considera-
tion in this regard is the leachate that is created by rain-
fall and runoff interacting with  the  sludge in the landfill.
                              E-48

-------
Metals and other substances present in the sludge are trans-
ferred to the leachate which in turn can adversely affect
surface and ground water in the area.  Consequently, control
of leachate in landfills handling sludges with industrial
waste components is of prime importance in the protection
of the aquatic environment.

     Incineration of sludges containing incompatible pollu-
tants can also cause environmental problems.  Incineration
of such sludges may create a serious air pollution problem.
This situation is not limited only to the volatilization of
heavy metals or chlorinated hydrocarbons, but to other sub-
stances as well.  The increasing use of incineration for
sludge disposal in the recent past highlights the importance
of proper consideration of potential air pollution problems.
The design of such facilities must provide adequate safe-
guards to assure that the stack gases will comply with
Federal,  State and local air quality and emission standards
and will not cause an adverse impact on the environment.

     Sludge may also be disposed of in the ocean.  This method
has been practiced on both the east and west coasts of the
United States.  East coast POTW's have utilized barges to
transport sludge to areas in the ocean designated for dump-
ing by the*EPA and the Corps of Engineers.  West coast POTW's
have utilized long pipelines for ocean disposal of sludge.
Ocean disposal of sewage sludge is currently regulated by the
EPA, with permits being required for this operation.  The
environmental impact on the ocean of sludges from POTW's
has been the subject of many studies in the recent past.  The
effect on the ocean of incompatible pollutants in sludge has
been an integral part of these studies, which have led to
the close control of ocean disposal currently being exercised.

     Reuse of Wastewaters

     Environmental considerations relating to the reuse of
wastewaters from POTW's containing industrial contributions
are similar to the factors involved in sludge disposal or
utilization.  The primary concern in the reuse of such
wastewaters is the presence of incompatible pollutants
from industrial wastes which may be deleterious to the
environment.  The variety of wastewater reuse practices
currently employed result in a wide variation of associated
environmental considerations.
                            E-49

-------
      The major categories of wastewater reuse are land
application,  in which either raw or treated wastewater is
spread over a specific land area, and reuse involving re-
cycle for domestic or industrial purposes.   In the case
of  land application, reuse generally involves utilization
of  the wastewater for agricultural purposes.  In addition,
it  also implies completion of the hydrologic cycle by return
of  the wastewater to the ground water aquifer.  Consequently,
the land application of raw or treated wastewater containing
incompatible  pollutants to a large degree involves the
same  basic concerns as delineated above for the land appli-
cation of sludge.

      In the case of direct land application of wastewater,
particularly  treated wastewater, the concentration of in-
compatible pollutants from industrial wastes being applied
to  the land may be lower than with sludge.   In sludge, there
is  generally  a concentration of such pollutants that occurs
through removal in the wastewater treatment process and de-
watering  steps.  However, many incompatible pollutants may
only  experience incidental removal in the treatment process,
so  that the quantity passing through the POTW is greater
than  that being removed.  Additionally,  the volume of
treated effluent from a POTW greatly exceeds the volume of
sludge generated.  These two factors suggest that in many
cases  the net quantity of incompatible pollutants from
industrial wastes being applied to the land may be greater
with  treated  wastewater than with sludge.   In any event,
careful evaluation of all environmental  factors must be
made  prior to embarking on a program of  wastewater reuse
by  land application.

     The  recycling of treated wastewater varies from reuse
for industrial purposes, to the return of the treated effluent
to  the domestic water supply either directly or indirectly.
Concerns  associated with the presence of incompatible pollutants
in  wastewater being reused in industrial facilities vary
widely depending upon the specific circumstances of the appli-
cation.   Many such recycle schemes involve  reuse of the waste-
water  for cooling purposes or. for make-up to a closed cooling
system.   In most industrial situations,  environmental con-
siderations are more closely related to  the ultimate dis-
position  of the wastewater rather than the  factors involved
in  the  industrial reuse application.

     The  recycling of treated wastewaters to domestic water
supplies  by both direct and indirect methods is the area of
greatest  concern regarding the presence  of  incompatible
                             E-50

-------
pollutants from industrial wastes.  In these applications
the principal concern is public health, so that even trace
quantities of many incompatible pollutants may be intolerable,
The methods utilized for recycling vary from direct return to
water supply impoundments, to indirect return via injection
into the groundwater aquifer or discharge to a water course
used for domestic purposes.  In either case, the treated
effluent is diluted so that trace quantities of incompatible
pollutants may become undetectable.  Nevertheless, it is
possible that a build-up of refractory pollutants may occur
with such recycling over an extended period of time.  Con-
sequently, it is imperative that POTW's with industrial
wastewater components contemplating or practicing waste-
water reuse for domestic purposes, exercise careful control
over the incompatible pollutants present to avoid any
possibility of a public health hazard.

         REMOVAL AND PASS THROUGH OF POLLUTANTS IN
               PUBLICLY OWNED TREATMENT WORKS
Introduction

    The purpose  of this section of the report is to summarize
available  information on removal and effluent concentrations,
or pass-through of  pollutants in POTW's.   It is intended to
be responsive  to  the portion of Section 304(f) of PL 92-500
which  states,  "Guidelines under this subsection shall be
established to control and prevent the discharge*...(either
directly or through publicly owned treatment works) of any
pollutant  which interferes with, passes through, or otherwise
is incompatible with such works".

    The information contained herein was obtained from a survey
of POTW1s  having  analytical data for influent and effluent
concentrations of incompatible pollutants.  Specific emphasis
was placed on  obtaining data on the concentration of metals in
POTW systems.  Data was obtained from a total of 269 treatment
facilities for 61 pollutant parameters.  Wastewater flow in
the POTW's represented by the survey varied from less than 0.05
MGD to more than  110 MGD.  The major portion of plants in the
survey, a  total of  101 POTW's,were in the range of 1.0 to
5.5 MGD,representing 38 percent of the total number of facilities
reporting  data.   Computer facilities were utilized to summarize
and analyze the data obtained.  The summary computer reports
are presented  in  Appendix 6 of these guidelines.

    The discussion which follows describes data sources,
procedures used in data compilation, limitations of the
reported data, and plant performance evaluation for primary,
trickling  filter  and activated sludge plants.  A limited
discussion of  biological treatment plants with chemical
addition and tertiary plants is also presented, along with the
results of correlation and regression analyses for selected
pollutant  parameters.  A characterization of the performance
of primary and biological treatment plants (trickling filter
and activated  sludge) is presented in terms of percent removal
and efffluent  concentration  (pass through) for the 17 most
significant pollutant parameters.

    The performance characterization results contained in
this section,  are presented only to provide guidance in deter-
mining pretreatment requirements where sufficient operational
data is not available at a specific POTW.  The data is not
intended to serve as a substitute for detailed influent and
effluent sampling of the treatment plant, which will provide


                              F-l

-------
the most reliable removal and pass through information for
the system in question.  However, the data does present removal
and pass through information which may be considered typical
of many conventional primary and biological treatment plants.

Data Collection

     In accumulating data, an attempt was made to compile a
broad base of valid removal and pass through information on
various sewage treatment processes.  An extensive search was
undertaken covering data in the published literature and
unpublished data collected by Federal, State and interstate
agencies, and individual sewerage system operators.  With the
cooperation of the EPA Region II office, NPDES permit
applications from publicly owned treatment works were evaluated
as a potential source of removal and pass through data.  It
was concluded that permit applications were generally not a
good source for this information.

     However, another data source from the EPA regional
offices, compliance monitoring reports, was identified as a
significant source of removal and pass through information.
Compliance monitoring reports are prepared by the EPA
regional enforcement or State enforcement programs for POTW's
with NPDES permits.  These reports summarize the results of
on-site monitoring, usually performed on a continuous basis
for 24 or 48 hours.  In some EPA regions, monitoring encom-
passes both influent and effluent streams, while in other
regions only the plant effluent is sampled.  In the regions
where influent and effluent data were available, these reports
were found to be an excellent data source in that they usually
covered a wide range of pollutant parameters and were generally
uniform in format.

     Although the compliance monitoring program has just
recently begun, these reports nevertheless represent about
40 percent of the total data base compiled.  Most of the
reports obtained were from EPA Regions V and VII, as their
programs are well advanced, and both plant influent and
effluent are sampled.

     Interstate pollution control agencies, river basin
commissions. State agencies, and individual sewer system
operators were contacted in the data collection phase of the
work.  Most of the governmental agencies contacted did not
compile removal or effluent data on parameters other than
those normally associated with domestic sewage, except where
it was known or suspected that industrial wastewater was
interfering with or passing through the system.  However,
                            F-2

-------
those  State agencies and interstate commissions which did pro-
vide valid comprehensive data comprised about 50 percent of
the total data base compiled.  Individual POTW1s and the pub-
lished literature constituted only an estimated 10 percent
of the compiled data.  Most POTW's contacted were not sampling
for comprehensive removal parameters on a routine basis.
The literature was found to contain very little specific
plant  removal or pass through data on parameters other than
those  normally used for the analysis of domestic sewage.

    Altogether, removal and pass through data was obtained
from 269 plants, geographically distributed according to
Report No. 1 of Appendix 6.

