period from E.P.A. and I.D.E.M. earlier this year, regarding the proposed changes. Steve .
Swoveland stated that representatives from Milso were present to make a few comments.
Milso representatives stated that the proposed concentration of copper is to be 0.95 mg/L.
The current level of copper found in tap water from the Richmond Water System is 0.529
mg/L. Before amending the Ordinance, the amount of existing copper in tap water
should be taken into consideration, or removed from the water provided to the customer.
The proposed amendment to add molybdenum as a substance which is to be limited in
discharge into the wastewater treatment system, places an undue burden on local
industries and, specifically; casket manufacturers using solutions containing said
substance to improve the adherence of paint to metal surfaces. It appears that to impose a
Emit of .55 mg/L for a substance that has never been controlled in the past is an
extremely harsh and burdensome limitation. There are are few alternatives for an individual
anufacturer to come into compliance with this limitation. This substance might be
better controlled, or removed from the wastewater tr eatment system by rather than individual manufacturers: Milso's attorney also stated spoke in egards to
how the company has been trying to find a way to meet these restriction levels. Bob
Bever stated that this Chapter was last updated in 1997. Bob stated that this motion is
only a recommendation, and that Common Council gives final approval. Commissioner
