BOD and/or suspended solids in excess of that found in normal sewage
in accordance with this Article.
[Ord. No. 2206 §§1 —
2, 6-5-2000]
A.
All
permittees are responsible for defraying the costs of administering
the permitting program.
B.
Permit
application review fees are applicable and are normally due at the

Permit
maintenance fees have been calculated to include a portion of the
average costs of sampling and analysis for each class of permit as
well as the costs of compliance inspections, report reviews, data
analyses, permit modifications, correspondence and other routine permit
maintenance activities. Permit maintenance fees are payable on a monthly/
bimonthly basis.
D.
If
additional sampling and analyses are required by enforcement circumstances,
sample collection shall be billed at the rate of two hundred fifty
dollars ($250.00) per occurrence (day) and sample analyses shall be
billed at cost.
E.
A wastewater
discharge permit shall be issued/reissued only after payment of applicable
fees. Permit fees are non-refundable. The following fees are applicable:

Note 1.
|
|
Permit maintenance fees, except for Class 1 permits, will be subject to a two hundred percent (200%) surcharge for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months following a determination of significant non-compliance (SNC) as defined in Section 705.580.
|
|
Permit maintenance fees, except for Class 1, will be subject
to a forty percent (40%) discount after a period of twelve (12) consecutive
months with no "notice of violation" (NOV) non-compliance determinations.
This discount will be rescinded immediately upon issuance of any NOV.
|
|
Note 2.
|
|---|
|
Ground water remediation projects which are not associated with
an active water/sewer billing account will be charged a lump sum fee
equal to the monthly maintenance fee multiplied by the term of the
permit in months.

A.
Imposition. When the BOD, suspended solids and/or oil and
grease concentration of a discharge exceeds the maximum concentration
of any or all of these components in normal sewage, a surcharge or
surcharges established by the formula hereinafter set forth shall
be levied in addition to the normal sewer service charge.
B.
Computation Of Amount. The surcharge shall be computed by
using the formulae:
|
|
SBOD
|
(Vs)(0.00624)(RB)(BOD-250)
|
= (Vs)
|
|
Sss
|
(Vs)(0.00624)(RS)(SS-250)
|
= (Vs)
| |
|
SO&G
|
(Vs)(0.00624)(RG)(OG-30)
|
= (Vs)
| |
|
ESC
|
Extra Strength Control Charges
|
= Extra
| |
|
|
The symbols, letters or figures employed in the formulae signify:
| ||
|
|
SBOD, Sss & SO&G
|
Extra strength surcharges in dollars
| |
|
Vs
|
Wastewater volume in hundred cubic feet
| ||
|
0.00624
|
Conversion factor from milligrams per liter to pounds per hundred
cubic feet
| ||
|
RB
|
Surcharge rate established in this Chapter, as the same now
exists or may hereafter be amended, in dollars for the treatment of
each pound of BOD in excess of two hundred fifty (250) mg/l which
is the concentration of normal sewage
| ||
|
BOD
|
BOD concentration of the discharge in milligrams per liter
| ||
|
RS
|
Surcharge rate established in this Chapter, as the same now
exists or may hereafter be amended, in dollars for the treatment of
each pound of suspended solids in excess of two hundred fifty (250)
mg/l which is the concentration of normal sewage
| ||
|
SS
|
Suspended solids concentration of the discharge in milligrams
per liter
| ||
|
RG
|
Surcharge rate established in this Chapter, as the same now
exists or may hereafter be amended, in dollars for the treatment of
each pound of oil and grease in excess of thirty (30) mg/l which is
the concentration of normal sewage
| ||
|
OG
|
Oil and grease concentration of the discharge in milligrams
per liter
| ||
|
ESC
|
Extra strength control charge
| ||
|
|
The extra strength control (ESC) charge shall be the actual
departmental cost for each individual user, including overhead, related
to obtaining, measuring and analyzing wastewater samples to determine
wastewater strengths for billing purposes. The Director shall determine
the method and frequency of said testing as may be reasonable for
each industrial user in accordance with recognized engineering practices;
provided however, that an industrial user shall be entitled to additional
sampling at its request upon payment of additional costs therefor.
In lieu of sampling and analysis by the City, the Director, at his
discretion, may permit an industrial user to collect and analyze samples
of its own wastewater at its own expense, provided that samples are
taken at least annually and collected and analyzed in accordance with
standard laboratory methods and the results are certified by a professional
engineer registered in the State of Missouri. The City reserves the
right to verify any such submitted data.
