This is just false. They don't have a permit to discharge water.

The permit number is WQ0016342001.

That is not an industrial waster water permit.

"That is for a domestic wastewater permit (toilet water treatment)"

Industrial waste water permits are not less restrictive than domestic waste water. They could not have "filled in the wrong form" because they need a domestic waste water permit as well.

[bryanlarsen]

A permit for an average daily flow of 200,000 gallons.
