Sec. 430.27 Pretreatment standards for new sources (PSNS).
Except as provided in 40 CFR 403.7, any new source subject to this
subpart that introduces pollutants into a publicly owned treatment works
must comply with 40 CFR part 403 and must achieve the following
pretreatment standards for new sources (PSNS).
(a)(1) The following pretreatment standards apply with respect to
each fiber line that is a new source, unless the indirect discharger
discloses to the pretreatment control authority in a report submitted
under 40 CFR 403.12 that it uses exclusively TCF bleaching processes at
that fiber line:

\a\ ``b This regulation does not specify this type of limitation for this pollutant; however, pretreatment control
authorities may do so as appropriate.
c Picograms per liter.
d Grams per 1,000 kilograms (g/kkg).
e Kilograms per 1,000 kilograms (kg/kkg).
(2) The following pretreatment standards apply with respect to each
new source fiber line operated by an indirect discharger subject to this
section if the indirect discharger discloses to the pretreatment control
authority in a report submitted under 40 CFR 403.12(b), (d), or (e) that
it uses exclusively TCF bleaching processes at that fiber line:

\a\ ``b This regulation does not specify this type of limitation for this pollutant; however, pretreatment control
authorities may do so as appropriate.
(b) The following pretreatment standards apply to all new source
indirect dischargers, regardless of when they commenced discharge, in
accordance with the previous subcategorization scheme. An indirect
discharger is not required to meet these pretreatment standards if it
certifies to the pretreatment control authority that it is not using
these compounds as biocides. In cases when POTWs find it necessary to
impose mass-based effluent limitations, equivalent mass limitations are
provided as guidance:

Trichlorophenol.............. 0.014 (0.093)(36.6)/y

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(c) An indirect discharger must demonstrate compliance with the
pretreatment standards in paragraph (a)(1) of this section by monitoring
at the point where the wastewater containing those pollutants leaves the
bleach plant.
