D. Definitions

3.

4.

The term "bypass" means the discharge of partially treated or untreatedsev,age from any device or structure of sewerage facDities'ue to a power

'aDure,equipment failure, hydraulic overload, and/or blockage in allor any part of the sewerage facilities. This is to distinguish it from anoverflow v,hich is the systematic discharge of a mixture of partially treated'r untreated, sewage and stormwater from any device or structure ofcombined sewerage facilities which is in excess of the downstream hydrauliccarrying capacity of those facilities.

The term "severe property damage" means substantial physical damageto property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them tobecome inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resourceswhich can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass.Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delaysin production.

The "average monthly flow".means the arithmetic mean of daDy flowmeasurements taken during a calendar month.

The "average monthly" mass discharge means the total discharge by weightduring a calendar month divided by the number of.days in the month thatthe facility wah operating. Where less than daily sampling is

required'y

this permit, the (average) monthly mass discharge shall be determinedby the summation of all the measured daDy discharge's by weight dividedby the number of days during the calendar month when the measurements

'eremade.

The "average weekly" mass discharge means the total discharge by weightduring a calendar week divided by the number of days in the week thatthe facility was operating. Where less than daDy sampling is requiredby this permit, the (average) weekly mess discharge shall be determinedby the summation of all the measured daDy discharges by. weight dividedby the number of days during the calendar week when the measurementswere made.

PART A

~ rPage 4 of 14

6. The "maximum daily" mass discharge means the total discharge by weightduring any'calendar day.

7. The "average monthly" effluent concentration means the arithmetic avera'geof all the daily determinations of concentration made during a calendarmonth.

8.

9.

The."average weekly" effluent concentration means the arithmetic averageof all the daily determinations of concentration made during a calendarweek.

The "maximum daily" effluent concentration means the daily determinationof concentration for any calendar day.

10. The "instantaneous maximum" concentration means the concentrationnot to be exceeded at any time in.any grab sample.

The "daily determination of concentration" means the concentrationof a composite sample taken during a calendar day or the arithmeticaverage of all grab samples taken during a calendar day.

12. The term "composite sample" means a combination of individual samplesobtained at regular intervals over a time period. Either the volume ofeach individual sample is proportional to discharge flow rates or'the samplinginterval (for constant volume samples) is proportional to the flow ratesover the time per iod used to produce the composite. The maximurh timeperiod between individual samples shall not exceed two hours.

13.

14;

15.

The term "grab sample" means an individual sample collected in lessthan 15 minutes.

The term "measured flow" means any method of liquid volume measurementthe accuracy of which has been previously demonstrated in engineeringpractice, or for which a relationship to absolute volume has been obtained.

The term'"estimate" means to be based on a technical evaluation of thesources contributing to the discharge including, but not limited to, pumpcapabilities, water meters and batch discharge volumes.

16.

17.

The term "Industrial User" means an establishment which dischargesor introduces industrial wastes into a Publicly Owned Treatment Works(POTW)..

A

The term "Publicly Owned Treatment Works" or "POTW" means a facilityas defined by Section 212 of the Clean Water Act which is owned by aState or Municipality, as defined by Section 502(4) of the Clean WaterAct, including any sewers that convey wastewater to such a treatment

'orks, but not including pipes, sewers or other conveyances'not connectedto a facility providing treatment. The term also means the municipalityas defined in Section 502(4) of the Clean Water Act which has jurisdictionover the indirect discharges to and the discharges from such a treatmentworks.

1. Nhere the permittee is a Publicly Owned Treatment Norks (POTW), thepermittee shall provide adequate notice as discussed in A(2) below tothe Department of the foDowing:

(a) Any new introduction of pollutants into the POTN from an IndustrialUser which would be subject to Sections 301 and 306 of the CleanWater Act if it were otherwise discharging directly into watersof the United States.

(b) Any substantial change in the volume or character of pollutantsbeing introduced into the POTN by an Industrial User which wasdischarging into the POTW at the time of issuance of this permit.

(c) Any change in the quality and quantity of effluent introduc d intothe POTN.

(d) The identity of significant Industrial Users served by the POTNwhich are subject to pretreatment standards adopted under Section307(b) of the Clean Nater Act; the POTN shall also identify the.character and'volume of pollutants discharged into the POTW bythe Industrial User.

2. The submission of the above information in the POTN's annual NasteloadManagement Report, required under the provisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 94,willnormally be considered as providing adequate notice to'the

Department.'owever,

if the above changes in industrial pollutant loadings to thePOTW are significant enough to warrant either modification or revocationand reissuance of this permit, then the permittee is required to meetthe provisions of Management Requirements B below.

3. The POTW shall require all Industrial Users to comply with the reportingrequirements of Sections 204(b), 307, and 308 of the Clean Nater Actand any regulations adopted thereunder, and the Clean Streams Law and
