Purpose


In 1995, EPA authorized the Department to implement the National Pretreatment program to control pollutants from industrial dischargers which have the potential to pass-through or interfere with the operation of domestic wastewater treatment facilities. The Department currently regulates 63 approved programs and those programs regulate a total of 744 industrial users through permitting. To implement the program, the Department originally adopted Chapter 62-625, F.A.C., in November 1994. Chapter 62-625, F.A.C., was last amended January 8, 1997. The Department is now amending Chapter 62-625, F.A.C., to incorporate the October 2005 revisions of 40 CFR Part 403 and to clean up and clarify existing language.
