NR 233.305(3) (3)“Periodic certification statement" means a written submission to the department or control authority which states that the pollution prevention alternative as set forth in the WPDES permit or pretreatment control mechanism is being implemented. Any modification of the practices listed in Table 8 must be justified. The periodic certification statement shall be signed by the responsible corporate officer as defined in 40 CFR 122.22 or s. NR 211.15 (10).
NR 233.305(4)(a)(a) “Pollution prevention allowable discharge for indirect dischargers excluding interior wastewater, leak and spill clean-up water, and floor wash" means the quantity or concentrations of pollutants in PFPR process wastewaters that remain after a facility has demonstrated that it is using the specified practices of the pollution prevention alternative as listed in Table 8.

Additionally the wastewaters shall have been pretreated using appropriate pollution control technologies as defined in s. NR 233.03 (1e), a pesticide manufacturer's treatment system, or an equivalent system, used individually or in any combination to achieve a sufficient level of pollutant reduction. Pretreatment requirements may be modified or waived by the control authority to the extent that removal credits have been granted in accordance with s. NR 211.13, provided the granting of the credits does not result in pass through or interference as defined in s. NR 211.03 and complies with the provisions of s. NR 211.10. The facility shall demonstrate that the appropriate pollution control technology is properly maintained and operated.
NR 233.305(5) (5)“Pollution prevention allowable discharge for direct dischargers" in this subchapter means the quantity of concentrations of pollutants in PFPR process wastewaters that remain after a facility has demonstrated that it is using the specified practices of the pollution prevention alternative as listed in Table 8. Additionally the wastewaters shall have been treated using appropriate pollution control technologies, as defined in s.

List of Pollution Prevention Alternative Practices - See PDF for table PDF
1A modification to the list of practices on this table that an individual facility shall comply with to be eligible for the pollution prevention alternative is allowed with acceptable justification. This justification is listed on this table and as approved by the permitting or control authority using best practical judgment or best engineering judgment after submittal by the facility of a request for modification. A modification, for purposes of this table, means that a facility would no longer have to perform a listed practice or would need to comply with a modified practice. However, the modification only applies to the specific practice for which the modification has been justified and to no other listed practices. Facilities are required to thoroughly discuss all modifications in the on-site compliance paperwork as described in this subchapter in the limitations and standards as in s. NR 233.305(2).
2After following the practices above, some wastewaters for indirect dischargers may require pretreatment prior to discharge to POTWs. See definition of pollution prevention allowable discharge for indirect dischargers as defined in s. NR 233.305.
3After following the practices above, all wastewaters for direct dischargers shall require treatment prior to discharge directly to the state's waters. See definition of pollution prevention allowable discharge for direct dischargers as defined in s. NR 233.305.
4Additional information and guidance on implementing these pollution prevention practices as well as evaluating compliance with these practices will be available in a pollution prevention guidance manual for the PFPR industry.
