  • (a) in respect of a daily period, the amounts determined using the formula

    Qd = F × 2.5 × RPR

and

  • (b) in respect of a month, the amounts determined using the formula

    Qm = F × D × 1.5 × RPR

    where

    D
    is the number of calendar days in the month,
    F
    is equal to a factor of 5 for BOD and 7.5 for suspended solids, expressed in kilograms per tonne of finished product,
    Qd
    is the maximum BOD of the BOD matter that may be deposited during a daily period or the maximum quantity of suspended solids that may be deposited during a daily period, as the case may be, expressed in kilograms,
    Qm
    is the maximum BOD of the BOD matter that may be deposited during a month or the maximum quantity of suspended solids that may be deposited during a month, as the case may be, expressed in kilograms, and
