issues (Special Conditions, 303(d) listed water, toxicity testing, instream monitoring, compliance

..
Ken,
After our discussion with the Regional Office, NPDES Permittin a r d that fecal coliform limitations shall be put in the
Town Plymouth's j DES permit renewal L The limits on the effluent will be a geometric mean not to exceed 200 / 100 ml
.--as a monthly average and 400/100 ml as a weekly average using daily samples. The narrative special condition will be
removed. NPDES would prefer to not make this revision until we do the renewal in 2022 but if it is necessary that the
revision be done before that, so the Town can get the funding for the disinfection system, pl
ease let John Hennessy
know. U..
c �
John,
The Town would either have to request the modification or NPDES would have to write an administrative letter to the
Town giving them a 60 day notification that DWR was going to modify the permit.
Thanks,
Julie

Subject: Plymouth NPDES Permit, Disinfection Condition
Hey Julie:
Sorry to bug you again, but we still haven't heard or received any letter or email from you regarding your decision on the
Plymouth NPDES Permit, Disinfection Condition and Fecal Coliform Limits.
Our Plymouth SRF funded project is bumping up against deadlines, and we have this project on hold waiting for some
word.
Thanks!
