ELG Rule Compliance
Data and Information

Background

This webpage includes information about Duke Energy’s compliance with certain requirements under the Clean Water Act and associated “Effluent Limitations Guidelines” adopted by the Environmental Protection Agency. 

Most requirements and limitations for wastewater discharges from Duke Energy facilities are contained in National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits issued by state environmental agencies. Duke Energy is required to demonstrate its eligibility for certain permit-related categories by submitting information to the agencies in the form of notices and certifications. In compliance with 40 C.F.R. 423.19(c), those notices and certifications will be posted on this webpage for review by the public.
