An original bill to extend certain authorizations in the Clean Water Act and for other purposes.

Summary

Amends the Clean Water Act (also known as the Federal Water Pollution Control Act) to extend through fiscal year 1982 authorizations of appropriations for: (1) research, investigations, and training; (2) grants for pollution control programs; (3) areawide waste treatment management planning process grants; (4) rural nonpoint source pollution control; (5) clean lakes grants to States; and (6) carrying out all but specified provisions of such Act. Extends by 12 months the period during which sums allotted to States under such Act shall remain available for obligation (making such period the fiscal year for which authorized and the next succeeding 24 months). Authorizes the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to enter into contracts and other agreements with the State of New York to carry out a project to demonstrate methods for selective removal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) contaminating bottom sediments of the Hudson River, treating such sediments as required, burying such sediments in secure landfills, and installing monitoring systems for such landfills. Authorizes the Administrator to make grants for 75 percent of the cost of such Hudson River PCB reclamation project. Requires non-Federal sources to provide the remainder of such costs. Repeals specified limitations and conditions on grants under such Act for the construction of treatment works which provided that: (1) the applicant make provision for receiving payment from industrial users of the treatment works for that portion of the Federal share of the construction cost of such works allocable to industrial wastes treatment; (2) the grantee retain a specified portion of such revenues; and (3) the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency be authorized to exempt certain industrial users from such payments. Repeals provisions for such payments for treatment works by industrial users to the United States in the case of privately owned treatment works. Makes other technical and conforming amendments to such Act. Repeals provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 which provided for a moratorium on such payments for treatment works by industrial users. Provides that a grantee shall retain all revenues: (1) derived from the payment of costs by industrial users of waste treatment service to the extent costs are attributable to the Federal share of eligible project costs provided pursuant to title II of the Clean Water Act; and (2) collected prior to December 27, 1977. Requires that such retained revenues be used for such project. Prohibits, with specified exceptions, grants made under the Clean Water Act after September 30, 1980, for a publicly owned treatment works, other than for facility planning and the preparation of construction plans and specifications, from being used to treat, store, or convey the flow of any industrial user into such treatment works in excess of a flow per day equivalent to 50,000 gallons of sanitary waste.
