Application of effluent limitations and standards. NR 294.06(1)(1) The effluent limitations and standards set forth in this chapter shall be used in accordance with this section to establish the quantity or quality of pollutants or pollutant properties which may be discharged by a point source subject to the provisions of this chapter, except as;
NR 294.06(1)(b)
(b) They may be superseded by more stringent limitations and standards necessary to achieve water quality standards or meet other legal requirements, or
NR 294.06(1)(c)
(c) They may be supplemented or superseded by standards or prohibitions for toxic pollutants or by additional limitations for other pollutants required to achieve water quality.
NR 294.06(2)
(2) The production basis for application of the limitations and standards set forth in this chapter shall be the daily average for a maximum month for the facility in each subcategory subject to the provisions of this chapter.
NR 294.06(3)
(3) The process waste discharge limitations for a facility subject to the provisions of this chapter shall be the sum of effluent limitations determined for the production of the facility in each of the applicable process or product subcategories.
NR 294.06(4)
(4) For operations in subcategories (15) and (16) which are not fast turnaround operations the effluent limitations are as set forth in the tables of

NR 294.06(4)(a)
(a) By addition to determine the daily maximum for either subcategory,
NR 294.06(4)(b)
(b) By addition of the factor divided by 30 and multiplied by the number of turnarounds in excess of 6 in a 30 day period to determine the daily average limitation for subcategory (15) and
NR 294.06(4)(c)
(c) By addition of the factor divided by 30 and multiplied by the number of turnarounds in excess of 8 in a 30 day period to determine the daily average limitation for subcategory (16).
