Section 306.102  Systems Reliability

a)         Malfunctions:  All treatment works and associated facilities shall be so constructed and operated as to minimize violations of applicable standards during such contingencies as flooding, adverse weather, power failure, equipment failure, or maintenance, through such measures as multiple units, holding tanks, duplicate power sources, or such other measures as may be appropriate.

b)         Spills:  All reasonable measures, including where appropriate the provision of catchment areas, relief vessels, or entrapment dikes, shall be taken to prevent any spillage of contaminants from causing water pollution.
