WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS ORDER NO. R5-2003-0044 -3- <br /> GENERAL ORDER FOR LAND DISPOSAL <br /> OF GROUNDWATER OR SURFACE WATER <br /> FROM CLEANUP OF PETROLEUM FUEL POLLUTION <br /> 11. Treated wastewater may either be disposed of by subsurface injection, subsurface <br /> infiltration, surface infiltration, evaporation, land spreading, spray disposal, reclaimed <br /> through irrigation of landscape or selected crops, or industrial processes. <br /> 12. The discharge of wastewater from a treatment system, other than to a community sanitary <br /> waste collection system, is a discharge of waste that could affect the quality of the waters of <br /> the State. Requirements must be prescribed for any discharge of waste that may affect the <br /> quality of the waters of the State, in accordance with California Water Code Section 13263. <br /> 13. A separate Notice of Intent must be filed for each discharge intended for coverage under this <br /> Order. The Notice of Intent shall consist of the Report of Waste Discharge, filing fee and, at <br /> a minimum, the contents detailed in Attachment A, entitled "Application Requirements". <br /> 14. The combined category of discharges covered by this Order have a Threat to Water Quality <br /> (TTWQ) and Complexity (CPLX) of 3B as defined in Title 23 California Code of <br /> Regulations (CCR) Division 3, Chapter 9, Section 2200 (CCR). Discharges with a category <br /> TTWQ of "3" are those discharges of waste that could degrade water quality without <br /> violating water quality objectives, or cause a minor impairment of designated beneficial <br /> uses. Discharges that use physical, chemical, or biological treatment systems have a CPLX <br /> category of"B". <br /> 15. Authorization to discharge will only be extended to persons who have filed the requisite <br /> Notice of Intent and have in their possession a `Notification of Applicability" from the <br /> Executive Officer. For purposes of this Order, those persons are "Dischargers" as used <br /> herein. <br /> 16. Best Practicable Treatment and Control technology includes, but is not limited to, air <br /> stripping and/or activated carbon and other processes capable of dependably removing <br /> petroleum fuel constituents to concentrations that are non-detectable by current analytical <br /> technology. Biotreatment, UV/Ozone, ion exchange resins, and other treatment technologies <br /> may be proposed, but if utilized must achieve the same treatment standard. <br /> 17. The current acceptable analytical methods are as follows: <br /> Analytical ** <br /> Constituent Units Method <br /> Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons /1 EPA Method 8015B/5030 & <br /> µg <br /> Gasoline, Diesel, and Fuel Oil 8015B/3510 & 8260B <br /> Benzene µg/i EPA Method 802113/826013 <br />