     Data Compilation

     Reported data was categorized according to treatment
process, treatment flow rate, and percent industrial flow.
Report No. 2 of Appendix 6 summarizes the treatment process
and flowrate categories, most of which were used in grouping
the data reported.  Plant processes were categorized into  five
major classes as follows:

     A - Primary Sedimentation Treatment Process
     B - Trickling Filter
     C - Activated Sludge
     D - Filtration
     J - Miscellaneous

     Additional plant and sampling information was also
collected.  Report No.  3 of Appendix 6 details the sampling
procedure, sampling date, major industrial contributors, and
level of POTW control over industrial contributors.  The
sampling procedure is indicated as either flow proportioned
composite  (FC), time composite  (C), or grab  (G).  If a  com-
posite sample was taken the  sampling duration  is  then indi-
cated.  The final item  shown under sampling procedure is  (S)
for simultaneous sampling at influent and effluent, or  (R)
for sampling performed with  plant  retention time  taken  into
account.  The sampling  date  is  indicated as Year/Month/Day,
and under the remarks column, the  composite interval, or the
method of  data  summary  is indicated.  Where the  information
was readily available, major industrial  contributors and the
level of POTW control over industry  is also shown.  The
 level of control is a subjective measure ranging  from no
control  (O) to  very tight control  (10) with surveillance
and monitoring.

      Data  was compiled  according  to  STORET  numbers  for  61
 parameters  as  indicated in Report  No.  7  of  Appendix 6.   Com-
 puter processing was  utilized  in  data  handling and  analysis,


                               F-3

-------
 resulting  in the  reports  shown  in Appendix  6,  and  the corre-
 lation and regression  analyses  which  follow.

 Data  Analysis

      Analysis of  accumulated  data includes  a discussion of
 the limitations of the data reported,  analysis of  6 hour
 simultaneous sampling  results,  evaluation of plant perfor-
 mance data,  and correlation and regression  analyses for
 statistical relationships within the  reported  data.

      Limitations  of Data  Reported

      There  are three major areas in which the  data reported
 is limited;  selection  of  plants, sampling variation, and
 plant performance  variation.  One governmental  source of
 reported data  indicated that  in most cases  their basis for
 selecting POTW's  for sampling was that the  plant was having,
 or was suspected of having, operating problems.  This type of
 data  has been excluded from the data compilation insofar as
 it could be  recognized.   However, the possibility of data
 bias  toward malfunctioning plants should be noted.  This
 could be particularly  true with regard to data  obtained from
 enforcement or compliance activities.  Nevertheless, signifi-
 cant  differences on a broad basis between data  from compliance
monitoring and that obtained  from other sources was not noted.

      Since the reported data was not obtained  from a controlled
 survey, the method of sampling was therefore not consistent.
 It was suspected that data from 6 hour simultaneous sampling
procedures might not be valid, because plant detention time
was not taken into account.  Report No. 4 of Appendix 6 was
prepared to compare sampling results from 24 hour composites
 and 6 hour simultaneous composites for similar plants.  It
was expected that this comparison might show a higher level
of removal with 6 hour sampling.  This was not  confirmed by
 the comparison, and, in fact,  an opposite trend was exhibited
 in some instances.  It was  therefore  concluded that the 6
hour,  and all simultaneous sampling results, should be
included in the reported data.  However, since  sampling
methods could not be compared at a single plant, a potential
data misrepresentation still exists due to sampling variation.

     Plant performance variation is the greatest single area
of data limitation.  A single days sample  from what may be
a highly variable plant operation may not accurately charac-
 terize the removal effectiveness of the plant  in question.
Much of the data obtained in the survey is of this type and
 therefore may be open to question on the basis of represen-
 tativeness .

      Insofar as possible, the reported data is  for typical
 plant operation, and where more than one sampling was

                              F-4

-------
available,  average  values were reported.   In several instances,
a great  deal  of data was available for specific plants where
specialized test programs are underway or thorough monitoring
is performed  on a routine basis.   Average values for these
facilities  were utilized and entered as one data point for
each pollutant parameter in the computer analysis.  Consequently,
several  of  the data points in the analysis are extremely rep-
resentative of plant performance, but were compared on an
equal basis with data far less representative. This is a
possible additional limitation of the results reported.
Nevertheless,  a broad spectrum of plants was covered by this
analysis and  significant variation between the average results
obtained and  values reported for  the plants with significant
quantities  of data  was not noted.

     Plant  Performance

     Report No.  5 of Appendix 6 is a summary of removal data
for 40 parameters grouped by plant treatment process as
follows:  conventional primary plants (Al), other primary
plants (A02),  conventional trickling filter plants  (Bl),
other trickling  filter plants (B02, B04, BOS), conventional
activated sludge plants (Cl), other activated sludge plants
(C02, COS,  C06,  C09, C19,  C20), and miscellaneous plants
(D, J).   It was concluded from this report that the conventional
primary,  trickling  filter, and activated sludge plant groups
could be expanded by incorporating the specialized categories
of these processes  into a summary type of analysis.  Similarly,
Report No.  7  of Appendix 6 is a summary of effluent or pass
through  data  for all 61 parameters for plant groups as out-
lined above for Report No. 5.

     In  addition to the regrouping of plants under the expanded
headings of primary, trickling filter, and activated sludge
plants,  upon  review of Reports 5  and 7, it was also decided
that the miscellaneous and "other" plants should be grouped
as biological treatment plants with chemical addition, and
tertiary plants. The following table summarizes the various
treatment plant groups as discussed above, and defines the
plant categories included in each group for further reference.

     Report No. 6 of Appendix 6 is a summary of removal data
for all  primary, trickling filter and activated sludge plants
not utilizing chemical addition.   Additional plant groups
also included in this report defined as "biological plants"
include  the sum of  trickling filter and activated sludge
plants;  "secondary  plants", those plants meeting the EPA
definition  of secondary treatment  (an effluent BOD and SS
less than or  equal  to 30 mg/1, and a removal of 85% or
greater  for both parameters); and "total all plants", the
                              F-5

sum of  all  269  plants'  data.   The number of plants reporting,
the maximum and minimum percent removal, the mean removal, and
the standard deviation  of the removal data are given for each
parameter under the plant groups discussed above.  It should
be pointed  out  that the number of secondary plants can not
be related  as a percentage of the number of biological
plants  because  not all  biological plants reported the data
required for secondary  plant selection.  Report No. 8 of
Appendix 6  is a summary of effluent or pass through data in
a format similar to the removal report discussed above.

     The removal and effluent data summary reports were
utilized in a selection of parameters for more detailed
examination. The criteria used in this selection were twofold;
the importance  of the parameter in the context of project
objectives, and the number of plants for which data was
reported.   On this basis the following parameters were selected:

     Cadmium (CD)
     Chromium (CR)
     Lead  (PB)
     Mercury (HG)
     Copper  (CU)
     Nickel  (NI)
     Zinc  (ZN)
     Iron  (FE)
     Manganese  (MN)
     Phosphorus-Total (P-TOTAL)
     Total  Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN)
     Ammonia (NH3>
     Phenolics   (PHEN)
     Total  Organic Carbon (TOC)
     Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD)
     Suspended  Solids (SS)
     Biochemical Oxygen Demand, 5 Day (BOD)

All the metallic parameters represent total concentrations
rather  than the soluble fraction of the metal.  COD data
represents  the  sum of COD values obtained by the three
methods of  analysis listed in Reports 6 and 8 of Appendix 6.
Tables  F-2  and  F-3 are  summaries of the removal and effluent
or pass through data for the selected parameters.  Figures
F-l thru F-17 are cumulative distribution curves of the
removal and effluent data for the same parameters.  The data
utilized for these curves is presented in Tables 6-1 and
6-2 of  Appendix 6.

plants.   Removal data has been reported as the mean and the
removal  equalled or exceeded by 50% of the plants reporting,
as estimated from Figures F-l thru F-17.  This latter value
is in some cases also the median.  Similarly, effluent data
has been reported as the mean and the effluent concentration
which has not been equalled or exceeded by 50% of the plants
reporting; as estimated from Figures F-l thru F-17.  Again,
this latter value is in some cases also the median.

     Table F-4 and the figures show that the removal of metals
in primary plants was generally low, with cadmium, nickel and
manganese having the lowest removals.  Maximum effluent con-
centrations were 14 >ig/l for cadmium, 165 pg/1 for nickel and
176 Jig/1 for manganese.  Removal of chromium, lead, copper and
mercury  was somewhat higher, while zinc and iron removals were
the highest of the metals in primary plants.  Maximum effluent
concentrations were 550 pg/1 for zinc, and 1518 .ug/1 for iron.

     In  biological treatment plants, cadmium, nickel and
manganese were removed least, with chromium, lead, copper
and mercury removals being slightly higher.  Effluent concen-
trations of up to 30 jig/1 for cadmium, 182 .ug/1 for nickel,
and 140  jug/1 for manganese were reported.  Zinc, iron, and
copper had a relatively high percentage of removal in
biological treatment plants.  Effluent concentrations of up
to 277 ;ig/l for zinc, 1827 *ig/l for iron,, and 113 jug/1 for
copper were reported.  These data would tend to indicate
that iron,  zinc and copper are most susceptible to removal
in conventional treatment facilities, while cadmium, nickel
and manganese are the least susceptible of the metals to
removal.

     The removal of pollutant parameters related to organic
pollution,  total phosphorus, kjeldahl nitrogen, ammonia, and
phenolics in primary plants was on the order of 13 to 38
percent.   Maximum reported effluent concentrations were
13 mg/1  for P-TOT,  22 mg/1 for TKN, 20 mg/1 for NH-, and
16 jug/1  for phenolics.  In biological plants, the   removals
for these parameters ranged from 32 to 65 percent.  Maximum
reported effluent concentrations were 7 mg/1 for P-TOT,
18 mg/1  for TKN, 14 mg/1 for NH.,, and 2.5 to 175 ;ag/l for
phenolics.   Mean values for biological treatment plants'
effluent phenolics concentration is distorted by some extremely
high concentrations for a few plants.

