Examples of BOD in a sentence

• In the above example the total adjustment to the monthly service charge would be: (Flow credit of $XXXX + BOD credit of $YYYY – TSS increase of $ZZZZ)/3 = Increased or decreased charge to District, as applicable.

• Those concentrations of BOD and TSS are set forth in Exhibit B and may be modified based on either regulatory requirements or generally accepted industry practices.

• In our last PPA document, we noted that from 1990 to 1999, the seven bleach kraft pulp and paper ▇▇▇▇▇ reduced their total pounds of biological oxygen demand (BOD) released annually by 54% and total pounds of total suspended solids (TSS) by 52%.

• The City will then calculate the total pounds of BOD and of TSS in excess of the levels listed in Exhibit B by each such HSD and convert each weight to ECUs based on the equivalence of high strength wastewater as set forth in Exhibit B.

• While there has historically been, and continues to be, a presumption that the Parties sewage flows are domestic residential flows with approximately equivalent concentrations of BOD and TSS, the Parties shall identify and measure, as necessary, sewer discharges within their internal system with BOD and TSS concentrations that meet the definition of high strength wastewater.
