Unless expressly authorized to do so by an applicable pretreatment standard or requirement and subject to the prior approval of the POTW Manager, no user shall ever increase the use of process water, mix separate waste streams, or in any other way attempt to dilute a discharge as a partial or complete substitute for adequate treatment to achieve compliance with a federal, state, or local standard, requirement, or limitation. The POTW may impose mass limitations on non-domestic users that are using dilution to meet applicable pretreatment standards or requirements and in other cases where the imposition of mass limitations is appropriate. No user intending to use dilution as a substitute for treatment shall do so without the prior approval of the POTW Manager consistent with the requirements of this section.