     The removal of the more general parameters of pollution,
TOC, COD,  SS,  and BOD in primary plants was 18 to 51 percent.
Effluent concentrations of up to 142 mg/1 for TOC, 346 mg/1
                             F-ll

-------
for COD, 93 mg/1 for SS, and 167 mg/1 for BOD were reported.
Removals of these parameters in biological plants ranged from
69 to 81 percent/ with effluent concentrations of up to 45
mg/1 for TOC, 11 mg/1 for COD, 40 mg/1 for SS, and 39 mg/1
for BOD.

    Evaluation  of Limited Data

    Table F-5 is a summary of removal and effluent data for
oil and grease, cyanide  (total), and hexavalent chromium in
primary and biological treatment plants.  The data presented
for oil and grease is a combination of the original oil and
grease data obtained by three distinct analytical methods.

    Of these parameters, oil and grease removal was most
significant, with approximately 50 percent removal achieved
in primary plants, and 68-83 percent removal obtained in
biological plants.  It was noted that for the limited number of
plants reporting oil and grease data, a high level of BOD and
suspended solids removal was also achieved in these facilities.
Consequently, the oil and grease removal data presented is
indicative of a well operated and efficient biological treatment
system.  For the plants reporting oil and grease data, pass
through was 25.0 - 27.8 mg/1 in primary plants, and 9.0-21.0
mg/1 in biological treatment plants.

    Removal of cyanide and hexavalent chromium was reported
only by biological treatment facilities.  Removal varied from
3 to 29 percent and 0 to 18 percent respectively, thus
indicating only incidental removal of these pollutants in
biological treatment plants.  Corresponding effluent values
were 0.01 to 3.7 mg/1 for cyanide and 10 to 15 jug/1 for hexa-
valent chromium.  As a result of the limited number of plants
reporting oil and grease, cyanide and hexavalent chromium data,
this information should not be considered conclusive, but rather
indicative of the performance of similar treatment facilities.

    A limited amount of data was also reported on biological
treatment plants with chemical addition, and tertiary plants.
Table F-6 summarizes this data with mean and median values for
removal reported, along with the number of plants reporting
data.  Again, no attempt was made to characterize the perfor-
mance of these  plants due to the limited extent of the data
base.  Nevertheless, the table confirms the expected general
improved removal of metals experienced in plants utilizing
chemical addition.

     Correlation Analyses

     Correlation analyses were performed to determine the
degree of linear relationship for influent concentration ver-
sus percent removal, suspended solids removal versus percent
removal,  influent pH versus percent removal, and influent
concentration versus effluent concentration for nine metal
parameters. Table F-7 is a summary of the correlation coeffi-
cients obtained.  Of the four relationships investigated, only
influent  concentration versus effluent concentration exhibited
a consistently high degree of correlation.  This relationship
was therefore pursued further in the regression analyses
which follow.

     The  possibility of a linear relationship with log com-
binations for influent concentration versus percent removal,
suspended solids removal versus percent removal, and influent
pH versus percent removal for cadmium, chromium, and lead
was investigated in Table F-8.  No consistent high degree of
correlation was exhibited in this analysis.

     Regression Analyses

     Polynomial regression analyses were performed to deter-
mine the  line of best fit for the reported data in the
relationship of influent concentration to effluent concen-
tration.  ' The regression equation along with the standard
error of  estimate (Se), the standard deviation for effluent
concentrations reported (Ys), and the maximum and minimum
reported  influent concentrations  (X max, X min) is presented
in Table  FT 9 for nine total metals' parameters.  Three to
six degrees of polynomial regression were examined for each
parameter, with the selection of regression equations based
on the minimum reasonable  Se/Ys  ratio.

     Taking into account the standard error of estimate, and
within the limits of influent concentrations X max, and X min,
the regression equations in Table F-9 may be utilized to
estimate  an effluent concentration from a given influent con-
centration, or conversely to estimate an influent concen-
tration from a given effluent limitation.

                         GLOSSARY
Acclimatization (Acclimation)  - A process by which the bio-
logical organisms in a biological treatment system develop
the capability of maintaining normal life cycles in the
presence of concentrations of pollutants that would normally
inhibit their activity.

Antagonism - Reduction of the inhibitory effect of one sub-
stance by the presence of another.

Compatible Pollutant - A pollutant which is normally treated
by conventional biological sewage treatment processes.

Contribution (Contributors) - A point source originating
within the area served by a sewerage system and treatment
works.

Existing Source - Any wastewater source, which was contri-
buting to a sewerage system, (or a potential source that was
under construction), at the time of publication of proposed
regulations.

Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 -
Public Law 92-500 which provides the legal authority for
current EPA water pollution abatement projects, regulations
and policies.

Incompatible Pollutant - Any pollutant which is not normally
treated by conventional biological sewage treatment processes

Industrial Waste Ordinance - An enforceable local law which
establishes rules, regulations, limitations and prohibitions
to be adhered to by wastewater sources within the service
area of a publicly owned sewer system.

Inhibition - A contribution that decreases the pollution
removal efficiency of a biological treatment facility.

Interference - A contribution that hinders in any way the
operation of a wastewater  collection and treatment system.
Inhibition can be considered a type of interference.

Joint Treatment - The treatment of a wastewater consisting
of a combination of domestic and industrial flows in a
single treatment system which has been specifically designed
to handle the combined wastewater.
                            G-l

 Limited Waste - A waste, which by either local ordinance or
Federal regulation, cannot be present in a contribution or
direct discharge above a certain concentration.

Major Contributing Industry (MCI) - A major source of
industrial wastewater within a POTW system, as defined in
the Federal pretreatment standards.

Monitoring - The practice of investigating, surveying and/
or sampling wastewater sources in an effort to obtain infor-
mation on the quality or quantity of the wastewater flow.

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) -
A system of permits to discharge wastewaters to navigable

Law 92-500.  The permit system has as its objectives the
achievements of the goal of that law, the elimination of
the discharge of pollutants by 1985.

New Source - A wastewater source for which construction
began after the publication of proposed regulations.

Pass Through - The discharge to the receiving waters from
a publicly owned treatment works of a pollutant without sub-
stantial modification or removal.

Pretreatment - The treatment of a wastewater contribution,
at the point of origin, prior to release to a publicly owned
treatment system.

Prohibited Waste - A material which must be excluded from
any discharge of wastewater to a collection system in any
concentration.  Prohibited wastes include, among others,
explosive or corrosive materials.

Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) - A sewerage facility
which collects,treats or otherwise disposes of waste-
waters, owned and operated by a village, town, county,
authority or other public agency.

Synergism - An increase in the inhibitory effect of one
substance caused by the presence of another.

Upset - A substantial decrease in the treatment efficiency
of a biological treatment system caused by changes in the
life cycles of the biological organisms comprising the
system.

