if such standards are thereafter promulgated in accordance with that
section, provided that:
The building, structure, facility, or installation is constructed
at a site which no other source is located; or
The building, structure, facility, or installation totally replaces
the process or production equipment that causes the discharge of pollutants
at an existing source; or
The production or wastewater generating processes of the building,
structure, facility, or installation is substantially independent
of an existing source at the same site. In determining whether these
are substantially independent, factors such as the extent to which
the new facility is integrated with the existing plant, and the extent
to which the new facility is engaged in the same general type of activity
as the existing source, should be considered.
|
Construction on a site at which an existing source is located
results in a modification rather than a new source if the construction
does not create a new building, structure, facility, or installation
meeting the criteria of subsection 2 or 3 but otherwise alters, replaces,
or adds to existing process or production equipment.
| ||
|
Construction of a new source as defined under this paragraph
has commenced if the owner or operator has:

40 CFR Chapter I, Subchapter N, Parts 405 through 471, are hereby
incorporated into this waste ordinance and made a part thereof. All
categorical users are required to comply with those National Categorical
Standards, which are applicable to them.
G.
Point
of Application of Limits. Compliance with the discharge limits and
standards listed in this section shall be determined at a location
or locations deemed appropriate by the director of public works. Where
the National Categorical Standards are applicable, the point of application
shall be appropriate for these standards.
H.
Right
of Revision. The city of Manteca reserves the right to establish,
by this waste ordinance or in wastewater discharge permits, more stringent
standards or requirements on discharges to the POTW. The city reserves
the right to establish, by this waste ordinance or in wastewater discharge
permits, discharge limitations or prohibitions for pollutants not
specifically listed in this waste ordinance.
(Ord. 1576 § 2, 2016)
A.
Classification
of Users. All users shall be classified for wastewater disposal purposes
in accordance with the activities conducted upon the premises, as
determined by the director of public works. The purpose of classification
is to facilitate the regulation of wastewater dischargers and the
recovery of equitable and appropriate fees. The classification of
a user will be used to determine the discharge fee and connection
fee, as described in the Manteca fee schedule.
B.
Notification
of Industrial Discharge. Any person contributing industrial waste
to the Manteca water pollution control system is required to notify
the Manteca department of public works of their discharge. Any new
business is required to notify the department of public works of their
intent to discharge industrial waste ninety days prior to commencing
the discharge. These notification requirements are effective upon
the adoption date of this waste ordinance.
Discharge of industrial waste from any of the following sources
is subject to the approval of the director of public works: new connections,
added burden from increased or changed discharge by existing sources,
contaminated groundwater disposal, septage disposal, and limited and
temporary disposal of trucked or hauled waste.
Discharge Limitations. All industrial waste dischargers, users
of the Manteca water pollution control system, and permittees shall
comply with all provisions of this waste ordinance, the industrial
discharge permit, any applicable waste ordinance or permit of a member
jurisdiction; and any other applicable federal, state or local laws,
regulations, or permits for all discharges to the water pollution
control system.
C.
Industrial
Discharge Permit Requirements. Industrial discharge to the Manteca
water pollution control system may be permitted by the deputy director
of public works. Upon notification of an occurring or potential industrial
waste discharge the deputy director of public works or agent will
evaluate the waste flow, concentration, and make-up to determine if
the user requires an industrial discharge permit. If a permit is required,
the user will be required to complete an application for an industrial
discharge permit, to be submitted to the Manteca department of public
works within ninety days of the date of the notice to apply. The submittal
of an application form, application fee, or renewal form does not
guarantee the granting of a permit, and the application for permit
may be denied.

The deputy director of public works may require the user to submit such information as may be deemed necessary to evaluate the changed conditions, including the submission of wastewater discharge permit application under Section 13.20.050 of this waste ordinance.
b.
The deputy director of public works may issue a wastewater discharge permit under Section 13.20.050(C) of this waste ordinance or modify an existing wastewater discharge permit under Section 13.20.050(C) of this waste ordinance in response to changed conditions or anticipated changed conditions.
c.
