      (b) BAT for achieving compliance with the MCL for the volatile organic compounds listed in subsection (a) is:

    (1) central treatment using packed tower aeration except toluene;

    (2) central treatment using granular activated carbon for each chemical except vinyl chloride and dichloromethane; or

    (3) other means available for achieving compliance with the maximum contaminant levels identified in subsection (a).

      (c) Monitoring frequency and compliance with MCLs for VOCs are determined under section 5.5 of this rule. (Water Pollution Control Division; 327 IAC 8-2-5.4; filed Dec 28, 1990, 5:10 p.m.: 14 IR 1013; filed Aug 24, 1994, 8:15 a.m.: 18 IR 39)
