Section 212.70. Determination of Peshtigo river water quality related effluent limitations.

  Effluent limitations for point sources discharging BOD 5 to the Peshtigo river shall be calculated according to the procedures contained in this section. These limitations shall apply from May 1 to October 31 annually.

(1)  Determine baseline loads for each point source subject to the wasteload allocation.

(a) The baseline load for each publicly-owned point source located between milepoints 9.6 and 0.0 shall be calculated as follows: - See PDF for table

(b) The baseline load for each nonpublicly-owned point source located between milepoints 12.0 and 9.7 shall be calculated as follows: - See PDF for table

(2)  Determine the allocation for each point source.

(a) The allocation for each publicly-owned point source located between milepoints 9.6 and 0.0 shall be a reduction in its discharge to levels appearing in Table 1-p.

(b) The allocation for each nonpublicly-owned point source located between milepoints 12.0 and 9.6 shall be a reduction in its discharge to levels appearing in Table 2-p.

(3)  The flow and temperature conditions used to determine compliance with permit effluent limits shall be the representative average measurements of the flow and temperature of the previous day.