For the purpose of this requirement, significant changes include,
but are not limited to, flow increases of twenty percent or greater,
flow increases greater than the user's sewer allocation, and the discharge
of any previously unreported pollutants.
4.
Periodic
Reports on Continued Compliance. [Note: All SIUs are required to submit
periodic compliance reports even if they have been designated a non-significant
categorical industrial user under the provisions of 40 CFR 403.3(v)(2).]
All significant industrial users and categorical industrial
users must, at a frequency determined by the director submit no less
than twice per year (June and December) reports indicating the nature,
concentration of pollutants in the discharge which are limited by
pretreatment standards and the measured or estimated average and maximum
daily flows for the reporting period. In cases where the pretreatment
standard requires compliance with a best management practice (BMP)
or pollution prevention alternative, the user must submit documentation
required by the director or the pretreatment standard necessary to
determine the compliance status of the user.
5.
Other
Reports. All industrial users shall submit to the deputy director
of public works any other reports as deemed reasonable and necessary
by the deputy director of public works, in addition to those described
above, to demonstrate compliance with this waste ordinance, the industrial
discharge permit, or any applicable state and federal regulations.
Such reports include, but are not limited to, any reports or plans
required by federal, California state, or local laws or regulations.
C.
Record
Keeping Requirement. All persons subject to the reporting requirements
of this waste ordinance and 40 CFR 403.12 shall maintain records of
all information resulting from any monitoring activities and results,
and make such records available for inspection and copying by EPA
officials and Manteca personnel or agents, for a minimum of three
years, or a period of litigation whichever is longer.
(Ord. 1576 § 2, 2016)
A.
Inspection
Procedure. Manteca shall inspect the premises of any user to establish
compliance with the provisions of this waste ordinance, the user's
industrial discharge permit, and any applicable California state,
federal, and local laws pertaining to the treatment and discharge
of waste to the water pollution control system.
1.
Inspections
shall be made under the provisions of this waste ordinance and/or
the user's industrial waste permit. If the user refuses reasonable
access to the premises for purposes of inspection and monitoring,
Manteca shall notify the user that he or she is in violation of this
waste ordinance and the deputy director of public works may issue
an administrative order, mandating such access by a specified date
and at all reasonable times subsequent to that date.
2.
An
administrative warrant may be obtained in instances where the deputy
director of public works or agent believes there is substantial evidence
that user refusal to consent to inspection and/or monitoring is concealing
criminal acts, or willful or negligent discharges in violation of
this waste ordinance or any other applicable laws or regulations.
3.
Where deemed necessary to protect the water pollution control system, the environment, or the public health, safety, or welfare from the effects of present or imminent discharges, the director of public works or agent may invoke emergency measures, as described in Section 13.20.090(C) of this waste ordinance. These measures include providing access to a premises for the director of public works or agents, without the consent of the owner or user.
4.
Manteca
retains the right to enter the premises to inspect the premises, processes,
and records of the user; to sample or monitor the discharge, and to
copy all records relating to pretreatment, chemical and waste storage,
and waste discharge to the Manteca water pollution control system,
pursuant to 40 CFR 403.8(f)(1)(v), to verify that the waste discharge
is in compliance with industrial discharge permit, with this waste
ordinance, and all applicable state, federal, and local laws pertaining
to pretreatment and waste disposal to POTWs or waters of the United
States. Manteca shall also have the right to install and operate any
necessary sampling and monitoring equipment on the premises of the
user, at a fee cost to the user, to document compliance.
5.
The
user shall provide a discharge sampling point and Manteca staff shall
have access to the sampling point at all reasonable times. Manteca
has the right to observe any waste sampling conducted by the user.
6.
In
the event of an emergency or a spill on the user's premises, the user
shall notify the Manteca POTW and the fire department that a spill
has occurred or is occurring and of the type of spill, including the
content, volume, location, and approximate time that the spill occurred
or began. Notification to Manteca of a spill implies consent for Manteca
to enter and inspect the premises. Manteca staff may enter and inspect
the premises at that time, as reasonable, to abate the spill or emergency
event and to determine the circumstances of the spill event.
