[Adopted as Sec. 13.06 of the former Municipal Codebook]
No person may discharge septage, holding tank waste or any other waste into a manhole or other opening in the sewage collection system without prior approval of the Public Works Department.
A. 
Licensed disposers may make application to the Public Works Department to dispose of septage or holding tank waste to the City's wastewater facilities. Applications for disposal during the winter (November 15 to April 15) shall be submitted prior to September 1 of that year (Wis. Adm. Code requirement).
B. 
The licensed disposer shall make a written application containing, as a minimum, the following information:
(1) 
Name of disposer and license number.
(2) 
Name, address and telephone number of disposer.
(3) 
Type of waste and source(s).
(4) 
Estimates of quantities, disposal dates (by type), and methods for discharge into the sewerage system.
(5) 
Statement certifying that:
(a) 
The waste contains no known toxic substances; and
(b) 
The disposer is familiar with and understands the Department requirements for waste disposal.
C. 
The Public Works Department shall require the licensed disposer to analyze representative samples of the waste in order to determine the characteristics of the waste and the compatibility with the sewerage system. The Public Works Department may not require the analysis of waste from exclusively residential sources.
D. 
The Public Works Department may deny or approve an application for septage or holding tank waste disposal during the period between April 16 and November 14. The only requirements that licensed disposers discharge to the sewerage system and that the Department accept and treat said waste during nonwinter months are those provided in § NR 113.07, Wis. Adm. Code. If approved, the Department may set conditions for disposal.
E. 
For applications for disposal between November 15 and April 15, the Department shall review the application and provide written approval or denial of disposal to the licensed disposer by October 1 of each year. The Department may deny acceptance of the waste if the Department determines that:
(1) 
Treatment of the septage or holding tank waste would cause the wastewater treatment plant to exceed its operating design capacity or to violate any applicable effluent limitations or standards, water quality standards, or any other legally applicable requirements, including court orders or state or federal statutes, rules, regulations, or orders; or
(2) 
The septage or holding tank waste is not compatible with the sewerage system; or
(3) 
The disposer has not applied for and received approval to dispose of septage or holding tank waste to the sewerage system or the disposer fails to comply with the disposal plan or rules promulgated by the Department.
F. 
The Public Works Department may require the disposer to post a bond or other financial guarantee that the disposer will comply with the Department's requirements.
Any septage, holding tank waste, or similar waste permitted to be discharged under this article shall be of domestic origin and/or contain compatible pollutants only. The hauler or licensed disposer shall comply with the provisions of any and all applicable laws and regulations, including these regulations. Without limiting other relevant provisions of these regulations, such person or licensed disposer shall not deposit or drain any gasoline, oil, acid, alkali, grease, rags, volatile or flammable liquids, or other deleterious substances into any manhole, building sewer, or public sewer; nor shall such person or licensed disposer allow any grease, earth, sand, or other solid materials to pass into any part of the sewerage system; nor shall such person or licensed disposer discharge any liquid, gaseous, or solid wastes determined by the Department to be detrimental to the sewerage system or the City's employees or to the process of sewage treatment.
