Peru: ANA authorization and WWTP effluents

Human legal review pending. DS 003-2010-MINAM concerns domestic or municipal WWTP effluents; RJ 0194-2026-ANA modifies the discharge and reuse authorization regulation approved by RJ 224-2013-ANA. Identifying those documents does not establish a consolidated regulation/TUPA or exclude later changes. No calendar commencement date is inferred, and the procedure is not extended to sewer discharge.

• Distinguish discharge authorization, reuse and sewer discharge.
• Confirm permit, environmental instrument, outfall and date; effluent limits are not receiving-water quality standards.
• Check specific transitional or adaptation arrangements, without inferring wrongdoing from a permit missing in the inventory.
• Verify the consolidated regulation, TUPA and transitional provisions; publication of RJ 0194-2026-ANA is not converted here into a commencement date.
