How often must I sample my discharges and what are the penalties for breaching AG 236-2006?

According to the cited documentsTo be confirmedIndustrial water

Minimum sampling frequency for the generating entity

2 samplings/year, at their own expense

In forceAG

The regulation obliges the generating entity to take at least two samplings a year, at its own cost, with analyzes matching the parameters in its technical study; the exact article still has to be pinned down against the official text (Consortium Legal, cited earlier, does not mention the frequency). Penalties are administrative and financial: the reference cited by Consortium Legal runs from US$10,000 to US$625,000, plus environmental criminal liability of 6 months to 10 years.
