Executive
Summary
During
the
Screening
Level
Review
phase
of
the
2004/
2005
planning
process,
canned
and
preserved
fruits
and
vegetables
processing
was
one
of
eight
industrial
categories
identified
solely
through
Factor
4
concerns.
Issues
driving
the
concerns
include
1)
discharges
of
nutrients
and
conventional
pollutants,
2)
no
limits
for
biochemical
oxygen
demand
(
BOD),
and
3)
improvements
in
industry
capacity
to
control
discharges.
Based
on
information
reported
to
the
Toxic
Release
Inventory
(
TRI)
and
the
Permit
Compliance
System
(
PCS),
toxic
discharges
from
coal
mining
operations
are
low
relative
to
other
industrial
categories.
However,
most
of
these
pollutants
do
not
have
toxic
weighting
factors,
so
discharges
of
these
substances
cannot
be
assessed
in
terms
of
potential
risk.
For
the
toxic
weighted
pound
equivalent
(
TWPE)
discharged,
a
few
facilities
generally
drive
these
discharges
for
this
industry.
In
addition,
a
number
of
potential
new
subcategories
were
identified
by
stakeholders
and
are
discussed
here.
(
Note:
the
new
subcategories
are
not
included
in
any
of
the
tables
or
analyses.)

The
information
in
the
record
at
this
time
does
not
support
a
decision
to
revise
these
effluent
guidelines.
In
the
event
that
stakeholders
provide
additional
data
and
supporting
information,
on
any
of
the
issues
identified
above,
EPA
will
reevaluate
them
at
that
time.
In
the
absence
of
revisions
to
the
effluent
guidelines,
these
concerns
could
be
addressed
through
improved
information
dissemination
and
outreach
by
EPA.
The
Agency
could
prepare
a
fact
sheet
with
answers
to
frequently
asked
questions
(
FAQs),
including
the
names
of
current
contacts
within
the
Office
of
Water.
In
addition,
the
Agency
could
announce
the
availability
of
this
fact
sheet
at
the
regular
meetings
for
permit
writers
and
pretreatment
coordinators
held
by
the
Office
of
Wastewater
Management
(
OWM)
and
through
internet
postings
and
email
alerts
to
the
Engineering
and
Analysis
Division
(
EAD)
stakeholders
mailing
list.
Finally,
due
to
the
relatively
small
number
of
facilities
discharging
the
bulk
of
the
TWPE,
EPA
could
also
provide
assistance
to
permit
writers
in
preparing
BPJ­
based
permits.

Background
In
preparation
for
proposing
the
Preliminary
Effluent
Guidelines
Program
Plan
for
2004/
2005
("
Preliminary
Plan,"
published
in
February
2004),
EPA
analyzed
four
factors
identified
in
the
draft
"
National
Strategy
for
Industrial
Clean
Water"(
Edocket
OW­
2003­
0074­
0215).
See
Attachment
A
for
more
background
about
the
304(
m)
planning
Process.
The
four
factors
focus
on:
1
Potential
impacts
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
Preliminary
results
are
summarized
in
the
"
Factor
1
Analysis:
Human
Health
and
Environmental
Impacts
 
Status
of
Screening
Level
Review
Phase"
(
Edocket
OW­
2003­
0074­
0410).
2
Identification
of
an
applicable
and
demonstrated
technology,
process
change,
or
pollution
prevention
alternative
that
can
effectively
reduce
pollutants
discharged.
Preliminary
results
are
summarized
in
the
"
Factor
2
Analysis:
Technology
Advances
and
Process
Changes
 
Status
of
Screening
Level
Review
Phase."
(
Edocket
OW­
2003­
0074­
0287).
3
Evaluation
of
the
cost,
performance,
and
affordability
of
the
technology,
process
change,
or
pollution
prevention
measures
identified
using
the
second
factor.
4
Implementation

concerns.
Preliminary
results
are
presented
in
the
"

Considerations
 
Status
of

Phase"
(
Edocket
OW­
2003­
0074­
0329)

When
all
of
the
results
were
integrated
prior
to
proposing
the
Preliminary
Plan,
EPA
determined
that
8
point
source
categories
with
existing
effluent
guidelines
had
been
identified
solely
through
Factor
4
concerns.
(
See
list
in
the
Attachment
B.)
In
order
to
determine
the
best
course
of
action
to
address
these
concerns,
EPA
performed
an
analysis
of
issues
and
potential
solutions
for
each
of
the
8
categories.
The
results
of
that
analysis
for
Fruits
and
Vegetables
Processing
are
presented
in
this
report.