B.
Monitoring
Requirements. Manteca may require users to monitor their discharge
to the water pollution control system and report the results of the
monitoring to Manteca periodically. These monitoring and reporting
requirements are specific to the discharger, and are listed in the
industrial discharge permit. The deputy director of public works may
require additional monitoring and reporting to document compliance.
1.
Manteca
may require waste dischargers to install and operate monitoring facilities
at the point of discharge to the water pollution control system, at
the expense of the discharger. Manteca may also choose to install
and operate monitoring facilities on the premises of the discharger
to document compliance. These Manteca installed and operated facilities,
if required, will be at a fee cost to the user. The monitoring facilities
will be constructed, installed and operated to allow for inspection,
sampling, and measurement of flow or other parameters of the regulated
discharge. The monitoring facilities shall be in accordance with Manteca
construction standards and specifications. The facilities also shall
be maintained at all times in a safe and proper operating condition
at the expense of the discharger.
2.
Manteca
may require the discharger to conduct sampling and analysis of the
discharge at a frequency and type as specified by the deputy director
of public works or as required by the Federal Pretreatment Regulations
to demonstrate compliance with the prescribed waste discharge limits.
C.
Sampling.
The user shall sample his or her discharge to the waste pollution
control system at the frequency provided in the industrial discharge
permit or as deemed reasonable and necessary by the deputy director
of public works to demonstrate compliance. The deputy director of
public works may require sampling to be conducted by nonpermitted
users, at his or her discretion, or if noncompliance is suspected,
in which case, nonpermitted dischargers will be subject to the same
sampling and reporting requirements as permitted dischargers. The
discharger shall use the sampling and test procedures prescribed in
40 CFR Part 136 "Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis
of Pollutants," or amendments thereto, or otherwise approved by EPA.
Manteca also may specify additional sampling requirements or conduct
sampling as necessary and reasonable to insure compliance with this
waste ordinance and/or the industrial discharge permit.
1.
Initial
sampling equipment and methods shall be observed by the deputy director
of public works or agent. Before conducting initial sampling, the
user shall notify Manteca three days in advance and schedule a time
for Manteca staff to be present to observe the sampling procedure.
All sampling required by the industrial discharge permit, this waste
ordinance, or Manteca shall be at the expense of the user. The installation
of sampling equipment and/or the conducting of sampling on the user's
premises is at a fee cost to the user. All discharge samples for monitoring
and reporting shall be analyzed at a laboratory facility approved
by the deputy director of public works.
2.
Samples
collected to satisfy reporting requirements must be based on data
obtained through appropriate sampling and analysis performed during
the period covered by the report, based on data that is representative
of conditions occurring during the reporting period.
a.
Except as indicated in subsections b and c of this section, the user must collect wastewater samples using twenty-four-hour flow-proportional composite sampling techniques, unless time-proportional composite sampling or grab sampling is authorized by the director. Where time-proportional composite sampling or grab sampling is authorized by the city, the samples must be representative of the discharge. Using protocols (including appropriate preservation) specified in 40 CFR Part 136 and appropriate EPA guidance, multiple grab samples collected during a twenty-four-hour period may be composited prior to the analysis as follows: for cyanide, total phenols, and sulfides the samples may be composited in the laboratory or in the field; for volatile organics and oil and grease, the samples may be composited in the laboratory. Composite samples for other parameters unaffected by the compositing procedures as documented in approved EPA methodologies may be authorized by the city, as appropriate. In addition, grab samples may be required to show compliance with instantaneous limits.
b.
Samples for oil and grease, temperature, pH, cyanide, total phenols,
sulfides, and volatile organic compounds must be obtained using grab
collection techniques.
c.
For sampling required in support of baseline monitoring and ninety-day
compliance reports required in 40 CFR 403.12(b) and (d), a minimum
of four grab samples must be used for pH, cyanide, total phenols,
oil and grease, sulfide and volatile organic compounds for facilities
for which historical sampling data do not exist; for facilities for
which historical sampling data are available, the director may authorize
a lower minimum. For the reports required by 40 CFR 403.12(e) and
(h), the industrial user is required to collect the number of grab
samples necessary to assess and assure compliance with applicable
pretreatment standards and requirements.
