Transcribed Image Text:3. A 55.0 ML/d wastewater treatment plant
discharges to a river system with a
maximum spring flow of 149.5 m3/min and
a minimum summer flow of 98.2 m3/min
(upstream of the outfall from the plant).
What total allowable BOD (mg/L) could be
discharged by the plant if the BOD in the
river after dilution must not exceed
provincial standards, and there is already 1.1
mg/L of pollution in the river upstream?
