1.0    OVERVIEW

       Under the Clean Water Act (CWA), EPA establishes technology-based national
regulations, termed "effluent limitations guidelines and standards," to reduce pollutant
discharges from categories of industrial facilities to waters of the United States. Under the CWA,
EPA similarly establishes technology-based regulations, termed "pretreatment standards" to
reduce indirect pollutant discharges from industrial facilities to waters of the United States.

       The CWA also specifies effluent guideline planning and review requirements. There are
different requirements for direct and indirect dischargers, but both specify annual review of
promulgated effluent guidelines and pretreatment standards. For direct dischargers, the CWA
requires EPA to publish an Effluent Guidelines Program Plan every two years after allowing for
public review and comment on the plan prior to final publication.

       This document provides information on the documents and analyses in the docket
supporting the 2009 annual review and the Preliminary 2010 Effluent Guidelines Program Plan.
See the Federal Register Notice presenting EPA's 2009 annual review and the Preliminary 2010
Effluent Guidelines Program Plan, 74, No. 247 [EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0517, FRL-9095-5] RIN
2040-AF06 (28 December 2009).  Documents cited in the Preliminary 2010 Effluent Guidelines
Program Plan (28 December 2009; 74 FR 68599) are listed in Attachment 3, with their
Regulations.gov Document ID Numbers noted. Key supporting documents are also available on
EPA's Effluent Guidelines Program Planning webpage: http://epa.gov/guide/304m/.

2.0    BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON THE DOCKET

       What is the Docket and How Can I Gain Access to It?

       Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0517 is the official docket for EPA's Preliminary
2010 Effluent Guidelines Program Plan and its 2009 Annual Review of existing effluent
limitations guidelines. The official docket consists of the documents specifically referenced in
the Federal Register notices of these actions, any public comments received, and other related
information. Although it is a part of the official docket, Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute is not included in the materials
available to the public.

       The official public docket  is the collection of electronic and hard copy materials that is
available for public viewing at the Water Docket in the EPA Docket Center,  (EPA/DC), located
in the EPA Headquarters Library,  EPA West, Room Number 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW,
Washington, DC. An electronic version of the public docket is available through a federal-wide
electronic docket management system located at www.regulations.gov.

       You may use the Regulations.gov web site to view public comments, access a listing of
the contents of the official docket, and access those documents in the public docket that are
available electronically. Certain documents are not available in the electronic docket system.
These documents include but are not limited to copyright-protected material; physical objects
such as maps, aerial photographs,  colored charts; and information that has been claimed as
confidential. Although not all docket materials may be available electronically, you may still
access any of the publicly-available docket materials at the EPA Docket Center.
                                           I

-------
       Can I retrieve information that has been claimed "Confidential Business Information?"

       The docket contains some documents that contain confidential business information
(CBI). CBI documents are not available for review by the public, and are not filed in the Water
Docket in the EPA Docket Center. Some documents are classified as CBI because companies
providing the information specifically claimed certain information (e.g., operating or financial
data) as CBI. Other documents are classified as CBI because release of these documents could
indirectly reveal information claimed to be confidential.

       How is the Docket for EPA's Preliminary 2010 Effluent Guidelines Program Plan related
       to the Docket for the 2008 Effluent Guidelines Program Plan?

       The CWA requires EPA to publish an Effluent Guidelines Program Plan every two years
after allowing for public review and comment on the plan prior to final publication. Documents
supporting the 2008 Effluent Guidelines Program Plan and the 2007 and 2008 annual reviews of
existing effluent limitations guidelines are located in Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2006-0771.
Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2006-0771 is incorporated by reference into the docket for the
2010 Final Plan and the 2009 Annual Review of existing effluent limitations guidelines (Docket
ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0517). See EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0517-06397. All of the documents in
the docket supporting the 2008 Plan and the 2007 and 2008 annual reviews also support the
Preliminary 2010 Plan and the 2009 Annual Review. Finally, EPA also incorporated by
reference all of the documents in the docket supporting the Plans for 2004 and 2006, which
includes the annual reviews for years 2003-2006. See EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0517-06397.

The 2006 Overview of Assisted Living provides comprehensive statistical data on the
assisted living business, such as property and resident information, occupancy rates,
service and payment plans, and much more. The 2006 Overview is a collaborative
research effort of our five organizations and is one of the most significant research
studies undertaken to date on assisted living.
This report summarizes regulation of assisted living in each state and the District of
Columbia. Information in the report is obtained from state regulatory agencies, state
provider associations affiliated with NCAL, and through review of state regulations.
Because many states are developing and refining their assisted living rules and
guidelines, readers are encouraged to contact the identified state agencies and to
obtain copies of the regulations in their entirety if they desire more detailed information.
The Basic Guidelines of Judicious Therapeutic Use of Antimicrobials in cats and dogs
are designed to provide information to aid practicing veterinarians in choosing
appropriate antimicrobial therapy to best serve their patients and to help minimize the
development of antimicrobial resistance.