PART 128—PRETREATMENT STANDARDS
  On July  19. 1973, notice was  pub-
lished in the FEDERAL REGISTER  that the
Environmental Protection Agency  was
proposing standards for pretreatment of
pollutants   introduced   into   publicly
owned treatment works pursuant to sec-
tion 307 (b)  of the Federal Water Pollu-
tion Control Act Amendments of 1972
(the Act>. Written comments on the pro-
posed rulemaking  were  invited and re-
ceived from  interested parties  and the
public. In addition, a public hearing was
held in Washington, D.C., on September .
26,  1973. The Environmental Protection
Agency has carefully considered all com-
ments received and the record of the
public hearing.  All  written comments
and a transcript of  the public hearing
are on file with the Agency. As indicated
below, the regulation has been modified
in response to some of  the comments.
The following discussion also  outlines
the reasons why other suggested changes
were not made.
  Under section 307 (b) of the Act. Fed-
eral pretreatment standards are designed
to achieve two purposes: <1> To protect
the operation of  publicly owned treat-
ment works, and (2)" to prevent the dis-
charge of pollutants which pass through
such works inadequately treated.
  Section 128.131 sets forth a number of
prohibitions designed to protect the op-
eration  of  publicly  owned  treatment
works.  The  prohibitions are  self-ex-
planatory.  One commenter suggested
that § 128.131 is deficient in that it fails
to impose specific numerical limitations
on  the discharge of pollutants  that in-
terfere  with the operation of  publicly
owned  treatment  works. However, the
Agency has been unable to formulate
such specific numerical limitations. In
the  first  place,  the  data that  are
 presently available are  not considered
 sufficient to support uniform  national
 standards prescribing permissible con-
 centrations  of particular pollutants  in
 publicly owned treatment works. More-
 over, the degree that any pollutant in-
 terferes with the operation of a publicly
 owned treatment works depends  on
 the  concentration  of  pollutant   in
 the  treatment  works  Itself,  rather
 than the  concentration  in each user's
 effluent. But for a  national  pretreat-
 ment standaard  to be workable and
 enforceable, it must prescribe the qual-
 ity of the user's effluent; otherwise, the
 user will not know what steps he must
 take to comply with the standard. It is
 impossible  in a uniform national pre-
 treatment standard to relate the quality
 of the user's effluent to the concentration
 of  various  pollutants  in  the  publicly
 owned treatment works, since  this rela-
 tionship  will vary in each sewer system
 depending on the quantity of the user's
 effluent as compared with the quantity of
 other effluents in the system.
  Section 128.133 is based on the premise
that pollutants which pass through pub-
licly owned treatment works in amounts
greater  than would  be  permitted  as a
minimum  treatment requirement for
similar industrial sources discharging di-
rectly to navigable waters should be con-
sidered adequately treated. The fact that
a discharger chooses to  use a municipal
sewer system, rather than discharging
his wastes  directly to  the  navigable
waters, should not as a matter of general
principle involve  a penalty to  the en-
vironment.
  On  the basis of this premise, § 128.133
requires  users in industrial  categories
subject to effluent guidelines issued under
section  304(b)  of the  Act, which are
discharging incompatible pollutants to
publicly  owned   treatment works,  to
adopt best practicable control technol-
ogy currently available, as defined by the
Administrator pursuant to section 304
(b) of the Act.
  During the public comment  period.
questions were raised as to whether the
effluent  limitations  guidelines would be
appropriate in all  cases for application to
users   of  publicly  owned  treatment
works. The. Agency recognizes that  for
some  industrial  categories  it  may be
necessary to further refine the effluent
limitations guidelines to deal with prob-
lems that may arise in the application of
such  guidelines  to users of  publicly
owned treatment  works.  However, the
Agency believes that any adjustments re-
quired for  particular industrial catego-
ries should be considered in connection
with the promulgation of the individual
effluent guidelines, rather than in the na-
tional pretreatment standard.  Accord-
ingly, when effluent limitations guidelines
are promulgated for individual industrial
categories, the Agency will also propose
a separate provision for their application
to users of  publicly owned  treatment
works.  Additional  language  has  been
added to 5 128.133 to clarify this intent.
  It was unclear whether § 128.133 as
proposed covered sources that would be
new sources if they were discharging di-
rectly into the navigable waters. Section
307 (c) of the Act requires promulgation
of separate pretreatment standards for
such sources. Pursuant to section 307(c),
the Agency has  proposed pretreatment
standards for such sources in connection
with its proposal of new source perform-
ance  standards under Section 306 of the
Act. Accordingly,  I 128.133 has been mod-
ified  to make it clear that it covers only
sources that are  not subject to section
307(O of the Act.
   Section 128.133 allows a credit for the
percentage removal of  an incompatible
pollutant to which the publicly  owned
treatment works is committed in its per-
mit. To insure the basis for allowing such
credit; a commitment with respect to  a
percentage removal of  an incompatible
pollutant will be included in the permit
at the  request of a municipality where
a basis for such commitment  can be
demonstrated.
   Some commenters suggested that the
credit in  5 128.133  for removal at  the
joint treatment works, where there is a
commitment  to  such  removal  in the
NPDES permit, is unrealistic, since mu-
nicipalities will be unwilling to enter into
such commitments. However, in order to
achieve the goal of preventing the dis-
charge   of    incompatible   pollutants
through municipal systems in amounts
greater than the minimum requirements
if  the  discharge were  directly  into the
navigable waters, it is necessary that the
required reduction be  contained in an
enforceable commitment either  on the
part of the industrial  user or the joint
treatment works.  The industrial user
should not be relieved of the  commit-
ment to achieve the required  degree  of
reduction  except to the extent that the
joint treatment works  is able to assume
a commitment to remove the  pollutant.
  One commenter suggested  that users
should be required to comply with toxic
effluent standards under section 307 (a)
of the Act, as well as the requirement of
best practicable  control technology cur-
rently available under section 301 (b) and
304(b) of the Act. However, toxic effluent
standards will be designed  to protect
aquatic life  in  the receiving body  of
water from both acute and chronic ef-
fects. Acute effects will  be covered  by
concentration standards while  chronic
effects will be covered  by weight limita-
tions. Both  types of standards will  be
applicable to the discharge from the pub-
licly owned treatment works. Toxic efflu-
ent standards will  not be designed  to
protect sewer systems,  and thus it  would
not be appropriate to apply them to dis-
charges into  the system. To the extent
that toxic materials  in the  users' dis-
charges interfere with the operation of
publicly owned treatment  works,  the
problem can be  otherwise  addressed
under these  standards  (§ 128.131)  or
under local standards using the pretreat-
ment  guidelines issued  under section
304(f) of the Act. While toxic materials
hi the  users'  discharge may  appear in
the  sludge  generated by  the publicly
owned treatment works, the Agency has
no basis for making a national deter-
mination  that the resultant sludge dis-
posal problem is  any worse than  the
problem that would  be  created if  the'
individual users removed the toxics from
their effluent and disposed of the result-
ant  materials individually.  This  is  a
factor  which must  be determined  by
State and local  authorities, taking into
account the capabilities of their sludge
disposal system and the pollutants pres-
ent in the wastes from industrial users.
   The  presence of toxic pollutants  in
toxic amounts is utilized in the regula-
tion in order to identify  "major con-
tributing industries" for purposes of the
pretreatment  requirements  for incom-
patible pollutants. The purpose here is to
identify industrial users whose effluent
is significant enough to warrant the im-
position of controls based on best prac-
ticable control  technology  currently
available  without undue administrative
burden, rather than to indicate that it
is appropriate to impose toxic effluent
standards on industrial users.

  The definition of "compatible pollut-
ant" has been  broadened  to  recognize
the fact that some joint treatment works
are designed to achieve substantial  re-
moval of pollutants other than the four
pollutants listed in the definition in  the
proposed  regulation (BOD,  suspended
solids, pH, and  fecal coliform bacterial.
Where the  joint  treatment works  was
designed to and does achieve substantial
removal of a pollutant, it is not appropri-
ate to require the  industrial user  to
achieve  best  practicable control tech-
nology currently  available,  since  this
would lead  to an uneconomical duplica-
tion  of treatment facilities.  While  the
term "substantial removal" is  not sub-
ject to precise definition, it generally con-
templates  removals in the order of 80
percent or greater. Minor incidental re-
movals in the order of 10 to 30 percent
are not considered "substantial".
  There was a diversity of comments on
the length  of  the time for compliance
and its relation to the promulgation of
the definition of best practicable control
technology  currently available. The  Act
requires that pretreatment must specify
a time for compliance not to exceed three
years from the date of promulgation. The
Agency has concluded that a period not
greater than three years from the  date
of promulgation is appropriate for com-
pliance for § 128.131. For Section 128.13S
the same period is also considered an ap-
propriate time for compliance. However,
the standard set forth in  § 128.133  will
not be complete  until promulgation of
the separate provision, as required by
Section 128.133, setting forth the applica-
tion  to  pretreatment  of  the effluent
limitations  guideline  for  a  given  in-
dustrial category.
   Accordingly.  § 128,140  provide*   that
the period  of  compliance with § 128.133
will not commence for any  particular
category of user until promulgation of
that  separate provision.  Section 128.140
has been further modified to establish an
interim requirement for commencement
of construction, and a requirement for
compliance reports. It was concluded that
without such requirements, timely com-
pliance with the pretreatment standard
might be unenforceable  as  a practical
matter.
   Some commenters questioned the need
for these pretreatment standards or the
relationship bet-ween these standards and
local pretreatment programs. It is im-
portant to note the clear requirements in
the Act that there be both national pre-
treatment standards. Federally enforce-
able, and EPA pretreatment guidelines to
assist  States   and  municipalities in
 developing local pretreatment programs.
The Agency recognizes that in some cases,
 these pretreatment standards may not be
sufficient to protect  the  operation  of a
 publicly owned treatment works or to
 enable the treatment works to comply
 with the terms of its NPDES permit. This
 may be the case,  for example, when the
 terms of  the permit  for the publicly
 owned treatment works a,re dictated by
 water quality  standards or toxic stand-
 ards. In such cases, the State or munici-
 pality may have to impose more stringent
pretreatment standards  under State or
local  laws than  are  specified in these
regulations  to  enable compliance  with
NPDES permits issued to publicly owned
treatment works.  The agency considers it
essential  that  such local  pretreatment
requirements be established for each sys-
tem  where necessary to ensure compli-
ance with the NPDES permit.
  Pretreatment guidelines will  be  pub-
lished, pursuant to section 304(f > of the
Act. to assist the States  and municipali-
ties in establishing their own pretreat-
ment requirements.
  Effective date. This regulation will be-
come effective  December 10, 1973.

