1.
Any (significant industrial) user subject to a pretreatment standard, after the compliance date of such pretreatment standard, or, in the case of a new source, after commencement of the discharge into the POTW, shall submit to the Superintendent during the months of June and December, unless required more frequently in the pretreatment standard or by the Superintendent, a report indicating the nature and concentration, of pollutants in the effluent which are limited by such pretreatment standards. In addition, this report shall include a record of all daily flows which during the reporting period exceeded the average daily flow reported in Subsection (A) of this Section. At the discretion of the Superintendent and in consideration of such factors as local high or low flow rates, holidays, budget cycles, etc., the Superintendent may agree to alter the months during which the above reports are to be submitted.
2.
The Superintendent may impose mass limitations on users which
are using dilution to meet applicable pretreatment standards or requirements,
or in other cases where the imposition of mass limitations are appropriate.
In such cases, the report required by Subparagraph (1) of this Subsection
shall indicate the mass of pollutants regulated by pretreatment standards
in the effluent of the user. These reports shall contain the results
of sampling and analysis of the discharge, including the flow and
the nature and concentration, or production and mass where requested
by the Superintendent, of pollutants contained therein which are limited
by the applicable pretreatment standards. The frequency of monitoring
shall be prescribed in the applicable pretreatment standard. All analysis
shall be performed in accordance with procedures established by the
Administrator pursuant to Section 304(q) of the Act and contained
in 40 CFR, Part 136 and amendments thereto or with any other test
procedures approved by the Administrator. Sampling shall be performed
in accordance with the techniques approved by the Administrator.
3.
In cases where the pretreatment standard requires compliance
with a Best Management Practice (BMP) or pollution prevention alternative,
the user must submit documentation required by the Superintendent
or the pretreatment standard necessary to determine the compliance
status of the user.
4.
If a user subject to the reporting requirement in this Section monitors any regulated pollutant at the appropriate sampling location more frequently than required by the Superintendent, using the procedures prescribed in Section 710.160(B)(8) of this Chapter, the results of this monitoring shall be included in the report.
5.
Annual Certification For Non-Significant Categorical Industrial
Users. A facility determined to be a non-significant categorical industrial
user by the Superintendent pursuant to Sections 1.4GG(3) and 4.7 C
[Note: See 40 CFR Section 403.3(v)(2)] must annually submit the following
certification statement signed in accordance with the signatory requirements
in Section 1.4 C [Note: See 40 CFR Section 403.120(1)]. This certification
must accompany an alternative report required by the Superintendent:
|
Based on my inquiry of the person or persons directly responsible
for managing compliance with the categorical pretreatment standards
under 40 CFR _____, I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and
belief that during the period from __________, _____ to _____, _____
[months, days, year]:
| |
|
(a)
|
The facility described as ______________ [facility name] met
the definition of a non-significant categorical industrial user as
described in 1.4 GG (3);
|
|
(b)
|
The facility complied with all applicable pretreatment standards
and requirements during this reporting period; and
|
|
(c)
|
The facility never discharged more than 100 gallons of total
categorical wastewater on any given day during this reporting period.
This compliance certification is based on the following information.
|
6.
Certification of Pollutants Not Present. Users that have an approved monitoring waiver based on Section 710.150(B)(7) must certify on each report with the following statement that there has been no increase in the pollutant in its wastestream due to activities of the user.
|
Based on my inquiry of the person or persons directly responsible for managing compliance with the pretreatment standard for 40 CFR __________ [specify applicable national pretreatment standard part(s)], I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, there has been no increase in the level of ____________________ [list pollutant(s)] in the wastewaters due to the activities at the facility since filing of the last periodic report under Section 710.160.
|
7.
All pollutant analyses, including sampling techniques, to be
submitted as part of a wastewater discharge permit application or
report shall be performed in accordance with the techniques prescribed
in 40 CFR Part 136 and amendments thereto, unless otherwise specified
in an applicable categorical pretreatment standard. If 40 CFR Part
136 does not contain sampling or analytical techniques for the pollutant
in question, or where the EPA determines that the Part 136 sampling
and analytical techniques are inappropriate for the pollutant in question,
sampling and analyses shall be performed by using validated analytical
methods or any other applicable sampling and analytical procedures,
including procedures suggested by the Superintendent or other parties
approved by EPA.
8.
Samples collected to satisfy reporting requirements must be based on data obtained through appropriate sampling and analysis performed during the period covered by the report, based on data that is representative of conditions occurring during the reporting period. For sampling required in support of baseline monitoring and ninety-day compliance reports required in Section 710.160, a minimum of four (4) grab samples must be used for pH, cyanide, total phenols, oil and grease, sulfide and volatile organic compounds for facilities for which historical sampling data do not exist; for facilities for which historical sampling data are available, the Superintendent may authorize a lower minimum. For the reports required by Section 710.160(B), the industrial user is required to collect the number of grab samples necessary to assess and assure compliance by with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements.
C.
