The combined State Waste Discharge Permit and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (NPDES) provides assurance that fruit packers are protecting nearby lakes, rivers, and groundwater when managing the wastewater coming from their facilities.

The current permit went into effect on Jan. 1, 2022, and expires on Dec. 31, 2026. It underwent a minor modification on Sept. 14, 2022.
