A. 
No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged any stormwater, swimming pool water, surface water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, uncontaminated cooling water or unpolluted industrial process waters to any sanitary or combined sewer, unless specifically authorized by the Superintendent. All stormwater, surface water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, uncontaminated cooling water or unpolluted industrial process water shall be discharged to storm sewers or to any natural watercourse approved by the Superintendent. All existing connections to a sanitary or combined sewer of any stormwater, swimming pool water, surface water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, uncontaminated cooling water or unpolluted industrial process waters shall be removed from the sewer within 60 days from the service of a written notice by the Superintendent to disconnect from the sewer.
B. 
If the owner of any property receiving a notice to disconnect from the sanitary or combined sewer, pursuant to Subsection A hereof, does not disconnect within 60 days from the receipt of such notice, the Town shall have the right and power and shall cause the same to be removed at the expense of the property owner and shall charge the total expense of such disconnection to the property so affected. The total expense incurred by the Town to perform such work shall be paid by a special assessment upon the real estate so affected, which expense shall be a lien thereon, and which lien shall be superior and have priority to any mortgage, judgment or other lien of any nature affecting said premises. The Town shall also have the power to collect, by a civil action brought in the name of the Town, any expense it may incur for making such removal; but any civil action so brought shall not impair or affect the lien created under this chapter for such expense or be held to constitute a bar to any proceedings for the sale of lands under which said lien exists.
A. 
No person shall discharge, directly or indirectly, in the Town public sewer system or into any private sewer emptying into the Town public sewer system any substances, materials, waters or wastes in such quantities or concentrations which cause or are capable of causing, either alone or by interaction with other substances, interference with the operation or performance of the Town public sewer system or the joint sewage treatment plant or which pass through the joint sewage treatment plant inadequately treated. These general prohibitions and the specific prohibitions of Subsection B of this section apply to all users of the Town public sewer system whether or not the user is subject to any other local, state or federal requirements governing use of the Town public sewer system.
B. 
No person shall discharge the following into the Town public sewer system:
(1) 
Any liquids, solids or gases which, by reason of their nature or quantity, are or may be sufficient, either alone or by interaction with other substances, to create a fire or explosion hazard in or be injurious in any other way to the Town public sewer system or the joint sewage treatment plant. At no time shall two successive readings on an explosion-hazard meter, at the point of discharge into the system (or at any point in the system), be more than 5%, nor shall any single reading be over 10% of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of the meter. Prohibited materials include, but are not limited to, gasoline, kerosene, naphtha, fuel oil, benzene and any other substances which the Superintendent, the Joint Sewage Board, the DEC or EPA has notified the user constitute a fire or explosion hazard to the system.
(2) 
Solid or viscous substances which may cause obstruction to flow in a sewer or other interference with the operation of the treatment plant such as, but not limited to, grease, shredded garbage with particles greater than 1/2 inch in any dimension, animal guts or tissues, paunch manure, bones, hair, hides or fleshings, entrails, lime, stone or marble dust, metal, glass, straw, shavings, grass clippings, rags, spent grains, spent hops, wastepapers, wood, plastics, tar, asphalt residues, residues from refining or processing of fuel or lubricating oil, mud or glass grinding or polishing wastes, snow, ice, any other solid objects, materials, refuse and debris not normally contained in sanitary waste.
(3) 
Any wastewater having a pH less than 6.0 or higher than 10.0, or wastewater having any other corrosive property capable of causing damage or hazard to structures, equipment and/or personnel of the Town's public sewer system or the joint sewer treatment plant.
(4) 
Any wastewater containing toxic pollutants in sufficient quantity, either singly or by interaction with other pollutants, to injure or interfere with any wastewater treatment process, to constitute a hazard to humans or animals, to create a toxic effect in the receiving waters of the treatment plant or to exceed the limitation set forth in a categorical pretreatment standard. A toxic pollutant shall include but not be limited to any pollutant identified pursuant to Section 307(a) of the Federal Act.
(5) 
Any noxious or malodorous liquids, gases or solids which, either singly or by interaction with other wastes, are sufficient to create a public nuisance or hazard to life or are sufficient to prevent entry into the sewers for their maintenance and repair.
(6) 
Any substance which will cause the Town to violate any State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit issued to the Town or to violate the receiving-water quality standards.
(7) 
Any wastewater with objectionable color not removed in the treatment process.
(8) 
Any wastewater having a temperature at the point of introduction into the Town public sewer system in excess of 150° F. and (65.5° C.) or in such quantities that cause the temperature of the wastewater at the joint sewage treatment plant to exceed 104° F. (40° C.).
(9) 
Any pollutants, including oxygen demanding pollutants (BOD, etc.), released at a flow rate and/or a pollutant concentration which will cause interference with the treatment plant.
(10) 
Any wastewater which causes a hazard to human life or creates a public nuisance.
(11) 
Any radioactive wastes.
(12) 
Any holding-tank wastes.
(13) 
Any substance, materials, waters or wastes of such nature or in such quantities or concentrations as are prohibited by the rules and regulations of the Joint Sewage Board.
No person shall discharge substances directly into a manhole or other opening in a public sewer other than through an approved building sewer.
Grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be provided when, in the opinion of the Superintendent, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing grease or oil in excessive amounts, sand or other harmful ingredients, except that such interceptors shall not be required for private residences. All interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the Superintendent and shall be located as to be readily and easily accessible for cleaning and inspection. Grease and oil interceptors shall be constructed of impervious materials capable of withstanding abrupt and extreme changes of temperature. They shall be of substantial construction, watertight and equipped with removable covers, which, when mounted in place, shall be gastight and watertight.
No discharger into the Town sewer system shall augment his use of process water or otherwise intentionally dilute his discharge as a partial or complete substitute for adequate treatment to achieve compliance with this chapter.
