Control of ozone treatment process to reduce
production of bromate
|
|

(b)
TTHM and HAA5.
(1) Section
11-20-45.1 RAA compliance.
(A) Compliance dates. Subpart
H systems serving 10,000 or more persons must comply with this paragraph
beginning January 1, 2002. Subpart H systems serving fewer than 10,000 persons
and systems using only ground water not under the direct influence of surface
water must comply with this paragraph beginning January 1, 2004. All systems
must comply with these MCLs until the date specified in section
11-20-45.3(a)(3).

(B)
The Administrator, pursuant to section 1412 of the Act, hereby identifies the
following as the best technology, treatment techniques, or other means
available for achieving compliance with the maximum contaminant levels for TTHM
and HAA5 identified in this paragraph: Enhanced coagulation or enhanced
softening or GAC10 with chlorine as the primary and residual disinfectant.
(2) Stage 2
Disinfection Byproduct LRAA compliance.
(A)
Compliance dates. The MCLs for TTHM and HAA5 must be complied with as a
locational running annual average at each monitoring location beginning the
date specified in section

(B)
The Administrator, pursuant to section 1412 of the Act, hereby identifies the
following as the best technology, treatment techniques, or other means
available for achieving compliance with the maximum contaminant levels for TTHM
and HAA5 identified in this paragraph for all systems that disinfect their
source water: Enhanced coagulation or enhanced softening, plus GAC10; or
nanofiltration with a molecular weight cutoff <=1000 Daltons; or
GAC20.
(C) The Administrator,
pursuant to section 1412 of the Act, hereby identifies the following as the
best technology, treatment techniques, or other means available for achieving
compliance with the maximum contaminant levels for TTHM and HAA5 identified in
this paragraph for consecutive systems and applies only to the disinfected
water that consecutive systems buy or otherwise receive: Systems serving
<=10,000: Improved distribution system and storage tank management to reduce
residence time plus the use of chloramines for disinfectant residual
maintenance. Systems serving < 10,000: Improved distribution system and
storage tank management to reduce residence time.
