  • Excess discharge charges

Site location

Already know the class (clean, Ga, Na, special)? Choose it directly
  • Clean, Ga and Na areas are set by the site address. The notice uses old district names.
  • Special area boundaries (public wastewater treatment zones, mostly industrial complexes) are not in the designation notice, so check with the local government.
  • The surest way is to ask the city or county environment office that handles your discharge facility permit or report.
