{"description": {"type": "/type/text", "value": "Seafood processors along the Oregon coast practice a wastewater management plan that is unique within the state. Most of these operations discharge wastewater under a General Permit issued by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) that requires only that they screen the wastewater to remove particles that will not pass through a 40 mesh screen. The General Permit was issued in February of 1992 and was scheduled to expire at the end of December, 1996. It has been extended until a replacement is adopted. Alternatives are currently under consideration by the DEQ. A second issue is the increasing competition for water within the coastal communities that are experiencing a growing tourist industry and a static water supply. Tourism and seafood processing both have their peak water demands during the summer months when fresh water supplies are most limited. Disposal of solid wastes has been simplified for many of the processors along the Lower Columbia River by a Fisheries Enhancement Program which allows processors to grind the solid waste then to discharge it into the stream under appropriate tidal conditions. There is no data which indicates water quality damage from this practice nor is there clear evidence of enhanced fishery productivity."}, "notes": {"type": "/type/text", "value": "Major report.\n\n\"December 1997.\""}, "title": "Managing seafood processing wastewater on the Oregon Coast", "subtitle": "a time of transition", "authors": [{"key": "/authors/OL4932732A"}], "publish_date": "1997", "publishers": ["Oregon Sea Grant"], "series": ["AD-a359 084"], "publish_places": ["[Corvallis, Or"], "contributions": ["Miner, J.
