For example, for a discharge with an effluent limitation of 0.5 mg/L, and <br /> an a alytical result of 1.2 mg/L, the multiplier is 2. ((1.2 = 0.5) = 2.4, which <br /> roun ed to next lower whole number is 2.] <br /> 4. For 'olations of effluent limitations where the analytical result is less than or equal to 1.2 <br /> <br /> ~ time the permitted effluent limitation, or is less than 0.2 pH units above or below a per- <br /> mitte effluent pH range, the City will not assess an administrative penalty for that viola- <br /> tion. The violation will, however, be recorded and treated as a permit violation for all <br /> other purposes, including the calculation of Significant Noncompliance. <br /> 5. For y series of violations of effluent limitations which meet the definition of Sig- <br /> nific t Noncompliance, the enforcement response will be the issuance of an Ad- <br /> <br /> e mini tive Compliance Order. The penalty assessed will be as listed above, according <br /> <br /> I to th number of months with violations, or as specified in the Order. <br /> 6. Penal ies listed for effluent violations are per pollutant per day, and apply to results ob- <br /> taine from City or industrial user monitoring. The City may conduct monitoring as <br /> often necessary to determine compliance. For the purposes of assessing an <br /> admi istrative civil penalty for a violation of effluent limitations, general discharge <br /> prohi itions, or specific restricted substance limitations, the term "day" shall have one of <br /> the f lowing meanings: <br /> a. If the violation is determined from data obtained from a grab sample, or a series of <br /> grab samples, day means calendar day. <br /> b. If the violation is determined from data obtained from an automatic pH recording <br /> instrument, day means calendar day. <br /> c. If the violation is determined from data obtained from a composite sample <br /> collected by an automatic sampling device, day means the 24-hour period <br /> beginning at the time sampling is initiated. <br /> 7. A vio ation of a monthly average, weekly average, or 4-day average effluent limitation <br /> will b considered as one violation for the purpose of calculating the administrative <br /> <br /> ! penal , or other enforcement response. <br /> <br /> i <br /> 8. Pena ies listed above (except penalties for Mobile Waste Haulers) will be subject to <br /> a flo -based multiplier according to the following: <br /> Administrati e Rule R-6.463 Page 11 Appendix A _ <br /> <br />