I called Ms. Ourso on March 12, 2009, to discuss the benzidine discharges reported to
PCS for 2007.

I called Tronox Hamilton on March 12, 2009, to speak with Learnard Dickerson.

I contacted Mr. Freeze to discuss manganese discharges reported to TRI for 2007.

After sending an email to Mr. Moeller on March 10, 2009, I followed up with a phone call
on March 16, 2009.




On May 1 , 2009, I called the number for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency listed
on Northshore Mining's NPDES permit.

Case study of the TrojanUVPhox at the Aurora Reservoir Water Purification Facility

Municipal solid waste (MSW) refers to the stream of garbage collected through
community sanitation services. Medical wastes from hospitals and items that can be
recycled are generally excluded from MSW used to generate electricity.

The EPA is today issuing a final regulation to reduce air pollution from municipal waste
combustors (waste-to-energy plants, which generate energy from garbage, and
incinerators).

To reduce waste volume, local governments or private operators can implement a
controlled burning process called combustion or incineration.

This broad-based study addressed three categories of issues related to the design,
construction, and performance of waste containment systems used at landfills, surface
impoundments, and waste piles, and in the remediation of contaminated sites.

This document provides an overview of two reports that together make up the TNSSS
report: 1) Targeted National Sewage Sludge Survey Sampling and Analysis Technical
Report ("Technical Report"), and 2) Targeted National Sewage Sludge Survey
Statistical Analysis Report ("Statistical Report").
This document provides technical background, statistical methods, and resulting
estimates of pollutant concentrations in treated sewage sludge that represent POTWs
in the contiguous United States with flow rates of at least 1 MGD. Estimates were
produced using data from a national probability sample of 74 POTWs that statistically
represent 3,337 POTWs that met the study criteria.
This Report describes the sampling and analysis activities conducted by EPA in support
of the TNSSS. The TNSSS was designed to: 1) obtain updated occurrence information
on nine analytes of potential concern, and 2) obtain occurrence information on a
number of contaminants of emerging interest identified by EPA and the National
Research Council NRC.
This task force was established in response to Resolution 1 04-5-08, Task Force on
Medication Collection Programs, which was approved by the NABP membership at the
Association's 104th Annual Meeting in May 2008.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) met with representatives from the
American Hospital Association (AHA) to discuss their statistical approach and methods

Roxboro Outfall 002 September 2008 DMR Data - DCN
0641 4A1
The total U.S. spending on Pharmaceuticals are projected to top $247 billion in 2008,
while more than 120 million Americans take one or more prescription medications
regularly in a year.
The study was conducted in eight community pharmacies and five GP surgeries within
East Birmingham over a 4-week period to investigate the types and amounts of
medicines returned to both general practices and associated local community
pharmacies and why the medication was returned.
Modern drug distribution systems use single unit packages to a great extent and, in
fact, such packages are central to the operation of unit dose systems, intravenous
admixture services, and other important aspects of pharmacy practice.






Assesments for potential impact to human health from enviormental exposers were
caried out for 44 active pharmaceutical ingredients marketed by
Glaxosmithkline, representing approximetly 22 general pharmamceutical classes
exhibiting a broad spectrum of therapeutic activities. These assesments use the
considerale amount of information avalable on the human pharmacology and
toxicicology of the AlPs to develop acceptable daily intakes which are belived to be
without pharmaceuticology ortoxicological effect.
17R-Ethinyl estradiol (EE2) is a synthetic estrogen widely used in combination with
other steroid hormones in oral contraceptives and in the contraceptive patch. EE2 has
been detected in sewage treatment plant effluent in the low nanogram -per-liter range
and occassional in surface waters.
Unused medicines are returned in substantial quantities and have considerable
financial value, with many in a condition suitable for re-use. We consider it appropriate
to reopen the debate on the potential for re-using these medicines in developing
countries here medicines are not widely available and also within the UK.

By collecting and studying UEM data, we can improve our understanding of the
problems, challenges, and dangers of UEM originating in our homes, workplaces, and
communities. By fall 2004, researchers at the Foundation created the first standardized
data collection instrument and protocol to collect and classify UEM.
The four main reasons for returning unused medicines to the pharmacy were: (1 ) the
medicines were too old, (2) the user had died, (3) there was no need for the medicine
anymore, and (4) therapy changes. These reasons made up 75% of all reported
reasons.
The following is a compilation of state statutes and current legislation addressing
prescription take back programs.
Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from medications can enter the environment
as trace contaminants, at individual concentrations generally below a part per billion.
NCSL has identified and tracked state legislation to create prescription drug recycling,
repository or redistribution programs for unused medication.
The causes and costs of outpatient medication waste are not known. We report the
results of a cross-sectional pilot survey of medication waste in a convenience sample of
73 New Hampshire retirement community residents aged 65 years or older.

