(i) The cumulative loading rate for each pollutant shall not exceed the cumulative pollutant loading rate for the pollutant in Table 2 of § 503.13; or
(ii) The concentration of each pollutant in the sewage sludge shall not exceed the concentration for the pollutant in Table 3 of § 503.13.
(3) If bulk sewage sludge is applied to a lawn or a home garden, the concentration of each pollutant in the sewage sludge shall not exceed the concentration for the pollutant in Table 3 of § 503.13.
(i) The concentration of each pollutant in the sewage sludge shall not exceed the concentration for the pollutant in Table 3 of § 503.13; or
(ii) The product of the concentration of each pollutant in the sewage sludge and the annual whole sludge application rate for the sewage sludge shall not cause the annual pollutant loading rate for the pollutant in Table 4 of § 503.13 to be exceeded. The procedure used to determine the annual whole sludge application rate is presented in appendix A of this part.
(b)Pollutant concentrations and loading rates - sewage sludge - (1)Ceiling concentrations.
Table 1 of § 503.13 - Ceiling Concentrations
Ceiling concentration (milligrams per kilogram) 1
(2)Cumulative pollutant loading rates.
Table 2 of § 503.13 - Cumulative Pollutant Loading Rates
(3)Pollutant concentrations.
Table 3 of § 503.13 - Pollutant Concentrations
Monthly average concentration (milligrams per kilogram) 1
(4)Annual pollutant loading rates.
Table 4 of § 503.13 - Annual Pollutant Loading Rates
(c)Domestic septage. The annual application rate for domestic septage applied to agricultural land, forest, or a reclamation site shall not exceed the annual application rate calculated using equation (1).
AAR = Annual application rate in gallons per acre per 365 day period. N = Amount of nitrogen in pounds per acre per 365 day period needed by the crop or vegetation grown on the land.
