INSTRUCTIONS
Complete Part F of the questionnaire for your plant. As you are completing the
electronic form, note the following: When you enter your plant name and plant ID on the
Part F TOC tab, all name and ID fields throughout Part F will automatically populate.
Refer to the overall questionnaire instructions, the glossary, and the acronym list for
assistance with completing Part F.
Please provide all free response answers in the highlighted yellow areas. Throughout
Part F, you may need to make copies of certain sections/questions. Instructions are
provided throughout Part F regarding making copies. Note that pond/impoundment unit,
landfill, leachate treatment system, and leachate treatment unit names or IDs must be
populated on the copied tab or section, located in the upper right corner under "Plant ID"
and "Plant Name", in order to correlate the requested information.
Throughout Part F Section 4, information is requested on leachate treatment units and
systems that are planned, under construction/installation, or planned to begin
construction/installation by December 31, 2020. Provide design information, or best
engineering estimates as necessary, for these planned systems/units. Additionally, enter
“NA” in the field or checkbox if the information requested is not applicable for planned
systems/units (e.g., a question that requests flow rate data for year 2009).
Use the Part F Comments tab to do the following: provide additional information as
requested in certain questions within Part F; indicate atypical data (e.g., if 2009
information is not representative of normal operations); and note methods used to make
best engineering estimates in the event that exact data are not available.

provide the plant’s name for each leachate treatment system. As an example, if a plant operates a chemical precipitation leachate treatment system that discharges to an ash pond/impoundment system,
the leachate treatment system should be identified in Table F-5 as LTS-1 and the ash pond/impoundment system should have been previously identified in Table D-1. For each planned leachate
treatment system, provide an estimate of the expected average annual flow rate of the effluent from the treatment system.

Include each leachate treatment unit operation. Show all influent and effluent streams from the units and label all influent and effluent streams from the leachate treatment system using the
codes on the "Code Tables" tab provided at the end of this workbook. Effluent streams may include process wastewater and sludges .
If a process operation does not have an EPA-assigned number, use the plant-designated name for the process operation. When sources or destinations are not shown on the diagram (i.e., the
stream is entering from a location not shown on the diagram), describe the source or destination and add the block diagram number, when appropriate, where the stream's previous location can
be seen. Use codes from the "Code Tables" tab provided at the end of this workbook. Note that the codes listed in the "Wastewater Treatment Unit " table on the "Code Tables" tab
should be used for assigning the leachate treatment units.
Indicate where chemical addition occurs (i.e., into or between which leachate treatment units). For constructed wetland treatment cells, indicate and note on the diagram where within or near the
constructed wetland treatment cell the chemical is added (e.g., within the constructed wetland treatment cell near the leachate influent point, within the constructed wetland treatment cell near
the effluent, in the effluent/discharge canal). The chemicals indicated should correspond to the chemicals listed in Table F-9.
Identify the final, general destination of the treated leachate (e.g., treated leachate effluent to POTW or surface waters; solid wastes to on- or off-site destinations). Use codes from the "Code
Tables" tab provided at the end of this workbook, when applicable.
Indicate, as appropriate, where treated leachate is reused or recycled within the plant (e.g., reuse of settling pond/impoundment water as fly ash sluice).
Include the average annual (2009) flow rates for influent and effluent streams from the leachate treatment system on the diagram (in gpm or gpd). For planned leachate treatment systems,
provide the design flow rates for the system. Note that these should be the same flow rates that are entered into Table F-6 in Question F4-3. If the actual number of days of operation for
2009 is not known, the total annual flow may be divided by 365 days and a comment added to the Comments page. If the leachate stream is intermittent, provide amount and frequency;
for example “100 gal, twice/day, 100 dpy” or “1000 gpm, 4 hpd, 365 dpy”.
Include NPDES permit outfall numbers, if applicable.
If you believe that the diagram should be treated as confidential, stamp it "Confidential" or write "Confidential" or "CBI" across the top. If any diagram is not marked "Confidential", it will be
considered nonconfidential under 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B.
Review:
If any of the statements above were not checked, revise the block diagram(s) and ensure all statements have been checked.
