Do all facilities within the scope of the PFPR rule have to meet zero discharge by the November 6, 1999 compliance date?
No. Existing indirect discharging facilities have to be in compliance with either zero discharge or the P2 alternative on a source by source basis no later than November 6, 1999. Existing direct dischargers must be in compliance at the time of issuance, reissuance, or modification of their NPDES permit.