The
Canned
and
Preserved
Fruits
and
Vegetables
Processing
point
source
category
is
regulated
at
40
CFR
407.
See
Attachment
C
for
the
applicability
and
regulatory
background.
This
point
source
category
includes
facilities
reporting
under
Standard
Industrial
Classification
(
SIC)
industry
group
203,
Canned,
Frozen,
and
Preserved
Fruits
and
Vegetables.
Specifically,
it
includes
SIC
2033
(
Canned
Fruits,
Vegetables,
Preserves,
Jams,
and
Jellies),
2034
(
Dried
and
Dehydrated
Fruits,
Vegetables,
and
Soup
Mixes),
2035
(
Pickled
Fruits
and
Vegetables,
Vegetable
Sauces,
and
Seasonings),
SIC
2037
(
Frozen
Fruits,
Fruit
Juices,
and
Vegetables),
and
SIC
2096
(
Potato
Chips,
Corn
Chips,
and
Similar
Snacks).
Juice
manufacturing
(
covered
by
SIC
2033
and
2037)
was
identified
at
a
subcategory
of
concern
during
the
Factor
4
analysis.

Based
on
comments
and
information
received
by
stakeholders,
EPA
also
evaluated
whether
it
should
consider
additional
subcategories
of
the
Canned
and
Preserved
Fruits
and
Vegetable
Processing
ELG
for
Distilled
and
Blended
Liquors,
SIC
Code
2085;
Malt
Beverages,
SIC
Code
2082;
and
Soybean
Oil
Mills,
SIC
Code
2075.
EPA
determined
it
was
appropriate
to
consider
these
industrial
operations
as
potential
new
subcategories
of
part
407
because
the
processes,
operations,
wastewaters,
and
pollutants
at
these
plants
are
similar
to
those
at
fruit
and
vegetable
processing
plants.
Each
of
these
potential
subcategories
is
discussed
in
the
Possible
Solutions
section
of
this
report.

Wastewater
Characteristics
and
Pollutant
Sources
Fruit
and
vegetable
processing
is
seasonal
for
most
producers.
Water
use
and
wastewater
pollutant
loads
vary
according
to
the
specific
raw
material
processes
(
e.
g.,
2,400
gal/
ton
apples
to
17,000
gal/
ton
cauliflower).
Total
pollutant
loads
are
directly
correlated
to
the
amount
of
water
used
in
processing.
Water
conservation
practices
can
reduce
pollutant
loads.
Most
processors
employ
secondary
(
biological)
treatment.

Treatment
Technology
and
Pollution
Prevention
Standard
treatment
is
biological
treatment
with
primary
solids
removal,
oil
and
grease
removal,
and
neutralization
(
pH
adjustment)
depending
on
products.
Treatment
systems
must
be
sufficiently
robust
to
handle
seasonal
variations
in
pollutant
loads.

Direct
discharge
plants
may
disinfect
wastewater
with
chlorine
prior
to
discharge.
Advanced
treatment
would
replace
chlorine
disinfection
with
ozone
or
ultraviolet
light.

Most
advances
involve
water
conservation
and
other
pollution
prevention
practices.

(

In
general,
responders
were
concerned
with
the
discharge
of
nutrients,
as
well
as
overloading
publicly
owned
treatment
works
(
POTWs)
and
small
streams
(
for
direct
dischargers)
with
conventional
pollutants
such
as
BOD.
Responders
identified
several
specific
industries
as
having
such
characteristics,
including
vegetables
processing.
Other
issues
identified
include
non­
approved
pretreatment
processes
in
relation
to
juice
manufacturing.

Permitting
Authorities
(
Section
2.5
of
the
"
Factor
4
Analysis")
State
permitting
authorities
(
Washington)
suggest
updating
these
guidelines
for
both
direct
and
indirect
dischargers.
Direct
dischargers
are
performing
well
below
the
limits,
and
permitting
authorities
have
found
it
difficult
to
address
that
gap
effectively
and
lower
discharges.
In
addition,
permitting
authorities
suggest
that
revising
these
guidelines
could
address
dissolved
oxygen
problems,
since
there
are
no
water
quality
criteria
for
BOD
(
biological
oxygen
demand)
and
no
equitable
way
to
determine
the
farfield
impacts
of
BOD.

