NEW SOURCE
A.
Any building, structure, facility, or installation
from which there is (or may be) a discharge of pollutants, the construction
of which commenced after the publication of proposed pretreatment
standards under Section 307(c) of the Act, which will be applicable to such source if such standards
are thereafter promulgated in accordance with that section, provided
that:
(1)
The building, structure, facility, or installation
is constructed at a site at which no other source is located;
(2)
The building, structure, facility, or installation
totally replaces the process or production equipment that causes the
discharge of pollutants at any existing source; or
(3)
The production or wastewater-generating processes
of the building, structure, facility, or installation are substantially
independent of an existing source at the same site. In determining
whether these are substantially independent, factors such as the extent
to which the new facility is integrated with the existing plant and
the extent to which the new facility is engaged in the same general
type of activity as the existing source should be considered.
B.
Construction on a site at which an existing source is located results in a modification rather than a new source if the construction does not create a new building, structure, facility, or installation meeting the criteria of Subsection
A(2) or
(3) above but otherwise alters, replaces, or adds to the existing process or production equipment.
C.
Construction of a new source, as defined under
this definition, has commenced if the owner or operator has:
(1)
Begun, or caused to begin, as part of a continuous

including clearing, excavation, or removal of existing buildings,
structures, or facilities which is necessary for the placement, assembly
or installation of new source facilities or equipment; or
(2)
Entered into a binding contractual obligation
for the purchase of facilities or equipment which is intended to be
used in its operation within a reasonable time. Options to purchase
or contracts which can be terminated or modified without substantial
loss and contracts for feasibility, engineering, and design studies
do not constitute a contractual obligation under this definition.
NONCONTACT COOLING WATER
Water used for cooling which does not come into direct contact
with any raw material, intermediate product, waste product, or finished
product.
PASS-THROUGH
A discharge which exits the POTW into waters of the United
States in quantities or concentrations which, alone or in conjunction
with a discharge or discharges from other sources, is a cause of a
violation of any requirement of the Authority's NPDES permit, including
an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation.
PERSON
Any individual, partnership, copartnership, firm, company,
corporation, association, joint stock company, trust, estate, governmental
entity, or any other legal representatives, agents, or assigns. This
definition includes all federal, state, and local governmental entities.
pH
A measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, expressed
in standard units.
POLLUTANT

sewage, garbage, sewage sludge, munitions, medical wastes, chemical
wastes, biological materials, radioactive materials, heat, wrecked
or discarded equipment, rock, sand, cellar dirt, municipal, agricultural
and industrial wastes, and certain characteristics of wastewater (e.g.,
pH, temperature, TSS, turbidity, color, BOD, COD, toxicity, or odor).
PRETREATMENT
The reduction of the amount of pollutants, the elimination
of pollutants, or the alteration of the nature of pollutant properties
in wastewater prior to, or in lieu of, introducing such pollutants
into the POTW. This reduction or alteration can be obtained by physical,
chemical, or biological processes, by process changes, or by other
means, except by diluting the concentration of the pollutants unless
allowed by an applicable pretreatment standard.
PRETREATMENT REQUIREMENTS
Any substantive or procedural requirement related to pretreatment
imposed on a user, other than a pretreatment standard.
PUBLICLY OWNED TREATMENT WORKS or POTW
A publicly owned treatment works, as defined by Section 212
of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. § 1292),
which is owned by a state, municipality or authority, as defined by
Section 502(4) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The term includes devices and systems used in the storage,
treatment, recycling and reclamation of municipal sewage or industrial
wastes of liquid nature. It also includes all sewers, pipe and other
conveyances that convey wastewater to the POTW plant. The term also
means:
A.
A municipality, as defined in Section 502(4)
of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges to and
discharges from this type of treatment works.
B.
An authority created under the Act of May 2,
1945, P.L. 382, No. 164, known as the "Municipality Authorities Act
of 1945," which has jurisdiction over indirect discharges to and

SEPTIC TANK WASTE
Any sewage from holding tanks, such as vessels, chemical
toilets, campers, trailers, and septic tanks.
SEWAGE
Human excrement and gray water (household showers, dishwashing
operations, etc.).
SIGNIFICANT INDUSTRIAL USER
A.
A user subject to categorical pretreatment standards;
or
B.
A user that:
(1)
Discharges an average of 25,000 gpd or more
of process wastewater to the POTW (excluding sanitary, noncontact
cooling, and boiler blowdown wastewater);
(2)
Contributes a process waste stream which makes
up 5% or more of the average dry weather hydraulic or organic capacity
of the POTW treatment plant; or
(3)
Is designated as such by the Authority on the
basis that it has a reasonable potential for adversely affecting the
POTWs operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement.
C.
