12-002 Code Vt. R. 12-037-002-X
This rule establishes the permissible wasteloads that may be discharged to the Otter Creek between Moon Brook in Rutland and the Sutherland Falls Dam in Proctor. The wasteload allocation defined herein was developed in conformance with the Agency of Environmental Conservation's Wasteload Allocation Process. The Wasteload Allocation Process (adopted December, 1978 per the requirements of 3 V.S.A., Chapter 25) sets forth the procedural steps that must be followed in adopting a wasteload allocation.
The allocation, defined in terms of a maximum daily load of ultimate oxygen demanding wastes, is as follows:
Allocation | |
Municipality | (lbs UOD/Day) |
Rutland City | 1073 |
Rutland Town | 136 |
West Rutland | 177 |
Mendon | 41 |
Sherburne | 22 |
The adopted wasteload allocation will be implemented through the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit administered by the Vermont Agency of Environmental Conservation (10 V.S.A., Chapter 47).
The allocation will be effective annually for the period June 15-September 15.
