FORM 2D—INSTRUCTIONS
General Instructions
Who Must Complete Form 2D?

submit Section 7 of NPDES Application Form 2C; see
requirements at 40 CFR 122.21(g)(7). However, you need not
complete those portions of Section 7 that require tests you have
already performed under the discharge monitoring requirements
of your NPDES permit.

You must complete Form 2D if you answered “Yes” to Item 1.2.3
on Form 1—that is, if you are a new manufacturing, commercial,
mining, or silvicultural facility that has yet to commence
discharge of process wastewater.

Definitions
The legal definitions of all key terms used in these instructions
and Form 2D are in the “Glossary” at the end of the “General
Instructions” in Form 1.

Where to File Your Completed Forms?
Submit your completed application package (Forms 1 and 2D)
to your National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permitting authority. Consult Exhibit 1–1 of Form 1’s
“General Instructions” to identify your NPDES permitting
authority.

Line-by-Line Instructions
EPA Identification Number, Facility Name, and Outfall
Number
Provide your EPA Identification Number from the Facility
Registry Service and facility name at the top of each page of
Form 2D and any attachments. If you do not know your EPA
Identification Number, contact your NPDES permitting authority.
See Exhibit 1–1 of Form 1’s “General Instructions” for contact
information. Additionally, for Tables A through E, provide the
applicable outfall number at the top of each page.

Public Availability of Submitted Information
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will make
information from NPDES permit application forms available to
the public for inspection and copying upon request. You may not
claim any information on Form 2D (or related attachments) as
confidential.

Section 1. Expected Outfall Location
Item 1.1. Identify each of the facility’s outfall structures by
number. For each outfall, specify the latitude and longitude to
the nearest 15 seconds or equivalent decimal degrees (e.g.,
38.893829, -77.029289) and name of the receiving water. The
application form provides reporting space for three outfalls. If
your facility has more than this number, attach additional sheets
as necessary. The location of each outfall (i.e., where the
coordinates are collected) shall be the point where the
discharge is released into a water of the United States. Latitude
and longitude coordinates may be obtained in a variety of ways,
including use of hand held devices (e.g., a GPS enabled
smartphone), internet mapping tools (e.g.,
https://mynasadata.larc.nasa.gov/latitudelongitude-finder/),
geographic information systems (e.g., ArcView), or paper maps
from trusted sources (e.g., U.S. Geological Survey or USGS).
For further guidance, refer to
http://www.epa.gov/geospatial/latitudelongitude-data-standard.

You may make a claim of confidentiality for any information that
you submit to EPA that goes beyond the information required by
Form 2D. Note that NPDES permitting authorities will deny
claims for treating any effluent data (estimated or actual) as
confidential. If you do not assert a claim of confidentiality at the
time you submit your information to the NPDES permitting
authority, EPA may make the information available to the public
without further notice to you. EPA will handle claims of
confidentiality in accordance with its business confidentiality
regulations at Part 2 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR).
Completion of Forms
Print or type in the specified areas only. If you do not have
enough space on the form to answer a question, you may
continue on additional sheets, as necessary, using a format
consistent with the form.
Do not leave any response areas blank unless the form directs
you to skip them. If the form directs you to respond to an item
that does not apply to your facility or activity, enter “NA” for “not
applicable” to show that you considered the item and
determined a response was not necessary for your facility.

Section 2. Expected Discharge Date
Item 2.1. Report the expected date the facility will commence
discharging (month, day, and year).
Section 3. Average Flows and Treatment
Item 3.1. For each outfall, report the operations expected to
contribute wastewater to the effluent and an estimated average
flow from each. Briefly describe the planned wastewater
treatment for each operation or list the applicable treatment
code(s) from Exhibit 2D–1, located at the end of these
instructions. Finally, for each operation, note the ultimate
disposal of any solid or liquid wastes not expected to be
discharged.

