Total Suspended Solids Clause Samples
The 'Total Suspended Solids' clause defines the maximum allowable concentration of suspended solid particles in a liquid, typically in the context of wastewater or effluent discharge. This clause sets specific measurement thresholds for total suspended solids, often requiring regular testing and reporting to ensure compliance with environmental standards. By establishing clear limits, the clause helps prevent excessive pollution, protects water quality, and ensures that parties adhere to regulatory or contractual environmental obligations.

Total Suspended Solids. BMPs shall be designed, installed, and maintained to control total suspended solids carried in runoff from the post-construction site as follows:
a. For new development, by design, reduce to the maximum extent practicable, the total suspended solids load by eighty
Total Suspended Solids. (TSS). The total suspended matter that floats on the surface of, or is suspended in wastewater. The laboratory determination of TSS shall be made in accordance with procedures established by the EPA and specified in 40 CFR Part 136, as amended.
Total Suspended Solids. BMPs and other nutrient reduction efforts put in place to address P will also generally be effective in reducing TSS. Where necessary and when correlated within a watershed, P reductions will be used as a surrogate for TSS reductions. TSS reductions, in addition to N and P reductions, can be considered, if applicable and consistent with state and federal law.
Total Suspended Solids. BMPs shall be designed, installed and maintained to control total suspended solids carried in runoff from the post-construction site as follows:
1. BMPs shall be designed in accordance with Table 1. or to the maximum extent practicable as provided in subsection 2 below. The design shall be based on average annual rainfall, as compared to no runoff management controls.
Table 1. TSS Reduction Standards
Total Suspended Solids. BMPs shall be designed, installed, and maintained to control total suspended solids carried in runoff from the post-construction site as follows:
a. For new development, by design, reduce to the maximum extent practicable, the total suspended solids load by eighty (80) percent, based on the average annual rainfall, as compared to no runoff management controls. No person shall be required to exceed an eighty (80) percent total suspended solids reduction to meet the requirements of this subsection.
b. For redevelopment, by design, reduce to the maximum extent practicable, the total suspended solids load by forty (40) percent, based on the average annual rainfall, as compared to no runoff management controls. No person shall be required to exceed a forty (40) percent total suspended solids reduction to meet the requirements of this subsection.
c. For in-fill development under five acres that occurs within ten (10) years after the effective date of this rule February 2005, by design, reduce to the maximum extent practicable, the total suspended solids load by forty (40) percent, based on an average annual rainfall, as compared to no runoff management controls. No person shall be required to exceed a forty (40) percent total suspended solids reduction to meet the requirements of this subsection.
d. For in-fill development that occurs ten (10) or more years after the effective date of this rule February 2005, by design, reduce to the maximum extent practicable, the total suspended solids load by eighty (80) percent, based on an average annual rainfall, as compared to no runoff management controls. No person shall be required to exceed an eighty (80) percent total suspended solids reduction to meet the requirements of this subsection.
e. Notwithstanding subsections (C)(1)(a) through (C)(1)(d) of this section, if the design cannot achieve the applicable total suspended solids reduction specified, the stormwater management plan shall include a written and site-specific explanation why that level of reduction is not attained and the total suspended solids load shall be reduced to the maximum extent practicable.
