Denise,

 

I reviewed your most recent submittal and I plan to approve it as submitted except for section 1.4(35). 

 

(35)  Pass Through.  A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the State in quantities or concentrations which, alone or in conjunction with a discharge or discharges from other sources, is a cause of violation of any requirement of the City’s NPDES permit (including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation).

 

The City included the definition of “Waters of the State” in section 1.4 (59); therefore, I assume that changing “Waters of the United States” to “waters of the State” was an oversight and I made the change.

 

See you soon!