Concerns
Identified
in
Comments
to
Proposal
Stakeholders
recommended
that
EPA
consider
additional
subcategories
for
this
industrial
category:
1)
Distilled
and
Blended
Liquors,
SIC
Code
2085;
2)
Malt
Beverages,
SIC
Code
2082;
and
3)
Soybean
Oil
Mills,
SIC
Code
2075.
Each
is
discussed
in
the
paragraphs
that
follow.

Distilled
and
Blended
Liquors
Based
on
information
in
the
1997
economic
census,
EPA
estimates
there
are
60
distilled
and
blended
liquor
facilities
in
the
United
States.
EPA's
primary
sources
of
wastewater
data
for
this
industry
is
information
reported
to
TRI
and
PCS
for
the
year
2000.
Three
facilities
reported
information
to
TRI
in
2000.
Of
these,
two
report
zero
discharge
and
one
reports
direct
discharge.
The
total
toxic
pounds
reported
by
the
direct
discharger
in
2000
was
driven
by
chlorine
and
was
78
toxic
weighted
pound
equivalents
(
TWPE).
Twenty­
seven
facilities
reported
direct
discharges
to
PCS
in
2000.
Of
these,
7
were
major
dischargers
and
20
were
minor
discharges.
Detailed
discharge
information
for
the
7
major
dischargers
in
PCS
indicates
that
the
total
toxic
pounds
discharged
by
these
7
facilities
was
94
TWPE.

Malt
Beverages
Based
on
information
in
the
1997
economic
census,
EPA
estimates
there
are
529
malt
beverage
facilities
in
the
United
States.
EPA's
primary
sources
of
wastewater
data
for
this
industry
is
information
reported

in
2000.
Of
these,
13
were
indirect
dischargers,
5
were
direct

and
9
were

The
total
toxic

were
minor
discharges.
Detailed
discharge
information
for
the
4
major
dischargers
in
PCS
indicates
that
the
total
toxic
pounds
discharged
by
these
facilities
was
25,781
TWPE.
One
facility
contributed
97%
of
the
TWPE
from
chlorine.

information
in

EPA
concludes
that
with
a
few
exceptions,
discharges
from
malt

facilities
rank
low
in
term
of
toxic

discharged.

Soybean
Oil
Mills
Based
on
information
in
the
1997
economic
census,
EPA
estimates
there
are
118
soybean
oil
mills
in
the
United
States.
EPA's
primary
sources
of
wastewater
data
for
this
industry
is
information
reported
to
TRI
and
PCS
for
the
year
2000.
Sixty­
five
soybean
oil
mills
reported
information
to
TRI
in
2000.
Of
these,
42
were
indirect
dischargers,
6
were
direct
dischargers,
4
were
both
indirect
and
direct
dischargers
and
13
were
zero
dischargers.
The
total
toxic
pounds
reported
by
all
malt
beverage
facilities
in
TRI
was
12,991
TWPE
with
two
direct
discharging
facility
contributing
98%
of
the
TWPE
from
sodium
nitrite
and
chlorine.
Nineteen
facilities
reported
direct
discharges
to
PCS
in
2000.
Of
these,
1
was
a
major
dischargers
and
the
remainder
were
minor
discharges.
Detailed
discharge
information
for
the
single
major
dischargers
in
PCS
indicates
that
the
facility's
permit
only
includes
limitations
for
conventional
pollutants.
Therefore,
the
TWPE
estimate
from
the
PCS
facilities
is
zero
(
0)
TWPE.
Based
on
the
information
in
TRI
and
PCS,
EPA
concludes
that
with
a
few
exceptions,
discharges
from
soybean
oil
mills
rank
low
in
term
of
toxic
pounds
discharged.

Additional
Concerns
Identified
Post­
Proposal
One
stakeholder
noted
that
POTWs
would
also
benefit
from
more
EPA
assistance
in
managing
high
strength
wastewater
(
BOD,
TSS,
Ammonia).
EPA
lists
these
among
the
15
POC's
in
the
new
Local
Limits
Guidance
Manual,
however
conventional
pollutant
management
it
is
not
integrated
into
many
aspects
of
this
manual.
In
addition,
the
pretreatment
community
should
be
reminded
of
the
relationship
between
accepting
high
strength
BOD
wastewater,
and
meeting
ammonia
limits.

