WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS _2_ <br />GENERAL ORDER FOR DISCHARGE OF <br />GROUND WATER FROM CLEANUP OF <br />PETROLEUM FUEL POLLUTION <br />TO SURFACE WATERS <br />consist of the Report of Waste Discharge and filing fee and also as a <br />minimum, the contents detailed in Attachment A, Application Requirements. <br />6. This Order shall apply to individual property owners and/or operators <br />("Discharger") to whom a Notification of Applicability has been issued by <br />the Executive Officer. Individual dischargers are not covered by this <br />Order until they have been issued a Notification of Applicability by the <br />Executive Officer. <br />1. The primary pollutants in fuels are: Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons <br />(gasoline, diesel, kerosine, fuel oil and heavier ranges); Benzene; <br />Toluene; Xylene; Ethylbenzene; and Tetraethyl Lead. <br />8. Existing wastewater treatment technology, primarily utilizing air <br />stripping and/or activated carbon, is capable of dependably removing these <br />constituents to concentrations which are generally non-detectable by <br />current analytical technology. The commonly achieved detection levels are <br />as follows: <br />Detection Analytical <br />Constituent Level Units Method <br />Total Petroleum 50 Mcg/1 EPA Method 8015 <br />Hydrocarbons <br />Benzene 0.5 ug/1 EPA Method 602 <br />Toluene 0.5 ug/1 EPA Method 602 <br />Xylene 0.5 µg/1 EPA Method 602 <br />Ethylbenzene 0.5 gg/1 EPA Method 602 <br />Tetraethyl lead 1 µg/l ,Graphite <br />(as total lead) Furnace AA <br />9. Receiving water quality limits for <br />the constituents of concern can be <br />found in the <br />Inland Surface Waters <br />Plan and are as <br />follows: <br />Constituent <br />Level <br />units <br />Consideration <br />Total Lead <br />1.34 <br />ug/l <br />Aquatic life <br />(varies with <br />as a 4 -day <br />(at a hardness <br />haraness) <br />average <br />of 50 mg/1) <br />Benzene <br />0.34 <br />µg/1 <br />Drinking water <br />as a 30 -day <br />supply <br />average <br />Toluene <br />300 <br />jug/l <br />Human health <br />as a 30 -day <br />average <br />
