Research Impact
This report outlines research that identifies more appropriate methods for developing chronic permit limits and better ways to assess regulatory compliance of discharges that exceed a chronic permit limit. This project generated toxicity data for several common wastewater contaminants and many types of pulsed scenarios to support the development of a kinetic model incorporating the interaction of magnitude, duration, and frequency parameters.
