NPDES & Industrial Wastewater/Sewer Permitting

Pure Effect, Inc. provides turnkey and complete permitting services for the NPDES and Industrial Sewer discharge permits on behalf of the general contractor or facility owner. The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System [NPDES] is a federal program (generally administered by individual states) that controls water discharge pollution. This program regulates point sources that discharge pollutants into U.S. waters. Groundwater, construction groundwater, surface water, and other effluent sources are discharged to storm drain systems under this program.

Pure Effect provides a turnkey and a complete treatment system package that complies with the requirements of the NPDES program as well as requirements for discharge to the Sanitary Sewer.

Many areas allow the discharge of construction groundwater into sewer systems. However, some municipalities/agencies do not allow groundwater discharge into the sewer or control pollutants of concern making it prohibitively expensive to discharge to the specific sewer system.
