211.03.
NR 264.03(1)
(1) “Existing source” means any point source, except a new source as defined in
sub. (2), from which pollutants may be discharged either into waters of the state or into a publicly owned treatment works.
NR 264.03(2)
(2) “New source” means any point source from which pollutants are or may be discharged directly to waters of the state or into a publicly owned treatment works and for which construction commenced after August 24, 1982, for point sources subject to the semiconductor and electronic crystals subcategory or March 9, 1983, for point sources subject to the cathode ray tube and luminescent materials subcategories.

NR 264.04
Alternative to monitoring for total toxic organics. NR 264.04(1)(1) Instead of monitoring for TTO, the certification set forth in
sub. (3) may be used as a comment within the discharge monitoring report required by
s. NR 205.07 (3) (d) or
211.15 (4), if the following 4 conditions are met:
NR 264.04(1)(a)
(a) A direct discharger has submitted a solvent management plan to the department; a source which discharges to a POTW has submitted a solvent management plan to the control authority;
NR 264.04(1)(b)
(b) The department or control authority has approved the solvent management plan;
NR 264.04(1)(c)
(c) The solvent management plan has been incorporated into the discharger's permit; and
NR 264.04(1)(d)
(d) The solvent management plan is being implemented to the satisfaction of the department or control authority.
NR 264.04(2)
(2) The solvent management plan shall specify the following:
NR 264.04(2)(b)
(b) A toxic organic compound disposal method other than dumping, such as reclamation, contract hauling, or incineration.
NR 264.04(2)(c)
(c) The procedures used to assure that toxic organic compounds do not routinely spill or leak into the wastewater.
“Based on my inquiry of the person or persons directly responsible for managing compliance with the permit limitation for total toxic organics (TTO), I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, no dumping of concentrated toxic organics into the wastewaters has occurred since the filing of the last discharge monitoring report. I further certify that this facility is implementing the solvent management plan submitted to the department or POTW.”
