The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) seeks comment on a draft Idaho Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (IPDES) permit for the city of Gooding wastewater treatment facility.
The city applied for a wastewater discharge permit for its wastewater treatment facility, located at 1775 S 1800 E in Gooding, Idaho.
The draft permit would authorize the discharge of treated municipal wastewater year-round to the Little Wood River for five years. The permit identifies the pollutants of concern and the required limits for each pollutant or parameter, and monitoring and reporting requirements necessary to ensure compliance with the permit and protect human health and the environment.
The draft permit and fact sheet are available for public review at DEQ’s State Office (1410 N. Hilton Street, Boise, Idaho 83706), DEQ’s Twin Falls Regional Office (650 Addison Avenue W, Suite 110, Twin Falls, Idaho 83301), and on DEQ’s website. A public meeting may be held, if requested in writing, by June 23, 2025.
Written comments on the draft permit and fact sheet will be accepted through July 9, 2025, at 5 p.m. MDT. Comments should address water quality considerations and include supporting materials where available. Comments should also reference the city of Gooding wastewater treatment facility and permit number ID0020028.
