Agencies and Commissions May 22, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On September 30, 2005, the USIBWC issued a Record of Decision (``ROD'') which selected Alternative 4, Treatment Option C, Discharge Option 1 (Operation of SBIWTP as Advance Primary Facility, Secondary Treatment in Mexico) as the means for achieving CWA compliance at the SBIWTP. Reevaluation of alternatives for achieving compliance was prompted by the inability to timely implement the selected alternative and by changes in financial considerations relevant to the decision of whether to provide secondary treatment in Mexico or in the United States. After reevaluation, the USIBWC has decided to upgrade the SBIWTP to secondary treatment in the United States (Secondary Treatment in the United States, Alternative 5, Option B-2, Activated Sludge with Expanded Capacity) to achieve compliance with the CWA and the NPDES permit. This Revised Record of Decision reflects the results of the revaluation and was prepared in compliance with 40 CFR 1505.2.
