Dental Office Point Source Form

EPA's Dental Amalgam Rule

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has implemented technology-based Pretreatment Standards under the Clean Water Act to reduce discharges of mercury from dental offices into municipal sewage treatment plants known as Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs).  The Dental Office Point Source Category requires dental offices to utilize amalgam separators and implement Best Management Practices (BMPs) as recommended by the American Dental Association.