The NPDES permitting authority will consider your application
complete when it and any supplementary material are received
and completed according to the authority’s satisfaction. The
NPDES permitting authority will judge the completeness of any
application independently of the status of any other permit
application or permit for the same facility or activity.
Follow-up Requirements
Form 2D requires that you submit estimated data on your
effluent. Note that no later than 24 months after you commence
discharging from the proposed facility, you must complete and

FORM 2D—INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
Section 4. Line Drawing
Item 4.1. Attach a line drawing showing the expected water flow
through your facility, from intake to discharge. Indicate the
sources of intake water (e.g., city, well, stream, other); all
sources of wastewater contributing to the effluent, including
process and production areas, sanitary flows, cooling water, and
stormwater runoff; and labeled treatment units. You may group
similar operations into a single unit.
Construct a water balance on the line drawing by showing
average flows (specify units) between intakes, operations,
treatment units, and outfalls. Show all significant losses of water
to products, the atmosphere, and discharge. You should use
your best estimate. If you cannot determine a water balance for
your activities (such as mining activities), provide a pictorial
description of the nature and amount of any sources of water
and any collection and treatment measures. An example of an
acceptable line drawing is provided in Exhibit 2D–2 at the end of
these instructions.

promulgated ELG has been remanded for reconsideration by a
court and does not apply to your operations, you may answer
“No” to item 6.1 and skip to Section 7.

Item 6.3. Indicate whether the limitations in the applicable ELGs
are expressed in terms of production (or other measure of
operation). An ELG is expressed in terms of production (or
another measure of operation) if the limitation is expressed as
mass of pollutant per operational parameter (e.g., “pounds of
biological oxygen demand per cubic foot of logs from which bark
is removed” or “pounds of total suspended solids per megawatt
hour of electrical energy consumed by smelting furnace”). An
example of an ELG not expressed in terms of a measure of
operation is one that limits the concentration of pollutants. If you
answer “No” to this item, skip to Section 7.
Item 6.4. For each applicable outfall to which an applicable
production-based ELG applies, list the estimated level of
production (projection of actual production level, not design), for
each of the first three years of operation. The estimated
production level must be a long-term average estimate (e.g.,
average production on an annual basis). If production will vary
depending on long-term shifts in operating schedule or capacity,
you may report alternative production estimates, but you must
provide the basis for such alternatives. If known, report
quantities in units of measurements used in the applicable ELG.
If an ELG specifies a method for estimating production, you
must follow that method.

Section 5. Intermittent or Seasonal Flows
Item 5.1. Specify whether any of the expected discharges
described in Sections 1 and 3 will be intermittent or seasonal. If
yes, continue to Item 5.2. If no, skip to Section 6.
Item 5.2. List applicable outfalls that will have intermittent or
seasonal flows. For each, indicate the operations that will
contribute to the flow. For each operation, indicate the average
days per week and average months per year the discharge will
occur, the maximum daily flow rate, the maximum total volume,
and the duration of the discharge in days. The estimated flow
rate and volume should not include stormwater runoff, spillage,
or leaks. A discharge is intermittent if it occurs with interruptions
during the operating hours of the facility. Discharges caused by
routine maintenance shutdowns, process changes, or other
similar activities are not considered to be intermittent. A
discharge is seasonal if it occurs only during certain parts of the
year. The frequency is the average recurrence rate of the
discharge (in days per week and months per year). The duration
is the average value of the time duration during which the
discharge occurs (in days).
The maximum daily flow rate is the highest daily value and
should be reported in million gallons per day (mgd). Maximum
total volume means the total volume of any one discharge within
24 hours and is measured in units such as gallons.

Section 7. Effluent Characteristics and Tables A through E
General Information. Section 7 requires you to report
estimated flow data for the parameters and pollutants listed in
Tables A through E, located at the end of Form 2D. You are not
required to conduct actual sampling and analysis at this time. If,
however, data from such analyses are available, you must
report those data. Note that no later than 24 months after you
begin discharging from the proposed facility, you must complete
and submit quantitative data for the pollutants and parameters in
Tables A through E. However, you need not report results for
tests you have already performed and reported under the
discharge monitoring requirements of your NPDES permit.

Section 6. Production
Item 6.1. Indicate whether any effluent limitation guidelines
(ELGs) promulgated under Section 304 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA) apply to your facility. All ELGs promulgated by EPA
appear in the Federal Register and are published annually in 40
CFR Subchapter N. See also www.epa.gov/eg. An ELG applies
if you have any operations contributing process wastewater in
any subcategory covered by New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS). If you are unsure whether you are covered
by a promulgated ELG, consult your NPDES permitting authority
(see Exhibit 1–1 of Form 1’s “General Instructions”). You must
check “Yes” if an applicable ELG has been promulgated, even if
the ELG is being contested in court. If you believe that a

FORM 2D—INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
Conventional and Non-Conventional Parameters
Item 7.1 and Table A. All applicants are required to complete
Table A for each outfall, including outfalls discharging only
noncontact cooling water or nonprocess water unless a waiver
has been received or requested from the NPDES permitting
authority. For each parameter listed in Table A, indicate whether
a waiver has been requested. If you have requested a
waiver for all pollutants for a given outfall, check the box
indicating this at the top of Table A.

