Special Report No. 82-01: Supplemental Data Reflective of Available Technological Capability for Separation of Chlorinated Organics from Pulp and Paper Industry Wastewaters

On January 6, 1981, EPA proposed effluent limitations for chloroform, pentachlorophenol and trichlorophenol in pulp and paper mill effluents. Several industry organizations and individual companies raised issues in their comments on the proposed regulations.
