This modification is in response to a request from Corinne City Corporation (Corinne), received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on January 8, 2025, requesting a Compliance Schedule
for biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total suspended solids (TSS), and pH effluent limitations. Corinne is requesting a Compliance Schedule while upgrades are made to the collection
system, which will reduce inflow and infiltration (I&I) to the lagoons. Increased I&I has resulted in numerous effluent violations from Outfall 001 and 001D. DWQ grants this request
based on these improvement efforts. The Compliance Schedule will be effective from the permit modification issuance date until January 1, 2028. The Compliance Schedule will last for
the duration of this UPDES Permit. For the duration of the Compliance Schedule, DWQ will implement interim limitations for the above parameters. The limitations are lower than requested
by Corinne and are based on a review of Corinne’s effluent data for the last five years. The below interim permit limitations and Compliance Schedule are also reflected in Part 1.C.2.a.,
Part 1.C.2.b., and Part 1.C.3. of the Utah Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (UPDES) Permit No. UT0020931. These effluent limitations shall be applied to Outfall 001 and Outfall
001D. Any violation of the Compliance Schedule is a violation of the UPDES Permit.PUBLIC COMMENTSDuring the public comment period provided under Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R317-8-6.5,
