OSTI ID:7033966
The major goal of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program is to improve the nation's water quality by reducing or eliminating pollutants from waste streams discharging directly into waterways. The major instrument used to achieve the goal is the NPDES permit which sets limits on the pollutants in direct discharge effluents. The booklet is designed to assist the NPDES permittee in developing, operating, and maintaining a self-monitoring system which will enable the permittee, at a minimum to comply with permit requirements.
