Section NR 106.54 - Representative effluent temperature data(1) The representative daily maximum effluent temperature is the highest effluent temperature known or expected to occur on any day under normal operating conditions at the time of permit issuance. Representative daily maximum effluent temperature shall be measured at a frequency of not less than once per week whenever a discharge occurs.(2) The representative weekly average effluent temperature is the highest weekly average effluent temperature known or expected to occur under normal operating conditions at the time of permit issuance.(3) The department may require a permittee to collect additional data if the department determines that the requirements of subs. (1) and (2) do not provide adequate data to document the operational variability of a discharge.(4) A permittee may request, at the time of application for a WPDES permit, calculation of effluent temperature limitations to be included in a permit based on real-time data. Any permittee that makes such a request shall provide effluent flow, effluent temperature, receiving water flow, and receiving water temperature at a frequency no less than one result per hour that is representative of normal operating conditions, including variability.Wis.
