SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
PARTE. TOXICITY TESTING DATA
POTWs meeting one or more of the following criteria must provide the results of whole effluent toxicity tests for acute or chronic toxicity for each of the
facility's discharge points: 1) POTWs with a design flow rate than
greater or equal to 1.0 mgd; 2) POTWs with a pretreatment program (or those that are
required to have one under 40 CFR Part 403); or 3) POTWs required by the permitting authority to submit data for these parameters.
• At a minimum, these results must include quarterly testing for a 12 -month period within the past 1 year using multiple species (minimum of two
species), or the results from four tests performed at least annually in the four and one-half years to the
prior application, provided the results
show no appreciable toxicity, and testing for acute and/or chronic toxicity, depending on the range of receiving water dilution. Do not include
information on combined sewer overflows in this section. All information
reported must be based on data collected through analysis conducted
using 40 CFR Part 136 methods. In addition, this data must comply with QA/QC requirements of 40 CFR Part 136
and other appropriate QA/QC
requirements for standard methods for analytes not addressed by 40 CFR Part 136.
• In addition, submit the results of any other whole effluent toxicity tests from the past four and one-half years. If a whole effluent toxicity test
conducted during the past four and one-half years revealed toxicity, provide any information on the
cause of the toxicity or any results of a
toxicity reduction evaluation, if one was conducted.
• If you have already submitted any of the information requested in Part E, you need not submit it again. Rather, provide the information
requested in question EA for previously submitted information. If EPA methods were not used, report the
reasons for using alternate methods.
If test summaries are available that contain all of the information requested below, they may be submitted in place of Part E.
If no biomonitoring data is required, do not complete Part E. Refer to the Application Overview for directions on which other sections of the form to
com lete.
