WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS <br /> CITY OF TRACY <br /> WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT <br /> SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY -7- <br /> specified in those requirements or, in the case of a new industrial user,upon <br /> commencement of the discharge. <br /> 5. The Discharger shall use the best practicable cost-effective control technique currently <br /> available to limit mineralization to no more than a reasonable increment. The Discharger <br /> shall comply with this limitation by (1) submitting not later than 15 September 1996 a <br /> Final Draft of the mineralization plan for approval and (2) implementing the approved <br /> plan. <br /> 6. The Discharger shall implement, as more completely set forth in 40 CFR 403.5, the <br /> necessary legal authorities,programs, and controls to ensure that the following <br /> incompatible wastes are not introduced to the treatment system, where incompatible <br /> wastes are: <br /> a. Wastes which create a fire or explosion hazard in the treatment works; <br /> b. Wastes which will cause corrosive structural damage to treatment works, but in no <br /> case wastes with a pH lower than 5.0, unless the works is specially designed to <br /> accommodate such wastes; <br /> c. Solid or viscous wastes in amounts which cause obstruction to flow in sewers, or <br /> which cause other interference with proper operation or treatment works; <br /> d. Any waste, including oxygen demanding pollutants (BOD,etc.), released in such <br /> volume or strength as to cause inhibition or disruption in the treatment works, and <br /> subsequent treatment process upset and loss of treatment efficiency; <br /> e. Heat in amounts that inhibit or disrupt biological activity in the treatment works, or <br /> that raise influent temperatures above 40°C (104°F), unless the treatment works is <br /> designed to accommodate such heat; <br /> f. Petroleum oil,nonbiodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral oil origin in <br /> amounts that will cause interference or pass through; <br /> g. Pollutants which result in the presence of toxic gases, vapors, or fumes within the <br /> treatment works in a quantity that may cause acute worker health and safety problems; <br /> and <br /> h. Any trucked or hauled pollutants, except at points predesignated by the Discharger. <br /> 7. The Discharger shall implement, as more completely set forth in 40 CFR 403.5, the legal <br /> authorities, programs, and controls necessary to ensure that indirect discharges do not <br /> introduce pollutants into the sewerage system that,either alone or in conjunction with a <br /> discharge or discharges from other sources: <br /> a. Flow through the system to the receiving water in quantities or concentrations that <br /> cause a violation of this Order, or <br /> b. Inhibit or disrupt treatment processes, treatment system operations, or sludge <br /> processes,use, or disposal and either cause a violation of this Order or prevent <br /> sludge use or disposal in accordance with this Order. <br /> s <br />