 that  the  Environmental   Protection
 Agency (EPA or Agency) was proposing
.regulations concerning  the  application
 of effluent limitations guidelines for ex-
 isting sources  to  pretreatment stand-
 ards.
  The purpose of this notice is to estab-
 lish final  pretreatment  standards for
 selected subcategories of existing sources
 within the dairy products processing in-
 dustry point source category (40 CFR
 Part 405); grain mills point source cate-
 gory (40  CFR Part 406);  canned and
 preserved fruits and vegetables process-
 ing point  source category (40 CFR Part
 407); canned  and  preserved seafood
 processing point source category (40 CFR
 Part 408); beet sugar processing point
 source subcategory  (40 CFR Part 409)-;
 liquid and crystalline cane sugar refining
 subcategory (40 CFR Part 409); cement
 manufacturing point source category (40
 CFR Part 411); feedlots point  source
 category  (40 CFR  Part 412); organic
 chemicals  manufacturing point  source
 category (40 CFR Part 414); soap and
 detergent  manufacturing point  source
 category (40 CFR Part 417); glass man-
 ufacturing point source categories  (40
 CFR Part 426); asbestos manufacturing
 point source category (40 CFR Part 427);
 pulp, paper and paperboard point source
 category  (40 CFR  Part 430); builders
 paper and roofing  felt segment  of the
 builders paper  and board  mills  point
 source  category (40 CFR  Part  431);
 and the meat products point source cate-
 gory (40 CFR Part 432) which discharge
 to publicly owned treatment works.
   Pending further study, final pretreat-
 ment standards for existing sources for
 the following industrial subcategories
 will be promulgated by the Agency hi the
 near future:  In the organic chemicals
 manufacturing point source category (40
 CFR Part 414), product-process sub-
 category groups C2 (phenol and ace-
 tone—cumene process), C3  (bisphenol
 A). and C4 (p-cresol); in the soap and
 detergent manufacturing  point  source
 category (40 CFR Part  417), manufac-
 ture of spray dried detergents, manufac-
 ture of liquid detergents, manufacturing
 of detergents by dry blending, and man-
 ufacture of drum dried detergents sub-
categories; and In the glass manufactur-
ing point source categories (40 CFR Part
426), automotive glass laminating and
float glass manufacturing subcategories.
  This final rulemaklng is promulgated
pursuant to section 307 
-------
                                             RULES AND REGULATIONS

cold weather these warm discharges can
actually prove beneficial to the biological
systems In the treatment plant.
  (6) Several commenters  had no ob-
jections to the  pretreatment standards
for existing sources proposed.
LIQUID AND CRYSTALLINE CANE SUGAR BE-
 PININC SUBCATEGORY  (40 CFR PART 409)
  (7) One commenter expressed concern
regarding the extremely high concentra-
tions of BODS and TSS In the filter cake
slurry  waste water.
  Although the filter cake blurry waste
water stream is considered to be highly
amenable to  treatment, the extremely
high concentrations of BODS and TSS
therein could, in some cases, interfere
with the  operation of publicly owned
treatment works. These special situations
should be controlled by the  operators of
the treatment works Involved. Such con-
trol should not pose undue difficulty since
the highly concentrated waste can be dry
handled and disposed of as solid waste by
the publicly owned treatment works. Any
discharger whose waste causes an upset
or interferes with the operation or per-
formance of the publicly owned treat-
ment works shall be in violation of the
prohibited wastes section (128.131) of the
general pretreatment regulation (40 CFR
128).
 CEMENT MANUFACTURING POINT SOURCE
      CATEGORY  (40 CFR PART 411)
  (8) A comment was received concern-
ing the temperature parameter for Oils
industry.
  Heat losses and dilation hi the biter-
ceptor systems will generally effectively
reduce  any  thermal  discharges  from
these plants. Those discharges which
may reach a  treatment facility  at a
slightly higher than  ambient tempera-
ture will enhance the biological activity
in the treatment works. This is a highly
desirable effect during cold weather.
    FEEDLOTS POINT  SOURCE CATEGORY
           (40 CFR PART 412)
  (9) No comments were received.

ORGANIC CHEMICALS MANUFACTURING POINT
  SOURCE CATEGORY (40 CFR  PABT 414)
  (10)  Some commenters .Indicated that
there may be other pollutants  in the
waste water  from this industry besides
BODS, TSS and pH.
  The  Agency is aware that the waste
water from this industry is composed of
many varied  and complex  compounds.
The operators of municipal treatment
works  are  warned that  though  these
wastes are  usually organic  in nature,
caution should be exercised  in treating
these waste waters to assure that they do
not interfere with the operation or per-
formance  of the publicly owned treat-
ment works.
SOAP  AND   DETERGENT  MANUFACTURING
  POINT SOURCE CATEGORY (40 CFR  PART
  417)
  (11)  Several  commenters  expressed
their belief that the oil and  grease dis-
charged by this Industry Is amenable to
treatment hi publicly owned treatment
works.
  The Agency concurs that the oils and
greases of animal or vegetable origin can
be treated in a properly operated pub-
licly owned treatment works. Excessive
discharges of oil and grease may upset
or interfere with the operation or per-
formance of the publicly owned  treat-
ment works. Such  excessive  discharges
would be in violation of the prohibited
wastes section (§ 128.131) of the general
pretreatment  regulation  (40  CFR Part
128).
  GLASS MANUFACTURING  POINT SOURCE
     CATEGORIES (40 CFR PART 428)
  (12) No comments were received con-
cerning the subcategories being consid-
ered for promulgation.
ASBESTOS  MANUFACTURING POINT SOURCE
      CATEGORY  (40 CFR  PABT 487)
  (13) One commenter was concerned
with the  disposal of  sludges containing
asbestos fibers.
  Waste from this industry category can
contain large amounts of asbestos  fibers.
These wastes should not be Introduced
into (1) publicly-owned treatment works
whose effluents  could affect a potable
water  supply  or  (2)  publicly-owned
treatment works that dispose of sludges
without adequate safeguards to prevent
land  migration of  contaminants  to
ground or surface  waters. Sites should
be selected that have natural soil and
geographical conditions to prevent such
contamination or, if  such conditions  do
not  exist, artificial means (e.g. liners)
must be  provided  to insure long-term
protection. Where  such  control is not
provided  for sludges  containing signifi-
cant Quantities  of  asbestos fibers, they
should be excluded "from the municipal
sludge and disposed of separately  under
controlled conditions.

   PULP,  PAPER AND PAPERBOARD POINT
  SOURCE  CATEGORY  (40 CFR PART ««)

  (14) No comments  were received.
BUILDERS PAPER AND ROOFING FELT SEGMENT
  OF THE BUILDERS PAPER AND BOARD MILLS
POINT SOURCE CATEGORY (40 CFR PART 341)
  (15) Several comments were  received
questioning the necessity of a settleable
solids limitation in addition to a sus-
pended solids limitation.
  Settleable solids are those  suspended
solids which settle  out in one  hoar  or
less. Since this type of solids is present
in all  municipal and domestic wastes,
they are readily treated in the  primary
units of a municipal treatment facility
and therefore no limitation is established
for  this  parameter  in this  regulation.
The necessity of both a suspended solids
and a settleable solids limitation is aimed
primarily  at direct dischargers to pre-
vent the  build-up of delta like forma-
tions in navigable waters at the  point
of  discharge.  Any  discharger  whose
waste causes an upset or interferes with
the  operation  or performance of the
publicly owned treatment works  shall  be
in violation of the prohibited wastes sec-
tion (§ 128.131) of the general pretreat-
ment regulation (40 CFR Part 128).
  MEAT PRODUCTS POINT SOURCE CATEGORY
           (40 CFR PART 432)
   (16) Several  commenters  indicated
that  excessive discharges  of oil  and
grease may  pass  through  or interfere
with the operation of a publicly owned
treatment works.
   Oil and grease, particularly of animal
and vegetable origin, can be treated by
biological techniques in a publicly owned
treatment works. Operators are warned
that  excessive discharges  of oil  and
grease which would  upset  or interfere
with the operation or. performance of a
publicly owned treatment works  would
be in violation of the prohibited  waste
section (§28.131)  of  the  general pre-
treatment regulation (40 CFR Part 128).
     IB) REVISION OF THE PROPOSED
   REGULATION PRIOR TO PROMULGATION

   No substantive  changes  have  been
made from the proposed regulations ex-
cept the format has been  changed for
clarification  of the. pretreatment stand-
ards.

   PART  133—SECONDARY  TREATMENT
             INFORMATION
   On April 30,1973, notice was published
 in the FEDERAL REGISTER  that the En-
 vironmental Protection Agency was pro-
 posing information on secondary treat-
 ment pursuant to  section  304(di(l)  of
 the  Federal  Water  Pollution  Control
 Act  Amendments  of  1972  (the  Act).
 Reference should be made to the  pre-
 amble of the proposed rulemaking for a
 description of the purposes and intended
 use of the regulation.
   Written comments on the  proposed
 rulemaking  were  invited  and received
 from  interested parties. The  Environ-
 mental  Protection  Agency  has care-
 fully considered all comments received.
 All written comments are on file with the
 Agency.
   The regulation has been reorganized
 and   rewritten   to  improve  clarity.
 Major changes that were made as a re-
 sult  of  comments  received are sum-
 marized below:
   (a)  The  terms  "1-week"  and  "1-
 month"  as  used  in I 133.102  (a)  and
 (b)  of the proposed rulemaking  have
 been changed to 7 consecutive days and
 30  consecutive days  respectively  (See
 I 133.102 (a), (b),and (c) ).
  (b) Some comments indicated that the
 proposed  rulemaking appeared to re-
 quire 85 percent removal of biochemical
 oxygen demand and suspended  solids
 only in cases when a treatment works
 would treat a substantial portion of ex-
 tremely high strength industrial  waste
 (See 5 133.102(g)  of the  proposed rule-
 making) . The intent was that in no case
 should the percentage removal of bio-
chemical oxygen demand  and suspended
solids in a 30 day period be less than 85
percent.  This has been clarified in  the
regulation. In addition, it has been ex-
pressed as percent remaining rather than
percent removal  calculated  using  the
 arithmetic means of the  values for in-
fluent and effluent samples collected in
a 30 day period (See § 133.102(a) and
 (b)).
  (c)  Comments were  made as to  the
difficulty of achieving 85 percent removal
of biochemical oxygen demand and sus-
uended  solids during wet  weather  for
 treatment works  receiving flows  from
combined sewer  systems.  Recognizing
this,  a  paragraph  was  added which
will allow waiver or adjustment of that
requirement  on  a  case-by-case  basis
 (See{ 133.103i a».
    The definition of a 24-hour com-
 posite  sample (See  § 133.102(c) of  the
proposed rulemaking)  was deleted from
 the regulation. The sampling require-
 ments for publicly owned  treatment
works will be established In  guidelines
 issued pursuant to sections 304(g> and
 402 of the Act.
  (e)  In f 133.103 of the  proposed rule-
 making, It was recognized that secondary
 treatment processes are subject to upsets
 over which little or no control may be
 exercised. This provision  has been de-
 leted. It is no longer considered necessary
 in this regulation since procedures for
 notice and review of upset Incidents will
 be included  in discharge permits Issued
 pursuant to section 402 of the Act.
   (f)  Paragraph  (f) of § 133.102 of the
 proposed rulemaking, which  relates to
 treatment works which receive substan-
 tial portions of high strength industrial
 wastes, has been rewritten for clarity. In
 addition, a  provision  has been added
 which  limits the use of the upwards ad-
 justment provision to only  those cases in
 which the flow or loading from an indus-
 try  category exceeds 10 percent of the
 design flow or loading of the treatment
 works. This intended to reduce or elimi-
 nate the administrative burden which
 would  be involved In making inslgnifl-
. cant  adjustments in  the  biochemical
 oxygen demand  and suspended solids
 criteria (See  5 133.103(b)).
   The   major  comments  for  which
 changes were not made  are discussed
 below:
   (a)  Comments  were received which
 recommended that the regulation be
 written to allow effluent limitations to be
 based on the treatment necessary to meet
 water  quality standards. No change has
 been made in the regulations because tho
 Act  and  its  legislative history clearly
 show that the regulation is to be based
 on the capabilities of secondary treat-
 ment technology and not ambient water
 quality effects.
   (b)  A number of  comments were re-
 ceived which  pointed out that waste sta-
 bilization ponds alone are not generally
 capable of achieving the proposed efflu-
ent quality in terms of suspended solids
and  fecal conform bacteria. A few com-
menters expressed the opposite view. The
Agency is of the opinion that with proper
design (including solids separation proc-
esses and disinfection in some cases)  and
operation, the level of effluent quality
specified can be  achieved with waste
stabiUzation ponds. A technical bulletin
will be published in the near future which
will provide guidance on the design and
operation of waste stabilization ponds.
   (c) Disinfection must be employed hi
order to achieve the fecal coliform bac-
teria levels specified. A few commenters
argued that disinfectant is not a second-
ary treatment process and therefore the
fecal  colifonn  bacteria  requirements
should  be deleted. No changes were made
because disinfection is considered by the
Agency to be an  important element of
secondary treatment which Is necessary
for protection  of  public  health  (See
S 133.102(0).

