Neither free available nor total residual chlorine may be' discharged from any single generating unit for more than two hours in any one day and not more than one unit in any plant may discharge free available or total residual chlorine at any one time unless the permittee can demonstrate that the units at the permitted location cannot operate at or below this level of chlorination. When blowdown is -

occurring, grab samples shall be taken at least every 30 minutes to verify compliance with free available chlorine limitations unless the permittee verifies that free available chlorine levels are less than detectable prior to blowdown, and no chlorination occurs during the blowdown event. In this event, sampling for free available chlorine may be by a single representative grab sample only. The permittee : .

shall not use cooling tower maintenance chemicals which contain any of the 126 priority pollutants, found in Appendix A to 40 CFR 423, ' ',

C. ' EFFLUENT 1DXK'ITY LIMITATIONS AND BIOMONITORING REQUIREMENTS i

1. The permittee shall perform shon. term chronic screening tests on DSN001 effluent la I accordance with the cunent edition of the " EPA Short Tenn Methods for Estimating the !

Chronic Toxicity of Effluents and Receiving Waters to Freshwater Organisms."

2. The above biomonitoring tests shall begin 90 days after the effective date of this permit, l and be performed once per six (6) months through the expiration date of this permit. 1 Biomomtoring test resu ts obtained during each period shall be summarized on the !

appropriate repon form approved by the Depanment, and submitted no later than 28 +

days following the period. Samples collected for biomonitoring tests shall be collected ;

during periods of cooling tower blowdown. After completion of two (2) years of conductmg blomonitoring and all tests pass the criteria, then the testing frequency shall !

(The samples shall be diluted using an appropriate control water, to the Instream Waste Concentration (IWC) of 9% DSN001 effluent for each test.) An appropriate control water shall be selected by the permittee but must be approved by the Department prior to use in the above tests.

5. Should results of any test required i.oove indicate there is a statistically significant difference at the 95% confidence level between the control and the DSN001 effluent for i either the fathead minnow survival and growth test or the Ceriodaphnia survival and ,

reproduction test, the permittee shall perfonn that test at an accelerated frequency in accordance with the following requirements:

a. These additional biomonitoring tests shall begin 30 days after the DSN001 effluent has been found to be potentially toxic, and shall be perfc.rmed one (1) per week for two (2) weeks. Biomonitoring test results obtair.e d during each month shall be summarized on the appropriate repon form approved by the Department, and submitted no later than 28 days after the mor.th in which the tests were performed. .

b. After the test period is complete and all test data is received, the Department will review the data to determine if the DSN001 effluent is chronically toxic. If more than 20% of the test organisms die in the control water during the test, the -

results shall not be reponed, and the test shall be rerun.

6. If the Depanment determines tlw DSN001 effluent to be chronically toxic at the IWC, i the following will be required: l t

a. Part One of a Toxicity Reduction Evaluation (TRE) shall be required to be '

submitted for review by the De sartment within 45 days after the permittee ,

receives notice that the DSN001 effluent is considered chronically toxic. i Following review of Part One of the TRE a schedule for submittal of Part Two .

will be established by the Depanment. Im >lementation of any corrective action i

. required by the Part Two submittal shall x completed in accordance with the '

approved schedule contained in that submittal. Failure to comply with any i requirement of the approved schedule shall be considered a permit violation, r

b. Accelerated biomonitoring tests as discussed in item 5. above will not be required during the period of TRE preparation.

7. Definitions

( . a. Instream Waste Concentration (IWC) is the actual concentration or e.nuent in (

l the receiving stream during a 7-day 10 year low flow period after mixing.

I l

b. A TRE is defined as a plan to determine what actions will be required for I complying with effluent toxicity limitations. The TRE plan is completed in two i pans; 1) Jetermination of which control options are to be evaluated, and 2)

Evaluation of these control options to determine which will be optimum for

attaining compliance. The second phase of the TRE shall include a schedule for -
