About this file

Exhibit D establishes discharge goals and effluent limitations for the Captain Jack Mill Superfund Site in Colorado, specifying effluent parameters, monitoring requirements, and maximum concentration limits across two seasonal periods. The document defines discharge standards for the low flow season (October through April) and high flow season (May through September), with effluent flow rates of 0.046 million gallons per day and 0.1296 million gallons per day respectively. Monitored parameters include pH, total suspended solids, oil and grease, and various trace metals including arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, manganese, nickel, selenium, silver, zinc, sulfate, sulfide, and thallium. All parameters require either daily, monthly, or semi-annual sampling using grab samples or continuous recorders, with frequency and sample type specified for each pollutant.

The discharge limitations vary seasonally to account for water flow conditions, with notably higher concentration limits during the high flow season for most parameters. For example, cadmium limits increase from 1.5 to 6.6 micrograms per liter (30-day average), and nickel limits increase from 33 to 143 micrograms per liter during high flow periods. The document also mandates whole effluent toxicity testing on a semi-annual basis. These effluent goals and limitations appear to be regulatory requirements established to ensure the operation and maintenance activities at the superfund site remain in compliance with applicable environmental protection standards.
