[Ord. 2012-02, 7/5/2012, § 3.1]
Users shall provide wastewater treatment as necessary to comply with this Part and shall achieve compliance with all categorical pretreatment standards, local limits, and the prohibitions set out in §
18-505 of this Part within the time limitations specified by EPA, the state, or the owner, whichever is more stringent. Any facilities necessary for compliance shall be provided, operated, and maintained at the user's expense. Detailed plans describing such facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the owner for review, and shall be acceptable to the owner before such facilities are constructed. The review of such plans and operating procedures shall in no way relieve the user from the responsibility of modifying such facilities as necessary to produce a discharge acceptable to the owner under the provisions of this Part.
[Ord. 2012-02, 7/5/2012, § 3.3]
1. Whenever deemed necessary, the owner may require users to restrict
their discharge during peak flow periods, designate that certain wastewater
be discharged only into specific sewers, relocate and/or consolidate
points of discharge, separate sewage waste streams from industrial
waste streams, and such other conditions as may be necessary to protect
the POTW and determine the user's compliance with the requirements
of this Part.
2. The owner may require any person discharging into the POTW to install
and maintain, on their property and at their expense, a suitable storage
and flow-control facility to ensure equalization of flow. A wastewater
discharge permit may be issued solely for flow equalization.
3. Grease, oil, and sand interceptors shall be provided by the user
when, in the opinion of the owner, they are necessary for the proper
handling of wastewater containing excessive amounts of grease and
oil, or sand; except, that such interceptors shall not be required
for residential users. All interception units shall be of type and
capacity approved by the owner and shall be so located to be easily
accessible for cleaning and inspection. Such interceptors shall be
inspected, cleaned, and repaired regularly, as needed, by the user
at their expense.
4. Users with the potential to discharge flammable substances may be
required to install and maintain an approved combustible gas detection
meter.
[Ord. 2012-02, 7/5/2012, § 3.3]
1. The owner may require any significant industrial user to develop,
submit for approval, and implement an accidental discharge/slug control
plan. Alternatively, the owner may develop such a plan for any user.
An accidental discharge/slug control plan shall address, at a minimum,
the following:
A. Description of discharge practices, including nonroutine batch discharges.
B. Description of stored chemicals.
C. Procedures for immediately notifying the owner of any accidental or slug discharge, as required by §
18-536 of this Part.
D. Procedures to prevent adverse impact from any accidental or slug
discharge. Such procedures include, but are not limited to, inspection
and maintenance of storage areas, handling and transfer of materials,
loading an unloading operations, control of plant site runoff, worker
training, building of containment structures or equipment, measures
for containing toxic organic pollutants, including solvents, and/or
measures and equipment for emergency response.
[Ord. 2012-02, 7/5/2012, § 3.4]
1. No load of hauled wastewater may be discharged to the POTW without
the prior consent of the owner, which consent is within its sole discretion.
Hauled wastewater may be introduced into the POTW only at locations
designated by the owner, and at such times as are established by the
owner. Such waste shall not violate Subpart B of this Part or any
other requirements established by the owner. The owner may collect
samples of each hauled load to ensure compliance with applicable standards.
The owner may require the wastewater hauler to sample and provide
a waste analysis of any load prior to discharge.
2. The owner may require all wastewater haulers who discharge to the
POTW to obtain wastewater discharge permits. All waste haulers must
provide a waste-tracking form for every load. This form shall include,
at a minimum, the name and address of the waste hauler, permit number,
truck identification, names and addresses of sources of waste, and
volume and characteristics of waste. The form shall identify the source
and any known or suspected waste constituents, and whether any wastes
are RCRA hazardous wastes.
3. The owner may require generators of hauled industrial waste which
is discharged to the POTW to obtain wastewater discharge permits.
The discharge of hauled industrial waste is subject to all other requirements
of this Part.