To assess the extent of and the reasons for unclaimed prescriptions, primary non-
compliance, after automated transmittalsto pharmacies.


The USEPA is collecting data from organizations about unused pharmaceutical
disposal at hospitals and long term care facilities. The data request solicits information
from companies that have volunteered to provide information about pharmaceutical
disposal practices at their hospitals or long term care facilities.

The Washington State Department of Ecology is announcing an interim enforcement
policy for pharmaceutical waste. Within its enforcement discretion, Ecology will refrain
from enforcing portions of the Dangerous Waste Regulations at facilities meeting the
conditions of this policy.
The purpose of this Alert is to increase awareness among health care workers and their
employers about the health risks posed by working with hazardous drugs and to
provide them with measures for protecting their health.
A 2 Year pilot project funded by EPA Grant in collaboration with Health Care
Association of New York State and the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation.
The American Society of Consultant Pharmacists is pleased to offer comments to the
EPA regarding the addition of hazardous pharmaceutical wastes to the Agency's
Universal Waste Rule outlined in the proposed rule published December 2, 2008.
This is the final of three reports promised to the Maryland General Assembly on the
establishment of a prescription drug repository program in Maryland.
To amend the Controlled Substances Act to provide for disposal of controlled
substances by ultimate users and care takers through State take-back disposal
programs, to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to prohibit
recommendations on drug labels for disposal by flushing, and for other purposes.
To amend the Controlled Substances Act to provide for take-back disposal of controlled
substances in certain instances, and for other purposes.
To direct the Administrator of the EPA to convene a task force to develop
recommendations on the proper disposal of unused Pharmaceuticals, and for other
purposes.

MaineCare has instituted measures to ensure cost effectiveness with the use of Drug
Benefit Management, Drug-Drug editing promoting education and patient safety, recent
PPI limitations and Intensive Benefit Management of controlled substances.
The objective of this project was to establish a formal collaborative partnership among
multiple health care and regulatory organizations and the Joint Commission to more
closely align existing environmental regulations and beyond compliance opportunities
with the Joint Commission Environment of Care Standards.
If you need help understanding which federal hazardous waste management
regulations apply to your business, this handbook is for you. It has been prepared by
the U.S. EPA to help small-business owners and operators understand how best to
comply with federal hazardous waste management regulations.
In order to regulate the over 800,000 hazardous waste generators in the United States
cost effectively, EPA in 1985 established three types of generators. In most cases
hospitals are small quantity generators.
During 1996, Senate Bill 1966 was signed into law. This bill redirected regulation of
California only hazardous pharmaceutical waste from the California Department of
Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) to the California Department of Health Services
(DHS). The memorandum includes information to assist the regulated and regulatory
communities in complying with and uniformly enforcing the law in an appropriate
manner.
Presentation to assist Minnesota business with pollution prevention, resource
efficiency, and cost savings.
This report describes the national municipal solid waste stream based on data collected
for 1960 through 2007.
To assist hospitals with considering the viable alternatives for medical waste
management, the Bay Area Dioxins Project has compiled a set of materials for your
use, including this set of answers to common questions about autoclaving an acute

There are two major concerns regarding household disposal of unused or expired
medications. First, health threats may occur when other people, particularly children,
mistakenly acquire the prescription drugs if they are carelessly disposed. Secondly,
some of these products can cause environmental damage if disposed into the sewer
system because these materials are not adequately destroyed by sewer treatment
plants and can enter the water supply.
Collect ambient water data for use in compilation with basin data on contaminants of
emerging concern.
The study population consisted of Ohio Medicaid nursing home residents who received
a Minimum Data Set Assessment during the State Fiscal Year 2001 (June 2000 to July
2001).

A hospital pharmacy can easily have several thousand distinct pharmaceutical
materials in inventory. Any of these materials can enter the waste stream, and some
must be managed as hazardous wastes. This page will help you determine which rules
apply.

The discovery of a variety of Pharmaceuticals in surface, ground, and drinking waters
around the country is raising concerns about the potentially adverse environmental
consequences of these contaminants.

This technical guidance document provides information regarding the proper disposal
of Pharmaceuticals that are not currently regulated by the RCRA, including common
over-the-counter and prescription medications.
On behalf of Tri-TAC, we want to provide you with an update on recent guidance
developed by the California Department of Health Services regarding the disposal of
pharmaceutical wastes into sewer systems, and recommendations for your agency on
how to handle this challenging disposal issue.
The objective of this document is to establish background information on medicine
disposal in New Hampshire that can be used by stakeholders to develop a statewide
policy on proper medicine disposal practices.

CBI - Final notes from EPA's site visit at Louisville Gas & Electric Company's Trimble
County Station on December 10, 2008.
Cover letter to Joseph Lapcevic, Allegheny Energy, delivering the draft notes from
EPA's site visit at the Harrison Power Station on September 10, 2008.

