(3) The provisions of s. NR 279.16(3) apply to discharges of process wastewater pollutants attributable to ballast water by a point source subject to the provisions of this subcategory.
(4) The quantity and quality of pollutants or pollutant properties controlled by this subsection, attributable to once-through cooling water, are excluded from the discharge allowed by sub. (2). Once-through cooling water may be discharged with a total organic carbon concentration not to exceed 5 mg/l.
