La. Admin. Code tit. 33 § I-3927

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024

Section I-3927 - Determination and Use of Reportable Quantity

A. The reportable quantity list in this Subchapter should be used to determine the need for and timeliness of notification to the department for unauthorized discharges which do not cause an emergency condition. This list is intended as a guide for the regulated community to reportable quantities of some of the more common pollutants. Exclusion of a substance from this list does not relieve the discharger from the reporting requirements of this regulation or from those of other department regulations. Each discharge must be evaluated individually and reported appropriately by the discharger.

B. The basis for determination of the reportable quantity for any pollutant in this Subchapter, unless otherwise noted, will be that quantity of the substance discharged continuously, intermittently, or as a one-time mass discharge within any continuous 24-hour period.

C. The reportable quantity determined under this Subchapter, except where otherwise noted, will apply regardless of the environmental medium (land, air, water, groundwater) into which the pollutant is discharged.
