Re:

Wastewater Treatment Plant
NPDES Provisional
Variance Request
Gentlemen:
On behalfof the City of Polo, we are requesting a provisional variance for theirNPDES permit limits
at
the
wastewater
treatment
plant
per
the
application
requirements
stated
in
TITLE
35:
Environmental Protection Agency; Part
180:
Procedures and Criteria for Reviewing Applications for
Provisional Variances;
Subpart B:
Applications
for Provisional
Variances;
Section
180.202 b).
We
have addressed below the 13
items
in Section
180.202 b) on an item by item basis.
1.
The
provisional
variance requested
is
to
waive the
CBOD5,
Suspended
Solids
and
Ammonia
Nitrogen discharge limit and allow the City to discharge settled sewage to the Buffalo
Creek for a
period of 45
days.
The
provisional
variance
is
needed
to
allow
the
City to
replace
the center
column ofthe rotary distributor mechanism in their secondary trickling filter process.
2.
The
provisional variance
is needed
to
allow the City
to
replace the center column
of the rotary
distributor mechanism
in their secondary trickling filter process.
The
center column
allows
the
four (4) distributor
arms to rotate
and discharge the wastewater from the primary clarifier evenly
over the trickling filter media.
Currently the operator has
to manually rotate
the distributor arms
periodically during the day to get a somewhat even distribution over the trickling filter media.
The City of Polo
is
a small rural community with
a population of2,477 located
approximately
13
miles northwest ofDixon, Illinois
in southwest Ogle County.
3.
The
City of Polo
wastewater treatment
plant processes
approximately
0.313
mgd of domestic
sewage
a
dày
for treatment
and
discharge to
the
Buffalo
Creek.
The
City
of Polo
operates a
tertiary treatment
plant,
which
includes
fine
screening,
primary settling,
a
secondary trickling
filter,
final
settling,
a
tertiary
aerated
lagoon,
a
wet
weather flow lagoon,
anaerobic
digestions
and sludge drying beds.

The City has ordered the center column
unit from Walker Process, and a delivery schedule of six
(6) weeks is anticipated.
Also the City
is obtaining a proposal
from a local contractor to
install
the center
column unit when
it arrives on
site.
The
provisional
variance
is needed because the
operator may not meet effluent standards while he manually operates the distributor arms to
try to
maintain
some uniform
flow over
the trickling
filter.
Also
the trickling filter
will
have
to
be
bypassed completely for 2
to
3 days while the center column unit is being replaced.
4.
The
City will
attempt
to
maintain
the
best
treatment
efficiency possible
through
the trickling
filter
during
the
6
week period while
they
wait for
the
new
center
column
unit,
by
manually
rotating
the
distributor
arms
periodically
during
the
day.
The
City
will
have
to
bypass
completion around
the trickling filter
for 2
to
3
days while the contractor removes the
existing
center column and installs the new one.
When the trickling filter is being bypassed, the treatment
process steps shall include fine screening, primary settling, final settling and tertiary lagoon.
The City’s
NPDES permit discharge limits are
10 mg/l
for CBOD5,
12 mg/i for suspended solids
and
1.4 mg/I (April-October) and 2.2 mg/i
(November
-
March) for Ammonia Nitrogen.
5.
There are no materials in the drinking water exceeding the allowable IEPA regulation limits.
6.
The environmental impacts of the variance will be minimal to the
Buffalo Creek, especially if the
City
can
maintain
effluent
quality
near
their
current NPDES
permit
limits
for
CBOD5
and
suspended solids by still utilizing the trickling filter for six (6) weeks until the new center column
arrives
and then
utilizing
all
other treatment
process while the trickling filter
is
being
repaired
and the trickling filter must be completely bypassed.
7.
The City will be utilizing
all the other treatment process during the repair ofthe trickling filter to
maintain the best effluent quality they can achieve.
The City would
have to
construct additional
treatment
facilities
or haul their wastewater to
another treatment plant
with
reserve
capacity
to
handle the City’s wastewater loadings.
8.
The
City has ordered the center
column unit from Walker Process, and a delivery schedule of six
(6) weeks is anticipated.
The City
will
still
utilize the trickling filter in the treatment process by
manually rotating
the
distributor arms
during
the
day.
The
trickling filter
will
not
provide as
effective treatment with this type of operation, but will provide the maximum treatment available.
Also the
City is
obtaining a proposal
from a competent local contractor that is familiar with this
type ofconstruction to
install the center column unit when
it arrives on site.
It is anticipated the
trickling filter
will
have
to
be
bypassed
for 2
to
3
days while the center
column
unit
is
being
replaced.
The
City will
utilize the other treatment process
to
maintain
the maximum treatment
efficiency possible.