Draft notes from EPA's site visit at Allegheny Energy's Harrison Power Station on
September 1 0, 2008. These notes were delivered to Harrison for their review.

This report provides a broad review of post-combustion CO2 capture technologies and
processes under development. The majority of current research and development
efforts are focused on improving regenerative absorption processes, the chemistries of
solvents, and process equipment. The balance of R&D activity proposes altogether new
processes. The intent of this effort is to summarize ongoing developments and identify
post-combustion capture options that show promise of significant cost and energy
reductions. Accordingly, this will be the first in what will be an ongoing annual review as
process development proceeds and new processes are identified. While an attempt
was made to identify all of the ongoing R&D in this area, there is no guarantee that
every emerging process was identified and included.
Mercury occurs naturally in all types of coal and is released when the coal is burned.
Data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (US EPA's) Information
Collection Request (ICR) indicated that 75 tons of mercury are released from the coal
burned annually by electric utilities (EPRI, 2000). Of this total, about 60 percent is
released to the atmosphere in the stack gases and the remaining 40 percent is
assumed to be captured with the coal combustion by-products (CCBs), principally fly
ash and flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sludge. In 2000, the US EPA indicated their
intent to require power plants to decrease mercury emissions beginning in 2007. Most
of the control technologies currently being considered to meet this requirement would
increase the mercury concentrations in CCBs. A previous report (EPRI, 2001 a)
compiled available data on the concentrations of mercury in CCBs and possible
environmental implications. The data showed that mercury concentrations in CCBs
were relatively low, usually less than 0.5 mg/kg.

Venturi scrubbers are very effective in removing small solid particles. The defining
characteristic of the Venturi scrubber technology is the introduction of a liquid stream.
A water spray is directed into the gas stream laden with particulate matter prior to or at
the site of constriction in the tube followed by a reduction in velocity at the expanded
section of the throat. This allows the droplets of water containing the particles to drop
out of the gas stream. The production of wastewater is the one of the drawbacks of this
device.

In 1 994, EPRI funded a project to develop a guide for the utility industry on the use of
gypsum produced in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. That study covered the
production and marketing of gypsum on a worldwide basis, and reviewed potential
markets for the use of FGD-derived gypsum. At that time, production and use of FGD
gypsum was just emerging; there have been many changes in the market over the past
dozen years. Many more utilities are now producing high quality FGD gypsum from
scrubbers installed to comply with the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1 990. Because the
amount of FGD gypsum is expected to increase substantially over the next ten years in
response to clean air initiatives, the expansion of existing markets and the creation of
new markets for FGD gypsum as an alternative to disposal are a high priority for the
industry.
The purpose of the present study is to update and summarize current information on
the production and use of FGD gypsum in manufacturing applications. The study
approach was to focus primarily on a web-based search on gypsum production and
markets.
The data collected include a very broad overview of the current uses of gypsum, and
are intended as a starting point in evaluation of the potential market for FGD gypsum in
manufacturing. Gypsum chemistry and products were covered extensively in the 1994
EPRI study and are discussed only briefly here. The scope of this preliminary
assessment is restricted to manufacturing applications. Civil engineering applications,
which account for less than 1% of the total FGD gypsum use, are not discussed. Use of
FGD gypsum as an agricultural soil amendment is being evaluated in a separate EPRI
report.

Arsenic and Selenium Speciation in Fly Ash and
Wastewater - DCN 06505








Case Studies in Ash Pond Management - DCN 06507









Characterization of Field Leachates at Coal Combustion
Product Management Sites: Arsenic, Selenium,
Chromium, and Mercury Speciation - DCN 06508











The objective of the work is to predict As and Se behavior in pond wastewater based on
coal and power plant characteristics so that utilities will have tools for selection of coals
(and blends) that will allow them to meet applicable water quality regulations in the ash
pond discharge. Arsenic and selenium were chosen as the focus of this work because
the behavior of arsenic and selenium is not well correlated with pH in ash pond water,
but with speciation of these oxyanions in the fly ash. Furthermore, the coal composition
and combustion conditions have an impact on the speciation of arsenic and selenium in
the fly ash. To date in this study, coal composition, ash composition and sluicing
behavior have been correlated for a number of coals, primarily lowsulfur bituminous
coals.
This two-day workshop, "Case Studies in Ash Pond Management: Toward Developing
Integrated Strategies for Managing Multiple Constituents in Ash Pond Discharges," is
part of EPRI's ongoing program, Integrated Management of Ash Ponds. The goal of
EPRI's program is to develop integrated approaches for co-managing various solids
and solutes that occur in water of coal-ash settling ponds. The 2004 workshop's
purpose was to provide an informal forum for personnel associated with ash pond
operations and discharges, to present, compare, and discuss their challenges and
management approaches, and to assess the state of the science and develop research
priorities. Additional case study results will be presented at a 2005 workshop, and a
final report will be published comparing and contrasting various integrated management
approaches.
Field leachate samples were collected from 29 coal combustion product (CCP)
management sites from several geographic locations in the United States to provide a
broad characterization of major and trace constituents in the leachate. In addition,
speciation of arsenic, selenium, chromium, and mercury in the leachates was
determined. A total of 81 samples were collected representing a variety of CCP types,
management approaches, and source coals. Samples were collected from leachate
wells, leachate collection systems, drive-point piezometers, lysimeters, the ash/water
interface at impoundments, impoundment outfalls and inlets, and seeps. Results
suggest distinct differences in the chemical composition of leachate from coal ash and
flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sludge, landfills and impoundments, and from
bituminous and subbituminous/lignite coals. Concentrations of many constituents were
higher in landfill leachate than in impoundment leachate. Furthermore, aluminum,
carbonates, chloride, chromium, copper, mercury, sodium, and sulfate concentrations
were higher in leachates for ash from