ment works which  receive  flows  from
combined sewers (sewers which are de-
signed to  transport both storm  water
and sanitary sewage).  For such  treat-
ment works, the  decision must be made
on a case-by-case  basis  as  to whether
my attainable percentage removal level
can be defined, and if so, what that level
should be.
     RULES AND REGULATIONS

  (b) Industrial wastes. For certain in-
dustrial categories, the discharge to nav-
igable waters of biochemical oxygen de-
mand  and  suspended solids permitted
under sections 301 (b) (1) (A) (1)  or 306 of
the Act may be less stringent than the
values  given in  paragraphs (a)(l). and
(b) (1) of § 133.102. In cases when wastes
would be introduced from such an indus-
trial  category  into  a publicly owned
treatment works, the values for biochemi-
cal oxygen demand and suspended solids
in  paragraphs  (aHl)  and  (b)(l)  of
§ 133.102 may be adjusted upwards  pro-
vided that:  (1) the permitted discharge
of such  pollutants, attributable to the
industrial category, would not be greater
than that  which would  be permitted
under  sections 301(b) (1) (a) (i) or 306
of the Act  if such industrial  category
were to discharge directly into the navi-
gable waters, and (2) the flow or loading
                               22299

of such pollutants introduced by the in-
dustrial category exceeds  10  percent of
the design flow or loading of the publicly
owned treatment works. When such an
adjustment is made, the values for bio-
chemical oxygen demand  or suspended
solids in paragraphs (a) (2)  and (b>(2>
of § 133.102 should  be adjusted propor-
tionally.
§ 133.101   Sampling and tot procedure*.

  (a) Sampling  and test procedures for
pollutants listed in  § 133.102  shall be in
accordance with guidelines promulgated
by  the Administrator pursuant  to sec-
tions 304ig) and 402 of the Act.
  (b) Chemical  oxygen demand (COD>
or total organic carbon (TOO may be
substituted for biochemical oxygen •de-
mand  (BOD)  when a long-term BOD:
COD or BOD:TOC  correlation has been
demonstrated.

     An  ordinance establishing rules and regulations for the
discharge  of wastewaters from industrial users into the publicly
owned sewerage facilities of (	) ,  including provisions
for sampling and flow measurement of such wastewaters, prohibi-
tions and  limitations on the use of the publicly owned sewerage
facilities,  requirements for pretreatment where necessary to
meet the prohibitions and limitations set forth herein, and
where applicable, procedures for obtaining permits for the
discharge  of wastewaters by industrial users into the publicly
owned sewerage system and reporting by industry on the use of
the publicly owned facilities.

1.0  Purpose

     The purpose of this ordinance is to provide for the use
of the publicly owned sewerage facilities by industries
located  within the area served by the (	) (enter
applicable designation - City, County, District, Authority,
etc.) without damage to the physical facilities, without
impairment of their normal function of collecting, treating
and discharging domestic wastewaters from the area served
by the (	) , and without the discharge by the publicly
owned treatment works of pollutants which would be in violation
of its permitted discharge under the applicable rules and
regulations of state and federal regulatory agencies.

1.1  Legislative Background

     The publicly owned treatment works of the  (	)
are operating under a permit issued by the  (          )(enter
EPA or State Agency) under the National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System as provided for in Section 402 of
Public Law 92-500.  The permit requires discharges from the
treatment  works of the  (	) to conform to certain
specific limitations as to the quantity of pollutants which
may be discharged by the treatment works.  Wastewaters from
industrial users conveyed into the publicly owned sewerage
facilities are further provided for under Section 307 of
PL 92-500  and under rules and regulations contained in the
Code of  Federal Regulations promulgated in implementation of
that Section.

     The operation of the publicly owned treatment works is
also under the jurisdiction of the  (	)  (enter State

charged into the (	) sewerage facilities or any con-
nected treatment facilities any waste which contains any
of the following:

3.1.1 Oils and Grease

       Wastewaters at a flow rate which is excessive rela-
tive to the capacity of the treatment works and which would
cause  a treatment process upset and subsequent loss of
treatment efficiency; or wastewaters containing such concen-
trations or quantities of pollutants that their introduction
into the treatment works over a relatively short time period,
(sometimes referred to as slug discharges) would cause a
treatment process upset and subsequent loss of treatment
efficiency.

3.1.8   Toxic Substances

       Any toxic substances, chemical elements or compounds,
phenols or other taste- or odor-producing substances, or any
other  substances which may interfere with the biological

4.0     Control of Prohibited Wastes

4.1     Regulatory Actions

       If wastewaters containing any substance described in
section 3 of this Ordinance are discharged or proposed to be
discharged into the sewer system of the (	) or to
any sewer system tributory thereto, the (	) may take
any action necessary to:

       A.  Prohibit the discharge of such wastewater.
                           3-7

-------
        B.  Require a discharger to demonstrate that in-plant
modifications will eliminate the discharge of such substances
to a degree as to be acceptable to the (	.).

        C.  Require pretreatment including storage facilities,
or flow equalization necessary to reduce or eliminate the
objectionable characteristics or substances so that the dis-
charge will not violate these rules and regulations.

        D.  Require the person or local government unit making,
causing or allowing the discharge to pay any added cost of
handling and treating excess loads imposed on the sewerage
facilities.

        E.  Take such other remedial action as may be deemed
to be desirable or necessary to achieve the purpose of this
ordinance.

4.2     Submission of Plans

        Where pretreatment or equalization of wastewater flows
prior to discharge into any part of its sewerage facilities
is required by the (	), plans, specifications and
other pertinent data or information relating to such pre-
treatment or flow-control facilities shall be submitted to
the (	)  for review and approval.  Approval shall in
no way exempt the discharge or such facilities from compli-
ance with any applicable code, ordinance, rule or regulation
of any governmental unit or the (	) .  Any subsequent
alterations or additions to such pretreatment or flow-control
facilities shall not be made without due notice to, and approval
of the (	) .

4.3     Pretreatment Facilities Operations

        If pretreatment or control of waste flows is required,
such facilities shall be effectively operated and maintained
by the owner at his expense, subject to the requirements of
these rules and regulations and all other applicable codes,
ordinances, and laws.

4.4     Admission to Property

        Whenever it shall be necessary for the purposes of
these rules and regulations, the Manager may immediately
enter upon any property upon presentation of credentials,
for the purpose of obtaining information or conducting surveys
or investigations.  Entry shall normally be made during day-
light or operating hours.  However, the Manager reserves the


                            3-8

-------
right to enter upon the property at any hour of any day the
Manager deems necessary as a result of abnormal or emergency
circumstances.

4.5     Reporting of Accidental Discharges

       If an accidental discharge of prohibited or regulated
pollutants to the sewerage facilities should occur, the in-
dustrial facility responsible for such discharge shall im-
mediately notify the Manager so that corrective action may be
taken to protect the sewerage facilities.  In addition, a
written report addressed to the Manager detailing the date,
time and cause of the accidental discharge/ the quantity and
characteristics of the discharge and corrective action taken
to prevent future discharges, shall be filed by the respon-
sible industrial facility within (30) (optional) days of the
occurrence of the accidental discharge.