Tables A through D require you to report estimated effluent
data, with some exceptions, as discussed further below. Base
your estimates on available in-house or contractor engineering
reports or any other studies performed on the proposed facility.
Table E requires you to report quantitative data for the pollutants
listed, but only if it is already available.
Several tables require you to provide estimates for pollutants
you believe will be present in your discharge or will be limited
directly by an ELG or indirectly through promulgated limitations
on an indicator pollutant. Base your determination of whether a
pollutant will be present in your discharge on your knowledge of
the proposed facility’s raw materials, maintenance chemicals,
intermediate and final products, byproducts, and any analyses
of any pollutant (you are required to report it).
For those pollutants you believe will be present in the discharge,
provide the maximum daily and average daily concentration and
total mass and the source of the information. Use the following
codes to report your source information:

To request a waiver, submit a written request to the NPDES
permitting authority in advance or with the permit application.
The written request should specify the parameters that should
be waived and for what outfall(s) and why. The NPDES
permitting authority may waive Table A requirements upon a
determination that less stringent reporting requirements are
adequate to support issuance of an NPDES permit. Attach a
copy of any waiver approval notice(s) received, if applicable, to
this application.
Answer Item 7.1 by indicating if you are requesting a waiver for
any of your outfalls. If yes, continue to Item 7.2. Otherwise,
complete Table A by estimating your maximum daily and
average daily discharge. Provide the source(s) of your
information. Also in Table A, indicate whether you believe each
of the parameters will be present in the facility’s intake water.
See “Reporting of Intake Data” above for further information.

You may report some or all of your estimates (or actual data
when available) by attaching separate sheets of paper instead
of completing Tables A through E for each of your outfalls, so
long as the sheets contain all of the required information and are
similar in format to Tables A through E.
Reporting of Intake Data

Item 7.2. Indicate the outfalls for which you have requested a
waiver or check the appropriate box to indicate that you are
requesting a waiver for some or all pollutants at all outfalls.
Item 7.3. Indicate if you have provided estimates or actual data
for all Table A parameters for each of your outfalls for which a
waiver has not been requested and attach the results to your
application package.

If you expect a pollutant to be present solely because of its
presence in your intake water, you must mark “Yes” under the
“Intake Water” column of Tables A through D. If you wish to
obtain credits for pollutants or parameters present in your intake
water, insert a separate sheet with a short statement of why you
believe you are eligible (see 40 CFR 122.45(g)).
Reporting of Effluent Data

Certain Conventional and Non-Conventional Pollutants
Items 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 and Table B. Complete one table for
each outfall, including outfalls discharging only noncontact
cooling water or nonprocess wastewater. Check the box at the
top of Table B if you believe all pollutants listed will be absent in
the discharge. If so, you do not need to complete Table B for the
noted outfall. (You still need to complete Items 7.4 through 7.6.)
Otherwise, for each pollutant listed in Table B, indicate whether
you expect it will be present or absent in the discharge or
whether the pollutant is limited directly by an ELG or indirectly
through promulgated limitations or an indicator pollutant. (For
example, total suspended solids is used as an indicator to
control the discharge of iron and aluminum.) Next, provide an
estimated maximum daily and average daily value, including the
source of the information. If you have quantitative data
available, report it. Also in Table B, indicate whether you believe
the listed pollutants will be present in the facility’s intake water.
See “Reporting of Intake Data” above for further information.
Answer “Yes” to Items 7.4 through 7.6 once you have completed
the above tasks.

