PARTI <br />Page No. 19 <br />Permit No.: CO-0000132 <br />If the pemrittee monitors at the point of dischazge any pollutant limited by the pert more frequently than required by the <br />pemrit, using approved test procedures or as specified in the permit, the result of this monitoring shall be included in the <br />calculation and reporting of data to the Division. <br />3. Analvtical and Sampline Methods for Monitorine <br />The perilttee shall install, calibrate, use and maintain monitoring methods and equipment, including biological and indicated <br />pollutant monitoring methods. All sampling shalt be performed by the pemrittee according to specified methods in 40 CFR <br />Part 136; methods approved by EPA pursuant to 40 CFR Part 136; or methods approved by the Division, in the absence of a <br />method specified in or approved pursuant to 40 CFR Part 136. The analytical method selected For a parameter shall be <br />the one that can measure the lowest detected limit for that parameter unless the permit limitation or stream standard <br />for those parameters not limited, is within the testing range of another approved method. When requested in writing, <br />the Division may approve an alternative analytica] procedure or any significant modification to an approved procedure. <br />When the most sensitive analytical method which complies with this part, has a detection limit Beater than or equal to the <br />pemmit limit, the permittee shall report "less than (the detectable limit)," as appropriate. Such reports shall not be considered <br />as violations of the permit limit. The present lowest method detection limits for specific parameters (which have limitations <br />that aze, in some cases, less than or equal to the detection limit) aze as follows: <br />Edluent Characteristic <br />Arsenic <br />Cadmium <br />Chromium <br />Copper <br />Lead <br />Total Mercury <br />Nickel <br />Selenium <br />Silver <br />Zinc <br />Method Detection Limits, mp/I <br />0.01 <br />0.0003 <br />.0.01 <br />~ 0.005 <br />0.005 <br />0.00025 <br />0.05 <br />0.01 <br />0.0002 <br />0.05 <br />These limits apply to the total recoverable or the potentially dissolved fraction of metals. <br />The procedure for determining settleable solids is contained in 40 CFR 434.64. The method detection limit for measuring <br />settleable solids under this part shall be 0.4 ml/l, <br />4. Records <br />The pemuttee shall establish and maintain records. Those records shall include the following: <br />a. The date, type, exact location, and time of sampling or measurements; <br />b. The individual(s) who performed the sampling or measurements; <br />c. The date(s) the analyses were performed; <br />d. The individual(s) who performed the analyses; <br />e. The analytical techniques or methods used; <br />f. The results of such analyses; and <br />g. Any other observations which may result in an impact on the quality or quantity of the dischazge as indicated in 40 CFR <br />122.44 (i)(1)(iii). <br />The pemuttee shall retain for a minimum of three (3) yeazs records of all monitoring information, including all original strip <br />chart recordings for continuous monitoring instrumentation, all calibration and maintenance records, copies of all reports <br />required by this pemut and records of all data used to complete the application for this permit. This period of retention shall <br />be extended during the course of any unresolved litigation regarding the discharge of pollutants by the permittee or when <br />requested by the Division or EPA. <br />Revised 03/22/04 <br />
