Came across this via CSHEMA and the Portland Tribune:
Lewis & Clark College officials were surprised to receive a $77,927 penalty from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality for discharging chlorinated wastewater from a swimming pool to a nearby stream for more than four decades.
It pays to know (or costs to not know) if you're discharging to sanitary or stormwater, and doing it the right way...
"...the college has been disposing of wastewater from the swimming pool through its stormwater conveyance system, which discharges to an outfall pipe into a stream to the north of the campus."
