7. O&M for the pump station and the main wastewater transmission
pipeline.
S4.B. Bypass procedures
This permit prohibits a bypass, which is the intentional diversion of waste streams
from any portion of a treatment facility. The City may take enforcement action
against a Permittee for a bypass unless one of the following circumstances (1, 2,
or 3) applies.
1. Bypass for essential maintenance without the potential to cause violation of
permit limits or conditions.
This permit authorizes a bypass if it allows for essential maintenance and does
not have the potential to cause violations of limits or other conditions of this
permit, or adversely impact public health as determined by the City prior to
the bypass. The Permittee must submit prior notice, if possible, at least ten
(10) days before the date of the bypass.

Page 17 of 32
Permit No. 1WDP
Effective 07/01/2015
2. Bypass is unavoidable, unanticipated, and results in noncompliance of this
permit.
This permit authorizes such a bypass only if:
a. Bypass is unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe
property damage. "Severe property damage" means substantial physical
damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which would cause
them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural
resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a
bypass.
b. No feasible alternatives to the bypass exist, such as:
The use of auxiliary treatment facilities.
Retention of untreated wastes.
Stopping production.
Maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime, but not if
the Permittee should have installed adequate backup equipment in the
exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass.
Transport of untreated wastes to another treatment facility.
c. The Permittee has properly notified the City of the bypass as required in
Condition SIF of this permit.
3. If bypass is anticipated and has the potential to result in noncompliance of this
permit.
a. The Permittee must notify the City at least thirty (30) days before the
planned date of bypass. The notice must contain:
A description of the bypass and its cause.
An analysis of all known alternatives which would eliminate, reduce,
or mitigate the need for bypassing.
A cost-effectiveness analysis of alternatives including comparative
resource damage assessment.
The minimum and maximum duration of bypass under each
alternative.
A recommendation as to the preferred alternative for conducting the
bypass.
The projected date of bypass initiation.
A statement of compliance with SEPA.
A request for modification of water quality standards as provided for
in WAC 173-201A-410, if an exceedance of any water quality
standard is anticipated.
Details of the steps taken or planned to reduce, eliminate, and prevent
reoccurrence of the bypass.
b. For probable construction bypasses, the Permittee must notify the City of
the need to bypass as early in the planning process as possible. The
Permittee must consider the analysis required above during the project
City Permit - Industrial to POTW/Private
Page 18 of 32
Permit No. IWDP
Effective 07/01/2015
planning and design process. The project -specific engineering report or
facilities plan as well as the plans and specifications must include details
of probable construction bypasses to the extent practical. In cases where
the Permittee determines the probable need to bypass early, the Permittee
must continue to analyze conditions up to and including the construction
period in an effort to minimize or eliminate the bypass.
c. The City will consider the following prior to issuing an administrative
order for this type of bypass:
If the bypass is necessary to perform construction or
maintenance -related activities essential to meet the requirements of
this permit.
If feasible alternatives to bypass exist, such as the use of auxiliary
treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes, stopping production,
maintenance during normal periods of equipment down time, or
transport of untreated wastes to another treatment facility.
If the Permittee planned and scheduled the bypass to minimize adverse
effects on the public and the environment.
After consideration of the above and the adverse effects of the proposed bypass
and any other relevant factors, the City will approve or deny the request. The
City will give the public an opportunity to comment on bypass incidents of
significant duration, to the extent feasible. The City will approve a request to
bypass by issuing an administrative order.

APPENDIX A
LIST OF POLL UTANTS WITH ANAL YTICAL METHODS, DETECTION
LIMITS AND Q UANTITA TION LE VELS
The Permittee must use the specified analytical methods, detection limits (DLs) and quantitation
levels (QLs) in the following table for permit and application required monitoring unless:
Another permit condition specifies other methods, detection levels, or quantitation levels.
The method used produces measurable results in the sample and EPA has listed it as an
EPA -approved method in 40 CFR Part 136.
If the Permittee uses an alternative method, not specified in the permit and as allowed above, it
must report the test method, DL, and QL on the discharge monitoring report or in the required
report.
If the Permittee is unable to obtain the required DL and QL in its effluent due to matrix effects,
the Permittee must submit a matrix -specific detection limit (MDL) and a quantitation limit (QL)
to the City with appropriate laboratory documentation.
When the permit requires the Permittee to measure the base neutral compounds in the list of
priority pollutants, it must measure all of the base neutral pollutants listed in the table below.
The list includes EPA required base neutral priority pollutants and several additional polynuclear
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The Water Quality Program added several PAHs to the list of
base neutrals below from the City's Persistent Bioaccumulative Toxics (PBT) List. It only added
those PBT parameters of interest to Appendix A that did not increase the overall cost of analysis
unreasonably.
The City added this appendix to the permit in order to reduce the number of analytical "non -
detects" in permit -required monitoring and to measure effluent concentrations near or below
criteria values where possible at a reasonable cost.

1. Detection level (DL) or detection limit means the minimum concentration of an analyte
(substance) that can be measured and reported with a 99% confidence that the analyte
concentration is greater than zero as determined by the procedure given in 40 CFR part
136, Appendix B.
2. Quantitation Level (QLD also known as Minimum Level of Quantitation (ML) - The
lowest level at which the entire analytical system must give a recognizable signal and
acceptable calibration point for the analyte. It is equivalent to the concentration of the
lowest calibration standard, assuming that the lab has used all method -specified sample
weights, volumes, and cleanup procedures. The QL is calculated by multiplying the MDL
by 3.18 and rounding the result to the number nearest to (1, 2, or 5) x 10", where n is an
integer. (64 FR 30417).
ALSO GIVEN AS:
The smallest detectable concentration of analyte greater than the Detection Limit (DL)
where the accuracy (precision & bias) achieves the objectives of the intended purpose.
