Call
Summary
Ms.
Rosenwinkel
is
a
permit
writer
for
the
New
Jersey
Department
of
Environmental
Protection.
We
discussed
PBST
wastewater
discharges.

Ms.
Rosenwinkel
did
have
data
on
groundwater
remediation;
however,
it
is
not
limited
to
PBSTs
(
also
includes
gasoline
retailers).
She
will
send
the
data
via
an
e­
mail.

The
state
does
have
a
general
stormwater
permit;
however,
the
focus
of
the
permit
is
more
exposure
related.
The
state's
Bureau
of
Nonpoint
Control
may
have
stormwater
data.
She
will
send
a
contact
name
and
number
via
e­
mail.

Sites
do
not
discharge
tank
bottom
water.
One
site
(
BP
Amoco
­
Cateract)
asked
for
tank
bottom
water
discharge
limits;
however
the
site
could
not
meet
the
limits.
Instead,
the
site
sends
their
tank
bottom
water
to
the
utility
authority.
The
site
is
located
in
Middlesex
County.
The
2
permit
and
fact
sheet
are
available
(
NJ000213).
The
permit
will
expire
next
May.
This
site
requested
an
individual
permit
which
is
not
usual
for
PBSTs.
Tank
farms
usually
use
the
general
stormwater
permit.
