CFR /  Title 40  /  Part 423  /  Sec. 423.17 Pretreatment standards for new sources (PSNS).

Except as provided in 40 CFR 403.7, any new source subject to this subpart part which introduces pollutants into a publicly owned treatment works must comply with 40 CFR part 403 and the following pretreatment standards for new sources (PSNS).

(a) There shall be no discharge of polychlorinated biphenyl compounds such as those used for transformer fluid.

(b) The pollutants discharged in chemical metal cleaning wastes shall not exceed the concentration listed in the following table: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

standards

Pollutant or pollutant property ------------------------

Maximum for 1 day (mg/

(c) [Reserved--Nonchemical Metal Cleaning Wastes].

(d)(1) The pollutants discharged in cooling tower blowdown shall not exceed the concentration listed in the following table: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1) The pollutants discharged in cooling tower blowdown shall not exceed the concentration listed in the following table: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

standards

Pollutant or pollutant property ------------------------

Maximum for any time

(mg/l)------------------------------------------------------------------------The 126 priority pollutants (Appendix A)

contained in chemicals added for cooling tower

maintenance, except:

Chromium, total.............................. 0.2

Zinc, total.................................. 1.0------------------------------------------------------------------------

(2) At the permitting authority's discretion, instead of the monitoring in 40 CFR 122.11(b), compliance with the limitations for the 126 priority pollutants in paragraph (d)(1) of this section may be determined by engineering calculations which demonstrate that the regulated pollutants are not detectable in the final discharge by the analytical methods in 40 CFR part 136.

(e) There shall be no discharge of wastewater pollutants from fly ash transport water.