                      TITLE
Chemical Constituents in Coal Combustion Product
Leachate: Boron - DCN 06509
                               ABSTRACT
Boron is an indicator of coal combustion product leachate and also occurs naturally in
soils and water. It is an essential nutrient for bacteria and plants, and is known to be
beneficial to humans. However, in sufficiently high dosages, it can be harmful to plants
and humans. Some crops, such as citrus, can show signs of stress when boron
concentrations are as low as 0.5 mg/L while others such as cotton can tolerate boron at
concentrations of 10 mg/L or more. The current reference dose (RfD) for boron is 0.2
mg/kg-day, although this value may increase when new data on the beneficial nature of
boron are considered.  The largest sources of boron to the environment are natural;
however, it is also released by anthropogenic sources including sewage effluent,
municipal and industrial landfills, and coal combustion product management sites. The
typical concentration of boron in most natural materials is less than 50  mg/kg. Typical
concentrations in coal  bottom ash and flue gas desulfurization solids are near 100
mg/kg and in coal fly ash 500 mg/kg.

This program delivers credible data to characterize power plant wastewaters and inform
the regulatory debate on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) potential
revisions to the effluent guidelines for the steam electric industry. The program also
develops sound guidelines for effective management of ash ponds, provides innovative
technologies for wastewater treatment to remove chemicals such as trace metals, and
develops practical tools for biofouling control using nontoxic alternatives to oxidizing
biocides such as chlorine. Its products help facility owners develop effective compliance
strategies.

Increasing anthropogenic releases of biologically available nitrogen create ecological
and human health problems. The use of market-based strategies, such as water quality
trading (WQT), offers an economically and ecologically superior option for reducing
anthropogenic impacts to natural resources. In January 2003, EPA took a major step to
advance water quality improvement with the issuance of its Water Quality Trading
Policy, which specifically allows for trading credits that represent net nutrient reductions,
including nitrogen. EPRI is developing a water quality trading (WQT) pilot program
which will allow the electric power industry to address nitrogen loadings to waterways
via trading. This report, which follows up on EPRI Technical Update 1013193, "Water
Quality Trading Opportunities for Electric Power Companies: EPRI White Paper,"
discusses the drivers for trading nitrogen, characteristics of successful trading
programs, and the process for establishing a trading program.

Traditionally, utilities have comanaged some or all of their low-volume wastes with their
high volume combustion by-products in disposal facilities. This report presents
guidance on comanagement of coal combustion by-products and mill rejects containing
pyrites at coal-fired power plants. The report specifically addresses the issue of
environmental protection from leachates due to oxidation of pyrites under certain
conditions. Included is a discussion of acidbase accounting and neutralization capacity
of alkaline coal ash to assist in appropriate comanagement of mill rejects in landfills and
impoundments.

Santized Version - EPA is studying the disposal of Pharmaceuticals from the health
care industry to address concerns about the potential for these Pharmaceuticals to
enter surface waters. The purpose of this Health Care Industry Detailed Study is to
collect information on disposal practices, quantities of Pharmaceuticals disposed, and
best management practices (BMPs) for pharmaceutical waste minimization and
management. In February 2009, EPA met with Mr. Daniel Baker, the general manager
of NeighborCare in Annapolis Junction, Maryland, which is a subsidiary of Omnicare.

including a process flow diagram and currently operating Siemens FGD wastewater
treatment systems.
Press release from Siemens Water Technologies describing plans to build a
physical/chemical wastewater treatment system to treat the wastewater from the FGD
process at Cheswick Power Station.
Aquatech International Corporation was awarded the contract to supply and install zero
liquid discharge (ZLD) systems to treat FGD waste water from five coal-fired power
projects for ENEL (Ente Nazionale Energia Elettrica) in Italy. This paper discusses
design considerations and concept applied and compares the initial operational data
from the plants commissioned. The HPD system will use a two-step process to treat
effluent from the FGD scrubbers to provide a zero liquid discharge (ZLD) solution as
mandated by ENDESA Italia, since no aqueous waste is allowed.
This report presents the results of a survey of the U.S. utility industry, conducted by
EPRI in order to assemble information on comanagement of high-volume coal
combustion by-products with low-volume wastes.

