Permits & Engineering Comments:
This is a permit renewal for a discharge from an extended aeration treatment system with a nitrogenous
stage. No problems were noted in the files for the last renewal. The proposed 5/1 and 1.8 limits in the
wla were not instituted. P&E recommends that permit be renewed with 5/2 year round limits as in the
current permit. Monitoring data suggest that the facility is meeting these limits consistently. An
alternatives analysis in the file indicated that no alternative other than direct discharge is
available. The most recent classification rating indicated that this facility is a class II and not a class
III. Region: Please comment on appropriate classification for this facility, and on any alternatives
available other than direct discharge.
