Facility Name:King County South WWTP

Category:Numeric effluent violation
Type:Effluent Violations

Notes: McKone: This is a tricky violation. The reported value is accurate and it exceeded the limit in the permit. However, I question whether the limit is appropriate for a short-duration, intermittent discharge. The reported value represented the average concentration discharged over 1.5 hrs into the Green River. Based on ambient sampling done at the time of this discharge, it did not appear to cause an exceedance of the water quality standard for the river.
