No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged into the sewer system any industrial wastes without prior application for and receipt of a written permit from the Borough.
Any person desiring to make or use a connection through which industrial wastes shall be discharged into the sewer system shall file with the Borough a completed industrial wastes questionnaire, furnished by the Borough, which shall supply pertinent data, including estimated quantity of flow, characteristics and constituents of the proposed discharge. The cost of obtaining all such data shall be borne by the person desiring to make or use the connection to the sewer system.
A. 
Prior to the first day of February of each year, each major contributor of industrial wastes shall file with the Borough a report on the quality and quantity of their discharge, as well as any process changes, system improvements or problems which may have occurred throughout the preceding calendar year.
B. 
Major contributors shall consist of those whose total estimated or metered discharge exceeds 2,500 gallons per day, have in their waste a toxic pollutant or, in the judgment of the Borough, would have a significant impact on the sewer system or the quality of its effluent.
A. 
When required by the Borough, the owner of any improved property serviced by a building sewer carrying industrial wastes shall install, at his expense, a suitable control manhole, together with such necessary meters and other appurtenances in the building sewer, to facilitate observation, sampling and measurement of the waste flow.
B. 
All measurements, tests, and analysis of the characteristics of waters and wastes to which reference is made herein shall be determined in accordance with the latest edition of Standard Methods for Examination of Water and Wastewater, published by the American Public Health Association, Inc., and shall be determined by or under the direct supervision of a qualified analyst at the control manhole provided, or upon suitable samples taken at such control manhole. In the event that no special manhole has been required, the control manhole shall be considered to be the nearest downstream manhole in the public sewer to the point at which the building sewer is connected. Sampling shall be carried out by customarily accepted methods to reflect the effect of constituents upon the sewer system and to determine the existence of hazards to life, limb, and property. (The particular analyses involved will determine whether a twenty-four-hour composite of all outfalls of a premises is appropriate or whether a grab sample or samples must be taken.)
Any industrial establishment discharging domestic sanitary sewage and/or industrial wastes into the sewer system and contemplating a change in the method of operation which will alter the characteristics and/or volume of such wastes being discharged shall notify the Borough, in writing, at least 10 days prior to institution of such change.
Grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be provided by the owner of any industrial, commercial or institutional establishment, with floor drains, commercial kitchens having deep fryers or grills or when required by the Borough, at his sole cost, for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing excessive grease, inflammable wastes, sand or other harmful substances. All interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the Borough, and constructed or installed at a satisfactory location in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations and plans approved by the Borough prior to installation or commencement of construction.
The Borough may require industrial establishments having large variations in rates of waste discharge to install suitable regulating devices for equalizing waste flows to the sewer system.
