§ 424.71 - Specialized definitions.
For the purpose of this subpart:
(a) Except as provided below, the general definitions, abbreviations and methods of analysis set forth in 40 CFR part 401 shall apply to this subpart.
§ 424.72 - Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available.
Except as provided in §§ 125.30 through 125.32, any existing point source subject to this subpart shall achieve the following effluent limitations representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available (BPT):
Effluent characteristic | Effluent limitations | Maximum for any 1 day | Average of daily values for 30 consecutive days shall not exceed— | Metric units (kg/kkg of product) | TSS | 5.276 | 2.638 | Manganese | 2.111 | 1.055 | Chromium | 0.106 | 0.053 | Ammonia-N | 10.553 | 5.276 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) | English units (lb/1,000 lb of product) | TSS | 5.276 | 2.638 | Manganese | 2.111 | 1.055 | Chromium | 0.106 | 0.053 | Ammonia-N | 10.553 | 5.276 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) |

1 Within the range 6.0 to 9.0.
§ 424.73 - Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best available technology economically achievable.
The following limitations establish the quantity or quality of pollutants or pollutant properties, controlled by this section, which may be discharged by a point source subject to the provisions of this subpart after application of the best available technology economically achievable:
Effluent characteristic | Effluent limitations | Maximum for any 1 day | Average of daily values for 30 consecutive days shall not exceed— | Metric units (kg/kkg of product) | Manganese | 0.530 | 0.265 | Chromium | .053 | .027 | Ammonia-N | 5.297 | 2.649 | English units (lb/1,000 lb of product) | Manganese | 0.530 | 0.265 | Chromium | .053 | .027 | Ammonia-N | 5.297 | 2.649 |

§ 424.77 - Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best conventional pollutant control technology.
Except as provided in §§ 125.30 through 125.32, any existing point source subject to this subpart shall achieve the following effluent limitations representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best conventional pollutant control technology (BCT): The limitations shall be the same as those specified for conventional pollutants (which are defined in § 401.16) in § 424.72 of this subpart for the best practicable control technology currently available (BPT).
