The gist of this rule and the underlying reason for the rulemaking is to allow electronic submittal of plans and specifications and engineering reports; update references to Metcalf & Eddy; update Vortex-type grit chamber detention times language to allow other designs that may be authorized with engineering justification; update wet weather flow equalization basin construction to require wet weather Flow Equalization Basins (FEBs) be located with the same requirements as lagoons to provide for groundwater protection; update return sludge piping language to specify that 4-inch piping is a minimum requirement; and, specify that Category 6 reclaimed water must be drawn from the effluent of the final treatment process unit, with the intake located within or immediately downstream of the disinfection unit where disinfection is provided.
The agency’s own summary, as published.
