Treatment Balance and the Effects of Undesirable Solids
66. Proper POTW operation. When a plant is properly maintained these bacteria or bugs eat the
dissolved organics in the water, thus adding BOD, Ammonia, Nitrates, and Phosphorus. For any
wastewater treatment plant to operate properly, the operator has to maintain a skillfully balanced
mixture of microorganisms which contact and digest the inorganics in the wastewater, and bacteria
then grows on this media to treat the wastewater.
A. True B. False

67. The EPA has found that SSOs caused by poor sewer collection system management pose a
substantial health and environmental challenge. The response to this challenge varies considerably
from state to state. Many municipalities have asked for national consistency in the way permits are
considered for wastewater discharges, including SSOs, and in enforcement of the law prohibiting
unpermitted discharges.
A. True B. False

68. Certain compounds and undesirable solids, like grease and grass clippings, can disturb this
delicate balance and necessary process at the wastewater treatment facility. There are compounds
and mixtures that should always be introduced into a sanitary sewer system. These compatible
compounds include but are limited to: cleaning solvents, grease (both household and commercial),
oils (both household and commercial), pesticides, herbicides, antifreeze and other automotive
products.
A. True B. False

69. The EPA has found that SSOs caused by poor sewer collection system management pose a
substantial health and environmental challenge. The response to this challenge varies considerably
from state to state. Many municipalities have asked for national consistency in the way permits are
considered for wastewater discharges, including SSOs, and in enforcement of the law prohibiting
unpermitted discharges.
A. True B. False

70. If an SSO occurs, sanitary sewer facilities will be required to immediately notify the NPDES
permit authority, appropriate health agencies, state authorities, drinking water suppliers, and, if
necessary, the general public in the risk area. This rule will also require an annual report of all
overflows, including minor SSOs such as building backups. Facilities must post locations of
recurrent SSOs and let the public know that the annual report is available to them.
A. True B. False
