Examples of Suspended Solids in a sentence

  • For publicly owned treatment works, the 30-day average percent removal for Carbonaceous Biochemical Oxygen Demand (CBOD5) and Total Suspended Solids shall not be less than 85 percent unless otherwise authorized by the permitting authority in accordance with 40 CFR Part 133.102, as incorporated by reference in 327 IAC 5-2-1.5. The permittee must monitor the influent and effluent CBOD5 and TSS at least once per month and calculate the percent removal to ensure compliance with the required 85 percent removal.

  • The outfall(s) must be sampled quarterly unless the facility has representative outfalls.Visual monitoring requirements are waived if the facility is in compliance with and can demonstrate participation in the implementation of an established Department Approved Watershed Management Plan; or if the facility is conducting Benchmark, Impaired Waters sampling and analysis, or Numeric Monitoring for Total Suspended Solids (TSS).

  • For publicly owned treatment works, the 30-day average (or Monthly Average) percent removal for Biochemical Oxygen Demand and Total Suspended Solids shall not be less than 85 percent unless otherwise authorized by the permitting authority in accordance with 40 CFR 133.103.

  • Visual monitoring requirements are waived if the facility is in compliance with and can demonstrate participation in the implementation of an established Department Approved Watershed Management Plan; or if the facility is conducting Benchmark, Impaired Waters sampling and analysis, or Numeric Monitoring for Total Suspended Solids (TSS).

  • Water Authority review and approval of the proposed system is a condition for obtaining a Building Permit.• The proposed development requires Aerobic Treatment Unit(s) with NSF/ANSI Standard 40 (or equivalent) certification that, when operated and maintained per manufacturer’s guidelines, the system achieves effluent quality of 30 mg/L Biochemical Oxygen Demand and 30 mg/L Total Suspended Solids.
