General Waste Discharge Requirements for Domestic Wastewater Treatment Systems with Flows Greater Than 0.1 Million Gallons Per Day

This contract sets forth waste discharge requirements for domestic wastewater treatment plants in California’s Central Valley, Region 5, that handle daily flows exceeding 100,000 gallons and discharge treated effluent onto land. The requirements are designed to ensure environmental protection and compliance with water quality standards, targeting larger facilities that pose greater potential risks due to their scale of operation. The regulation applies specifically to land-based discharges and imposes obligations related to monitoring, reporting, and operational practices to mitigate contamination of soil and groundwater resources. The order is issued by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Region 5 – Fresno, under the authority of the State of California, and is forecasted to be published on June 19, 2026. Primary contact for inquiries is Alexander Mushegan, Supervising Water Resource Control Engineer, reachable via email or phone. The directive has no solicitation number, is not associated with a set-aside classification or NAICS code, and is not tied to a procurement or bidding process, as it functions as a regulatory requirement rather than a contract for goods or services.
