Routine Visual Inspections Checklist Part 2 (Quarterly Sampling)


At least onc e per quar ter, discharge streams not readily visible (if accessible) must be sampled. This will
generally apply to discharge such as bilgewater or graywater, discharged below the water line.
The samples are to be in spected for any signs of vi sible pollutants or constituents of concern, including
discoloration, visible sheens, suspended solids, floating solids, foam, or changes to clarity.
If signs of oil, other pollutants, or other constituents of concern are discovered exceeding the applicable
effluent limit, the steps taken to prevent the con tinued disch arge of these pollutants or constituents of
concern and what corrective actions were taken to remediate the problem(s) must be recorded.

Note: Sampling of readily visible discharges is not required, but is recommended if the insp ector cannot
easily view their discharg e charac teristics (such as cl arity or discoloration, presence of oily sheens,
presence of foams, etc.). All discharges must comply with the effluent limits in Part 2.
