Project Description:
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is pursuing a Department Initiated Modification (DIM) and renewal to the State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) Permit (NY0020818), pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 750-1.18, and 750-1.19, the Priority Ranking System known as New York State's Environmental Benefit Permit Strategy (EBPS).
The Potsdam Wastewater Pollution Control Plant has a design flow of 3.5 mgd. Treatment consists of preliminary, primary and secondary treatments. Sludge is taken to Adon Farms, Parishville, NY and grit is disposed in DANC landfill, Rodman, NY. The facility has treated surface discharge to the Raquette River, a class B water.
The following changes to the permit are proposed: Permit pages have been updated based on current DEC guidance, format and nomenclature. A Mercury Minimization Program has been added due to the low level mercury detection during the sample test. Daily maximum monitoring for flow and temperature has been added. Seasonal disinfection requirement period has been changed to better protect contact recreation uses. Footnote #2 has been updated. Stormwater outfall has been added.