Despite
potential
overloading,
POTWs
often
continue
to
accept
conventional
pollutants
such
as
BOD,
due
to
their
ability
to
collect
surcharges
on
those
pollutants.
There
is
a
tendency
for
them
to
continue
to
accept
these
pollutants
in
order
to
increase
income.
However,
in
addition
to
overloading
the
POTW
and
impairing
its
effectiveness,
the
pollutants
and
their
by­
products
are
degrading
the
infrastructure
of
the
POTWs.
This
leads
to
collapse
of
sewer
pipes
and
the
resulting
damage
to
streets
and
to
human
health
(
via
the
release
of
odors
and
volatile
pollutants).
The
cost
of
repairs
is
often
paid
by
taxpayers.
In
some
areas,
municipalities
routinely
clean
lines
clogged
by
oil
and
grease,
again
at
taxpayer
expense
instead
of
controlling
it
at
the
source.

Possible
Solutions
EPA
appreciates
all
comments
and
suggestions
provided
by
the
stakeholders
and
EPA
Regional
staff.
However,
as
with
any
comments
received
by
the
Agency,
EPA
cannot
address
these
suggestions
without
adequate
supporting
data.
Some
stakeholders
identified
nutrient
discharges
from
fruit
and
vegetable
processing
plants
as
a
concern.
Information
in
PCS
and
TRI
does
not
indicate
that
fruit
and
vegetable
processing
plants
are
discharging
significant
quantities
of
nutrients
relative
to
other
industrial
categories.
State
permitting
authorities
also
suggested
that
EPA
should
revise
the
existing
guidelines
because
dischargers
are
performing
well
below
the
limits.
Because
TRI
and
PCS
information
indicate
toxic
discharges
from
fruit
and
vegetable
processing
plants
are
small
relative
to
other
industries,
EPA
has
concluded
that
a
revision
would
provide
only
small
incremental
gains,
if
any.
In
the
event
that
stakeholders
provide
additional
data
and
supporting
information,
on
these
or
any
of
the
issues
identified
above,
EPA
will
reevaluate
them
at
that
time.
In
the
absence
of
revisions
to
the
effluent
guidelines,
these
concerns
could
be
addressed
through
improved
information
dissemination
and
outreach
by
EPA.

Discharges
of
nutrients
and
conventional
pollutants:
EPA
could
provide
more
assistance
in
managing
high
strength
wastewater
(
BOD,
TSS,
Ammonia).
One
way
would
be
to
integrate
management
of
conventional
pollutants
into
its
new
Local
Limits
Guidance
Manual.
An
update
of
the
1971
document
"
Equitable
Recovery
of
Industrial
Waste
Treatment
Costs"
could
be
helpful
POTW's
needing
to
manage
their
capacity
and
recover
the
costs
for
high
strength
users
(&
users
with
high
peaking
factors
for
flows
or
loadings).
Water
Environment
Federation
(
WEF)
or
its
research
arm
(
WERF)
may
currently
be
working
on
producing
a
related
document,
and
EPA
could
coordinate
its
efforts
with
them.
The
Engineering
and
Analysis
Division
(
EAD)
can
share
these
concerns
with
the
Office
of
Wastewater
Management
(
OWM)
to
assist
them
in
improving
the
implementation
of
these
effluent
guidelines.

Currently,
Region
V
is
addressing
the
problem
of
publicly
owned
treatment
works
(
POTWs)
accepting
conventional
pollutants
beyond
the
point
of
overloading
by
requiring
POTWs
with
approved
programs
to
include
conventional
pollutants
in
their
local
limits.
This
requires
that
the
POTW
set
an
upper
limit
on
the
amount
of
conventional
pollutants
it
can
receive
based
on
plant
design,
and
to
allocate
that
load
among
its
dischargers.
For
POTWs
without
approved
programs,
the
Region
has
had
to
resort
to
legal
action.
They
are
also
addressing
oil
&
grease
issues
through
SSO
regulations.
EPA
could
offer
non­
regulatory
assistance
in
the
form
of
general
guidance
on
ways
to
control
BOD,
and
broader
dissemination
of
the
Agency's
guidance
on
setting
local
limits.
In
addition,
the
Water
Environment
Federation
(
WEF)
is
preparing
a
new
Manual
of
Practice
(
MOP)
titled
Financing
and
Charges
for
Wastewater
Systems
­
MOP
27
which
is
expected
to
elaborate
on
how
to
establish
a
fair
and
effective
surcharge
program.
Once
this
MOP
is
available,
EPA
could
include
it
in
it's
informational
materials.

