CESSWI - General
Principles questions
and answers(already
passed)
401 - answer Section ___ of the Clean Water Act requires that any
applicant for a federal permit to conduct
any activity, including the construction or operation of a facility that
may result in the discharge of any
pollutant, must obtain certification of those activities from the state
in which the discharge originates.
This is known as the Water Quality Certification for a project.
402 - answer The 1972 amendments to the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act established the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program to
control discharges of pollutants from
point sources, which focused on industrial process wastewater and
municipal sewage, and emphasized
technology-based controls. As process and publicly owned
treatment works (POTW) discharges were
brought increasingly under control, stormwater discharges
containing pollutants became the focus of
greater attention. These regulations are generally referred to as
Section ___, NPDES regulations.
, 404 - answer Section ___ of the Clean Water Act established a permit
program to regulate the discharge of
dredged or fill material into waters of the United States. The

national waters. This permit program
is administered by the Secretary of the Army through the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers.