Upon a finding that a user meeting the criteria in Subsection
B has no reasonable potential for adversely affecting the POTWs operation or for violating any pretreatment standard or requirement, the Authority may, at any time, on its own initiative or in response to a petition received from a user, and in accordance with procedures in 40 CFR 403.8(f)(6), determine that such user should not be considered a significant industrial user.
SLUG LOAD or SLUG
Any discharge of a nonroutine, episodic nature, including
but not limited to an accidental spill or noncustomary batch discharge
which has reasonable potential to cause interference or pass-through
or in any other way violate the POTWs regulations, local limits, or
permit conditions.
STORMWATER
Any flow occurring during or following any form of natural
precipitation and resulting from such precipitation, including snowmelt.
SUSPENDED SOLIDS
The total suspended matter that floats on the surface of,
or is suspended in, water, wastewater, or other liquid and which is
removable by laboratory filtering.
USER
A source of indirect discharge.
WASTEWATER
Liquid and water-carried industrial wastes and sewage from
residential dwellings, commercial buildings, industrial and manufacturing
facilities, and institutions, whether treated or untreated, which
are contributed to the POTW.
The categorical pretreatment standards found at 40 CFR Chapter
I, Subchapter N, Parts 405 through 471, are hereby incorporated by
reference as if fully set forth herein.
A. Where a categorical pretreatment standard is expressed
only in terms of either the mass or the concentration of a pollutant
in wastewater, the Manager may impose equivalent concentration or
mass limits in accordance with 40 CFR 403.6(c).
B. When wastewater subject to a categorical pretreatment
standard is mixed with wastewater not regulated by the same standard,
the Manager shall impose an alternate limit using the combined waste
stream formula in 40 CFR 403.6(e).
C. A user may obtain a variance from a categorical pretreatment
standard if the user can prove, pursuant to the procedural and substantive
provisions in 40 CFR 403.13, that factors relating to its discharge
are fundamentally different from the factors considered by the EPA
when developing the categorical pretreatment standard.
D. A user may obtain a net gross adjustment to a categorical
standard in accordance with 40 CFR 403.15.
The Authority reserves the right to establish, by ordinance
or in wastewater discharge permits, more stringent standards or requirements
on discharges to the POTW.
No user shall ever increase the use of process water or in any
way attempt to dilute a discharge as a partial or complete substitute
for adequate treatment to achieve compliance with a discharge limitation
unless expressly authorized by an applicable pretreatment standard
or requirement. The Manager may impose mass limitations on users who
are using dilution to meet applicable pretreatment standards or requirements
or in other cases when the imposition of mass limitations is appropriate.
Users shall provide wastewater treatment as necessary to comply with this article and shall achieve compliance with all categorical pretreatment standards, local limits, and the prohibitions set out in §
187-52 of this article within the time limitations specified by the EPA, the state, or the Manager, whichever is more stringent. Any facilities necessary for compliance shall be provided, operated, and maintained at the user's expense. Detailed plans describing such facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the Manager for review and shall be acceptable to the Manager before such facilities are constructed. The review of such plans and operating procedures shall in no way relieve the user from the responsibility of modifying such facilities as necessary to produce a discharge acceptable to the Authority under the provisions of this article.
When requested by the Manager, a user must submit information
on the nature and characteristics of its wastewater within 30 days
of the request. The Manager is authorized to prepare a form for this
purpose and may periodically require users to update this information.
All significant industrial users presently holding valid wastewater discharge permits issued by the Authority shall be permitted to continue to discharge wastewater into the POTW in accord with the existing permit requirements for up to 150 days. However, all such users shall, within 30 days of the effective date of this article, apply for reissuance of their current permit by submitting an application in accord with §
187-65A of this article. Said application shall be approved or denied by the Authority within 90 days of said application date; provided, however, that should the Manager fail to take any action during said ninety-day period, the user shall be permitted to discharge wastewater in accord with existing permit requirements. The terms and conditions of any existing permit are subject to modification at the time of reissuance as long as the user is informed of any proposed changes in permit requirements at least 30 days prior to the effective date of the change. Any changes or new conditions may include a reasonable time scheduled for compliance.
Any user required to obtain a wastewater discharge permit who proposes to begin or recommence discharging into the POTW must obtain such permit prior to the continuance or recommencing of such discharge. An application for such wastewater discharge permit, in accordance with §
187-65A of this article, must be filed at least 90 days prior to the date upon which any discharge will begin or recommence.
A wastewater discharge permit shall be issued for specified
time period, not to exceed five years from the effective date of the
permit. A wastewater discharge permit may be issued for a period less
than five years, at the discretion of the Manager. Each wastewater
discharge permit will indicate a specific date upon which it will
expire.
A wastewater discharge permit shall include such conditions
as are deemed reasonably necessary by the Manager to prevent pass-through
or interference, protect the quality of the water body receiving the
treatment plant's effluent, protect worker health and safety, facilitate
sludge management and disposal, and protect against damage to the
POTW.
