management of nutrients in state waters |
Purpose/Objective of Rule |
This new control regulation establishes numerical effluent limitations for many domestic wastewater treatment plants and industrial wastewater dischargers that are likely to have significant levels of nutrients in their discharges. It also describes requirements for other point source dischargers and voluntary steps for nonpoint sources to address nutrients.
It also establishes monitoring requirements for point source dischargers and a program aimed at monitoring of surface waters for nutrients and related parameters. This effort is geared toward better characterizing nutrient sources, and current nutrient conditions, to help inform future regulatory decisions regarding nutrients. |