Duke Energy Indiana's Gibson Generating Station near Princeton will not reopen its on-
site lake to fishing as usual April 1 , pending the results of an environmental study of the
lake's fish and water quality. The study will look at a variety of aspects of the lake's
ecology, including selenium levels that have been detected in the lake's fish. Selenium
is a naturally occurring trace element found in most rocks and soil. Low levels of
selenium are essential for good health, but long-term human consumption of high levels
of selenium may result in some health effects.
Maryland Power Plant Research Program (PPRP) has prepared this report to present
the findings of its evaluation of the ground water quality data generated for the site and
for nearby residential supply wells. The findings of this study will contribute further to
the overall level of understanding of the Maryland Department of the Environment and
PPRP as to potential impacts to ground water quality resulting from the use of coal
combustion products for surface mine reclamation.

A Baltimore County Circuit Court judge approved a $54 million settlement Wednesday
to a year-long class action lawsuit brought by a group of Anne Arundel County
homeowners against Constellation Energy Group. The lawsuit filed last November
against Constellation Power Generation, a subsidiary of Constellation, alleged that
homeowners' water supplies were contaminated by fly ash from a Constellation power
plant.
Following discovery of elevated levels of selenium in the water and aquatic life at Cane
Ridge Wildlife Management Area in southwestern Indiana, U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service biologists have begun employing management actions
designed to discourage endangered least terns and other migratory
birds from nesting on the refuge.
According to an updated survey by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), a coal ash
spill in eastern Tennessee, that experts were already calling the largest environmental
disaster of its kind in the United States, is more than three times as large as initially
estimated.

UWAG comments on the draft Sampling Plan Duke Energy Carolinas' Belews Creek
Steam Station, Belews Creek, NC, dated 5 September 2008.
A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for aqueous microwave digestion. This
aggressive closed Teflon bomb digestion procedure can be used for aqueous samples
where there is a concern about incomplete digestion of organic matter or other
constituents adversely affecting analytical performance.
A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for aqueous biphasic separation. This
centrifugation procedure is used to process aqueous slurry samples where the total
suspended solids (TSS) concentration exceeds the 1 % threshold stated in EPA
methods 200.7 and 200.8.
A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for modified digestion for clean mercury
analysis. Samples with high levels of organic matter can use this aggressive digestion
procedure patterned after EPA method 245 for tissue samples. This approach insures
complete digestion (and release of mercury for analysis) of even high organic content
aqueous matrices.
Delivering flow data for the Belews Creek sample periods.
Flow data for bioreactor effluent, FGD purge, and bioreactor influent sampling at
Belews Creek.
UWAG requests to meet with EPA during late September or early October to discuss
the Belews Creek sampling event as well as other future sampling events. UWAG
wants to review the existing data and methodologies in detail so that procedures and
methods can be refined to improve data quality.
Includes recommendations for improving consistency and reliability of sampling results
for the October 20-23 Belews Creek sampling event and other future sampling events.

Elimination of Pharmaceuticals in sewage treatment
plants in Finland - DCN 06953











The occurrence of ciprofloxacin, sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline, and trimethoprim
antibiotics in four full-scale wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) that differ in design
and operating conditions was determined. The WWTPs chosen utilized a variety of
secondary removal processes, such as a two stage activated sludge process with a
nitrification tank, extended aeration, rotating biological contactors, and pure oxygen
activated sludge. Several of the WWTPs also employed an advanced treatment
process, such as chlorination and UV radiation disinfection. The detected
concentrations (Ig/l) ranged from 0.20 to 1 .4 for ciprofloxacin, 0.21 to 2.8 for
sulfamethoxazole, 0.061 to 1 .1 for tetracycline, and 0.21 to 7.9 for trimethoprim. The
overall percent difference in the concentrations of the antibiotics in the effluent and
influent of these antibiotics differed between plants and ranged from 33% to 97%.
Based on these four full-scale WWTPs evaluated, the apparent removal of organic
micro pollutants in wastewater is dependent on a combination of biological and
physicochemical treatment processes and operating conditions of the treatment system.

The occurrence of eight Pharmaceuticals (b-blockers: acebutolol, atenolol, metoprolol
and sotalol; antiepileptic: carbamazepine; fluoroquinolone antibiotics: ciprofloxacin,
norfloxacin, ofloxacin) were assessed in the raw and treated sewage of 12 sewage
treatment plants (STPs) in Finland. The average concentrations in the raw and treated
sewage ranged from 1 00 to 1 060 ng L 1 and from o24 to 755 ng L 1 , respectively. The
average daily loads ranged from 36 to 405 mg/1 000 inh and from 2 to 302 mg/1 000 inh,
respectively. In the treatment plants, fluoroquinolones were eliminated by 480%.
Carbamazepine was not eliminated during the treatment and in fact even higher
concentrations were frequently found in the treated than in the raw sewages. The
increase in concentration was shown to be most likely due to enzymatic cleavage of the
glucuronic conjugate of carbamazepine and release of the parent compound in the
treatment plant. The b-blockers were eliminated in average by less than 65% and the
elimination varied greatly between the treatment plants.

