PART 437--THE CENTRALIZED WASTE TREATMENT POINT SOURCE CATEGORY--Table of Contents
Subpart D--Multiple Wastestreams
Sec. 437.45 New source performance standards (NSPS).
(a) Except as provided in Sec. 437.40(b), any new source subject to
this subpart which combines treated or untreated wastes from subparts A,
B, or C of this part may be subject to Multiple
[[Page 378]]
Wastestream Subcategory effluent limitations representing the
application of NSPS set forth in paragraphs (b), (c), (d), or (e) of
this section if the discharger agrees to the following conditions in its
NPDES permit:
(1) The discharger will meet the applicable Multiple Wastestream
Subcategory limitations set forth in paragraphs (b), (c), (d) or (e) of
this section;
(2) The discharger will notify its NPDES permit writer at the time
of submitting its application for permit, of its desire to be subject to
the Multiple Waste Subcategory by submitting to the NPDES permit writer
an initial certification statement as described in Sec. 437.41(a);
(3) The discharger will submit to its NPDES permitting authority a
periodic certification statement as described in Sec. 437.41(b) once a
year; and
(4) The discharger will maintain at the office of the facility and
make available for inspection the on-site compliance paperwork as
described in Sec. 437.41(c).
(b) Combined waste receipts from subparts A, B and C of this part.
(1) As provided in Sec. 437.45(a), any new source subject to this
paragraph must achieve the following performance standards:
