(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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BCT Effluent limitations for ballast water --------------------------- Average of Pollutant or pollutant property daily values Maximum for for 30 any 1 day consecutive days shall not exceed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Metric units (kilograms per m\3\ of flow) --------------------------- BOD5........................................ 0.048 0.026 TSS......................................... 0.033 0.021 Oil and grease.............................. 0.015 0.008 pH..........................................

(\1\) (\1\) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ \1\ Within the range of 6.0 to 9.0. (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. (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: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BCT effluent limitations for contaminated runoff --------------------------- Average of Pollutant or pollutant property daily values Maximum for for 30 any 1 day consecutive days shall not exceed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Metric units (kilograms per 1,000 (m\3\ of flow) --------------------------- BOD5........................................ 48. 26.
