Hydroelectric Generating Facilities
The Notice of Availability of the draft NPDES General Permit for Discharges at Hydroelectric Generating Facilities in Massachusetts (MAG360000) and New Hampshire (NHG360000) was published in the Federal Register on November 28, 2003 (see 68 Fed. Reg. 66826). The public comment period closed on January 16, 2004. EPA New England is reviewing and evaluating all the public comments and is working on a final permit decision.
The draft general permit is for specific discharges at hydroelectric generating facilities located in Massachusetts and New Hampshire and Indian Country lands in Massachusetts. These discharges are equipment cooling water, equipment and floor drain water, equipment backwash water, and specific equipment maintenance waters. The permit establishes notice of intent requirements, effluent limitations, standards, prohibitions, and best management practices. The river flow over the dam or through the turbines is not regulated by the general permit.
