| Abstract |
The conventional approach to developing Waste Load Allocations (WLAs) is based on a steady state analysis of stream conditions, using a design stream flow (usually the 7Q10) and a receiving water concentration (usually a water quality standard based on chronic criteria) for the pollutant to be allocated. An effluent concentration limit is computed for these conditions, and is used to establish the NPDFS permit conditions. The method used to evaluate the effect of permit averaging periods is based on a probabilistic dilution model (PDM) in which it is assumed that the stream flows, effluent flows and concentration are log-normally distributed and uncorrelated. The log-normal distribution is known to be representative of effluent behavior and to almost always under-estimate the lowest stream flows somewhat. |
