DESCRIPTION OF FACILITY
The Garland City Wastewater Treatment Plant (Garland WWTP) is a new activated sludge facility located at 1206 South 1050 East in Garland, Utah.
The treatment process is designed for an average flow of 0.45 MGD and a peak flow of 0.90 MGD. The facility has a preliminary treatment process consisting of an in-channel automated
screen with bagging mechanism, a manual bypass bar rack and a vortex grit chamber, classifier and screw conveyor. The secondary treatment process consists of biological assimilation
of organics through aerobic cellular metabolism. Phosphorous is removed from the wastewater during secondary clarification. Onsite waste activated sludge is stabilized, thickened, and
reduced through endogenous respiration. The facility uses ultra-violet light (UV) disinfection. Waste by-products, including screenings and dewatered biosolids, are hauled to the Box
Elder County Landfill.
DISCHARGE
DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGE
Garland WWTPhas been reporting self-monitoring results on Discharge Monitoring Reports on a monthly basis. Garland WWTP began to discharge in April 2022. During the first 18 months
of operations, the Garland WWTP transitioned multiple different operatorsthrough as the Direct Responsible Charge (DRC). During some periods of time DMRs were not submitted, and some
of the monitoring results were lost. This was noted, and a Warning Letter was sent to Garland City regardingthese deficiencies in December 2023, and the DMR have been submitted regularly
since then. Summary of three years of data is included in Attachment 2 of this FSSOB.OutfallDescription of Discharge Point
001 Located at latitude 4143'42" and longitude -11209'00". The discharge will be through a steel encased pipe to the Malad River.
RECEIVING WATERS AND STREAM CLASSIFICATION
The final discharge flows into the Malad River, in the Bear River watershed. The Malad River is classified as 2B and 3C according to Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R317-2-13:
Class 2B -- Protected for infrequent primary contact recreation. Also protected for secondary contact recreation where there is a low likelihood of ingestion of water or a low degree
of bodily contact with the water. Examples include, but are not limited to, wading, hunting, and fishing.
Class 3C -- Protected for nongame fish and other aquatic life, including the necessary aquatic organisms in their food chain.
TOTAL MAXIMUM DAILY LOAD (TMDL) REQUIREMENTS According to the Utah’s Final 2024 Integrated Report on Water Quality dated April 30, 2024, the receiving water for the discharge, “Malad
River and tributaries, from confluence with Bear River to state line (Assessment Unit Malad River-1, AU ID: UT16010204-006_00)” was listed as “Not Supporting” for Benthic Macroinvertebrates
Bioassessments, E. coli, Thalium, and pH. A TMDL is needed, however, the priority is set to “Low”. There was an approved TMDL completed in 2002 for Total Phosphorous.The downstream reach
“Bear River and tributaries, from Great Salt Lake to Utah-Idaho border, except as listed below (Assessment Unit Bear River-2-2, AU ID: UT16010204-008_02)” was listed as “Not Supporting”
for Benthic Macroinvertebrates Bioassessments and Total Dissolved Solids. A TMDL is needed, however, the priority is set to “Low”.
BASIS FOR EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS
Limitations on total suspended solids (TSS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), E. coli, pH and percent removal for BOD5 and TSS are based on current Utah Secondary Treatment Standards,
UAC R317-1-3.2. The oil and grease is based on best professional judgment (BPJ). Attached is a Wasteload Analysis for this discharge into the Malad River. It has been determined that
this discharge will not cause a violation of water quality standards. An Antidegradation Level II review is not required since the Level I review shows that water quality impacts are
minimal. The permittee is expected to be able to comply with these limitations.
Reasonable Potential Analysis
Since January 1, 2016, DWQ has conducted reasonable potential analysis (RP) on all new and renewal applications received after that date. RP for this permit renewal was conducted following
DWQ’s September 10, 2015 Reasonable Potential Analysis Guidance (RP Guidance).There are four outcomes defined in the RP Guidance: Outcome A, B, C, or D. These Outcomes provide a frame
work for what routine monitoring or effluent limitations are required
A review of the metals results shows they were only required to sample twice for metals. This is due to the newness of the facility, lack of any significant industrial sources, and the
relatively small volume the discharge will contribute to the Malad River. This is not a large enough sample size to evaluate the RP for a parameter. As a result, no quantitative RP analysis
was performed.

BIOSOLIDS
For clarification purposes, sewage sludge is considered solids, until treatment or testing shows that the solids are safe, and meet beneficial use standards. After the solids are tested
or treated, the solids are then known as biosolids. Class A biosolids, may be used for high public contact sites, such as home lawns and gardens, parks, or playing fields, etc. Class
B biosolids may be used for low public contact sites, such as farms, rangeland, or reclamation sites, etc.