Record Keeping. Users subject to the reporting requirements of this Chapter shall retain, and make available for inspection and copying, all records of information obtained pursuant to any monitoring activities required by this Chapter, any additional records of information obtained pursuant to monitoring activities undertaken by the user independent of such requirements, and documentation associated with best management practices established under Section 710.160(B)(3). Records shall include the date, exact place, method, and time of sampling, and the name of the person(s) taking the samples; the dates analyses were performed; who performed the analyses; the analytical techniques or methods used; and the results of such analyses. These records shall remain available for a period of at least three (3) years. This period shall be automatically extended for the duration of any litigation concerning the user or the City of Marshfield, or where the user has been specifically notified of a longer retention period by the Superintendent.

A.
The City shall require to be provided and operated at the user's
own expense, monitoring facilities to allow inspection, sampling,
and flow measurement of the building sewer and/or internal drainage
systems. The monitoring facility should normally be situated on the
user's premises, but the City may, when such a location would
be impractical or cause undue hardship on the user, allow the facility
to be constructed in the public street or sidewalk area and located
so that it will not be obstructed by landscaping or parked vehicles.
B.
There shall be ample room in or near such sampling manhole or facility
to allow accurate sampling and preparation of samples for analysis.
The facility, sampling, and measuring equipment shall be maintained
at all times in a safe and proper operating condition at the expense
of the user.

The City shall inspect the facilities of any user to ascertain
whether the purpose of this Chapter is being met and all requirements
are being complied with. Persons or occupants of premises where wastewater
is created or discharged shall allow the City or their representative
ready access at all reasonable times to all parts of the premises
for the purposes of inspection, sampling, records examination or in
the performance of any of their duties. The City, approval authority
and (where the NPDES State is the approval authority), the EPA shall
have the right to set up on the user's property such devices
as are necessary to conduct sampling inspection, compliance monitoring
and/or metering operations. Where a user has security measures in
force which would require proper identification and clearance before
entry into their premises, the user shall make necessary arrangements
with their security guards so that upon presentation of suitable identification,
personnel from the City, approval authority and EPA will be permitted
to enter, without delay, for the purposes of performing their specific
responsibilities.
[R.O. 2014 §710.190; Ord. No. 414 §4.6, 9-25-1980; Ord. No. 574 §4.6, 5-10-1990; Ord. No. 1977, 1-14-2021]
A.
Users shall provide necessary wastewater treatment as required to
comply with this Chapter and shall achieve compliance with all Federal
Categorical Pretreatment Standards within the time limitations as
specified by the Federal pretreatment regulations. Any facilities
required to pretreat wastewater to a level acceptable to the City
shall be provided, operated, and maintained at the user's expense.
Detailed plans showing the pretreatment facilities and operating procedures
shall be submitted to the City for review, and shall be acceptable
to the City before construction of the facility. The review of such
plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve the user from
the responsibility of modifying the facility as necessary to produce
an effluent acceptable to the City under the provisions of this Chapter.
Any subsequent changes in the pretreatment facilities or method of
operation shall be reported to and be acceptable to the City prior
to the user's initiation of the changes.
B.
The City shall annually publish in the Marshfield Mail newspaper
a list of the users which were not in compliance with any pretreatment
requirements or standards at least once during the twelve (12) previous
months. The notification shall also summarize any enforcement actions
taken against the user(s) during the same twelve (12) months.
C.
All records relating to compliance with pretreatment standards shall
be made available to officials of the EPA or approval authority upon
request.
D.
The term significant non-compliance shall be applicable to all significant industrial users (or any other industrial user that violates Subsections (D)(3), (4) or (8) of this Section) and shall mean:
1.
Chronic violations of wastewater discharge limits, defined here as those in which sixty-six percent (66%) or more of all the measurements taken for the same pollutant parameter taken during a six-month period exceed (by any magnitude) a numeric pretreatment standard or requirement, including instantaneous limits as defined in Section 710.040;
2.
Technical Review Criteria (TRC) violations, defined here as those in which thirty-three percent (33%) or more of wastewater measurements taken for each pollutant parameter during a six-month period equals or exceeds the product of the numeric pretreatment standard or requirement including instantaneous limits, as defined by Section 710.040 multiplied by the applicable criteria (1.4 for BOD, TSS, fats, oils and grease, and 1.2 for all other pollutants except pH);
3.
Any other violation of a pretreatment standard or requirement as defined by Section 710.040 (daily maximum, long-term average, instantaneous limit, or narrative standard) that the Superintendent determines has caused, alone or in combination with other discharges, interference or pass through, including endangering the health of POTW personnel or the general public;
4.
Any discharge of a pollutant that has caused imminent endangerment
to the public or to the environment, or has resulted in the Superintendent's
exercise of its emergency authority to halt or prevent such a discharge;
5.
Failure to meet, within ninety (90) days of the scheduled date,
a compliance schedule milestone contained in an individual wastewater
discharge permit or enforcement order for starting construction, completing
construction, or attaining final compliance;
6.
Failure to provide within forty-five (45) days after the due
date, any required reports, including baseline monitoring reports,
reports on compliance with categorical pretreatment standard deadlines,
periodic self-monitoring reports, and reports on compliance with compliance
schedules;
7.
Failure to accurately report non-compliance; or
8.
