The permittee is required to monitor for WET at these <br />outfalls prior to the effective date of the limitation. <br />3. Altentate Limitation Burden of Proof Requirements <br />The permittee has the burden of proof when see~zng relief from total suspended solids (TSS), total iron and/or settleable <br />solids (SS) limitations, as applicable. All outfals are eligible for relief from TSS, total iron and SS, as applicable; however, <br />the majority of the loading from any discharge has to consist of storm runoff for the relief to be available. The permittee will <br />need to show that exeeedance of the applicable limitations was caused by precipitation (surface nmoff water) and not mine <br />water or spoils spring water, through a comparison of the loading from each source. outfalls 009 and Oli are eligible for <br />relief from TSS, total iron and SS on the basis that only surface mnoff discharges are,authorized from these outfalls. <br />Relief Wray be granted for each discharge ocewYenee only when ueeessary and shall not be granted when the petmittee has <br />control over the discharge. ~1'he pemtittee should endeavor to meet the primary limitations whenever possibla. <br /> <br />a. For active outfalls: For rainfall, to waive TSS and total iron limitations, it is necessary to provo that discharge occurred <br />~t~thin 4S hours after measurable precipitazion has stopped. In addition, to waive settleable solids limitations, it is <br />necessary to prove that discharge occurred within a8 hours after precipitation g>jeater than the 10-year, 24-hour went has <br />stopped ; or snowntelt, to waive TSS and total iron limimtions, it is necessary to prove that discharge occurred within <br />