DESCRIPTION OF TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL
Garland WWTP dewaters the biosolids and transports them to the Box Elder County Landfill along with other materials removed during the treatment process.
SELF-MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Under 40 CFR 503.16(a)(1), the self-monitoring requirements are based upon the amount of biosolids disposed per year and shall be monitored according to the chart below.

Garland WWTPgenerates and disposes of less than 100 DMT of biosolids a year, therefore they could be required to sample once a year.
Landfill MonitoringUnder 40 CFR 258, the landfill monitoring requirements include a paint filter test. If the biosolids do not pass a paint filter test, the biosolids cannot be disposed
in the sanitary landfill (40 CFR 258.28(c)(1).
BIOSOLIDS LIMITATIONS
Heavy MetalsClass A Biosolids for Home Lawn and Garden UseThe intent of the heavy metals regulations of Table 3,40 CFR 503.13 is to ensure the heavy metals do not build up in the soil
in home lawn and gardens to the point where the heavy metals become phytotoxic to plants. The permittee will be required to produce an information sheet (see Part III. C. of the permit)
to made available to all people who are receiving and land applying Class A biosolids to their lawns and gardens. If the instructions of the information sheet are followed to any reasonable
degree, the Class A biosolids will be able to be land applied year after year, to the same lawns and garden plots without any deleterious effects to the environment. The information
sheet must be provided to the public, because the permittee is not required, nor able to track the quantity of Class A biosolids that are land applied to home lawns and gardens.Class
A Requirements With Regards to Heavy Metals If the biosolids are to be applied to a lawn or home garden, the biosolids shall not exceed the maximum heavy metals in Table 3 below. If
the biosolids do not meet these requirements, the biosolids cannot be sold or given away for applications to home lawns and gardens.Class B Requirements for Agriculture and Reclamation
Sites The intent of the heavy metals regulations of Tables 1, 2 and 3, of 40 CFR 503.13 is to ensure that heavy metals do not build up in the soil at farms, forest land, and land reclamation
sites to the point where the heavy metals become phytotoxic to plants. The permittee will be required to produce an information sheet (see Part III. C. of the permit) to be handed out
to all people who are receiving and land applying Class B biosolids to farms, ranches, and land reclamation sites (if biosolids are only applied to land owned by the permittee, the information
sheet requirements are waived). If the biosolids are land applied according to the regulations of 40 CFR 503.13, to any reasonable degree, the Class B biosolids will be able to be land
applied year after year, to the same farms, ranches, and land reclamation sites without any deleterious effects to the environment. Class B Requirements With Regards to Heavy Metals
If the biosolids are to be land applied to agricultural land, forest land, a public contact site or a reclamation site it must meet at all times:
The maximum heavy metals concentration limits listed in 40 CFR Part 503.13(b) Table 1 and the heavy metals loading rates in40 CFR Part 503.13(b) Table 2; or
The maximum heavy metals in 40 CFR Part 503.13(b) Table 1 and the monthly heavy metals concentration limits in 40 CFR Part 503.13(b) Table 3.

And - Viable helminth ova –less than one (1) per four (4) grams total solids (DWB)
1 - MPN – Most Probable Number
2 - DWB – Dry Weight Basis
3 - CFU – Colony Forming Units
Class A Requirements for Home Lawn and Garden Use
If biosolids are land applied to home lawns and gardens, the biosolids need to be treated by a specific process to further reduce pathogens (PFRP), and meet a microbiological limit of
less than less than 3 most probable number (MPN) of Salmonella per 4 grams of total solids (or less than 1,000 most probable number (MPN/g) of fecal coliform per gram of total solids)
to be considered Class A biosolids (40 CFR 503.32(a)(7)(i)). At this time Garland WWTPdoes not intend to distribute biosolids to the public for use on the lawn and garden and thus is
not required meet Class A Biosolids requirements currently.
The practice of sale or giveaway to the public is an acceptable use of biosolids of this quality as long as the biosolids continue to meet Class A standards with respect to pathogens.
If the biosolids do not meet Class A pathogen standards the biosolids cannot be sold or given away to the public, and the permittee will need find another method of beneficial use or
disposal.
Pathogens Class B
If biosolids are to be land applied for agriculture or land reclamation the solids need to be treated by a specific process to significantly reduce pathogens (PSRP). At this time Garland
WWTPdoes not intend to distribute bulk biosolids for land application and thus is not required meet Class B Biosolids requirements currently.