Report all estimated pollutant or parameter levels as
concentration and as total mass, with the exception of discharge
flow, temperature, and pH.
Use the following abbreviations in the columns requiring “units”
in Tables A through E.
Concentration
ppm = parts per million

Mass
lbs. = pounds

mg/L = milligrams per liter

ton = tons (English tons)

ppb = parts per billion

mg = milligrams

µg/L = micrograms per liter

g = grams

MPN = most probable
number per 100 milliliters

kg = kilograms
T = tonnes (metric tons)

FORM 2D—INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
Toxic Metals, Total Cyanide, and Total Phenols
Items 7.7 and 7.8 and Table C. Complete one table for each
outfall, including outfalls discharging only noncontact cooling
water or nonprocess wastewater. Check the box at the top of
Table C if you believe all pollutants listed will be absent in the
discharge. If so, you do not need to complete Table C for the
noted outfall (unless you have quantitative data available). You
still need to respond to Items 7.7 and 7.8, however. Otherwise,
indicate whether you believe each pollutant in Table C will be
present or absent in your discharge for each applicable outfall.
For those pollutants you believe will be present, provide an
estimated maximum daily and average daily value and source of
the information. (Provide quantitative data if you have them
available.) Also, in Table C, indicate whether you believe the
pollutant is or will be present in your facility’s intake water. See
“Reporting of Intake Data” above for more information. Answer
“Yes” to Items 7.7 and 7.8 when you have completed the above
tasks.
Organic Toxic Pollutants
(Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry or GC/MS
Fractions)
Item 7.9. Applicants are exempt from the reporting requirements
associated with Table D if they expect to have gross sales of
less than $100,000 per year for the next three years; also
exempt are coal mines with expected average production of less
than 100,000 tons of coal per year. If you believe you meet one
of these criteria, answer “Yes” to Item 7.9, check the small
business box at the top of Table D, and attach projected sales
or production figures. Skip to Item 7.12.
The sales or production figures must be for the facility that will
be the source of the discharge. The data should not be limited
only to production or sales for the process or processes that will
contribute to the discharge, unless those are the only processes
at the facility.
For sales data, where intra-corporate transfers of goods and
services will be involved, the transfer price per unit should
approximate market process for those goods and services as
closely as possible. If necessary, you may index your sales
figures to the second quarter of 1980 to demonstrate your
eligibility for a small business exemption. You may accomplish
this by using the gross national product price deflator (second
quarter of 1980 = 100). This index is available online from the
U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis,
at https://apps.bea.gov/national/pdf/SNTables.pdf.
Items 7.10 and 7.11 and Table D. Complete one table for each
outfall, including outfalls discharging only noncontact cooling
water or nonprocess wastewater. Check the box at the top of
Table D if you believe all pollutants listed will be absent in the
discharge from the outfall. If so, you do not need to complete
Table D for the noted outfall (unless you have quantitative data
available). Otherwise, for each pollutant listed, indicate whether
you believe it will be present or absent in the discharge. For
those you believe will be present, provide an estimated
maximum daily and average daily value and the source of the
information. Also, in Table D, indicate whether you believe the
pollutant is or will be present in your facility’s intake water. See
“Reporting of Intake Data” above for further information. Finally,

answer “Yes” to Items 7.10 and 7.11 when you have completed
the above tasks.
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin (TCDD)
Item 7.12. Answer whether the facility uses or manufactures
one or more of the 2,3,7,8-TCDD congeners listed below or if
you know or have reason to believe that TCDD is or may be
present in effluent from any of your outfalls:
• 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4,5-T) (CAS # 93765).
• 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) propanoic acid (Silvex, 2,4,5-TP)
(CAS # 93-72-1).
• 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) ethyl 2,2-dichloropropionate
(Erbon) (CAS # 136-25-4).

Hexachlorophene (HCP) (CAS # 70-30-4).

Certain Hazardous Substances and Asbestos
Table E. Complete Table E for each outfall. Check the box at
the top of Table E if you believe all pollutants listed will be
absent in the discharge. Otherwise, for each pollutant listed in
Table E, indicate whether you believe it will be present or absent
in the discharge. If you have quantitative estimates available for
any of the pollutants listed, provide the maximum daily and
average daily average value and the source of the information.
Also, in Table E, if you believe the pollutant is or will be present
in your facility’s intake water, state so in the “Reason Pollutant
Believed Present in Discharge” column.
Item 7.13. Indicate whether, for each of your outfalls, you have
indicated whether you know or have reason to believe that any
pollutants listed in Table E are discharged.
Item 7.14. Indicate whether, for each of your outfalls, you have
completed and attached Table E to the application describing
the reasons the applicable pollutants are expected to be
discharged and providing quantitative data if available.
Under 40 CFR 117.12(a)(2), certain discharges of hazardous
substances (listed in Exhibit 2D–3 at the end of these
instructions) may be exempted from the requirements of
Section 311 of the CWA, which establishes reporting