5.0     Industrial Wastewater Sampling and Analysis

5.1     Basis of Compliance Determination

5.1.1   Type of Sample

        Compliance determinations with respect to section 3
prohibitions and limitations may be made on the basis of
either instantaneous grab samples or composite samples of
industrial wastewater at the discretion of the Manager.
Composite samples may be taken over a 24 hour period, or over
a longer or shorter duration of time, as determined by the
Manager to meet the needs of specific circumstances.

5.2     Control Manhole

        Where required by the (	), industrial dis-
chargers shall install a suitable control manhole/ together
with such necessary samplers, meters, recorders and other
appurtenances to adequately sample and measure the wastes
discharged.   The control manhole shall be constructed and
operated so as to permit accurate sampling and flow measure-
ments of all wastes discharged.  Where conditions do not
permit measurement of all discharges from one industrial
facility at a single control manhole, multiple control
manholes shall be provided.  The control manhole shall be
located so as to permit unrestricted access by  (	   )
representatives, provide sufficient space for storage of
                              3-9

-------
samples and equipment and allow for accurate sampling.  The
control manhole shall be situated on the discharger's prem-
ises, but the  (	)  may, when such a location would
be impractical or cause undue hardship on the discharger,
allow the control manhole to be constructed in the public
street or sidewalk area and located so that it will not be
obstructed by landscaping or parked vehicles.  If the control
manhole is located within the discharger's fence, there
shall be accommodation to allow for access by (	)
personnel, such as a gate secured with an (	) lock.

5.3     Analysis of Industrial Wastewaters

        Laboratory analysis of industrial wastewater samples
shall be performed in accordance with the current edition
of "Standard Methods", "Methods for Chemical Analysis of
Water and Waste" published by the U. S. Environmental Pro-
tection Agency or the "Annual Book of Standards, Part 23,
Water, Atmospheric Analysis" published by the American Society
for Testing and Materials.   Analysis of those pollutants
not covered by these publications shall be performed in accord-
ance with procedures established by the (	) .

5.4     Sampling Frequency  (Optional)

        Sampling of industrial wastewater for the purpose of
compliance determination with respect to section 3 prohibitions
and limitations will be done at such random intervals as the
(	) may designate.  However, it is the intention of the
(	) to conduct compliance sampling for all major
contributive industries at least once in every(1 year)(optional)
period.

5.5     Cost of Sampling and Analysis  (optional)

        Costs incurred in connection with the first sampling
and analysis performed during any(l year)(optional) period
for the purpose of compliance determination with respect to
section 3 prohibitions and limitations will be paid by the
discharger.  The cost of any additional sampling and analysis
during this interval will be paid by the  (	) .

6.0     Industrial Discharge Permit System  (optional)

6.1     Wastewater Discharge Permits

        All major contributing industries proposing to connect
or to discharge into any (	)  sewer must obtain  a  discharge

into the sewerage facilities under the jurisdiction of the
8.0     Industrial Self-Monitoring Requirements  (optional)

        In order to effectively administer and enforce the
provisions of these regulations, the Manager may ask any
discharger to comply with any or all Of the following
requirements :

8.1     Discharge Reports

        The Manager may require discharge reports, including
but not limited to questionnaires, technical reports, sampling
reports, test analyses, and periodic reports of wastewater
discharge.
                             3-15

-------
        When a report filed by a user pursuant to this section
is not adequate in the judgment of the Manager, he may require
the user to supply such additional information as the Manager
deems necessary.

        The discharge report may include, but not be limited
to, nature of the process, volume and rates of wastewater
flow, elements, constituents, and characteristics of the
wastewater, together with any information required in an
application for a wastewater discharge permit.

8.2     Monitoring Programs

        The Manager may require of users such technical or
monitoring programs, including the submission of periodic
reports, as he deems necessary, provided that the burden,
including costs, of such programs and reports shall bear a
reasonable relationship to the need for the report and the
benefits to be obtained therefrom.  The discharger shall pay
the applicable  (	) charge for the monitoring program,
in addition to the sewage disposal and other charges established
by the  (	).

        The monitoring program may require the discharger to
conduct a sampling and analysis program of a frequency and
type specified by the Manager to demonstrate compliance with
prescribed wastewater discharge limits.  The discharger may
either:

        A.  Conduct his own sampling and analysis program
provided he demonstrates to the Manager that he has the
necessary qualifications and facilities to perform the work; or

        B.  Engage a private  laboratory,  approved by  the
Manager.

8.3     Trade Secrets

        When requested by the user furnishing a report or
permit  application or questionnaire, the portions of the
report, or other document, which might disclose trade secrets
or secret processes shall not be made available for inspection
by the  public but shall be made available to governmental
agencies for use in making studies; provided, however, that
such portions of a report, or other document, shall be avail-
able for use by the  (  	) or the State or any State
agency  in  judicial review or enforcement proceedings involving
the person furnishing the report.

-------
9.0     Procedural Clauses

9.1     Authority of the Manager

  TEST PROCEDURES FOR THE ANALY-
  SIS OF POLLUTANTS
  Notice was punished  in the FEDERAL
REGISTER issue of June 29. 1973 (38 FR
17318) at 40 CFR 130. that the Environ-
mental  Protection Agency  (EPA)  was
giving consideration  to the testing pro-
cedures  required  pursuant to  section
304(g) of the Federal Water Pollution
Control  Act  Amendments of  1972 (86
Stat. 810. et seq.. Pub. L. 92-500  (1972))
hereinafter referred to as the Act. These
considerations were given in the form of
proposed  guidelines  establishing  test
procedures.
  Section 304 (g) of the Act requires that
the  Administrator  shall  promulgate
guidelines establishing  test procedures
for the  analysis of pollutants  that shall
include factors which must be provided
in:  1, any certification pursuant to sec-
tion 401 of the Act, or 2. any permit ap-
plication pursuant to section 402 of the
Act. Such test, procedures  are to be used
bv permit applicants to demonstrate that
effluent  discharges meet applicable pol-
lutant discharge limitations, and by the
States and other enforcement activities
in routine or random monitoring of ef-
fluents  to verify  effectiveness of pollu-
tion control  measures.
  These guidelines require that discharge
measurements, including but not limited
to the pollutants and parameters listed
in Table I.  bo  performed  by the test
procedures indicated; or  under certain
circumstances by other test procedures
for analysis  that may be  more advan-
tageous  to  use. when such other test
procedures have the approval of the Re-
gional  Administrator  of the  Region
where such  discharge  will occur, and
when the Director of an approved State
National  Pollutant Discharge Elimina-
tion System (NPDES)  Program (here-
inafter  referred  to as the Director)  for
the State in which such  discharge will
occur has no objection to such approval.
  The list of test procedures in Table I
is published  herein as final rulemaking
and represents major departures from
the list of proposed test procedures which
was published  in 38 FR  17318, dated
June 29.1973. These revisions were made
after carefully considering all  written
comments which were received pertain-
ing to the proposed  test procedures. All
written comments are on  file and avail-
able for public review with the Quality
Assurance Division.  Office of Research
and Development, EPA, Washington. D.C.
  The principal revisions to the proposed
test procedures are as follows:
   1. Where several  reliable test proce-
dures for analysis  are  available from
the given references for a given pollutant
or  parameter, each such  test  procedure
has been approved for use for making
 the measurements required by  sections
401 and 402 and related sections of the
 Act. Approved test procedures have been
selected to assure an acceptable level of
intercomparability  of  pollutants  dis-
charge data. For several pollutants and
parameters it has still been necessary to
approve only a single test procedure to
assure this level of acceptability. This is
a major departure from the proposed
test  procedures which  would have re-
quired the  use of a single  reference
method for each pollutant or parameter.
  2.  Under certain circumstances a test
procedure not  shown on the approved
list may  be considered  by an applicant
to be more  advantageous to use.  Under
guidelines in §5 136.4 and 13G.5 it may be
approved by the Regional Administrator
of the Region where  the discharge will
occur, providing the Director has  no ob-
jections. Inasmuch as there  is no longer
a  single  approved  reference method
against which a comparison can be made.
the  procedures for  establishing such
comparisons that were  required  by the
proposed  test procedures in  § 130.4 (b)
have been deleted from  this final guide-
line  for test procedures  for  the analysis
of pollutants.
  3.  A mechanism  is also  provided to
assure national uniformity  of such ap-
provals of  alternate  test procedures for
the   analysis   of  pollutants. ' This  Is
achieved through a centralized, internal
review within the EPA of all  applications
for the use of alternate testing  proce-
dures. These will be  reviewed and ap-
proved or  disapproved  on the basis of
submitted information and  other avail-
able  information and  laboratory tests
which may  be required  by the Regional
Administrator.
  As deemed necessary,  the  Administra-
tor will expand or revise these  guide-
lines to provide the most responsive and
appropriate list of  test  procedures to
meet the requirements of sections 304(g),
401 and 402 of the Act,  as amended.
  These final guidelines establishing test
procedures for the analysis of pollutants
supersede the Interim list of test proce-
dures published in the FEDERAL REGISTER
on April 19. 1973 (38 FR 9740) at 40 CFR
Part 126 and subsequent procedures pub-
lished on July 24, 1973 (38 FR  19894)
at 40 CFR  Part 124. Those regulations
established  interim test procedures for
the submittal of applications under sec-
tion 402 of  the Act. Because of the im-
portance  of these  guidelines for test
procedures for the analysis of pollutants
to the National Pollution Discharge Elim-
ination System (NPDES), the Adminis-
trator finds good cause  to declare that
these guidelines shall be effective Octo-
ber 16,1973.

