Summary

EPA has found that the Puerto Rico Aqueduct & Sewer Authority (PRASA) has discharged/bypassed wastewater through a point source into water of the United States. The point source, which is an appurtenance of the Puerto Nuevo Wastewater Treatment Plant, is identified as the Jardines Metropolitanos Condominiums I & II Wastewater Collection System. The wastewater bypasses have resulted due to the lack of appropriate operation and maintenance of the wastewater collection system. As a measure of improving the operation of the wastewater collection system, PRASA must made repairs/rehabilitate the system and must conduct a comprehensive sewer evaluation study, which include an evaluation of the system capacity to handle the incoming wastewater flow.
