In accordance with Public Law 92-500 (as amended by the Clean Water Act of 1977) all wastewater treatment plants in Iowa must have a permit to discharge wastes into Iowa streams or lakes. The Department f Natural Resources (IDNR) issues National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits to approximately 1,200 municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in Iowa (1). The IPDES permit specifies the type and quantity of pollutants a WWTP may discharge.
