Pretreatment Compliance Monitoring Activities. a. The TNRCC will establish procedures and time frames for: (1) reviewing monitoring reports, including annual reports submitted by POTWs and semi-annual reports submitted by categorical users in areas without local programs; (2) establishing and maintaining a complete inventory of POTWs with pretreatment programs; (3) conducting pretreatment audits for approved pretreatment programs. TNRCC will perform audits for approximately 20% of approved pretreatment programs each year to attain the goal of auditing each approved pretreatment program at least once in the five year cycle of the permit. Audit coverage may be less, as described in the CWA Section 106 program grant (PPG); (4) conducting pretreatment compliance inspections (PCIs) for a selected number of POTWs with approved pretreatment programs using the risk-based inspection targeting strategy outlined in Chapter 6 of the Program Description. The number of PCIs to be conducted will be negotiated annually as described in Section V.C. of this MOA. (5) conducting inspections of industrial users (IUs) of POTWs with approved pretreatment programs; these inspections will be conducted routinely as part of a pretreatment audit and on an as-needed basis as part of a PCI if the PCI findings indicate a problem or concern which would warrant IU inspection(s); (6) monitoring significant categorical and non-categorical industrial users of POTWs without approved pretreatment programs; (7) conducting compliance inspections as necessary for categorical industrial users of POTWs without approved pretreatment programs; (8) entering data from audits or PCIs into the Pretreatment Permits and Enforcement Tracking System (PPETS) data system within thirty (30) days of completion of these reports. b. Pretreatment audits shall be reported pursuant to the schedule of reporting identified in the CWA §106 program grant (PPG) provided by the TNRCC to EPA. c. The TNRCC will have oversight as Control Authority of categorical and significant non-categorical IUs in areas without local pretreatment programs (until a local program is required by the TNRCC), modeled after current EPA practices, which will include: (1) review and evaluate semi-annual monitoring reports and any other applicable reports required under 40 CFR §403.12 submitted by categorical users to ensure compliance with the National categorical pretreatment standards; (2) review various sources of information, which may include the Directory of Texas Manufacturers and the TNRCC enforcement case list, to identify categorical and significant non-categorical IUs in areas outside the jurisdiction of approved pretreatment programs; (3) determine whether any Existing Source or New Source categorical IU (as defined in 40 CFR §403.3 (k)), identified outside the jurisdiction of approved pretreatment programs, is in violation of the reporting requirements established under 40 CFR §403.12.
