HAZARDOUS WASTE DISCHARGE REPORTING
This notification is intended to provide information to users in the Metro Wastewater Reclamation
District's service area who discharge industrial wastewaters to the sanitary sewer system of their
obligations under 40 CFR 403.12. The District's service area includes Arvada, Aurora, Denver,
Edgewater, Lakewood, Mountain View, Thornton, Wheat Ridge, and parts of Englewood and
Westminster, as well as numerous water and sanitation districts in the metro Denver area.
a.
Within 180 calendar days of commencing any discharge to the POTW of a substance,
which, if otherwise disposed of, would be a hazardous waste under 40 CFR Part 261, the
industrial user shall notify in writing the Metro District, the Regional Waste Management
Director of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Hazardous Materials and Waste
Management Division Director of the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment.
This notification must include the following information:
1)
2)
3)
The name of the hazardous waste as set forth in 40 CFR Part 261.
The EPA hazardous waste number.
The type of discharge (continuous, batch or other).
If the industrial user discharges more than 100 kilograms of such waste per calendar
month to the POTW, the notification shall also:
4)
5)
6)
Identify the hazardous constituents contained in the wastes.
Estimate the mass and concentrations of such constituents in the wastestream
discharged during that calendar month.
Estimate the mass of constituents in the wastestream expected to be discharged
during the following twelve months.
Any notification required by this section needs to be submitted only once for each
hazardous waste discharged.
b.
The industrial user is exempt from the requirements of Paragraph a, above, during a
calendar month in which it discharges no more than 15 kilograms of hazardous wastes,
unless the wastes are acute hazardous wastes as specified in 40 CFR 261.30(d) and
261.33(e). Discharge of more than 15 kilograms of non-acute hazardous wastes in a
calendar month, or of any quantity of acute hazardous wastes, requires one-time
notification, as specified above.
Subsequent months in which the industrial user discharges more than such quantities of
any hazardous waste do not require additional notification.
c.
In the case of any new regulations under Section 3001 of the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA) identifying additional characteristics of hazardous waste or listing
any additional substance as hazardous waste, the industrial user must notify the same
agencies described above of the discharge of such substance within 90 calendar days of
the effective date of the new regulations.
d.
In the case of any notification made pursuant to this section, the industrial user shall certify
that it has a program in place to reduce the volume and toxicity of hazardous wastes
generated to the degree it has determined to be economically practical.

Nonylphenol Notice
Nonylphenol (NP), the starting material and breakdown product of a widely used surfactant,
nonylphenol ethoxylate (NPE), is nearly ubiquitous in the environment. The surfactant, NPE, is
typically used in commercial and industrial laundry detergents, cleaners and soaps; textile
processing; leather processing; pulp and paper manufacturing; paints; and as a dispersing
agent in pesticides and herbicides.
As a result of extensive studies and research, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
determined NP to be extremely toxic to aquatic organisms and their environment and, as such,
established water quality standards for NP at the national level. Colorado’s Water Quality
Control Commission (WQCC) has adopted EPA’s water quality standard for NP of 6.6 parts per
billion, with an effective date of January 1, 2011.
Businesses or establishments that use products containing NP or NPE may have the potential
to violate requirements of the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District’s Rules and Regulations.
Specifically, Section 6.13.15, of the Rules and Regulations prohibits the discharge of any
substance which may cause the District to violate its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) Permit or the receiving water quality standards.
The Metro District recognizes the need for surfactants in the formulation of many products.
However, there are alternative chemicals that can be used in formulations other than NP and
NPE. The Metro District is asking businesses to check their chemical inventories or contact
their chemical manufacturer to determine whether or not chemicals utilized at their facility
contain NP or NPE (chemical list attached). Businesses that use NP or NPE containing
products are asked to select alternative products for use at their facility.
Unless users reduce or eliminate the discharge of these compounds, it will be necessary for the
Metro District to implement a limit for the amount allowed to be discharged to the sanitary
sewers or prohibit the discharge entirely. Each user would be required to demonstrate
compliance with the limit or prohibition.
The Metro District is the wastewater treatment facility for most of the Denver metropolitan area
and it administers a metro area program for the control of industrial waste discharges to the
sanitary sewer system, known as the Pretreatment Program. All businesses, including
industrial, commercial and governmental establishments, are subject to the requirements of the
Pretreatment Program. We are dedicated to protecting our environment and complying with all
applicable regulations, therefore, we ask for the cooperation of businesses and establishments
to assist in the elimination of these compounds in sanitary sewer discharges to enable us to
comply with the adoption of this water quality standard.
Contact Lori Maag (303-286-3434) or Pat Dowell (303-286-3267), Industrial Waste Supervisors
for the Metro District’s Pretreatment/Industrial Waste Control Program, for additional
information.
