However, should existing installations wish to increase the discharge volume or change the composition of the waste stream above permitted levels as of the date of F-I reclassification, the waste stream shall be distinctly separate from the existing stream and shall meet all provisions applicable to new installations discharging to Class F-I ground water as described in subsections (1) and (2), above.