                                                PROPOSED RULES
                                                                         21535
emission limit and the expected si;;o of
iir« plants,  the  25  pounds per  liour
criterion would be exceeded. Where the
iUccted facility or  facilities could ex-
ceed this criterion, the proposal of the
new source performance standard will
also include a proposal to add such plants
to  the list of sources  subject  to the
significant deterioration  review;  how-
ever, only those size  plants which will
ncecd the 25 pounds  per hour emission
limitation will be required  to  undergo
the preconstruction  review.
 Only ferroalloy  production fnrilities
ire proposed to be added nt l.hb  time,
dnce they are the only sources  nnt al-
ready subject to the significant detcrio-
ntion regulation which meet the above
criteria. No'restricllons are placed on the
rize ferroalloy production facility sub-
ject to the review, since all plnnts from
this source category affected by the new
source performance  standard  are ex-
pected to be of sufficient size to exceed
(be emission limitation criterion.
 Consideration  was  given  to  several
other source selection criteria, including
not combining the selection of additional
sources with establishment of new source
performance standards. However,  a re-
Hew of more than 150 candidate sources
mealed that the  Agency's vigorous on-
going new source  performance standard
program  Is orientated  toward  those
sources capable of having major Impacts
at the olr quality  Increment";. In view of
the requirement for sources affected by
the significant deterioration regulation
to use best available  control technology,
and since meeting  a new  source per-
formance standard   satisfies  this  re-
quirement,  the Administrator has con-
cluded the most logical approach for fu-
tare  addition  of  sources  would  be
through  combining   the  addition  of
SHirces subject to the significant dete-
 rioration review with proposals  for new
 Kiurce performance standards. The pro-
 posed approach will provide a clear and
 uniform definition of best available con-
 trol technology for sources which become
 subject to the significant deterioration
 regulation in the future.
  The Administrator also  considered
 nrious emission  rate limitations as  a
 tat-off criteria for adding sources  to the
 prcconstruction requirements of the reg-
ulation. A cut-off criterion of 25 pounds
 per hour was selected to preclude numer-
 ous preconstruction reviews  of well-con-
 trolled sources  which have only  minor
 tapact on the specified air quality  lucre-
 Bents. Also, the focus on major sources
 esentlally regulates the basic economic
 ttructure or  framework of an  area.
 Therefore, if the  major  sources are re-
 stricted  or prohibited In an area, the
 frorth of smaller sources,  which dften
Hepend to a certain extent on the exist-
 ence of the major sources,  will likewise
 terestricted. Consequently, it is the Ad-
 Blnlstrator's judgement that reasonable
 protection of the  deterioration  incre-
 nents can be obtained by continuing to
 focus on major sources.
 • The Administrator recognizes that fu-
 ture air quality may require a change in
 tte proposed selection  criteria:  such
 danges 'will be adopted as  necessary to
•tomrethat the provisions and Intent of
the December 5lh regulations  are com-
plied with.
  Comments on  the proposed changes
and  the Administrator's plan for sub-
jecting additional sources to the precon-
struction   review   requirements   are
solicited, and should be forwarded  (In
triplicate)  to the Office of Air Quality

       ANALYSIS OF POLLUTANTS
  Proposed Guidelines for Establishing Test
               Procedures
   The Environmental Protection Agency
 Is considering amendments to Part 136
 of Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations,
 setting  forth  Guidelines  Establishing
 Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pol-
 lutants. These amendments would cor-
 rect minor errors and include  additional
 parameters  and  analytical methods In
 ! 136.3,  "Identification of Test  Proce-
 dures."  The  guidelines were  published
 In the  FEDERAL  REGISTER  on  Tuesday,
 October 16, 1973  (38 FR 28757).
   Interested persons may participate in
 this proposed rule making by submitting
 written comments, suggestions, or objec-
 tions to the Office of Research and De-
 velopment, Quality  Assurance Division
 (RD-687, EPA, Washington, D.C. 20460
 on or before July 24, 1975.  All comments
 which  are received within this time pe-
 riod will be considered before final ac-
 tion is  taken  on this proposed amend-
 ment.  Copies  of  all comments received
 will be available  for examination by in-
 terested persons in Room 3100D, Water-
 side Mall Building, 401 M Street, SW.,
 Washington, D.C.  20460. The proposed
 amendment may be changed  In light of
 the comments received.
   Section 136.3 Identified  the test pro-
 cedures which must be used In any certi-
 fication pu^-suant to section 401 or per-
 mit  application pursuant to section 402
of the Federal Water Pollution Control
Act Amendments of  1972  (86  Slat. 816
et seq., Pub. L. 92-500 (1972)). It is pro-
posed to make minor wording changes
and correct typographical errors In en-
tries numbered 1, 2, 9, 14, 37, 53, and 62.
These changes do not affect the nature of
the parameter measured or the method to
be used, but simply serve  to clarify the
meaning of the entries listed.
  Certain parameters not included In the
original list have been determined to be
significant in the control of  pollutants
for which the Agency  has established
effluent limitations.  For these param-
eters,  test procedures  have  been  se-
lected which will provide reliable data
when they are employed  with an ade-
quate quality control program. The ad-

        the  Environmental Protection  Agency
        published  a  notice of final  rulemaking
        establishing  effluent  limitations guide-
        lines for existing sources and standards
        of performance and pretreatment stand-
        ards for new sources for  three  subcate-
        gorles of  the  nonferrous metals  cate-
        gory—bauxite refining, primary alumi-
        num smelting and secondary aluminum
        smelting. 40 CFR Part 421. .The Agency
        has continued to review the regulations.
        both in the  context of litigation filed on
        these particular regulations  (Reynolds
        Metals Co.  v. EPA.  C.A.  4. Civ. No. 74-
        1760) and In considering the impact  of
        issues raised In other guideline reviews
        on Part 421. As a result  of this review.
        It  has  been  determined that  certain
        amendments would be appropriate. These
        amendments  are the  subject  of  this
        notice.
          In Part 421 the Administrator estab-
        lished for the bauxite refining  subcate-
        gory an  effluent limitation for existing
        plants of "no discharge of process waste
        water pollutants to navigable  waters."
        The treatment technology relied upon  in
        defining the effluent limitations was total
        Impoundment. Recognizing the difficulty
        in achieving "no discharge," in  the face
        of significant  rainfall, the  regulations
        allow for discharge of excess rainfall that
falls within the impoundment. Under the
circumstances, precise  definition  of the
term "within the impoundment"  Is Im-
portant. While  the Agency  is not  pre-
pared to define the Impoundment area to
Include  the entire countryside  drain-
ing into the plant area, some expansion
of the  area beyond the  Impoundment
dam itself appears to be appropriate. It is
therefore proposed that a definition simi-
lar to that proposed for Inclusion in the
hydrochloric acid subcategory of the in-
organic chemicals Industry (40 FR 1712,
January 9,  1975) be  adopted for the
bauxite  refining subcategory.  The  pro-
posed definition would make It clear that
the term "within the impoundment" re-
fers to  the  water surface  area  within
the  Impoundment  dam  at maximum
capacity, the area of the inside and out-
side slopes of the dam, the surface area
between the outside edge of the seepage
ditches and the bottom of the outside
sloi>e of the dam. The effect of the pro-
posed definition is to give credit  for  all
rainfall  within  this extended drainage
area, in the calculation of the volume of
water which may be discharged from the
impoundment.
  With regard to the regulations for the
secondary   aluminum   smelting   sub-
category (40 CFR Part 421.  Subpart C),
an issue was raised during litigation con-
cerning a  possible ambiguity  as  to the
applicability of the regulations to vari-
ous  waste  streams.  In developing the
guidelines and standards of performance
applicable  to these sources, the Agency
concentrated on wastes in fume-scrub-
bing wastewaters where aluminum fluo-
ride is  used in  the magnesium removal
process and wastewaters from metal cool-
Ing, establishing a limitation of "no dis-
charge," and on wastes in fume-scrub-
bing wastewaters where chlorine is used
in the magnesium removal process and in
wet  residue  milling wastewaters,  estab-
lishing  numerical  limitations  for these
two  waste  streams. It was not intended
that the regulations apply at this time to
wastes in a fourth, less  significant, waste
stream including waste  from furnace wet
scrubbers.  In reviewing the regulations,
however, some ambiguity as to the in-
tent to exclude  this latter waste stream
from coverage of the regulations appears
to exist. An amendment to Subpart C of
the regulations  is therefore  proposed, to
clarify  the applicability of  the  regula-
tions to the various waste streams.
  Interested persons may participate  In
the  rulemr.king  by submitting written
comments  in triplicate  to the EPA Office
of Public Affairs, Environmental Protec-
tion  Agency, Washington,  D.C.  20460.
Attention:   Ms.   Ruth  Brown,   A-107.
Comments on all aspects of the proposed
regulations are solicited.  In the event
comments are in the nature of criticisms
as to the adequacy of data available,  or
which may be relied upon by the Agency,
comments should identify and if possible
provide any  additional  data which  may
be available and Indicate why such data
are essential to the development  of the
regulations. In the event comments ad-
dress the approach taken by the Agency,

          stream.

      2.  Theories of waste treatment including solids
          removal, neutralization, equalization and pro-
          portioning, and removal of dissolved organics and
          inorganics.

      3.  Engineering practice and actual case studies which
          consider economics, public opinion, personality
          differences, local laws or customs, and previous
          community  experience to help the reader put theories
          into practice.

      4.  A condensed evaluation of the nature of major indus-
          trial wastes - their origin, characteristics and
          treatments.