D.
Pretreatment.
Persons discharging waste to the Manteca water pollution control system
shall install and operate any necessary wastewater treatment facilities
or equipment as required by the deputy director of public works to
achieve compliance with this waste ordinance and all National Pretreatment
Standards, within the time limitations specified in the National Pretreatment
Regulations, this waste ordinance, or the industrial discharge permit,
whichever occurs first. Any pretreatment facilities or equipment required
to bring the discharge in compliance with federal regulations, the
requirements of this waste ordinance, or the industrial discharge
permit shall be provided by the user at his or her expense.
Detailed plans for the construction and operation of the pretreatment
facilities shall be provided to Manteca for review and approval prior
to commencing construction. However, the review and approval of such
plans shall in no way relieve the user of the responsibility to modify
the pretreatment facilities, equipment, or operating procedures as
necessary to bring the discharge to an acceptable level of treatment.
Any subsequent changes to the design, installation, construction,
or operation of the pretreatment facilities or equipment shall be
reported to Manteca in writing and shall be acceptable to Manteca
prior to initiating such changes.
Manteca may specify operational and/or recording procedures
relative to routine operation of the pretreatment facilities. Such
requirements may include, but are not limited to, operation and maintenance
manuals, operation logbooks, operator training, and on-site storage
of spare parts and reserve treatment chemicals.
E.
Restaurant
Grease Traps. Restaurant process drains shall be connected to a grease
trap of a size and design deemed sufficient by the deputy director
of public works. These will be accessible for inspection by the deputy
director of public works or agent at all reasonable times. The traps
will be maintained as deemed sufficient by the deputy director of
public works.
(Ord. 1576 § 2, 2016)
All information and data submitted by the industrial user or
obtained from the user, in accordance with this waste ordinance, shall
be available to the public or and governmental agencies without restriction;
unless protected by state law.
(Ord. 1576 § 2, 2016)
A.
Enforcement
Mechanisms. This section presents the enforcement mechanisms and penalties
available to the city of Manteca to respond to instances of noncompliance.
The remedies for noncompliance, enforcement mechanisms, and penalties
are cumulative. The intent of this subsection is to provide adequate
mechanisms to achieve a maximum degree of compliance from all waste
dischargers. The following enforcement provisions apply to all users
of the Manteca water pollution control system, either directly or
indirectly, to the extent that a user violates any provision of this
waste ordinance, the industrial discharge permit, or an administrative
order issued by Manteca.
1.
Notice
of Violation (NOV). An NOV is always presented to the user in writing.
An NOV may be issued by the deputy director of public works or agent
in response to minor violations of this waste ordinance or the industrial
discharge permit. Manteca shall issue an NOV within ten working days
of a violation or notification that a violation has occurred. In an
emergency, Manteca may issue a verbal NOV which will be followed by
a written notice.
An NOV may also contain specific actions for the user to complete
such as conducting additional sampling, monitoring, or reporting,
or applying for an industrial discharge permit or permit renewal.
2.
Noncompliance
Fees. Manteca has the authority to assess fees for the reimbursement
of costs accrued by Manteca as a result of a violation by a user.
a.
Sampling and Inspection Fees. The deputy director of public works
may assess fees to the user for additional sampling, inspection, monitoring,
or the installation of Manteca equipment on the user's premises to
sample or monitor a discharge.
b.
Damage Fee. The deputy director of public works may also assess damage
fees to recover costs for damage to the water pollution control system,
Manteca, or the environment as a result of a discharge violation.
c.
Permit Violation Fee. The deputy director of public works may assess
a permit violation fee to recover costs for fines assessed to Manteca
as a result of a violation of its NPDES permit or any other federal,
California State, or local permit. The deputy director of public works
also may include reimbursement of costs accrued by Manteca for additional
sampling, inspection, environmental clean-up, lab fees, and any other
costs incurred by Manteca as a result of the permit violation. These
costs may be included as part of the permit violation fee and damage
fee which may be assessed to the user, if the discharge violation
caused, singly or in combination with other discharges, Manteca to
violate its permit. This includes an increase in the order of magnitude
of the Manteca permit violation.