Vector Attraction Reduction (VAR)
If the biosolids are land applied Garland WWTP will be required to meet VAR through the use of a method of listed under 40 CFR 503.33. At this time Garland WWTPdoes not intend to distribute
biosolids to the public for beneficial use, and will be disposing of them in a landfill.Under 40 CFR 503.33(b)(11)
If the biosolids do not meet a method of VAR, the biosolids cannot be land applied.
If the permittee intends to use another one of the listed alternatives in 40 CFR 503.33, the Director and the EPA must be informed at least thirty (30) days prior to its use. This change
may be made without additional public notice
Landfill Monitoring Under 40 CFR 258, the landfill monitoring requirements include a paint filter test to determine if the biosolids exhibit free liquid. If the biosolids do not pass
a paint filter test, the biosolids cannot be disposed in the sanitary landfill (40 CFR 258.28(c)(1)).
Record Keeping
The record keeping requirements from 40 CFR 503.17 are included under Part III.G. of the permit. The amount of time the records must be maintained are dependent on the quality of the
biosolids in regards to the metals concentrations. If the biosolids continue to meet the metals limits of Table 3 of 40 CFR 503.13, and are sold or given away the records must be retained
for a minimum of five years. If the biosolids are disposed in a landfill the records must retained for a minimum of five years.
Reporting
For calendar years during which biosolids are produced and/or processed the Garland WWTPmust report annually as required in 40 CFR 503.18. This report is to include the results of all
monitoring performed in accordance with Part III.B of the permit, information on management practices, biosolids treatment, and certifications. This report is due no later than February
19 of each year. Each report is for the previous calendar year.
MONITORING DATA
The Garland WWTP dewaters and landfills all biosolids generated at the facility. As a result of this, they have not been required to monitor and report on any pollutants or pathogens
for the biosolids.
STORM WATER
MSGP coverage is required for Treatment Works treating domestic sewage or any other sewage sludge or wastewater treatment device or system, used in the storage, treatment, recycling,
and reclamation of municipal or domestic sewage, including lands dedicated to the disposal of sewage sludge that are located within the confines of the facility, with a design flow of
1.0 million gallons per day (MGD) or more, or required to have an approved pretreatment program under 40 CFR Part 403. If the facility is not already covered, it has 30 days from when
this permit is issued to submit the appropriate Notice of Intent (NOI) for the MSGP or exclusion documentation.
Permit coverage under the Construction General Storm Water Permit (CGP) is required for any construction at the facility which disturb an acre or more, or is part of a common plan of
development or sale that is an acre or greater. A Notice of Intent (NOI) is required to obtain a construction storm water permit prior to the period of construction.
Information onstorm water permit requirements can be found at http://stormwater.utah.gov
PRETREATMENT REQUIREMENTS
The permittee has not been designated for pretreatment program development because it does not meet conditions which necessitate a full program. The flow through the plant is less than
five (5) MGD, there are no categorical industries discharging to the treatment facility, industrial discharges comprise less than 1 percent of the flow through the treatment facility,
and there is no indication of pass through or interference with the operation of the treatment facility such as upsets or violations of the POTW's UPDES permit limits.
Although the permittee does not have to develop a State-approved pretreatment program, any wastewater discharges to the sanitary sewer are subject to Federal, State and local regulations.
Pursuant to Section 307 of the Clean Water Act, the permittee shall comply with all applicable Federal General Pretreatment Regulations promulgated, found in 40 CFR 403 and the State
Pretreatment Requirements found in UAC R317-8-8.
An industrial waste survey (IWS) is required of the permittee as stated in Part II of the permit. The IWS is to assess the needs of the permittee regarding pretreatment assistance.
The IWS is required to be submitted within sixty (60) days after the issuance of the permit. If an Industrial User begins to discharge or an existing Industrial User changes their
discharge the permittee must resubmit an IWS no later than sixty days following the introduction or change as stated in Part II of the permit.
It is required that the permittee submit for review any local limits that are developed to the Division of Water Quality for review. If local limits are developed it is required that
the permittee perform an annual evaluation of the need to revise or develop technically based local limits for pollutants of concern, to implement the general and specific prohibitions
40 CFR, Part 403.5(a) and Part 403.5(b). This evaluation may indicate that present local limits are sufficiently protective, need to be revised or should be developed.
