Sec. 129.100  Aldrin/dieldrin.

    (a) Specialized definitions. (1) Aldrin/Dieldrin manufacturer means 
a manufacturer, excluding any source which is exclusively an aldrin/
dieldrin formulator, who produces, prepares or processes technical 
aldrin or dieldrin or who uses aldrin or dieldrin as a material in the 
production, preparation or processing of another synthetic organic 
substance.
    (2) Aldrin/Dieldrin formulator means a person who produces, prepares 
or processes a formulated product comprising a mixture of either aldrin 
or dieldrin and inert materials or other diluents, into a product 
intended for application in any use registered under the Federal 
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, as amended (7 U.S.C. 135, et 
seq.).
    (3) The ambient water criterion for aldrin/dieldrin in navigable 
waters is 0.003 [mu] g/l.
    (b) Aldrin/dieldrin manufacturer--(1) Applicability. (i) These 
standards or prohibitions apply to:
    (A) All discharges of process wastes; and
    (B) All discharges from the manufacturing areas, loading and 
unloading areas, storage areas and other areas which are subject to 
direct contamination by aldrin/dieldrin as a result of the manufacturing 
process, including but not limited to:
    (1) Stormwater and other runoff except as hereinafter provided in 
paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section; and
    (2) Water used for routine cleanup or cleanup of spills.
    (ii) These standards do not apply to stormwater runoff or other 
discharges from areas subject to contamination solely by fallout from 
air emissions of aldrin/dieldrin; or to stormwater runoff that exceeds 
that from the ten year 24-hour rainfall event.
    (2) Analytical method acceptable. Environmental Protection Agency 
method specified in 40 CFR part 136, except that a 1-liter sample size 
is required to increase the analytical sensitivity.
    (3) Effluent standard--(i) Existing sources. Aldrin or dieldrin is 
prohibited in any discharge from any aldrin/dieldrin manufacturer.
    (ii) New Sources. Aldrin or dieldrin is prohibited in any discharge 
from any aldrin/dieldrin manufacturer.
    (c) Aldrin/dieldrin formulator--(1) Applicability. (i) These 
standards or prohibitions apply to:
    (A) All discharges of process wastes; and
    (B) All discharges from the formulating areas, loading and unloading 
areas, storage areas and other areas which are subject to direct 
contamination by aldrin/dieldrin as a result of the formulating process, 
including but not limited to:
    (1) Stormwater and other runoff except as hereinafter provided in 
paragraph (c)(1)(ii) of this section; and
    (2) Water used for routine cleanup or cleanup of spills.
    (ii) These standards do not apply to stormwater runoff or other 
discharges from areas subject to contamination solely by fallout from 
air emissions of aldrin/dieldrin; or to stormwater runoff that exceeds 
that from the ten year 24-hour rainfall event.
    (2) Analytical method acceptable. Environmental Protection Agency 
method specified in 40 CFR part 136, except that a 1-liter sample size 
is required to increase the analytical sensitivity.
    (3) Effluent standard--(i) Existing sources. Aldrin or dieldrin is 
prohibited in any discharge from any aldrin/dieldrin formulator.

    (ii) New sources. Aldrin or dieldrin is prohibited in any discharge 
from any aldrin/dieldrin formulator.
