| Abstract | Long Description |
This manual is a technical guidance and policy manual for permit writers who develop wastewater discharge permits in Washington State. Developing this manual was specified as task element P5 in the 1987 Puget Sound Water Quality Management plan and subsequent amendments. Maintenance and improvement of the manual is recommended in the final report of the Commission for Efficiency and Accountability in Government (1990). The first version of this manual was issued in June, 1989. A 23-member advisory committee assisted the Department of Ecology (Ecology) for one year on policy issues identified in the manual. The advisory committee represented those interested in wastewater permits. An internal work group also assisted in the development of this manual. The primary purposes of this manual are to enhance the quality and consistency of the wastewater discharge permits issued by Ecology and to improve the efficiency of the permitting process.
