EPA published proposed "best conventional pollutant control technology" (BCT] for selected industries. The proposed regulations were developed in response to Section 304(b)(4)(B) of the 1977 Amendments to the Clean Water Act (CWA). Section 304(b)(4)(B) instructs EPA to determine BCT through an analysis o Hit reasonableness of the relationship between the costs of attaining a reduction In effluents end the affluent reduction benefits derived, end thu comparison of the cost and level of reduction of such pollutants from the discharge of publicly owned ireatae'U works to the cost and levjl of red.icti.To of sich pollutant* from a class or category of industrial sources. The Act also specifies that additional consideration be given In making BCT determinations to the age of equipment, production process, energy requirements, and other appropriate factors. BCT is not an additional effluent limitation for industrial dischargers, but rather it replaces `best available technology economically achievable" (BAT) for the control of conventional pollutants. BAT will remain in force for all non-conventional and toxic pollutants. Effluent limitations representing BCT may not be more stringent than BAT. However. BCT. like BAT. is subject to periodic review, and progress in waste treatment technology may warrant subsequent revision. In no case will BCT limitations be leas stringent than limitations representing "best practicable technology currently available" (BPT). Section 73 of the CWA of1977 directs the Agency to review, immediately, all existing final or interim final BAT effluent guidelines for conventional pollutants In those industries not covered in the Settlement Agreement reached in NRDC v. Trtu'a. 8 ERC 2120 (DD.C. 1978). These industries are o'>en referred to as "secondary industries." This review was to be completed within will remain in effect. In some instances, industry studies currently underway are expected to result snovtly in thp necessary data to establish .law standards (the seafoods industry, the cane sugar subcatrgories of tor sugar processing industry, acd three subcetegoriee in the fruit and vegetable processing industry). In other instances, data submitted by industry warrants further consideration (four subcatescries in the meat processing industry, the beet sugar subcategory of the sugar processing industry, the frozen potato subcategory, and parts of tha condensed milk end condensed whey subcategory). Adequate information is not currently available on industry operations lo conduct the necessary analyses for duck feedlots. In a final esse, some limitations in certain meat products subcategoriea have been remanded by a court for reconsideration. and BPT will be set at the conclusion of that process. EPA expects to use the methodology employed in this BCT review when an analysia of conventional pollutant treatment requirements is conducted for the primary industries (these indiatries to be covered by tha Consent Agreement). National BCT limitations will be proposed and promulgateff'along with BAT. pretreatment and new source standards. The explicit application of the BCT methodology to each industry SO days of enactment of the Ad will be detailed at the time eacn 2. Industries Covered by TMs Review regulation Is proposed. As directed by Congress. EPA has ` X Pollutants Covered by tha Review evaluated all BAT regulations for conventional pollutants which apply to industries not covered by the NRDC Settlement Agreement (those not fisted in Table 2 of Committee Print No. 85-30 of the Committee on Public Works sod Transportation of the House at Representatives). Thirteen secondary industry categories have final or interim final BAT effluent guidelines. These are fitted in Tables 1 and 2. Complete analysis has not been carried out on all of the subcategories in these industries. Section 304(c)(4) of the Act specifies that conventional pollutants should Include, but not be limited to, biochemical oxygen demanding pollutants (BOD5). total suspended solids (TSS), fecal coliform. and pH. The Agency, in a separate action, has designated oil and grease as a conventional pollutant (44 FR 44501, July 30.1979) and this review of BAT effluent guidelines includes oil and grease in the analysts of reasonableness where In those cases where conventional appropriate. In foe cose of both fecal pollutant BAT limitations are equivalent coliform and pH, the BAT regulations to BPT. no further analysia Is necessary. under review were in all cases Since BPT constitutes a floor below which BCT may not be established, all BAT limitations set at that point are reasonable, and are befog promulgated as BCT. The 20 subcategories which fall Into this group are lbted in Table 1. The 93 eubcategoriee In Table 2 seen studied further. Of the 83 subcategories, BAT regulations for 43 are not finally promulgated or are withdrawn for a variety of other reasons. BCT Limitations will be set at a later date, and BPT alone equivalent to BPT regulations. Therefore, no further analysis has been performed on these pollutants, and BCT controls of pH and fecal coliform will be the same a* BPT. Consequently, the pollutants considered in this review are BOD3L TSS. end oil and grease. ! at any time, pollutants are added or deleted from the conventional pollutant (let Hie Agency will reevaluate ell effluent guidelines affected by such revisions. 152 7415453 --7 v *--.> Federal Register / Vol. 44.