No
limits
for
BOD:

the
suggestions
discussed
in
the

Additional
subcategories:
Based
on
the
information
available
at
this
time,
EPA
has
concluded
it
is
not
appropriate
to
develop
new
ELGs
for
distilled
and
blended
liquors
under
part
407
because
discharges
from
this
potential
subcategory
rank
low
in
terms
of
TWPE.
EPA
has
also
concluded
it
is
not
appropriate
to
develop
new
ELGs
for
malt
beverages
or
for
soybean
oil
mills
under
part
407,
because
only
a
few
facilities
drive
the
TWPE
for
each
of
these
industries.

Summary
of
Potential
Solutions:
The
concerns
for
overloading
could
be
addressed
through
improved
information
dissemination
and
outreach
by
EPA.
The
Agency
could
prepare
a
fact
sheet
with
answers
to
frequently
asked
questions
(
FAQs),
including
available
and
upcoming
guidance,
which
could
be
posted
on
EPA's
web
site.
In
addition,
the
Agency
could
announce
the
availability
of
this
fact
sheet,
and
the
name
of
the
current
EAD
staff
available
to
answer
questions
at
the
regular
meetings
for
permit
writers
and
pretreatment
coordinators
held
by
OWM
and
also
through
email
alerts
to
the
EAD
mailing
list.
Finally,
due
to
the
relatively
small
number
of
facilities
discharging
the
bulk
of
the
TWPE,
EPA
could
also
provide
assistance
to
permit
writers
in
preparing
BPJ­
based
permits.

CWA
Section
304(

requires
EPA
to
establish
a
schedule
for
the
annual
review
and
revision
of
all
existing
effluent
guidelines
and
to
identify
categories
of
point
sources
discharging
toxic
or
non­
conventional
pollutants
for
which
EPA
has
not
published
effluent
guidelines.
To
accomplish
this
review,
EPA
conducted
a
screening­
level
analysis
using
readily
available
information
from
EPA's
Permit
Compliance
System
(
PCS)
and
Toxics
Release
Inventory
(
TRI)
databases.
EPA
estimated
the
mass
of
pollutants
discharged
from
each
category,
weighted
the
pollutant
releases
based
on
chemical
toxicity,
and
ranked
the
categories
based
on
the
toxicweighted
pollutant
releases.

In
addition
to
reported
discharges
in
PCS
and
TRI,
EPA
used
other
readily
available
data,
as
well
as
information
from
public
outreach,
including
industry

recommended
by

Information
from

and
Toxics

(
TRI)
databases
were
used
to
create
the
PCSLoads2000
and
TRIReleases2000
databases.
These
databases
were
the
primary
source
of
information
used
to
conduct
this
review.
Since
this
industry
ranked
low
during
the
screening
phase,
however,
EPA
did
not
verify
any
of
the
information
reported
to
PCS
and
TRI,
and
has
used
it
as
reported.

TRIReleases2000
The
Toxic

is
the
major
source
of
data
for
the
TRIReleases2000

and
Community
Right­

(

Each
year,
facilities
that
meet
certain
thresholds
must
report
their
releases
and
other
waste
management
activities
for
listed
toxic
chemicals.
That
is,
facilities
must
report
the
quantities
of
toxic
chemicals
recycled,
collected
and
combusted
for
energy
recovery,
treated
for
destruction,
or
disposed
of.
A
separate
report
must
be
filed
for
each
chemical
that
exceeds
the
reporting
threshold.
The
TRI
list
of
chemicals
for
reporting
year
2000
includes
more
than
600
chemicals
and
chemical
categories.
For
this
review,
EPA
used
data
for
reporting
year
2000,
because
they
were
the
most
recent
available
at
the
time
the
review
began.

There
are
three
criteria
that
a
facility
must
meet
to
be
required
to
submit
a
TRI
report
for
that
reporting
year.
The
criteria
are:

(
1)
SIC
Code
Determination:
Facilities
in
SIC
Codes
20
through
39,
seven
additional
SIC
codes
outside
this
range,
and
federal
facilities
must
concern
themselves
with
TRI
reporting.
EPA
rarely
checks
or
refutes
facility
claims
regarding
the
SIC
code
identification.
The
primary
SIC
code
determines
TRI
reporting.