Elimination of Selected Acidic Pharmaceuticals from
Municipal Wastewater by an Activated Sludge System
and Membrane Bioreactors - DCN 06958
The elimination of six acidic Pharmaceuticals (clofibric acid, diclofenac, ibuprofen,
ketoprofen, mefenamic acid, and naproxen) in a real wastewater treatment plant
(VWVTP) using an activated sludge system and membrane bioreactors (MBRs) was
investigated by using a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) system for
measurement of the compounds. Limited information is available for some of the tested
Pharmaceuticals at present. Solid retention times (SRTs) of the VWVTP and the two
MBRs were 7, 15, and 65 days, respectively. The elimination rates varied from
compound to compound. The MBRs exhibited greater elimination rates for the
examined Pharmaceuticals than did the real plant. Dependency of the elimination rates
of the Pharmaceuticals on SRTs was obvious; the MBR operated with a longer SRTof
65 days clearly showed better performance than did the MBR with a shorter SRT of 15
days.

Fate of Estrogens and Xenoestrogens in Four Sewage
Treatment Plants with different Technologies - DCN
06954
The fate and removal of the estrogens I7j3-estradiol (E2), estrone (El), and 17a-
ethynylestradiol (EE2) and of the xenoestrogens bisphenol A (BPA), 4-tert-octylphenol
(4-t-OP), 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), and nonylphenol mono- and diethoxylate (NPEOI and
NPE02, respectively) were investigated in four South Australian sewage treatment
plants (STPs; plants A-D) with different treatment technologies. The concentrations in
the effluent from the two-year survey were similar to those reported in other studies. In
the effluent, 4-Np, NPEOI, and NPE02 had total concentrations up to 8 fLgIL, which
were much higher than those of BPA and 4-t-OP' Estrone had the highest
concentrations among the three estrogens, ranging between 13.3 and 39.3 ngIL,
whereas the concentrations for E2 and EE2 varied between 1.0 and 4.2 ngIL and
between 0.1 and 1.3 ngIL, respectively. The removal rates for the estrogens and
xenoestrogens were variable but consistent with the plant performance parameters
(biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and ammonia).

Plant Effluents - DCN 06956



















Considering all the estrogenic compounds analyzed in the present study, plant D, with a
series of anaerobic and aerobic lagoons, was the least efficient of the four STPs in the
removal of these compounds. The removal rates for 4-Np, NPEOI, and NPE02 within
the plants were 92% for plant A, with conventional activated sludge treatment; 80% for
plant B, with two oxidation ditches; 70% for plant C, with three bioreactors; and 64% for
plant D, with 1 0 lagoons in series. Comparatively, the removal of estrogens was lower,
with rates ranging between 47 and 68% for E2 at the four plants. Both El and EE2 were
more persistent during treatment, especially in plants C and D.
French researchers, partly funded by the EC projects NORMAN and KNAPPE1 ,
compiled the database based on information from 1 1 7 studies into wastewater from
Europe, Brazil and North America. 184 different PPCP molecules were identified in all.
These covered a range of Pharmaceuticals, including hormones, antiseptics, beta
blockers (drugs used for heart conditions) and antidepressants. Personal care products
included musk fragrances (perfume), sunscreen chemicals and insect repellents.
On December 10th, Samantha Lewis (EPA) spoke with Paul Casano, an Environmental
and Safety Coordinator at quest diagnostics in NJ.

The primary objective of this study was to determine the presence of unregulated
organic chemicals in reclaimed water using complementary targeted and broad
spectrum approaches. Eleven of 12 targeted human Pharmaceuticals, antioxidants, and
plasticizers, and 27 tentatively identified non-target organic chemicals, were present in
secondary effluent entering tertiary treatment trains at a wastewater treatment plant and
two water reclamation facilities. The removal of these compounds by three different
tertiary treatment trains was investigated: coagulantassisted granular media filtration
(California Title-22 water, 22 CCR§ §6030 1-60357; Barclay [2006]), lime
clarification/reverse osmosis (lime/RO), and microfiltration-reverse osmosis (MF/RO).
Carbamazepine, clofibricacid, gemfibrozil, ibuprofen, p-toluenesulfonamide, caffeine,
butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT), and N-butyl
benzenesulfonamide (N-BBSA) were present at low to high nanogram-perliter levels in
Title 22 water.
The lime/RO product waters contained lower concentrations of clofibric acid, ibuprofen,
caffeine, BHA, and N-BBSA«1 0 to 71 ngIL) than their Title 22 counterparts. The MF/RO
treatment reduced concentrations to levels below their detection limits, although BHT
was present in MF/RO product water from one facility. The presence of the target
analytes in two surface waters used as raw drinking water sources and a recharged
groundwater was also examined. Surface waters used as raw drinking water sources
contained caffeine, BHA, BHT, and N-BBSA, while recharged groundwater contained
BHT, BRA, and N-BBSA. Nontarget compounds in recharged groundwater appeared to
be attenuated with increased residence time in the aquifer. Water Environ. Res., 79,

