Effluent Limitations (Outfall 016) <br /> Any discharge or increase in volume of a discharge caused by <br /> precipitation within any 24-hour period greater than the 10-year, <br /> 24-hour event (or series of storms or snowmelt of equivalent volume) <br /> may comply with the following limitations subject to burden of proof <br /> requirements described in Part I.A. 2. <br /> Flow-(MGD) - monitoring only per Part I.B.1. <br /> Total Dissolved Solids - monitoring only per Part I.B.1. <br /> pH - (Standard Units) shall remain between 6.5 and 9 .0 c/. <br /> Oil and grease shall not exceed 10 mg/l c/ in any grab sample nor <br /> shall there be a visible sheen. <br /> 12. Additional Conditions-effective at all times for all outfalls <br /> There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in <br /> other than trace amounts. The discharge shall not contain any <br /> sanitary wastewaters from toilets or related facilities, or other <br /> pollutants not associated with active mining operations.

In addition, to waive settleabl# solids <br /> limitations, it is necessary to prove that discharge occurred within <br /> 48 hours after precipitation greater than the 10-year, 24-hour event <br /> has stopped. <br /> For snowmelt, to waive TSS and total iron limitations, it. is necessary <br /> to prove that discharge occurred within 48 hours after 'pond inflow has <br /> stopped. In addition, to waive settleable solids limitations, it is <br /> necessary to prove that discharge occurred within 48 hours after pond <br /> inflow volume greater than the 10-year, 24-hour event has stopped. <br /> The Division shall determine the adequacy of proof. <br />
