obtain the actual volume discharged. Logs may be faxed (704-638-8541), mailed or emailed to the
Pretreatment Coordinator.
5.Permittee shall also show on each monthly log,a calculation of:(a)the total flow from the first day of each month
through the first day of the following month,and(b)the total flow for each 24 hour period.The calculated flow
must be converted by the permittee to units of gallons or million gallons as appropriate.
B.Alternate Flow Measurement Method
The flow discharged by any permittee not required to maintain a discharge flow metering system shall be considered
equal to 100% of the permittee's total water consumption if measured by devices maintained by Salisbury-Rowan
Utilities,except that:
1.If permittee demonstrates that a constant ratio exists between total wastewater volume discharged and total water
consumed,the Environmental Services Division of Salisbury-Rowan Utilities may,at its discretion,allow the
permittee to calculate total discharge flow from total consumption based on the that ratio,which must be periodically
re-established to the satisfaction of Environmental Services.
2.If the permittee demonstrates to the satisfaction of Environmental Services that a significant fraction of water
consumption is routinely retained in a product and is not discharged to the sewer system,then the Environmental
Services Division of Salisbury-Rowan Utilities may,at its discretion,allow for the fraction of water consumption,
which is retained in the product.
3.If an allowance is made for discharge flow as described in paragraph 1 or 2,above,the resulting adjusted discharge
flow shall be used only for compliance with mass limits of this permit,if present herein.
C.Calibration of Flow Measurement Devices
Each permittee required to measure discharge flow must consistently maintain such equipment in operating condition
and within design accuracy specifications. Calibration shall be performed at least once during each semi-annual report
period as stated in section 7.A.(8),preceding.
