The provisions of this subpart are applicable to discharges resulting from the process by which raw materials are melted in a furnace and processed by hand into pressed or blown glassware. This includes those plants which:
(a) Produce leaded glass and employ hydrofluoric acid finishing techniques,
(b) Produce non-leaded glass and employ hydrofluoric acid finishing techniques, or
(c) Produce leaded or non-leaded glass and do not employ hydrofluoric acid finishing techniques.
§ 426.131 Specialized definitions.
top For the purpose of this subpart:
(a) Except as provided below, the general definitions, abbreviations and methods of analysis set forth in part 401 of this chapter shall apply to this subpart.
§ 426.132 Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available.
top Except as provided in §§125.30 through 125.32, any existing point source subject to this subpart shall achieve the following effluent limitations representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available (BPT):
(a) Any plant which melts raw materials, produces hand pressed or blown leaded glassware, employs hydrofluoric acid finishing techniques, and discharges greater than 50 gallons per day of process waste water, shall meet the following limitations.
| Effluent characteristic | Effluent limitations |
|---|
| Lead | No limitation. |
