The use of County sewers and sewers tributary thereto shall be strictly limited and restricted to receiving and accepting the sewage, industrial wastes and other wastes generated on or discharged from real property lying within the bounds of the Albany County Sewer District. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Commission may authorize the use of the District facility for collection and treatment of normal sewage from real property outside the bounds of the District but within the County of Albany.
Sewage, industrial wastes and other wastes will be accepted into the County sewerage system only from municipal corporations or local sewer districts, and all points of connection will be approved by the Director. Measuring and gauging stations will be installed for each point of connection unless waived by the Commission. Such stations will be built by the municipality in accordance with Albany County Sewer District design standards. They will be owned and operated by the Albany County Sewer District. No nonmunicipal connections may be made to the District's interceptor sewers. Each municipality, or town district, may be required to report to the District, at the end of each calendar year, a list of water consumers of 25,000 gallons per day or more.
Where the Commission shall determine that a local system contains combined sewers, or large quantities of stormwater are expected in the local sewer system, an overflow device with regulator chamber shall be constructed at the cost of the local municipality or town district, at all points required by the Commission, in accordance with County Sewer District design standards or to a design approved by the Director. Regulator chambers shall be owned, supervised and operated by the District.
All requirements, directives and orders for the mandatory use of the County sewers or sewers tributary thereto for the proper discharge of sewage, industrial wastes and other wastes compatible with these rules and regulations shall be established and given by the local municipality having jurisdiction or the Albany County Department of Health.
A. 
The Director may immediately suspend a user's discharge, after informal notice to the user, whenever such suspension is necessary to stop an actual or threatened discharge which reasonably appears to present or cause an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons. The Director may also immediately suspend a user's discharge, after notice and opportunity to respond, that threatens to interfere with the operation of the POTW, or which presents, or may present, an endangerment to the environment.
(1) 
Any user notified of a suspension of its discharge shall immediately stop or eliminate its contribution. In the event of a user's failure to immediately comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the Director may take such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of the sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW, its receiving stream or endangerment to any individuals. The Director may allow the user to recommence its discharge when the user has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Director that the period of endangerment has passed.
(2) 
A user that is responsible, in whole or in part, for any discharge presenting imminent endangerment shall submit a detailed written statement, describing the causes of the harmful contribution and the measures taken to prevent any future occurrence, to the Director prior to the date of any show-cause or termination hearing under § 233-44 of this chapter.
B. 
Nothing in this section shall be interpreted as requiring a hearing prior to any emergency suspension under this section.