A. Wastewater discharge permits must contain:
(1) A statement that indicates wastewater discharge permit
duration, which in no event shall exceed five years;
(2) A statement that the wastewater discharge permit is nontransferable without prior notification to the Manager, in accordance with §
187-70 of this article, and provision for furnishing the new owner or operator with a copy of the existing wastewater discharge permit;
(3) Effluent limits, including best management practices,
based on applicable pretreatment standards;
(4) Self-monitoring, sampling, reporting, notification,
and recordkeeping requirements. These requirements shall include an
identification of pollutants to be monitored, sampling location, sampling
frequency, and sample type based on federal, state, and local law;
(5) A statement of applicable civil and criminal penalties
for violation of pretreatment standards and requirements and any applicable
compliance schedule. Such schedule may not extend the time for compliance
beyond that required by applicable federal, state, or local law; and
(6) Requirements to control slug discharge, if determined
by the Manager to be necessary.
B. Wastewater discharge permits may contain, but need
not be limited to, the following conditions:
(1) Limits on the average and/or maximum rate of discharge,
time of discharge, and/or requirements for flow regulation and equalization;
(2) Requirements for the installation of pretreatment
technology, pollution control, or construction of appropriate containment
devices designed to reduce, eliminate, or prevent the introduction
of pollutants into the treatment works;
(3) Requirements for the development and implementation
of spill control plans or other special conditions, including management
practices necessary to adequately prevent accidental, unanticipated,
or nonroutine discharges;
(4) Development and implementation of waste minimization
plans to reduce the amount of pollutants discharged to the POTW;
(5) The unit charge or schedule of user charges and fees
for the management of the wastewater discharged to the POTW;
(6) Requirements for installation and maintenance of inspection
and sampling facilities and equipment;
(7) A statement that compliance with the wastewater discharge
permit does not relieve the permittee of responsibility for compliance
with all applicable federal and state pretreatment standards, including
those which become effective during the term of the wastewater discharge
permit; and
(8) Other conditions as deemed appropriate by the Manager
to ensure compliance with this article and state and federal laws,
rules and regulations.
The Manager shall provide public notice of the issuance of a
wastewater discharge permit. Any significant industrial user aggrieved
by the issuance of its wastewater discharge permit may seek judicial
review of any term or condition by filing a complaint with the Court
of Common Pleas of Washington County within 30 days, in accordance
with the provisions and procedures of the Local Agency Law, 2 Pa.C.S.A.
§§ 551 through 555 and 751 through 754.
The Manager may modify a wastewater discharge permit for good
cause, including, but not limited to, the following reasons:
A. To incorporate any new or revised federal, state,
or local pretreatment standards or requirements;
B. To address significant alterations or additions to
the user's operation, processes, or wastewater volume or character
since the time of wastewater discharge permit issuance;
C. A change in the POTW that requires either a temporary
or permanent reduction or elimination of the authorized discharge;
D. Information indicating that the permitted discharge
poses a threat to the Authority's POTW, Authority personnel, or the
receiving waters;
E. Violation of any terms or conditions of the wastewater
discharge permit;
F. Misrepresentations or failure to fully disclose all
relevant facts in the wastewater discharge permit application or in
any required reporting;
G. Revision of or a grant of variance from categorical
pretreatment standards pursuant to 40 CFR 403.13;
H. To correct typographical or other errors in the wastewater
discharge permit; or
I. To reflect a transfer of the facility ownership or operation to a new owner or operator. However, modification for this purpose may not be allowed unless the permit is transferable as provided in §
187-70.
Information and data on a user obtained from
reports, surveys, wastewater discharge permit applications, wastewater
discharge permits and monitoring programs and from the Manager's inspection
and sampling activities shall be available to the public, without
restriction, unless the user specifically requests and is able to
demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Manager, that the release
of such information would divulge information, processes, or methods
of production entitled to protection as trade secrets under applicable
state law. Any such request must be asserted at the time of submission
of the information or data. When requested and demonstrated by the
user furnishing a report that such information should be held confidential,
the portions of a report which might disclose trade secrets or secret
processes shall not be made available for inspection by the public,
but shall be made available immediately upon request to governmental
agencies for uses related to a NPDES program or pretreatment program
and in enforcement proceedings involving the person furnishing the
report. Wastewater constituents and characteristics and other effluent
data, as defined by 40 CFR 2.302, will not be recognized as confidential
information and will be available to the public without restriction.
