New PA Wastewater Discharge Standards

By Vorys

The PA Department of Environmental Protection has announced new discharge standards for industrial wastewater high in total dissolved solids (TDS), effective January 2011.  This could have an impact on energy development in the Marcellus Shale, and is being addressed by the Pennsylvania Oil & Gas Association.

DEP plans to undertake a rulemaking to amend the water quality regulations accordingly some time this summer, allowing interested parties an opportunity for public comment.
