Such other information as the Village may deem necessary.

An intermunicipal agreement with a contributing municipality shall contain the following conditions:
(1) 
A requirement for the contributing municipality to adopt a sewer use local law which is at least as stringent as this Part 1 and local limits, including required baseline monitoring reports (BMRs) which are at least as stringent as those set out in § 46-77. The requirement shall specify that such local law and limits must be revised as necessary to reflect changes made to the Village sewer use local law or local limits;

(3) 
A requirement for the contributing municipality to provide the Superintendent with access to all information that the contributing municipality obtains as part of its pretreatment activities;
