Mid-State Industrial Service, Inc.
Location: 88696 McVay Highway, Eugene
Activity at this Location: Mid-State Industrial Service operates a street sweeping service and washes street sweepers at this location.
Discharges: Mid-State Industrial Service has coverage under the state of Oregon’s statewide general wash water permit (described below), which allows it to discharge wash water in accordance with permit terms. Mid-State’s September, 1993 permit application indicates that wash water flows through a baffled settling basin before discharging via an outfall located at the southeast corner of the site. This application also indicates that less than half a pound of Wonder Wash is used per week, along with less than a quarter pound of C-Trate.
Oregon’s statewide general wash water permit allows permit holders to discharge water resulting from vehicle, equipment, building, and pavement washing provided that they perform required monitoring of discharges, and report the results of this monitoring to the DEQ. Oregon’s statewide general wash water permit includes limits on the concentration of oil & grease, copper, lead, zinc, pH, and total suspended solids in discharges. The full text of Oregon’s statewide general wash water permit can be viewed in a PDF file at the Oregon Department of Envrionmental Quality (DEQ) Web site.
Where Discharges Go: Discharges from this facility flow into the Coast Fork Willamette River at mile 1.0.
Compliance History: Aside from discharges of total suspended solids in excess of permit limits on May 25, 2000 and November 15, 2000, it appears that Mid-State Industrial Service has been in compliance with permit discharge limits between April of 2000 and September of 2010 (the most recent time period for which monitoring data has been checked by OCWAP).
