Part I. General Information
History of Facility
Describe the history of the facility including the year the facility went into service and treatment processes.
History of Reuse at the Facility
Describe how long reuse has been performed at the facility.
Part II. Location
Type I Allowable Uses
The discharge will have the following use
Check all that apply
Residential irrigation
Urban uses
Non-residential landscape irrigation
Golf course irrigation
Toilet flushing
Fire protection
Irrigation of food crops (direct contact with edible part) – spray irrigation
Type II Allowable Uses
The discharge will have the following use
Check all that apply
Irrigate sod farm.
Irrigate silviculture.
Irrigate limited access highway right of ways.
Irrigate other areas where human access is restricted or unlikely to occur.
Irrigate food crops where the applied treated effluent is not likely to have direct contact with the edible part, spray irrigation not allowed.
Irrigation of animal feed crops other than pasture used for milked animals.
Impoundments of wastewater where direct human contact is not allowed or is unlikely to occur.
Cooling water.
Soil compaction in construction areas.
Dust control in construction areas.
Treatment of Effluent
Type I Required Treatment
Treatment processes that are expected to produce effluent in which both the BOD and total suspended solids concentrations do not exceed secondary quality effluent limits as defined in
R317-1-3.2.
Filtration, which includes passing the wastewater through filter media such as sand and/or anthracite, approved membrane processes or other approved filtration processes.
Disinfection to destroy, inactivate, or remove pathogenic microorganisms by chemical, physical, or biological means. Disinfection may be accomplished by chlorination, ozonation, or other
chemical disinfectants, UV radiation, or other approved processes.
Other approved treatment processes in which any of the unit process functions of secondary treatment, filtration and disinfection may be combined, but still achieve the same secondary
quality effluent limits as required above.
Type II Required Treatment Treatment processes that are expected to produce effluent in which both the BOD and total suspended solids concentrations do not exceed secondary quality effluent
limits as defined in R317-1-3.2.Disinfection to destroy, inactivate, or remove pathogenic microorganisms by chemical, physical, or biological means. Disinfection may be accomplished
by chlorination, ozonation, or other chemical disinfectants, UV radiation, or other approved processes.Water Quality Limits. The quality of effluent before use must meet the following
standards. Testing methods and procedures shall be performed according to test procedures approved under R317-2-10, or as otherwise approved by the Director. Water quality sampling requirements
specified in this section shall apply to the point of compliance at all times during use of treated effluent.Describe the treatment of the effluent.
Quantity of Treated Effluent
Average daily volume applied in gallons per day
How often is the flow applied (seasonal, continuous or intermittent)
Storage
Type I Requirements
An alternative disposal option or diversion to storage must be automatically activated if turbidity exceeds the maximum instantaneous limit for more than 5 minutes, or chlorine residual
drops below the instantaneous required value for more than 5 minutes, where chlorine disinfection is used.
Any irrigation must be at least 50 feet from any potable water well. Impoundments of treated effluent, if not sealed, must be at least 500 feet from any potable water well. The use should
not result in a surface runoff and must not result in the creation of an unhealthy or nuisance condition, as determined by the local health department.
For residential landscape irrigation at individual homes, additional quality control restrictions may be required by the Director. Proposals for such uses should also be submitted to
the local health authority to determine any conditions they may require. When secondary residential irrigation systems are planned utilizing treated effluent in new subdivisions, it
is recommended that a notification of the type of irrigation system and possible sources of irrigation waters be made on the deed for the property. Such notification could be made during
the plat approval process.
Type II Requirements
An alternative disposal option or diversion to storage must be available in case quality requirements are not met.
Any irrigation must be at least 300 feet from any potable water well. Spray irrigation must be at least 100 feet from areas intended for public access. This distance may be reduced or
increased by the Director, based on the type of spray irrigation equipment used and other factors.
Impoundments of treated effluent, if not sealed, must be at least 500 feet from any potable water well. The use should not result in a surface runoff and must not result in the creation
of an unhealthy or nuisance condition, as determined by the local health department.
Public access to effluent storage and irrigation or disposal sites shall be restricted by a stock- tight fence or other comparable means which shall be posted and controlled to exclude
the public.
Have the above requirements been met? If so, please describe below.
