NR 419.045(8) (8) Determination of wastewater characteristics. The determination of the characteristics of a wastewater stream for purposes of this section shall be made as follows:
NR 419.045(8)(a) (a) The characteristics shall be determined at a location between the point where the process wastewater exits a process unit and before the process wastewater is exposed to the atmosphere, treated for VOC removal, or mixed with another wastewater stream. For wastewater streams at a facility meeting the applicability requirements under sub. (1) (a) 1. and 2. and which, prior to February 1, 2012, were either actually being mixed, or construction had commenced which would result in the wastewater streams being mixed, the mixing does not establish a limit on where the characteristics may be determined.
NR 419.045(8)(b) (b) The flow rate of a wastewater stream shall be determined on the basis of an annual average by one of the following methods:
NR 419.045(8)(b)1. 1. The highest annual quantity of wastewater managed, based on historical records for the most recent 5 years of operation, or for the entire time the wastewater stream has existed if less than five years, but at least one year.
NR 419.045(8)(b)2. 2. The maximum design capacity of the waste management unit.
NR 419.045(8)(b)3. 3. The maximum design capacity to generate wastewater of the process unit generating the wastewater stream.
NR 419.045(8)(b)4. 4. Measurements that are representative of the actual, normal wastewater generation rates.
NR 419.045(8)(c) (c) The VOC concentration of a wastewater stream shall be determined on the basis of a flow-weighted annual average by one of the methods in this paragraph, or by a combination of the methods. If the department determines, with written concurrence from EPA, that the VOC concentration cannot be adequately determined by the method in subd.1. or 2., the VOC concentration shall be determined in accordance with subd. 3., or by a combination of the methods in subds. 1., 2., and 3. VOC with a Henry's Law Constant less than 1.8 x 10-6 atm-m3/mole (0.1 y/x) at 25°C may not be included in the determination of VOC concentration.

NR 419.07 Note Note: Certain contaminated soils and water are hazardous wastes. Due to the “mixture", “derived from", and “contained in" rules found in ch. NR 661, soils and water contaminated by listed hazardous waste under ss. NR 661.31 (1) and 661.32, are also hazardous wastes. In addition, any residue or contaminated soil, water or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill of any material listed in s. NR 661.33 is a listed hazardous waste. Soils, water or other debris may also be considered hazardous waste when they exhibit a hazardous characteristic under one of the test procedures of ss. NR 661.20 to 661.24, including the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure test. Contaminated soils and water must be evaluated for the applicability of hazardous waste management rules (chs. NR 660 to 679). The requirements in chs. NR 660 to 679 for the treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste must be followed if the contaminated soil or water is hazardous waste. Requirements in chs. NR 700 to 750 may also apply.
NR 419.07(2) (2) General requirements. Except as provided in sub. (3), no person may use any procedure to remediate or dispose of soil or water contaminated with organic compounds unless the remediation project meets all of the following conditions:
