47. Has the POTW experienced any difficulty in allocation? (for example: adjudication by an industry) ❑ Yes ® No
If yes, Explain.
48. How does the POTW decide on which pollutants to limit in the permits? Monitor for? (for example: were only those pollutants
listed on the application limited; categorical parameters; NPDES Pollutants of Concern)
Industrial Waste Survey is reviewed, Pollutants of Concern and Categorical Limits
49. How does the POTW decide what the monitoring frequency should be for the various pollutants in industry permits? Explain.
Depends on what the discharge from the industry consists of and historical data

50. Does the POTW currently have or during the past year had any permits under adjudication? ❑ Yes ® No
If yes, which industries? What was (will be) the outcome of the adjudication?

information is correct
56. How does the POTW decide where the sample point for an SIU should be located?
After Pretreatment and before Industrial discharge is mixed with another wastewater
