State<br />

Reclaimed Water<br />

Quality and<br />

Treatment<br />

Requirements<br />

• Minimum<br />

chlorine<br />

residual<br />

-1.0 mg/l after<br />

15-minute<br />

contact at peak<br />

hourly flow<br />

• Alternative<br />

methods of<br />

disinfection,<br />

such as UV<br />

and ozone,<br />

may be<br />

approved<br />

• TSS - existing<br />

treatment<br />

requirements<br />

as specified in<br />

the NJPDES<br />

permit for the<br />

discharge<br />

• Total nitrogen<br />

- 10 mg/l but<br />

may be less<br />

stringent if<br />

higher limit is<br />

still protective<br />

of environment<br />

• Secondary<br />

Reclaimed Water<br />

Monitoring<br />

Requirements<br />

• Chlorination<br />

levels should<br />

be continually<br />

evaluated to<br />

ensure the<br />

reclaimed<br />

water will not<br />

adversely<br />

impact<br />

vegetation<br />

• Annual usage<br />

Facility Reliability<br />

Storage<br />

Requirements<br />

design<br />

• If system<br />

storage ponds<br />

are used, they<br />

do not have to<br />

be lined<br />

• Reject storage<br />

ponds shall be<br />

lined or sealed<br />

to prevent<br />

measurable<br />

seepage<br />

• Existing or<br />

proposed<br />

ponds (such as<br />

golf course<br />

ponds) are<br />

appropriate for<br />

storage of<br />

reuse water if<br />

the ability of<br />

the ponds to<br />

function as<br />

stormwater<br />

management<br />

systems is not<br />

impaired<br />

Loading<br />

Rates<br />

site-specific<br />

evaluation<br />

• The<br />

distribution of<br />

reclaimed<br />

water shall not<br />

produce<br />

surface runoff<br />

or ponding<br />

• Land<br />

application<br />

sites shall not<br />

be frozen or<br />

saturated<br />

when applying<br />

reclaimed<br />

water<br />

Distances (1)<br />

provided from<br />

• All other<br />

surface water<br />

be established<br />

on a case-bycase<br />

basis<br />

• 100 feet from<br />

drinking, and<br />

bathing<br />

facilities<br />

Other<br />

permit, not<br />

including the<br />

additional<br />

reclaimed<br />

water for<br />

beneficial<br />

reuse<br />

treatment<br />

requirements<br />

• A chlorine<br />

residual of<br />

0.5 mg/l or<br />

greater is<br />

recommended<br />

to reduce<br />

odors, slime<br />

and bacterial<br />

re-growth<br />

• For a period of<br />

15 days from<br />

the last<br />

application of<br />

reclaimed<br />

water, land<br />

application<br />

areas shall not<br />

be used for the<br />

grazing of<br />

cattle whose<br />

milk is<br />

intended for<br />

human<br />

consumption<br />