Any other violation(s), which may include a violation of best
management practices, which the Superintendent determines will adversely
affect the operation or implementation of the local pretreatment program.
E.
A CIU may obtain a net/gross adjustment to a categorical pretreatment
standard in accordance with the following Subsections of this Section.
1.
Categorical pretreatment standards may be adjusted to reflect the presence of pollutants in the industrial user's intake water in accordance with this Section. Any industrial user wishing to obtain credit for intake pollutants must make application to the City of Marshfield. Upon request of the industrial user, the applicable standard will be calculated on a "net" basis (i.e., adjusted to reflect credit for pollutants in the intake water) if the requirements of Subsection (E)(2) of this Subsection are met.
2.
Criteria.
a.
Either:
(1)
The applicable categorical pretreatment standards
contained in 40 CFR Subchapter N specifically provide that they shall
be applied on a net basis; or
(2)
The industrial user demonstrates that the control
system it proposes or uses to meet applicable categorical pretreatment
standards would, if properly installed and operated, meet the standards
in the absence of pollutants in the intake waters.
b.
Credit for generic pollutants such as biochemical oxygen demand
(BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), and oil and grease should not
be granted unless the industrial user demonstrates that the constituents
of the generic measure in the user's effluent are substantially
similar to the constituents of the generic measure in the intake water
or unless appropriate additional limits are placed on process water
pollutants either at the outfall or elsewhere.
c.
Credit shall be granted only to the extent necessary to meet
the applicable categorical pretreatment standard(s), up to a maximum
value equal to the influent value. Additional monitoring may be necessary
to determine eligibility for credits and compliance with standard(s)
adjusted under this Section.
d.
Credit shall be granted only if the user demonstrates that the
intake water is drawn from the same body of water as that into which
the POTW discharges. The City of Marshfield may waive this requirement
if it finds that no environmental degradation will result.
F.
The City of Marshfield may authorize an industrial user subject to
a categorical pretreatment standard to forego sampling of a pollutant
regulated by a categorical pretreatment standard if the industrial
user has demonstrated through sampling and other technical factors
that the pollutant is neither present nor expected to be present in
the discharge, or is present only at background levels from intake
water and without any increase in the pollutant due to activities
of the industrial user. This authorization is subject to the following
conditions:
1.
The waiver may be authorized where a pollutant is determined
to be present solely due to sanitary wastewater discharged from the
facility provided that the sanitary wastewater is not regulated by
an applicable categorical standard and otherwise includes no process
wastewater.
2.
The monitoring waiver is valid only for the duration of the effective period of the individual wastewater discharge permit, but in no case longer than five (5) years. The user must submit a new request for the waiver before the waiver can be granted for each subsequent individual wastewater discharge permit. See Section 710.160(B)(6).
3.
In making a demonstration that a pollutant is not present, the
industrial user must provide data from at least one (1) sampling of
the facility's process wastewater prior to any treatment present
at the facility that is representative of all wastewater from all
processes.
4.
The request for a monitoring waiver must be signed in accordance with Section 710.020 and include the certification statement in 710.160(B).
5.
Non-detectable sample results may be used only as a demonstration
that a pollutant is not present if the EPA approved method from 40
CFR Part 136 with the lowest minimum detection level for that pollutant
was used in the analysis.
6.
Any grant of the monitoring waiver by the Superintendent must
be included as a condition in the user's permit. The reasons
supporting the waiver and any information submitted by the user in
its request for the waiver must be maintained by the Superintendent
for three (3) years after expiration of the waiver.
7.
Upon approval of the monitoring waiver and revision of the user's
permit by the Superintendent, the industrial user must certify on
each report with the statement in 710.160(B)(6), that there has been
no increase in the pollutant in its wastestream due to activities
of the industrial user.
8.
In the event that a waived pollutant is found to be present or is expected to be present because of changes that occur in the user's operations, the user must immediately: Comply with the monitoring requirements of Section 710.160(B)(1), or other more frequent monitoring requirements imposed by the Superintendent, and notify the Superintendent.
9.
This provision does not supersede certification processes and
requirements established in categorical pretreatment standards, except
as otherwise specified in the categorical pretreatment standard.

A.
Information and data on a user obtained from reports, questionnaires,
permit applications, permits and monitoring programs and from inspections
shall be available to the public or other governmental agencies without
restriction unless the user specifically requests and is able to demonstrate
to the satisfaction of the City that the release of such information
would divulge information, processes or methods of production entitled
to protection as trade secrets of the user.
B.
When requested by the person furnishing a report, the portions of
a report which might disclose trade secrets or secret processes shall
not be made available for inspection by the public but shall be made
available upon written request to governmental agencies for uses related
to this Chapter, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permit, State disposal system permit and/or the pretreatment
programs; provided, however, that such portions of a report shall
be available for use by the State or any State agency injudicial review
or enforcement proceedings involving the person furnishing the report.
Wastewater constituents and characteristics will not be recognized
as confidential information.
C.
Information accepted by the City as confidential, shall not be transmitted
to any governmental agency or to the general public by the City until
and unless a ten-day notification is given to the user.
