19、iSr practical and environmentally sound technologies for petroleum facility wastewater treatment. The Task Force has also been sponsoring research to help petroleum facilities and government agencies to improve efficiencies and to change and comply with regulations. The results of this program are i

20、ntended to provide industry and regulatory agencies with technical information to make informed decisions on appropriate alternatives for individual petroleum manufacturing and distribution facilities. The Task Force has sponsored and published a significant amount of work in prior years on handling

21、 and treating petroleum waters. A listing of some key published reports is summarized below. This report is aimed at helping individual petroleum facilities understand the NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) permitting process, and how to cost- effectively prepare permit applicat

22、ions under this system, whether done by in- house staff or through a consulting firm or other resource. This comprehensive report goes beyond explaining how to prepare the NPDES permit application. It provides strategies for improving facility operation as personnel go through the permit application

23、; raises possible issues and resolutions for negotiation and appeals with government regulators; provides example case histories; discusses stormwater permits; and provides a “tool box to help work through areas such as effluent limit calculations, mixing zones, waste load allocations, sampling/anal

24、ytical data, and biomonitoring. The Task Force greatly acknowledges and appreciates the fine work performed by Tischler/Kocurek, Round Rock, Texas in preparing this comprehensive study and for the expert guidance of Mr. David Pierce, Chevron, in overseeing the development of this report.

STDmAPI/PETRO PUBL 4b75-ENGL 1777 0732270 ObLB71b 382 Abstract A manual is presented by the American Petroleum Institute (API) to assist member companies and others in

29、 preparing applications and negotiating with permit authorities for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits for wastewater discharges. The manual is intended to help permittees and permit applicants to understand the permit process from application to final permit, and to pro

30、vide tools and strategies for assuring that the permit is fair and properly implements the applicable regulations. The manual documents issues that may arise during the preparation of permit applications and the negotiation of permit conditions with permit writers. It also describes administrative a

31、nd judicial mechanisms that are available to permittees to challenge permit conditions and limits that are technically unsound or do not comport with the applicable regulations. Much of the information in this manual is based on practical experience with many NPDES permits and applications. Examples

32、 and case histories are provided to help the user understand the permit application process.