If the BAT standard (a) Background. The objective of this review is to evaluate existing BAT limitations for the "secondary" Industries to determine if they satisfy the criteria for BCT contained i> section 304(b)(4)(B). That section, which requires a consideration of the "East reasonableness" of effluent limitations for conventional pollutants, has necessitated the development of a wholly new methodology for evaluating existing effluent limitations and for developing subsequent BCT limitations. 1 In developing the methodology for this regulation. EPA was guided both by the statutory language of section 304(b)(4)(B) and by Congress' underlying objectives in establishing BCT. The legislative history makes it dear that Congress was concerned that requirements for the control of ___ conventional pollutants, beyond BPT may, in some cases, be unreasonably expensive. Congress recognized that at some point costs for such control begin to exceed associated "effluent reduction benefits", and thus established BCT to ensure that any limitations controlling conventional pollutants at a level more stringent than BPT were "reasonable". This regulation satisfies those objectives. The core of the Agency's BCT methodology is a comparison of tha coats of removing additional pounds of conventional pollutants for industry with comparable costs of removal for an average publicly owned treatment works (POTW). This cost figure for the POTW constitutes the basic measure of "reasonableness" established by the Act. As Senator Muskie noted: The Administrator must determine, whether or not the cost of achieving reductions of conventional pollutants bears s reasonable relationship to tha amount of affluent reduction achieved. In making this determination, the Administrator is to compare the costs of industrial effluent reduction to the coat of municipal waste treatment. There are, however, a range of (3) A uniform measure of reasonableness Is established for all Industries throughout the country. This ensures that no industry will be required to exceed a specified cost per pound for removal of conventional pollutants. In consequence. Industries with high costs for removal of conventional pollutants, in many cases, will be subject to lass stringent effluent' limitations. (4) A greater proportion of the total costa for control of conventional : pollutants will now be allocated to industries and segments of industries comprised of large facilities. These facilities are able to remove conventional pollutants at the lowest cost (5) Tha final methodology results in the relief which Congress Intended for control of conventional pollutants, and resolves the uneven Impact of existing BAT limitations. Of the 93 industry subcategories evaluated in detail in this review. 22 hava reasonable BAT limitations, 13 have unreasonable limitations, 0 have aplitdetermination* depending on the size of plant 7 are not affected by this review because tha BAT limitations In those cases are designed to control toxic pollutants, while the remaining 40 aa noted above will require further analysis. For those subcategories In which BAT was found to.be unreasonable, or requiring further analysis, EPA will undertake further study to dsvalop appropriate BCT limitations. These new limitations will result in a substantial reduction in expenditures for control of conventional pollutants. While this regulation covers only secondary Industries, when the methodology Is applied to the development of BCT limitations for the control of conventional pollutants in tha primary industries, substantial additional savings will b* realized (b) The BCT Teat The BCT test compares tha coat for industry to remove a pound of conventional pollutants to the cost Incurred by a doss not pass tha teat, tha existing BAT is being withdrawn until an appropriate BCT can be set (1) Calculation oflnduitrial Costs: Tha Incremental annual costa are calculated by determining the difference between the iTMl costa for a modal plant representing an Industrial subcatagory to achieve BPT and the annual costa to achieve the candidate BCT for conventional pollutants. Annual costs include- operation and maintenance expenses, capital costs, and depredation. Tha data used by EPA in determining Industrial coats for this review are drawn from tha Agency Development Documents which were prepared for each of tha affected Industries (See Appendix A). The data are updated to 1978 dollars, so that they can be compared on a consistent basis. (2) Calculation ofInduatrial Pollutant RemovaliThe Incremental removal of conventional pollutants is calculated by determining the difference between the annual pounds of conventional pollutants removed after compliances with BPT and the pounds removed after compliance with the candidata BCT. The conventional pollutants subject to thig, review fall into two categories: suspended solids (TSS), and oxygen demanding substances (BODJ and oil and grease). To avoid "double counting" of the amount of pollutants removed, the incremental pounds removed from BPT to candidate BCT are calculated using only one pollutant horn each group. In those cases where both BOD5 and oil and grease are subject to limitations, tha pollutant with tha greater amount of removal la Included in the calculation.

