a. The Permittee shall calculate monthly and annual TN Loads as follows:
i. Monthly TN Load (pounds/month) = TN x TMF x 8.34
Where:
TN = average Total Nitrogen concentration (mg/L) of the composite samples collected
during the month
TMF = Total Monthly Flow of wastewater discharged during the month (MG/month)
8.34 = conversion factor, from (mg/L x MG) to pounds
ii. Annual TN Load (pounds/year) = Sum of the twelve Monthly TN Loads for the calendar
year
b. The Permittee shall report monthly Total Nitrogen results (mg/L and pounds/month) in the final
discharge monitoring report for each quarter and shall report each year's results (pounds/year) with
the December report for that year.

i. the Permittee's annual TN Load is less than or equal to said limit, or
ii. the Permittee is a Co-Permittee Member of a compliance association.
c. The TN Load limit in this Permit (if any) may be modified as the result of allowable changes in
the Permittee's TN allocation.
i. Allowable changes include those resulting from purchase of TN allocation from the

ii. The Permittee may request a modification of the TN Load limit in this Permit to reflect
allowable changes in its TN allocation. Upon receipt of timely and proper application, the
Division will modify the permit as appropriate and in accordance with state and federal
program requirements.
iii. Changes in TN limits become effective on January 1 of the year following permit
modification. The Division must receive application no later than August 31 for changes

name/ownership changes).
YES This is a MORE COMPLEX EXPEDITED permit renewal (includes
Special Conditions (such as EAA, Wastewater Management Plan),
Conventional WTP, 303(d) listed, toxicity testing, instream monitoring,

case decision.
YES_ This permit CANNOT BE EXPEDITED for one of the following reasons:
• Major Facility (municipal/industrial)
• Minor Municipals with pretreatment program
• Minor Industrials subject to Fed Effluent Guidelines (lb/day limits for BOD, TSS, etc)
• Limits based on reasonable potential analysis (metals, GW remediation organics)
• Permitted flow > 0.5 MGD (requires full Fact Sheet)
• Permits determined by Basin Coordinator to be outside expedited process
