Local Limits
The City of Albany is required to establish discharge limitations for various pollutants of concern to the Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW). The regulatory basis for establishing these limits lies in 40 CFR Part 403.5(c), requiring the development of specific limits to implement prohibition of discharges harmful to the POTW, including sludges. The Oregon DEQ has required the submission of technically based local limits for approval, and DEQ has approved Albany's local limits. These limits apply only to Albany's permitted industrial users, but they may be applied to other pollutant sources through a permit in response to problem discharges.
