Section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) requires power plants and manufacturing facilities use the best technology available to minimize adverse environmental impacts. Veritas’ 316(b) experience has grown from commenting during the Phase II rule’s creation to conducting scores of peer-reviewed site-specific social cost and social benefit studies and leading fleet level 316(b) submissions.
