Massachusetts: Dewatering and remediation coverage depends on the discharge activity
EPA’s DRGP for Massachusetts addresses site remediation, site dewatering, infrastructure dewatering/remediation and material dewatering. Its scope includes certain construction dewatering activities; applicability must be checked against the actual discharge.

What this changes in the bid review
Estimating interpretation: Do not select a generic pump allowance without the discharge basis. A remediation stream, a small construction excavation and material dewatering can require different controls even on the same property.
