If a facility has safety showers and/or eye wash stations, does that constitute “potential to discharge”?
No. “Potential to discharge” only applies to regulated (i.e., in-scope) wastewater sources. As discussed earlier, if the only wastewater that a PFPR facility discharges (or has the potential to discharge) is not a regulated process wastewater under the PFPR effluent guidelines (e.g., sanitary wastewater, employee showers, laundry water), then the PFPR facility is not covered by the PFPR effluent guidelines.
