An "outlying jurisdiction" also includes a state that is approved pursuant to 40 C.F.R. § 403.10(e), that issues permits to industrial user(s) for discharging sewage and/or wastewater to a sewer system located in that state, wherein the sewage and/or wastewater empties into the Memphis sewage system for eventual treatment at the Memphis WWTP(s).
