Industrial Pretreatment Program Support
Local Limits Development for South Bend, IN
CWA Consulting Services, LLC.
February 28, 2017
A. Background
The City of South Bend, Indiana (City) owns a Publicly -Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
for providing wastewater treatment to industrial, commercial, government and residential
users. The City desires to complete a local limits evaluation and development of Local
Limits in accordance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) 2004 Local
Limits Development Guidance document, as required by 40 CFR Section 403.5(c), 40 CFR
122.440)(2)(ii) and the City's National (Indiana) Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permit. The State of Indiana is the permit issuing authority for the NPDES
permit. EPA is the Approval Authority for implementation and enforcement of 40 CFR
Part 403. However, the State has established pretreatment program regulations (327 IAC
Article 5) and requires the City to submit modifications to the State and EPA for approval
per 40 CFR Section 403.18.
B. Publicly Owned Treatment Works
The City holds an NPDES permit for and operates the following Publicly -Owned
Treatment Works (POTW) as follows:

Plant
The City's POTW is a 48 mgd (average design flow) activated sludge treatment plant with
nitrification and biological phosphorus removal. The treatment plant uses
chlorination/dechlorination and does land application of sludge. The permit identifies 35
Combined Sewer Overflow locations that occur during wet weather events. This proposal
does not include any other wastewater treatment plants covered by NPDES permits or
groundwater permits.
C. The Local Limits Project
General Process
a. Establish a firm project schedule and tasks. See Section D. The City
projects that the project will commence on or about March 29, 2017.
The City requests that a final draft of the Local Limits Report be
provided by June 2, 2017. This date is conditioned on the
presumption that all data is currently available or able to be
generated and provided to CWACS at a reasonable date prior to
June 2, 2017.
b. CWACS will provide a local limits data checklist within one day of
receiving a written notice to proceed and a copy of a signed purchase
order or similar funding mechanism.
C. City provides data/information as specified on the local limits
checklist (especially for POTW influent, effluent,
domestic+commercial, sludge data and hauled waste data, if
applicable).
d. CWACS will compile all data, review data quality for metals and
priority pollutants, identify data needs and develop an initial
Pollutants of Concern (POCs) list. CWACS will review lab reports
and data received in spreadsheets or other formats as specified in
the data checklist to identify any additional specific data needs for
POCs.
e. City to provide additional data, if needed.
f. CWACS will develop a final Pollutants of Concern (POC) list and
calculate a Maximum Allowable Headworks Loading (MARL) and
Maximum Allowable Industrial Loading (MAIL) for each POC and
provide the data and assumptions to the City. CWACS will identify
any areas of concern. This step requires providing all
data/information from the local limits checklist to be provided.
CWACS calculates local limits consistent with 2004 EPA guidance.
The EPA Region 5 spreadsheet is only partially consistent with the
2004 Local Limits guidance.
g. CWACS will provide briefing to City staff and management on the
draft local limits development and discuss the items in the local
limits process that are at the discretion of the City. This step can be
done via telephone or on -site. Travel costs are specified in Section
F.
h. CWACS will provide pros, cons and recommendations for POTW
specific decisions when setting final local limits as the final local
limits are refined. This includes providing recommendations on the
adoption of concentration -based local limits and/or mass -based
loadings, appropriate safety factors, growth factors and expansion
factors on a pollutant -by -pollutant basis, as applicable.
CWACS will draft legal authority language to reflect updates to
local limits, including removing conflicting language and assisting
in developing any specific prohibitions that are necessary to
implement local limits. The Local Limits Report will include a red-
line of the existing language and a copy of what the final language
that will be adopted by the City.
j. Develop a submittal package and respond to Approval Authority
(EPA) comments and provide public notice (comment period)
support.
D. Project Schedule
The City anticipates the local limits project to begin on or about March 29, 2017, and end
on or about June 2, 2017, covering a period of 68 days. The City may extend this
timeframe if the City believes it is necessary. To have a final draft on June 2, 2017, will
require that all data necessary for the calculation of local limits is available at project
initiation and review of drafts are completed by the City quickly.
Consistent with other local limit submittals to EPA Region 5 and requirements established
in NPDESpermits, CWACS believes that the requirement to submit a re-evaluation to EPA
and the State is specifically met by submitting a f nal draft of the Local Limits Report and
requesting informal review to resolve any comments before beginning a formal City
administrative process (e.g. before processing through the City Council and making a
formal submittal to EPA and the State).
Completing the steps by June 2, 2017 (68 calendar days), will require the following items
to be completed on or before the dates shown. The City may have to modify its
expectations if additional sampling is required, complications are identified or review times
cannot be met (a typical local limits project takes 6-8 months). In either case, the target
timeframe shown below will require that resources at CWACS and the City be dedicated to
this project during the period ofproject initiation to completing Draft I of the Local
Limits. The short timeframe would prohibit more draft local limits reports to be provided.
CWACS recommends timeframe flexibility to allow for more refinement to local limits
drafts.

5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public
contract to certify that the subcontractors do not knowingly employ or contract with an

respect to hire, tenure, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, or any matter directly or
indirectly related to employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin, ancestry,
age, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability that does not affect that
person's ability to perform the work.
In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials,
or any combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts
awarded under public bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are not required by
law, the City, its agencies, boards, or commissions may consider the Contractor's good faith
efforts to obtain participation by those Contractors certified by the State of Indiana as a Minority
Business ("MBE") or as a Women's Business Enterprise ("WBE") as a factor in determining
the lowest, responsible, responsive bidder.

subcontract to an MBE/WBE; however, it may not unlawfully discriminate against said
WBE/MBE. A finding of a discriminatory practice by the City's MBE/WBE Utilization Board
shall prohibit that person or entity from being awarded a City contract for a period of one (1)
year from the date of such determination, and such determination may also be grounds for
terminating the contact for which the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.
7. The undersigned contractor agrees that the following nondiscrimination commitment
shall be made a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South
Bend, Indiana or any of its agencies, boards or commissions.

employment in the performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter
directly or indirectly related to employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender
expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of
this provision may be regarded as material breach of contract.
I, the undersigned bidder or agent as contractor on a public works project, understand my
statutory obligations to the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States
(LC. 5-16-8-1). I hereby certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for this project will
use steel products or foundry products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I
understand I have an affirmative duty to notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not
include the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States. I understand it is
my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a justification to the City, subject to review and
approval, why the cost of United States made steel or foundry products is unreasonable. Prior to
award and upon submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry products made
in the United States, the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination if
the price of United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations
hereunder may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid for
public works are true and correct.
