Current through Register Vol. 48, 12, December 27, 2024

Section 61-9.125.B.10 - Purpose and scope

(a) These regulations establish guidelines under sections318 and 402 of the CWA for approval of any discharge of pollutants associated with an aquaculture project.

(b) The regulations authorize, on a selective basis, controlled discharges which would otherwise be unlawful under the PCA, section 48-1-90, and the CWA in order to determine the feasibility of using pollutants to grow aquatic organisms which can be harvested and used beneficially.

(c) Permits issued for discharges into aquaculture projects under this part are NPDES permits and are subject to the applicable requirements of R.61-9.122 and 124 and 40 CFR Part 123. Any permit shall include such conditions (including monitoring and reporting requirements) as are necessary to comply with those regulations. Technology-based effluent limitations need not be applied to discharges into the approved project except with respect to toxic pollutants.
