(3) See the comprehensive example in subpart D, Sec.
419.43(b)(3).
(c) The following allocations constitute the quantity and quality of
pollutants or pollutant properties controlled by this paragraph and
attributable to ballast, which may be discharged after the application
of best conventional pollutant control technology by a point source
subject to this subpart, in addition to the discharge allowed by
paragraph (b) of this section. The allocation allowed for ballast water
flow, as kg/cu m (lb/1000 gal), shall be based on those ballast waters
treated at the refinery.

(d) The quantity and quality of pollutants or pollutant properties
controlled by this paragraph attributable to once-through cooling water,
are excluded from the discharge allowed by paragraph (b) of this
section.
(e) Effluent limitations for contaminated runoff. The following
effluent limitations constitute the quantity and quality of pollutants
or pollutant properties controlled by this paragraph and attributable to
contaminated runoff which may be discharged after the application of the
best conventional pollutant control technology by a point source subject
to this subpart.
(1) If wastewater consists solely of contaminated runoff and is not
commingled or treated with process wastewater, it may be discharged if
it does not exceed 15 mg/l oil and grease based upon an analysis of any
single grab or composite sample.
[[Page 360]]
(2) If contaminated runoff is commingled or treated with process
wastewater, or if wastewater consisting solely of contaminated runoff
which exceeds 15 mg/l oil and grease is not commingled or treated with
any other type of wastewater, the quantity of pollutants discharged
shall not exceed the quantity determined by multiplying the flow of
contaminated runoff as determined by the permit writer times the
concentrations listed in the following table:
