Wis. Admin. Code Department of Natural Resources NR 106.37

Current through November 25, 2024
Section NR 106.37 - Schedules of compliance
(1)The department shall determine and specify a reasonable compliance schedule in the permit if the permittee is unable to meet the ammonia effluent limits determined according to this subchapter at the time of permit reissuance. The department shall establish the term of the compliance schedule on a case-by-case basis consistent with the requirements in s. NR 106.117. When establishing a compliance schedule, the department shall consider factors such as necessary planning, complexity of wastewater treatment issues, scope of construction, equipment delivery time, and construction seasons in establishing a schedule. In no circumstance may the date of compliance with the limits extend more than 5 years after the date of permit reissuance.
(2)If the department modifies or reissues the permit to adjust ammonia limitations based on an approval of demonstrations made under either s. NR 106.32(2) (b) 2. or (3) (a) 4. the department may adjust the compliance schedule if necessary and appropriate.
(4)Any point source discharge which was not authorized by a WPDES permit prior to March 1, 2004 may not be provided with a schedule of compliance for achieving ammonia limits, but rather shall meet the limits upon initiation of discharge. A point source discharge previously authorized by a WPDES permit but relocated in the same receiving water body may be allowed a schedule of compliance.
