«SNiP 2.04.03-85 Sewerage. Pipelines and Wastewater Treatment Plants» with regard to designing systems for surface runoff disposal and treatment

Summary

An explanation is given of certain provisions of CP 32.13330.2018 «SNiP 2.04.03-85 Sewerage. Pipelines and Wastewater Treatment Plants», put into force on January 28, 2022 by order of the Ministry of Construction of Russia dated December 27, 2021 No. 1023/pr. CP 32.13330.2018 «SNiP 2.04.03-85 Sewerage. Pipelines and Wastewater Treatment Plants» with regard to designing systems for surface runoff disposal and treatment in relation to the classification of surface runoff origin into two types by the territorial-industrial attribute; an updated definition of surface runoff of the 1st and 2nd types is submitted. The provisions of paragraph 7.1.4 of the Code of Practice, not regulated by law, are discussed, concerning the development of standards for permissible discharges for customers of public wastewater disposal systems in communities that do not have treatment facilities for effluent discharge into a water body. It is noted that the problem cannot be resolved within the framework of the current Code of Practice 32.13330.2018. To develop a basis for regulating relations in this situation, amending the provisions of Article 60 of the Water Code of the Russian Federation, which contains a ban on discharging wastewater into water bodies without sanitary treatment and neutralization, is required.