Methodology for Datirmining Reeaanefaleoeu of BAT Regulations directly incorporated in the cost per pound comparison. BCT Is being promulgated as equivalent to the former BAT. If the BAT standard (a) Background. The objective of this review is to evaluate existing BAT limitations for the "secondary" Industries to determine if they satisfy the criteria for BCT contained is section 304(b)(4)(B). That section, which requires a consideration of the "5ost reasonableness" of effluent limitations for conventional pollutants, has necessitated the development of a wholly new methodology for evaluating existing effluent limitations and for developing subsequent BCT limitations. In developing the methodology for this regulation, EPA was-guided both by the statutory language of section 304(b)(4)(B) and by Congress' underlying objectives In establishing BCT. The legislative history makes it deer that Congress was concerned that requirements for the control of ___ conventional pollutants, beyond BPT may, in some cases, be unreasonably expensive. Congress recognized that at same point costs for such control begin to exceed associated "effluent reduction benefits", and thus established BCT to ensure that any limitations controlling conventional pollutants at a level more stringent than BPT were "reasonable". This regulation satisfies those objectives. The core of the Agency's BCT methodology is a comparison of the costs of removing additional pounds of conventional pollutants for industry with comparable costs of removal for an average publidy owned treatment works (POTW). This cost figure for the POTW constitutes the basic measure of "reasonableness" established by the Act As Senator Muskie noted: The Administrator must determine,whether or not the cost of schievtng reductions of conventions! pollutants besn s rsesonebie relationship to the amount of effluent reduction achieved. In making this determination, the Administrator is to compart the costs of industrial effluent reduction to the cost of municipal wastt treatment. There are. however, a range of (3) A uniform measure of reasonableness Is established for all Industries throughout the country. This ensures that no industry will be required to exceed a specified cost per pound for removal of conventional pollutants. In consaqusnce. Industries with high costs for removal of conventional pollutants, in many cases, will be subject to less stringent affluent limitations. (4) A greater proportion of the total coats for control of conventional pollutants will now be allocated to Industries and ssgments of industries comprised of large facilities. These facilities are able to remove conventional pollutants at the lowest cost (5) The final methodology results in the relief which Congress Intended for control of conventional pollutants, and resolves ths uneven Impact of existing BAT limitations. Of the 93 industry subeategories evaluated in detail in this review, 22 have reasonable BAT limitations. 13 have unreasonable limitations, 6 have splifdeterminationi depending on the size of plant. 7 are not affected by this review because the BAT limitations in those oases are designed to control toxic pollutants, while the remaining 4S as noted above will require further analysis. For those subcategories in which BAT was found to.be unreasonable, or requiring further analysis. EPA will undertake further study to develop appropriate BCT limitations. These new limitations will result in a substantial reduction in expenditures for control of conventional pollutants. While this regulation covers only secondary industries, when the methodology is applied to the development of BCT limitations for the control of conventional pollutantj in the primary industries, substantial additional savings will be realized (b) This BCT Teat The BCT test compares the cost for industry to remove t pound of conventional pollutants to the cost Incurred by a does not pass the test the existing BAT is being withdrawn until on appropriate BCT can be set. (l) Calculation ofIndustrial Costs; The incremental annual costs are calculated by determining the difference between the coeta for e model plant representing an industrial subcategory to achieve BPT and the annual costa to achieve the candidate BCT for conventional pollutants. Annual costs include operation and maintenance expenses, capital casts, and depredation. The data used by EPA In determining industrial costs for this review are drawn from the Agency Development Documents which were prepared for each of the affected Industries (See Appendix A). The data are updated to 1978 dollars, so that they can be compared on a consistent basis. (2) Calculation ofIndustrial Pollutant Removal: The incremental removal of conventional pollutants is calculated by determining the difference between the annual pounds of conventional pollutants removed after compliance) with BPT and the pounds removed after compliance with the candidate BCT. The conventional pollutants subject to thig review fall Into two categories: suspended solids (TSS), and oxygen demanding substances (BOOS and oil and pease). To avoid "double counting" of the amount of pollutants removed the incremental pounds removed from BPT lo candidate BCT are calculated using only one pollutant from each group. In those cases where both BODS and oil and grease are subject to limitations, the pollutant with ths greater amount of removal ia included in the calculation. If a group ia not represented in the effluent limitation guideline for the subcategory, thenjt is not Included in the evaluation. Table 3 details the pollutants to be used in the calculation.

