Phragmites Reed Bed General Permit
This general permit authorizes the Phragmites reed bed system
of sludge management which combines the action of conventional
drying beds with the effects of aquatic plants upon waterbearing
substrates. Sewage sludge from the treatment of sanitary wastewater
is discharged to basins in which the reed grass Phragmites,
or similar species, is cultivated to facilitate drying and treatment.
The reed grass species has the ability to absorb water and convey
oxygen to the sludge creating a favorable environment for further
biological breakdown. Instructions for applying for a request
for authorization to operate under this general permit are found
in the Fact Sheet and in Part II (specifically, Condition B.3.b)
of this master general permit.
