A light manufacturing facility produces 125,000 gallons per week of sanitary sewage and uncontaminated wash water which are discharged to a municipal sewer system. A small parts rinsing operation flushes about 12 ounces per week of trichloroethylene down the sink. Does the facility have to manage their wastewater as hazardous waste (see 40 CFR 261.3)?
