Section 702.19 - Modifications of groundwater effluent limitations

(a)

(1) An applicant for a SPDES permit or a SPDES permittee may make written application for a modification of a groundwater effluent limitation listed in Table 3 of section 703.6(e) of this Title or established pursuant to section 702.16(c)(1) of this Part.

(2) Such applicant shall have the burden of establishing to the satisfaction of the commissioner, that one or more of the effluent limitations are unnecessarily restrictive as to a particular discharge in that such modification would, notwithstanding noncompliance with such limitations, prevent pollution and protect the groundwaters for their best usages.

(b) Where a request for a modification of a groundwater effluent limitation satisfies the requirements of this section, the department shall authorize the modification through the SPDES permit. The modification request shall be available to the public for review during the public notice period for the permit. The permit shall contain all conditions needed to implement the modification.
