7.a. If applying for outfalls under Option 2, are any of the proposed Option 2 outfalls DIRECT DISCHARGES*that
would require the use of assimilative capacity credits for salt and sodium in the Powder River?
Yes No
If “yes”, please complete Table 5.
*DIRECT DISCHARGE means those discharges that are not or are only partially contained within reservoirs. Discharges to
reservoirs that only overtop and spill during storm events are not subject to assimilative capacity requirements. Direct discharges that
can meet Powder River ambient concentrations for TDS and sodium are also not subject to assimilative capacity requirements.
7.b. If applying for outfalls under Option 2, is it possible that INTENTIONAL RESERVOIR RELEASES* will be
requested for any of the reservoirs receiving CBM discharges under this permit?
Yes No
*INTENTIONAL RESERVOIR RELEASE means purposeful and intentional reservoir releases (opening a valve or pumping out
a reservoir) to provide freeboard within a reservoir. Discharges that occur solely in response to storm events are not considered
intentional reservoir releases, and do not require assimilative capacity credits. Intentional reservoir releases are authorized on a
case-by-case basis and require WDEQ approval above and beyond a WYPDES surface discharge permit (authorization
application form available on WDEQ website).
8. If submitting a major modification or permit renewal, please describe all requested permit modifications (i.e. add 2
outfalls, add 23 wells, move outfall 001 500 feet…):
1. Remove outfall 006, associated reservoir, and reservoir monitoring point. __________________

10a. Please provide the maximum anticipated discharge rate, in million gallons per day (MGD), from this facility:
The maximum anticipated discharge rate from this facility is controlled by the consumptive capacity of the
reservoirs which is estimated at 1.69 MGD. The reservoirs will contain all effluent during normal operations
and will only overtop during a storm event of any magnitude.
10b. Does this facility rely on containment in reservoirs (of any type) as part of the water management strategy?
YES NO
10c. If NO is checked above, please proceed to item #11. If YES is checked above, the permittee is required to conduct
an internal evaluation of the ability of the reservoir(s) at this facility to contain discharges. Based on the results of this
evaluation, please describe the ability of the reservoir(s) at this facility to contain effluent and surface run-off from
precipitation events. If there are multiple reservoirs at this facility which have different reservoir containment
capabilities, please describe separately, identifying reservoirs using reservoir name. For example, “Reservoir A will
contain all effluent and will only overtop during a storm event of any magnitude; Reservoir B will contain all effluent plus
surface run-off from up to the 50 year/24 hour storm event, etc…”:
All reservoirs will be operated such that they contain all effluent during normal operations and will only overtop during a
storm event of any magnitude. _____________________________________________________________________________

13. Describe the control measures that will be implemented to achieve water quality standards and effluent limits. If
proposing to utilize a treatment process, provide a description of the treatment process. Water quality is good and will meet water quality standards and effluent limits. The outfalls are constructed of riprap that passively aerates the water to help induce the oxidation and precipitation of dissolved metals prior to reaching the receiving channel/reservoir.
14. For facilities that utilize mechanical treatments systems, other than reservoirs, please provide a schematic line drawing
showing the water flow and water balance through the facility. The water balance must show approximate average flows at
intake and discharge points and between units, including treatment units. If a water balance cannot be determined, a pictorial
description of the nature and amount of any sources of water and any collection and treatment measures may be provided.
N/A. This facility does not utilize mechanical treatment systems.
15. Outfall locations must be established as part of a preliminary field reconnaissance survey using GPS or conventional
survey equipment and documented in Table 1. Please document the type of equipment used, the expected accuracy of your
measurements, and a brief rationale for locating the outfalls at the requested sites below. The outfalls were located using a handheld GPS unit with a stated accuracy of +/- 50 feet. Rationale for determination of outfall locations were suitable sites that limit erosional potential and still meet landowner requests for discharge.
16. Complete the attached Table 1. Provide all the information requested in the table for each proposed discharge point or
monitoring point. If proposing changes (a major modification) to an existing facility, clearly indicate the desired changes on

*”Reservoir reclamation volume” is the volume of backfill and/or topsoil needed to fill reservoir upon reclamation, in cubic yards. This can also be measured in the amount of material that was excavated to
create the reservoir. Please note that reservoir information is not required if reservoir containment is not part of the facility’s water management plan – for instance, information about existing “incidental”
downstream reservoirs is not required.

TABLE 5. Assimilative Capacity Information for Direct Discharges Within Powder River Hydrologic
Basin Only*
* DIRECT DISCHARGES means those discharges that are not or are only partially contained within reservoirs. Discharges to reservoirs that only overtop and spill during storm events are not subject to assimilative capacity requirements. Direct discharges
that can meet Powder River ambient concentrations for TDS and sodium are also not subject to assimilative capacity requirements.
This table ONLY needs to be completed for applications requesting Option 2 direct discharges located within the Powder River
hydrologic basin that cannot meet Powder River ambient concentrations for TDS and sodium for all months of the year.
Assimilative capacity for monthly planned reservoir releases will be evaluated at the time that the permittee applies for the monthly
release authorization; this table does NOT need to be completed for monthly reservoir release situations.
1. List all outfalls that are requested for direct discharge:
2. Please indicate, for both total dissolved solids and dissolved sodium, the pounds per month (“credits”)
the permittee wishes to allocate to this permit (i.e. what portion of the total assimilative capacity
available to the permittee will be issued to this permit for each month?).
Constituent Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
TDS (lb/mo)
Dissolved
Na (lb/mo)
3. Please indicate, for each month of the year, what the expected water quality concentrations for TDS
and dissolved sodium (in mg/l) and the expected flow volumes (in millions of gallons per month), will be
for this facility:
Constituent Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
TDS (mg/l)
Dissolved
Na (mg/l)
Flow,
(MG/month)
4. Please provide a brief description of the source of information used to determine concentrations and
flow volumes listed in item #3 above:
5. Does the applicant intend to treat water at this facility to meet the concentrations provided in item #3
above? □ Yes □ No
6. Please indicate, for the months of August and September when no assimilative capacity is available to
any operator, how the applicant will manage water such that no additional salt loads are contributed
to the Powder River (i.e. contain all discharges in reservoir(s) up to storm event, treat effluent from
direct discharge outfalls to Powder River ambient concentration, cease discharge from these outfalls
for these two months, etc.):
