such treatment works is:
i. A DTW that
directly discharges to surface waters, or onto the land surface (for example,
spray irrigation or overland flow facilities);
ii. A DTW that has a design capacity of

means; or
iii. An industrial
treatment works that requires a NJPDES discharge permit and that handles
process waste water or sanitary sewage.
4. The location of each existing discharge to

management plan area under (a)3 above, and the location of any overflow
discharges of sewage within the wastewater management plan area;
5. The location of each existing pumping
station and major interceptor and trunk sewer, if any, within the wastewater
management plan area;
6. The

wastewater management plan area under (a)3 above, distinguishing the separate
area served by each DTW; and
ii.
Industrial treatment works that is mapped within the wastewater management plan
area under (a)3 above including property other than the property on which the
industrial treatment works is located, distinguishing the separate area served

i.
Individual subsurface sewage disposal systems for individual residences;
or
ii. Other DTW that have a design
capacity of less than 2,000 gallons per day, use either subsurface sewage
disposal systems or other sewage disposal systems that have no direct discharge
to surface water or onto the land surface.
(b) Each wastewater management plan shall

7. Estimate of
existing residential population served by the treatment works within and
outside the wastewater management plan area, disaggregated by municipality and
including any major seasonal fluctuations;
8. Actual flow of wastewater received by the
treatment works, in millions of gallons per day (MGD), expressed as total flow,
as estimated flow arising within and outside the wastewater management plan
area, and as estimated flow, disaggregated by municipality and attributed to
each of the following sources: residential, commercial, industrial, and
infiltration/inflow; and
9.
Existing permitted flow of the DTW.
(c) Each wastewater management plan shall
include the following information, in narrative, outline, or tabular form, for
each existing treatment works mapped outside the wastewater management plan
area under (a)3 above:
1. Name and owner of
the treatment works;
2. Estimate of
existing residential population served by the treatment works within the
wastewater management plan area, disaggregated by municipality and including
any major seasonal fluctuations; and
3. Estimated average flow of wastewater
conveyed to the treatment works from the wastewater management plan area, in
millions of gallons per day, disaggregated by municipality and expressed as
total flow and as estimated flow attributed to each of the following sources:

(d) For a particular treatment
works, the Department may waive the disaggregation of flow by municipality or
