The systems are NFPA 16 foam-water deluge protecting an open process structure.
A question was raised with regard to the environmental permit and various system discharges to the storm sewer system. The term used was "fire testing water". Craig L.

We usually have a diverter valve that sends the discharge to a tank that we have sucked out. I imagine you are well aware of that system and it sounds like they don't have this setup. Is this Hi ex foam from generators, AFFF with cannons or grate nozzles?

Basically it had to be contained and removed from the site? Craig L.
