Allowed Values	ICIS-NPDES MAJOR: Facilities classified as major dischargers. Under the Clean Water Act, a major facility is any NPDES facility or activity classified as such by the regional administrator, or in the case of approved state programs, the regional administrator in conjunction with the state director. Major municipal dischargers include all facilities with design flows of greater than one million gallons per day and facilities with EPA/state approved industrial pretreatment programs. Major industrial facilities are determined based on specific ratings criteria developed by EPA/state.; ICIS-NPDES MINOR: Facilities classified as minor dischargers. A Clean Water Act National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System minor discharger of pollutants with a 'pending' permit. Minor/not federally-reportable are facilities for which states are not required to submit data to EPA. EPA is therefore not able to verify the accuracy or comparability of data for these permits, although the Agency tracks their names and locations and may have some data about their inspections and enforcement activity.; ICIS-NPDES NON-MAJOR: Facilities that are not classified as major dischargers. Any Clean Water Act National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System discharger of pollutants into waters of the United States that is not designated as a major is considered a non-major.; ICIS-NPDES UNPERMITTED: Facilities that are discharging pollutants into waters of the United States and regulated under the Clean Water Act National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System but not permitted under ICIS-NPDES.;
