A.
These regulations set forth uniform requirements for
direct and indirect contributors into the wastewater collection and
treatment system for the Town of Franklin, which system contributes
to and discharges through the Charles River Pollution Control District
Wastewater Treatment Facility (the "facility"). Under the terms of
the Clean Water Act of 1977 and the general pretreatment regulations
promulgated thereunder at 40 CFR 403, as well as the terms of the
national pollutant discharge elimination system permit issued to the
Charles River Pollution Control District (the "district") by the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (Federal Permit No. MA 0102598)
and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (State
Permit No. M-196), the district must have the authority to implement
and enforce said regulations and permit with respect to all industrial
users located in the Town of Franklin which discharge to the facility.
Accordingly, the Town of Franklin Town Council hereby designates the
district, by and through its District Commission and its Director,
as authorized to implement and enforce the provisions of these regulations
as specified herein with respect to all industrial users and, in certain
instances specified herein, all users, located in the Town of Franklin.
The Town of Franklin Town Council retains the authority to implement
and enforce all of the provisions of these regulations with respect
to all domestic and nondomestic users of the facility.
B.
These regulations revise and restate in their entirety
the sewer regulations adopted by the Town of Franklin Town Council
dated January 16, 1980. These regulations shall apply to all persons
in the Town of Franklin and to persons who are, by contract, agreement
or permit with the Town of Franklin, users of the Town of Franklin's
wastewater collection and treatment system and the Charles River Pollution
Control District Wastewater Treatment Facility.
