Wasteload Allocation Summary
(approach taken, correspondence with region, EPA, etc.)
The dilution factor for this discharge is 301:1. Bill Anderson (ARO) was contacted about the
appropriateness of a fecal limit. He indicated that the resort should receive one since primary
recreation occurs downstream from the discharge. However, according to SOP, a fecal limit
cannot be justified without effluent or instream data. For this reason, monitoring only will be
recommended unless the region has additional information which will support a limit. This stream
has been classified as trout waters, so dechlorination will be required if the facility uses chlorine to
disinfect.

New facility information
Parameter(s) Affected
Fecal/Chlorine
x Parameter(s) are water quality limited. For some parameters, the available load capacity of
the immediate receiving water will be consumed. This may affect future water quality based
effluent limitations for additional dischargers within this portion of the watershed.
No parameters are water quality limited, but this discharge may affect future allocations.

Has the facility demonstrated the ability to meet the proposed new limits with existing treatment
facilities? Yes No
If no, which parameters cannot be met?

Special Instructions or Conditions
Wasteload sent to EPA? (Major) (Y or N)
(If yes, then attach schematic, toxics spreadsheet, copy of model, or, if not modeled, then old
assumptions that were made, and description of how it fits into basinwide plan)
Additional Information attached? (Y or N) If yes, explain with attachments.

(municipals only)? N/A
2. Special monitoring requests: None
3. Additional effluent limits requests: None
4. Other:
PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This is a request for permit renewal. The waste load indicates a
need to do upstream and downstream fecal samples to determine the
need for effluent bacteria limits. Since the discharge pipe is in
the campground, bacteria limits at the effluent pipe are
recommended. The facility has a chlorine contact tank and
dechlorination would not require extensive modification. Permit
renewal with fecal and chlorine effluent limits is recommended
with no stream sampling required.
