Prohibited Discharge Standards are somewhat general, national standards
applicable to all industrial users to a POTW, regardless of whether
or not the POTW has an approved pretreatment program or the industrial
user has been issued a permit. These standards are designed to protect
against pass through and interference, protect the POTW collection
system, and to promote worker safety and beneficial biosolids use.
These standards are listed in 40 CFR 403.5. |
