Charges and fees for reimbursement of costs for setting up and
operating the VJSA industrial pretreatment program are attached hereto
as Schedule C[1], the same being incorporated herein and which may be amended
by pretreatment ordinance from time to time and, which may include,
but are not limited to, the following:
A.
Fees for wastewater discharge permit applications including the cost
of processing such applications.
B.
Fees for monitoring, inspections and surveillance procedures, including
the cost for the collection and analysis of an industrial user's discharge,
and the review of monitoring reports.
C.
Fees for reviewing and responding to accidental discharges and construction.
D.
Fees for filing appeals.
E.
Other fees the VJSA may deem necessary to carry out the requirements
contained herein. These fees relate solely to the matters covered
by this Part 3 and are separate from all other fees chargeable by
the VJSA and may be imposed regardless of wastewater discharge permit
violations. Such fees may be billed on a monthly basis and may include,
but are not limited to, the following:
(1)
Chemical use fee. Reimbursement to the VJSA for the use of treatment
chemicals at the POTW treatment plant that are not typically needed
as a result of a specific industrial wastewater discharge to the sewer
system causing interference or harm to the POTW treatment plant processes,
which may result in effluent violations of the VJSA NPDES permit.
The treatment chemical use fees are extraordinary costs beyond the
typical operation and maintenance costs levied on all industrial users
of the POTW treatment plant.
(2)
Unusual incident fee. Any industrial user introducing a substance
detrimental to the sewer system, pumping facilities or POTW treatment
plant, which result in abnormal costs for the Borough and/or the VJSA,
shall be charged, and shall pay the actual total costs incurred as
determined by the Borough and/or VJSA. This fee is in addition to
any other penalties and fees imposed under this Part 3.
(3)
Engineering fees. Reimbursement to the VJSA for VJSA engineering
fees relative to the VJSA engineer's involvement in the implementation
and enforcement of the VJSA industrial pretreatment program.