(
2)
Number
of
Employees:
Facilities
must
have
10
or
more
full­
time
employees
or
their
equivalent.
EPA
defines
a
"
full­
time
equivalent"
as
a
person
that
works
2,000
hours
in
the
reporting
year
(
there
are
several
exceptions
and
special
circumstances
that
are
well­
defined
in
the
TRI
reporting
instructions).

(
3)
Activity
Thresholds:
If
the
facility
is
in
a
covered
SIC
code
and
has
10
or
more
fulltime
employee
equivalents
it
must
conduct
an
activity
threshold
analysis
for
every
chemical
and
chemical
category
on
the
current
TRI
list.
The
facility
must
determine
whether
it
manufactures,
processes,
OR
otherwise
uses
each
chemical
at
or
above
the
appropriate
activity
threshold.
Reporting
thresholds
are
not
based
on
the
amount
of
release.
All
TRI
thresholds
are
based
on
mass,
not
concentration.
Different
thresholds
apply
for
persistent
bioaccumulative
toxic
(
PBT)
chemicals
than
for
non­
PBT
chemicals.

In
TRI,
facilities
report
annual
loads
released
to
the
environment
of
each
toxic
chemical
or
chemical
category
that
meets
reporting
requirements.
They
must
report
onsite
releases
to
air,
receiving
streams,
disposal
to
land,
underground
wells,
and
several
other
categories.
They
must
also
report
the
amount
of
toxic
chemicals
in
wastes
transferred
to
off­
site
locations,
including
discharges
to
POTWs
and
other
off­
site
locations,
such
as
commercial
waste
disposal
facilities.

For
this
review,
EPA
focused
on
the
amount
of
chemicals
facilities
reported
either
discharging
directly
to
a
receiving
stream
or
transferring
to
a
POTW.
For
facilities
discharging
directly
to
a
stream,
the
loads
were
taken
directly
from
the
reported
TRI
data
for
calendar
year
2000.
For
facilities
that
transfer
toxic
chemicals
to
POTWs,
EPA
first
adjusted
the
TRI
pollutant
loads
reported
to
be
transferred
to
POTWs
to
account
for
pollutant
removal
that
occurs
at
the
POTW
prior
to
discharge
to
the
receiving
stream.
This
adjustment
was
made
using

RSEI)
model
(
see
Section
2.1.1
of
the
docket
for
more
information
on
TRI
and
the
RSEI
model).

Reporting
facilities
are
not
required
to
sample
and
analyze
wastestreams
to
determine
the
quantities
of
toxic
chemicals
released.
They
may
estimate
releases
based
on
mass
balance
calculations,
published
emission
factors,
site­
specific
emission
factors,
or
other
approaches.
Facilities
are
required
to
indicate,
by
a
reporting
code,
the
basis
of
their
release
estimate.
TRI's
reporting
guidance
is
that
for
chemicals
reasonably
expected
to
be
present
but
measured
below
the
detection
limit,
facilities
should
use
one
half
the
detection
limit
to
estimate
the
mass
released.
The
guidance
is
slightly
different
for
dioxins
and
dioxin­
like
compounds
in
that
it
allows
non­
detects
to
be
treated
as
zero.

TRI
provides
the
option
for
facilities
to
report
releases
as
specific
numbers
or
as
ranges,
if
appropriate.
Specific
estimates
are
encouraged
if
data
are
available
to
ensure
the
accuracy;
however,
EPA
allows
facilities
to
report
releases
in
the
following
ranges:
1
to
10
pounds,
11
to
499
pounds,
and
500
to
999
pounds.
For
this
analysis,
EPA
used
the
mid­
point
of
each
reported
range
to
represent
a
facility's
releases.

EPA
weighted
the
direct
and
indirect
pollutant
releases
to
surface
waters
using
toxic
weighting
factors
(
TWFs)
developed
by
Office
of
Water/
Engineering
and
Analysis
Division
(
EAD),
to
calculate
toxic
weighted
pound
equivalents
(
TWPE)
for
each
reported
release.
See
4.2.3
and
4.2.4
for
more
discussion
of
TWFs
and
calculation
of
TWPE.
EPA
compiled
data
taken
from
TRI,
the
adjusted
releases
from
POTWs
to
surface
waters,
the
calculated
TWPE,
and
the
relationship
between
SIC
codes
and
point
source
category
into
a
Microsoft
Access
 
database
named
TRIReleases2000.
Some
corrections
were
made
to
this
database
as
further
study
was
conducted
on
the
TRI
data.
Limitations
of
TRI
are
discussed
in
Section
IV
of
the
Technical
Support
Document
for
this
planning
process.

