Floatable oil and sand interceptors, including grease traps, shall be provided when, in the opinion of the Superintendent, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing floatable oil in excessive amounts, as specified in §
385-20B(1), or any flammable wastes, sand, or other harmful ingredients, except that such interceptors shall not be required for private living quarters or dwelling units. All interceptors and grease traps 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. In the maintaining of these interceptors and grease traps, the owner shall be responsible for the proper removal and disposal by appropriate means of the captured material and shall maintain records of the dates and means of disposal which are subject to review by the Superintendent. Any removal and hauling of the collected materials not performed by the owner's personnel must be performed by currently licensed waste disposal firms.
Where pretreatment or flow-equalizing facilities are provided
or required for any waters or wastes, they shall be maintained continuously
in satisfactory and effective operation by the owner at his or her
expense.
When required by the Superintendent, the owner of any property
serviced by a building sewer carrying industrial wastes shall install
a suitable structure together with such necessary meters and other
appurtenances in the building sewer to facilitate observation, sampling,
and measurement of the wastes. Such structure, when required, shall
be accessibly and safely located and shall be constructed in accordance
with plans approved by the Superintendent. The structure shall be
installed by the owner at his or her expense and shall be maintained
by him or her so as to be safe and accessible at all times.
The Superintendent may require a user of sewer services to provide
information needed to determine compliance with this chapter. These
requirements may include:
A. Wastewater discharge peak rate and volume over a specified time period.
B. Chemical analysis of wastewaters.
C. Information on raw materials, processes, and products affecting wastewater
volume and quality.
D. Quantity and disposition of specific liquid, sludge, oil, solvent
or other materials important to sewer use control.
E. A plot plan of sewers on the user's property showing sewer and pretreatment
facility location.
F. Details of wastewater pretreatment facilities.
G. Details of systems to prevent and control the loss of materials through
spills to the municipal sewer.
All measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics
of waters and wastes to which reference is made in this chapter shall
be determined in accordance with the latest edition of Standard Methods
for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, published by the American
Public Health Association. Sampling methods, locations, times, durations
and frequencies are to be determined on an individual basis subject
to approval by the Superintendent.
Special agreements and arrangements between the Village and
any persons or agencies may be established when, in the opinion of
the Village, unusual or extraordinary circumstances compel special
terms and conditions. Acceptance of such waste shall not cause the
POTW to violate its SPDES permit or the receiving water quality standards
or any pretreatment regulations promulgated by the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) or NYSDEC.
