Should initial certification paperwork be completed before installing full-scale treatment?
Indirect dischargers must set up a compliance schedule with their POTW or control authority that specifies milestones to be achieved to assure compliance by November 6, 1999, including the installation and operation of any necessary treatment required prior to discharge. The initial certification paperwork must be completed by or before the compliance deadline. Direct dischargers must complete the initial certification paperwork by the time of permit issuance, reissuance, or renewal.