The Manager shall publish annually, in the largest
daily newspaper published in the municipality where the POTW is located,
a list of the users which, during the previous 12 months, were in
significant noncompliance with applicable pretreatment standards and
requirements and shall summarize any enforcement actions taken against
such users. The term "significant noncompliance" shall mean:
A. Chronic violations of wastewater discharge limits,
defined here as those in which 66% or more of wastewater measurements
taken during a six-month period exceeded the daily maximum limit or
average limit for the same pollutant parameter by any amount, including
instantaneous limits;
B. Technical review criteria (TRC) violations, defined
here as those in which 33% or more of wastewater measurements taken
for each pollutant parameter during a six-month period equals or exceeds
the product of the instantaneous maximum limit, daily maximum limit
or the average limit multiplied by the applicable criteria (1.4 for
BOD, TSS, fats, oils and grease and 1.2 for all other pollutants,
except pH);
C. Any other discharge violation that the Manager believes
has caused, alone or in combination with other discharges, interference
or pass-through, including endangering the health of POTW personnel
or the general public;
D. Any discharge of pollutants that has caused imminent
endangerment to the public or to the environment or has resulted in
the Manager's exercise of its emergency authority to halt or prevent
such a discharge;
E. Failure to meet, within 90 days of the scheduled date,
a compliance schedule milestone contained in a wastewater discharge
permit or enforcement order for starting construction, completing
construction, or attaining final compliance;
F. Failure to provide, within 30 days after the due date,
any required reports, including baseline monitoring reports, reports
on compliance with categorical pretreatment standard deadlines, periodic
self-monitoring reports, and reports on compliance with compliance
schedules;
G. Failure to accurately report noncompliance; or
H. Any other violation(s) that the Manager determines
will adversely affect the operation or implementation of the local
pretreatment program.
When the Manager finds that a user has violated, or continues
to violate, any provision of this article, a wastewater discharge
permit or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard
or requirement, the Manager shall serve upon that user a written notice
of violation. Within 15 days of the receipt of this notice, an explanation
of the violation and a plan for the satisfactory correction and prevention
thereof, to include specific required actions, shall be submitted
by the user to the Manager. Submission of this plan in no way relieves
the user of liability for any violations occurring before or after
receipt of the notice of violation. Nothing in this section shall
limit the authority of the Manager to take any action, including emergency
actions or any other enforcement action, without first issuing a notice
of violation.
The Manager may enter into consent orders, assurances of voluntary compliance, or other similar documents establishing an agreement with any user responsible for noncompliance. Such documents will include specific action to be taken by the user to correct the noncompliance within a time period specified by the document. Such documents shall have the same force and effect as the administrative orders issued pursuant to §§
187-79 and
187-80 of this article and shall be judicially enforceable.
When the Manager finds that a user has violated, or continues
to violate, any provision of this article, a wastewater discharge
permit or order issued hereunder or any other pretreatment standard
or requirement, the Manager may issue an order to the user responsible
for the discharge directing that the user come into compliance within
a specified time. If the user does not come into compliance within
the time provided, sewer service may be discontinued unless adequate
treatment facilities, devices, or other related appurtenances are
installed and properly operated. Compliance orders also may contain
other requirements to address the noncompliance, including additional
self-monitoring and management practices designed to minimize the
amount of pollutants discharged to the sewer. A compliance order may
not extend the deadline for compliance established for a pretreatment
standard or requirement, nor does a compliance order relieve the user
of liability for any violation, including any continuing violation.
Issuance of a compliance order shall not be a bar against, or prerequisite
for, taking any other action against the user.
The remedies provided for in this article are not exclusive.
The Manager may take any, all, or any combination of these actions
against a noncompliant user. Enforcement of pretreatment violations
will generally be in accordance with the Authority's enforcement response
plan. However, the Authority may take other action against any user
when the circumstances warrant. Further, the Manager is empowered
to take more than one enforcement action against any noncompliant
user.
The Manager may decline to issue or reissue a wastewater discharge
permit to any user who has failed to comply with any provision of
this article, a previous wastewater discharge permit or order issued
hereunder or any other pretreatment standard or requirement unless
such user first files a satisfactory bond, payable to the Authority,
in a sum not to exceed a value determined by the Manager to be necessary
to achieve consistent compliance.
The Manager may decline to issue or reissue a wastewater discharge
permit to any user who has failed to comply with any provision of
this article, a previous wastewater discharge permit or order issued
hereunder or any other pretreatment standard or requirement unless
the user first submits proof that it has obtained financial assurances
sufficient to restore or repair damage to the POTW caused by its discharge.
A violation of any provision of this article, a wastewater discharge
permit or order issued hereunder or any other pretreatment standard
or requirement is hereby declared a public nuisance and shall be corrected
or abated as directed by the Manager. Any person(s) creating a public
nuisance shall be subject to the provisions of the Township Code governing
such nuisances, including reimbursing the Township for any costs incurred
in removing, abating, or remedying said nuisance.
Users which have not achieved compliance with applicable pretreatment
standards and requirements are not eligible to receive a contractual
award for the sale of goods or services to the Township or the Authority.