It is flow. Costs for these POTWs ranged clear, however, that tha POTW coats are from 136 to $1.72 per pound of pollutant removed. This approach resulted in some industries with relatively high treatment costs being ludged to have reasonable BAT limitations because they were compared to a POTW with a high cost. Other industries, however, with relatively low costs, were determined to have unreasonable BAT limitations because the POTW they were measured against had low costs. To rectify this inequity. EPA is now employing a single POTW comparisonfigure based on an average size POTW of 2 mgd. This approach will result in a more "economically efficient" solution. Those subcategories that can cheaply achieve stringent limitations will continue to do so. but for those where it is relatively expensive, some relief will be given. Ifte single coat figure approach has the additional advantage of being far easier to apply. A discussion of tha specific calculation of tha POTW figure is contained in Appendix B. (c) The Concentration Test Tha methodology used by EPA in developing the proposed BCT regulations Included a second, "concentration test", that wad applied to any industry regulation which did not pass die BCT test In cases where an industry's effluent had an significantly higher pollutant to provide a benchmark for judging tha "reasonableness" of industry limitations. One appropriate measure of POTW costs is the marginal costs of removal at secondary treatment Although Congress did not state that tha secondary treatment level was significant in determining BCT. it Is the current legal requirement for most POTWs and the level at which the bulk of existing POTWs are now operating. Calculation of tha costs per pound of conventional pollutant removal based on tha increment from secondary to advanced secondary yields the beat approximation of such marginal costs. Although an Increment which narrowly straddles secondary treatment would have been preferable in ^identifying marginal costs, adequats data on such an Increment do not exist. In establishing the POTW cost comparison figure. Congress may also have been concerned with identifying the "knee-of-the-curve" for POTW coats and effluent reduction benefits. The Agency has submitted to Congress analyses which indicate that costs for pollution control to achieve pollutant concentrations lower than 10 mg/1 of BOD and 10 mg/1 of TSS begin to rise sharply in relation to effluent reduction benefits. Essentially, advanced concentration than a POTW. BAT secondary treatment marks the "knee- requirements were retained as BCT. of-the-curve" with respect to POTW This test was uniformly opposed by commenters, who argued that It costs. Use of the secondary to advanced secondary Increment thus effectively discourages water conservation, and is determines the cost per pound to abritrary and one-sided. EPA agrees, achieve this maximum, cost-effective and has decided that the concentration level of control. test will not be used in making BCT Finally, basing the comparison figure determinations. on the cost of a POTW to upgrade from July 1,1984. The comparable requirement for POTWs la achievement of "beat practicable wastewater treatment technology" ("BPWTT'] by July 1.1983. However. BPWTT haa never been precisely defined by EPA. and most POTWs will continue to operate at secondary treatment Nonetheless, Congress haa not modified the obligation of POTWs to achieve more stringent levels. Although concerned with funding of expensive advanced wastewater treatment systems. Congress haa continued to fund construction of POTWs at better than secondary levels. EPA haa judged that funding for construction of POTWs employing advanced secondary treatment is reasonable, and not subject to special intensified review. (e) Calculation of Conventional Pollutant Removal. EPA originally proposed that if BOD5 and oil and grease were both regulated, only the pounds of BODd were to be Included ixr the calculation of the Incremental pounds of conventional pollutants removed. Thia has been modified and * when both an regulated, the pollutant with tha greater amount of removal will be Included in tha calculation. The Agency feels that the total effluent reduction benefits an beat identified by using the pollutant in a given category which haa the gnater amount of removal in the calculation. However, a single pollutant in a category will continue to be used in the calculation because of tha diffloilty of allocating costs of removal between pollutants. Additionally, total phosphorus and chemical oxygen demand were proposed as conventional pollutants, and they were included in the-Agency's proposed BCT methodology. However, the proposal to designate these pollutants as conventional has been withdrawn, and they have been excluded from consideration in thia rulemaking. 7. information Available Copies of the Fedaral Regisfar notice can be obtained, without charge, by contacting: Sandra Jonea.

The EPA has considered carefully all of the com ments received and a discussion of these comments with the Agency's response thereto follows. a. Summary of comments. The fol lowing responded to the request for writ ten comments contained in the preamble to the proposed regulation: Asbestos Information Association/North America and Raybestoa-Manhattan, Inc. Each of tha comments received was carefully reviewed and analysed. The fol lowing Is a summary of the significant comments and the Agency's response to them. 1. Several comments were mads which questioned the appropriateness of carbon absorption columns as the best available technology economically achievable dustries. In the effluent limitations guidelines herewith promulgated, this has been ac complished by expressing the U.-rutat.an.s in terms of weight of pollutants per weight of finished coated textiles for the solvent recovery subeategory and weight of pollutants per unit of air scrubbed lor the wet dust collection subcategory. b. Revision of the proposed reputa tions prior to promulgation. As a result of public comments and continuing re view and evaluation of the proposed regulation by the EPA. the following changes have been made In the regula tion.