PCSLoads2000
The
Permit

(
PCS)
is
the
major
source
of
data
for
the
PCSLoads2000
database.
PCS

facilities
and
water
treatment
plants
have
obtained
permits
for
water
discharges
of
regulated
pollutants.
To
provide
an
initial
framework
for
setting
permit
issuance
priorities,
EPA
developed
a
major/
minor
classification
system
for
industrial
and
municipal
wastewater
discharges.
Major
discharges
almost
always
have
the
capability
to
impact
receiving
waters
if
not
controlled
and,
therefore,
have
been
accorded
more
regulatory
attention
than
minor
discharges.
There
are
approximately
6,400
facilities
(
including
sewerage
systems)
with
major
FINAL

Fruits
&
Vegetables
August

2004
Page
22
of
33
discharges
for
which
PCS
has
extensive
records.
Permitting
authorities
classify
discharges
as
major
based
on
an
assessment
of
six
characteristics:

(
1)
toxic
pollutant
potential;
(
2)
ratio
of
discharge
flow
to
stream
flow;
(
3)
conventional
pollutant
loading;
(
4)
public
health
impact;
(
5)
water
quality
factors;
and
(
6)
proximity
to
coastal
waters.

Facilities
with
major
discharges
must
report
compliance
with
NPDES
permit
limits
via
monthly
Discharge
Monitoring
Reports
(
DMRs)
submitted
to
the
permitting
authority.
The
permitting
authority
enters
the
reported
DMR
data
into
PCS,
including
the
type
of
violation
(
if
any),
concentration
and
quantity
values,
and
the
Quarterly
Non­
Compliance
Report
(
QNCR)
indicators.
Minor
discharges
may,
or
may
not,
adversely
impact
receiving
water
if
not
controlled.
Therefore,
EPA
does
not
require
DMRs
for
facilities
with
minor
discharges.
For
this
reason,
the
PCS
database
includes
data
only
for
a
limited
set
of
minor
dischargers
when
the
states
choose
to
include
these
data.
As
a
consequence,
extensive
data
are
not
available
for
minor
discharges
in
PCS.

Parameters
in
PCS
include
water
quality
parameters
(
such
as
pH
and
temperature),
specific
chemicals,
bulk
parameters
(
such
as
BOD
5
and
TSS),
and
flow
rates.
Although
other
pollutants
may
be
discharged,
PCS
only
contains
data
for
the
parameters
identified
in
the
facility's
NPDES
permit.
Facilities
typically
report
monthly
average
pounds
per
day
discharged,
but
also
report
daily
maxima,
and
pollutant
concentrations.

For
this
review,
EPA
used
data
for
reporting
year
2000,
to
correspond
to
the
data
obtained
from
TRI.
EPA
used
its
Effluent
Data
Statistics
(
EDS)
system
program
to
calculate
annual
pollutant
discharges
using
the
monthly
reports
in
PCS.
Because
units
of
measure
vary
widely
in
PCS,
EPA
developed
the
EDS
system
to
estimate
mass
loadings
based
on
data
stored
in
PCS.
The
EDS
system
uses
existing
PCS
reported
mass
loading
values
or
multiplies
reported
discharge
flows
and
effluent
concentrations
to
estimate
loadings
for
each
outfall
(
discharge
pipe),
taking
into
account
the
various
units
of
concentration
and
flow
rates.

Where
concentrations
were
reported
as
below
detection
limit
(
BDL)
EPA
assumed
the
parameter
concentration
was
equal
to
zero
for
parameters
never
detected
by
the
facility
in
2000.
For
parameters
sometimes
detected
and
sometimes
not,
the
"
BDL"
concentration
was
set
equal
to
half
of
the
detection
limit.
.
The
EDS
system
program
sums
the
monthly
loads
to
calculate
annual
discharges,
interpolating
(
using
average
reported
loads)
for
months
with
missing
reports.

EPA
weighted
the
calculated
annual
pollutant
discharges
using
EAD's
TWFs
to
calculate
TWPE
for
each
reported
discharge,
as
it
did
for
the
reported
TRI
releases.
See
sections
4.2.3
and
4.2.4
for
more
discussion
of
TWFs
and
calculation
of
TWPE.

data,
some
corrections
were
made.