OW-2008-051 7 - Health Care Industry Study - Meeting
with Stericycle, July 23, 2009 - DCN 06938




The King County Industrial Waste Program (KCIW) issues discharge authorizations to
area hospitals that discharge wastewaterto the King County sewage system. The
discharge authorizations serve to ensure that hospital discharges meet the county's
local limits for pollutants, to protect human health and the environment and the public's
investment in wastewater facilities. A King County Public Rule regulates such
discharges to the sewer.
Medical waste handling and disposal is a concern to the public. This public concern has
resulted in responses by many state and local governments to regulate the treatment,
transport, and disposal of medical waste. The Federal response was The Medical
Waste Tracking Act, which was signed into law on November 1 , 1988. The Medical
Waste Tracking Act went into effect in June of 1989 and expired in June of 1991 . The
Act set up a program in four states that documented the handling of medical waste from
the point of generation until its final disposal. The act also required that medical waste
be both treated to eliminate or reduce its potential for causing disease and destroyed so
that it would no longer be recognizable as medical waste. After the Act expired, the
program was examined and it was found that the increased effort and expense of
tracking, treating, and destroying medical waste resulted in no increased benefit to
human health or the environment. The Utah infectious waste rules are based on
providing protection of health and the environment without setting undue burdens on
infectious waste generators.
MaineCare instituted new 15-day limits on initial prescriptions for various medications
that have been identified with high side effect profiles, high discontinuation rates, or
frequent dose adjustments.
Health care facilities, including, but are not limited to hospitals, physician's offices,
dental practices and veterinary hospitals, generate a variety of waste streams. Many of
these waste streams are regulated at the state and local level while others may be
governed by federal regulations.
There is a lot of information to process when considering Medicare. Knowing what
Medicare is and how it works will help you choose the program that will best meet your
individual needs. Use this helpful guide to get an understanding of the Medicare
program and how it can benefit you.
U.S. EPA Office of Water is conducting outreach meetings with health care industry
stakeholders to further its understanding of the industry and practices related to
disposal of unused Pharmaceuticals. EPA met with representatives from Stericycle on
April 16, 2009 to establish a dialogue with the medical waste management and disposal
company, to better understand the industry, and to discuss unused pharmaceutical
management and disposal from hospitals and long-term care facilities (LTCFs). EPA
and Stericycle met again on July 23, 2009.
This memorandum provides a summary of the meeting.

Pilot survey monitoring Pharmaceuticals and related
compounds in a sewage treatment plant located on the
Mediterranean coast - DCN 06951



Microconstituents, emerging containments, endocrine disrupting chemicals,
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and other natural and manmade
substances pose a new challenge to traditional municipal wastewater treatment plant
designers. These various contaminants and compounds are receiving increasing
attention as trace concentrations are being detected in waters worldwide. As federal
and state agencies begin to consider regulatory options, municipal wastewater
treatment facilities and facility designers need to develop options as typical facilities are
designed for 20-30 year build-out conditions.


The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in partnership with the
Statesl , biennially collects information regarding the generation, management, and
final disposition of hazardous wastes regulated under the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act of 1 976 (RCRA), as amended. The purpose of this 2007 National Biennial
Report is to communicate the findings of EPA's 2007 hazardous waste reporting data
collection efforts to the public, government agencies, and the regulated community.

Medical waste incinerators emit toxic air pollutants and are a major source of dioxins in
the environment. This resource book provides information regarding non-incineration
treatment technologies.
The purpose of these standards is to prevent the indirect discharge of pollutants to a
publicly-owned treatment works (POTW) which would:
(a) Pass through, interfere with, or otherwise be incompatible with the safe and
successful performance, operation, and maintenance of the POTW; (b) Cause the
POTW to violate any water quality standards specified in Env-Ws 1700; or (c)
Adversely impact sludge quality and prevent its use or disposal as other than a
hazardous waste.

A one-year monitoring study was performed to evaluate the occurrence, persistence
and fate of a group of 14 organic compounds in a sewage treatment plant (STP)
located in the south of Spain. These results are part of a more extensive study,
financed by the Spanish Ministry of Research with the aim to evaluate the traceability of
new pollutants on the Mediterranean coast and to determine the removal efficiency of
sewage treatment plants (STP) for these pollutants.