BIOMONITORING REQUIREMENTS
A nationwide effort to control toxic discharges where effluent toxicity is an existing or potential concern is regulated in accordance with the Utah Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
Permit and Enforcement Guidance Document for Whole Effluent Toxicity Control (biomonitoring), dated February 2018. Authority to require effluent biomonitoring is provided in Permit
Conditions, UAC R317-8-4.2, Permit Provisions, UAC R317-8-5.3 and Water Quality Standards, UAC R317-2-5 and R317 -2-7.2.
Since the permittee is a new facility, the permit will require whole effluent toxicity (WET) testing. For this permit cycle Garland City WWTP will be required to conduct Acute Wet tests
quarterly alternating between Ceriodaphniadubia and Pimephalespromelas (fathead minnows) test species. If no toxicity is observed for 10 consecutive tests, testing frequency may be reduced
or removed if approved by the Director in accordance with administrative procedures for modifying the permit. Decisions on type of WET testing and species were based on the revised
UPDES Permitting and Enforcement Guidance Document for Whole Effluent Toxicity Control dated February 2018. The permit will also contain the standard requirements for accelerated testing
upon failure of a WET test and PTI (Preliminary Toxicity Investigation) and TRE (Toxicity Reduction Evaluation) as necessary.

Industrial Waste Survey
This Page Intentionally Left BlankIndustrial Pretreatment Wastewater SurveyDo you periodically experience any of the following treatment works problems:foam, floaties or unusual colorsplugged
collection lines caused by grease, sand, flour, etc.discharging excessive suspended solids, even in the wintersmells unusually badwaste treatment facility doesn’t seem to be treating
the waste rightPerhaps the solution to a problem like one of these may lie in investigating the types and amounts of wastewater entering the sewer system from industrial users.An industrial
user (IU) is defined as a non-domestic user discharging to the waste treatment facility which meets any of the following criteria: 1.has a lot of process wastewater (5% of the flow
at the waste treatment facility or more than 25,000 gallons per work day.)Examples:Food processor, dairy, slaughterhouse, industrial laundry.2.is subject to Federal Categorical Pretreatment
Standards;Examples:metal plating, cleaning or coating of metals, blueing of metals, aluminum extruding, circuit board manufacturing, tanning animal skins, pesticide formulating or packaging,
and pharmaceutical manufacturing or packaging,3.is a concern to the POTW.Examples:septage hauler, restaurant and food service, car wash, hospital, photo lab, carpet cleaner, commercial
laundry.All users of the water treatment facility are prohibited from making the following types of discharges:1.A discharge which creates a fire or explosion hazard in the collection
system.2.A discharge which creates toxic gases, vapor or fumes in the collection system.3.A discharge of solids or thick liquids which creates flow obstructions in the collection system.4.An
acidic discharge (low pH) which causes corrosive damage to the collection system.5.Petroleum oil, nonbiodegradable cutting oil, or products of mineral oil origin in amounts that will
cause problems in the collection system or at the waste treatment facility.6.Waste haulers are prohibited from discharging without permission. (No midnight dumping!)When the solution
to a sewer system problem may be found by investigating the types and amounts of wastewater entering the sewer system discharged from IUs, it’s appropriate to conduct an Industrial Waste
Survey.An Industrial Waste Survey consists of:Step 1: Identify Industrial UsersMake a list of all the commercial and industrial sewer connections.Sources for the list:business license,
building permits, water and wastewater billing, Chamber of Commerce, newspaper, telephone book, yellow pages.Split the list into two groups:domestic wastewater only--no further information

Reasonable Potential Analysis

REASONABLE POTENTIAL ANALYSIS
Water Quality has worked to improve our reasonable potential analysis (RP) for the inclusion of limits for parameters in the permit by using an EPA provided model. As a result of the
model, more parameters may be included in the renewal permit. A Copy of the Reasonable Potential Analysis Guidance (RP Guide) is available at water Quality. There are four outcomes
for the RP Analysis. They are;
Outcome A:A new effluent limitation will be placed in the permit.
Outcome B:No new effluent limitation. Routine monitoring requirements will be placed or increased from what they are in the permit,
Outcome C:No new effluent limitation. Routine monitoring requirements maintained as they are in the permit,
Outcome D:No limitation or routine monitoring requirements are in the permit.
A review of the metals results shows they were only required to sample twice for metals. This is due to the newness of the facility, lack of any significant industrial sources, and the
relatively small volume the discharge will contribute to the Malad River.
Initial screening for metals values that were submitted through the discharge monitoring reports showed that no closer look at some of the metals is needed. A copy of the initial screening
is included in the “Effluent Metals and RP Screening Results” table in this attachment
This is not a large enough sample size to evaluate the RP for a parameter. As a result, no quantitative RP analysis was performed.
