References

This document cites or incorporates the following separate documents:

  • 2026-02-01EPA DMR — February 2026
    — pinned to version dated 2026-02-01
    Document A is a working document on WWTP operations; Document B is an EPA Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) — separate artifacts where one likely references or incorporates the other as supporting data, not a revision of the same instrument.
  • 2026-02-01SPEDES Monthly Operation Report — Facility 1
    Document A is a working document on WWTP operations dated 2026-02-20; Document B is a monthly operational report from 2020 (6 years earlier), making them separate artifacts in different time periods that may be cited or referenced but are not revisions of the same singular decision.
  • 2026-02-01AG Environmental Lab Reports — February 2026
    Document A is a working document on WWTP operations and Document B is a separate water quality report that A likely references or incorporates as supporting material, not a revision of the same instrument.
  • 2026-02-01NetDMR Submittal Confirmation Email — March 29, 2026
    Document A is a working document on WWTP operations dated February 2026; Document B is a NetDMR submittal confirmation email from March 2026—two separate artifacts in different formats addressing different slots (operations planning vs. regulatory filing confirmation).

Referenced by

These other documents cite or incorporate this one:

  • 2026-03-09Sewer Operations Report — Late January/February 2026
    — pins a specific version of this chain
    Document B (dated 2026-02-20) is a separate operational notice/alert that Document A (dated 2026-03-09) later references and reports on as a past event; they are distinct artifacts in different slots (immediate alert vs. retrospective operations summary).
  • 2026-04-13NYS DEC SPDES Wastewater Facility Report — Plant 2 (March 2026)
    — pins a specific version of this chain
    Document A is a completed monthly operational report for February 2026; Document B appears to be a working document dated before the report period, making them separate artifacts in different slots of the wastewater facility oversight process rather than revisions of the same decision.
  • 2026-04-09Report Noncompliance Event — Village of Red Hook SPDES Permit Violation
    Document A is a formal DEC noncompliance report filed after the event; Document B appears to be an operational record from the event date itself—they document the same incident but occupy different slots (incident reporting vs. operational logging) and are separate artifacts.
  • 2026-04-09Report Noncompliance Event — SPDES Permit Violation
    Document A is a DEC noncompliance report filed on 2026-04-09 regarding a violation event dated 2/26/2026; Document B appears to be a separate operational document from 2026-02-20 (before the violation occurred); they are distinct artifacts in different processes (regulatory reporting vs. operations), not revisions of the same instrument.
  • 2026-04-09Report Noncompliance Event – WWTP Plants 1A & 1B Solids Loss
    Document A is a formal DEC noncompliance report filed about an event; Document B appears to be an operational record from the event date itself—they are separate artifacts documenting the same incident from different angles, not revisions of the same singular decision.
  • 2026-04-13DEC Noncompliance Report Forms
    Document A is a DEC noncompliance report form (external regulatory filing) and Document B is a working operations document; they reference the same incident but occupy different slots (regulatory reporting vs. internal operations record).
  • 2026-04-13EPA Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) — February 2026
    Document A is an EPA-mandated discharge monitoring report (DMR) for February 2026; Document B appears to be a separate working document from WWTP operations dated during that same monitoring period—they are distinct artifacts related by subject matter, not revisions of the same instrument.
