If there is no flow meter on the wastewater discharge and it is not possible to perform a calculation of the flow rate discharged because the pipe/tub is underground, what should be done?

Then the lab needs to estimate the flow rate based on the below formula and mention that in the EDR. Data for the calculation could be obtained by the facility itself.

Flow rate in m³/hr = Total volume of effluent treated (m³/day)/ Total hours of ETP operation (hr/day)