3.
Suspend
Service. Manteca has the authority to suspend service to any user
found in violation of the waste ordinance, the industrial discharge
permit, California state and/or federal regulations, or the local
limits.
The director of public works or agent may also suspend service
in instances when a user refuses Manteca staff entry to the user's
premises for inspection, monitoring, or sampling purposes or to abate
a perceived illegal discharge. The suspension of service may remain
in force until the user allows entry to the premises.
4.
Administrative
Order. Manteca has the authority to issue an administrative order
to bring a user into compliance. An administrative order maybe either
a cease and desist order, show cause order, or compliance order. The
filing of an administrative order is under the discretion of the director
and/or deputy director of public works and is considered to be an
intermediate step to enforcing compliance.
5.
Annual
Publication of SNC Dischargers. In order to comply with Federal Pretreatment
Regulations, 40 CFR 403.8(f)(2)(vii), and to encourage users to remain
in compliance, Manteca shall annually publish a list of all users
which were in significant noncompliance (SNC) at any time in the past
twelve months. This public notification shall be in the largest daily
newspaper published in the service area.
6.
Other
Noncompliance Penalties. The following enforcement measures will be
used in instances of serious noncompliance, usually resulting in extreme
damage to the water pollution control system, or from fraudulent practices,
criminal noncompliance, violation of an administrative order, violation
of a compliance schedule, or negligent or intentional discharge of
waste which causes a threat to the health and/or safety of the public,
Manteca personnel, or the environment.
a.
Terminate Service. Waste discharge service to the water pollution
control system may be terminated, by disconnection of a user's sewer
connection, upon written notice by the director of public works or
agent for any of the following reasons:
i.
Violation of an administrative order.
ii.
Refusal to cooperate with Manteca staff or comply with Manteca policies.
iii.
Refusal to allow Manteca staff reasonable access to a premises
for purposes of inspection, monitoring, or abating an illegal discharge.
iv.
Fraudulent actions relating to reporting, self-monitoring, or Manteca
sampling or inspection.
v.
One or more serious violations which endanger the health and/or safety
of the public or Manteca personnel or which endangers the water pollution
control system and/or the environment.
b.
Pursuit of Criminal Prosecution. Where Manteca or its director of
public works determines that a criminal violation of the waste ordinance
has occurred, Manteca may pursue criminal prosecution, pursuant to
provisions of the Federal Clean Water Act and California Government
Code Sections 54725 and 54739. For each violation the offender may
receive thirty days in jail or a fine of one thousand dollars, or
both. A violation may be recorded for each instance of non-compliance
and for each day the noncompliance occurred.
c.
Pursuit of Civil Action. Where deemed appropriate by the director
of public works and the city attorney, Manteca will pursue civil action.
Actions taken may include, but are not limited to: civil suits for
damage to the water pollution control system, injunctive relief, and/or
civil penalties. Civil actions may be pursued on a strict liability
basis, regardless of intent, and shall include reimbursement for all
costs incurred by Manteca, including costs for repair, administrative
costs, and a penalty of twenty-five thousand dollars per day for each
violation pursuant to California Government Code Section 54740.
d.
Additional Administrative Remedies. Pursuant to California Government
Code Section 54740.5 [Violations—Administrative Complaints;
Civil Penalties], the director of public works may issue an administrative
complaint to any person who violates any requirement adopted or ordered
by a local agency pursuant to paragraph (1) or (2) of subdivision
(a) of Section 54739. The administrative complaint shall allege the
act or failure to act that constitutes the violation of the local
agency's requirements, the provisions of law authorizing civil liability
to be imposed, and the proposed civil penalty.
The administrative complaint shall be served by personal delivery
or certified mail on the person subject to the local agency's discharge
requirements, and shall inform the person served that a hearing shall
be conducted within sixty days after the person has been served. The
hearing shall be before a hearing officer designated by the governing
board of the city of Manteca. The person who has been issued an administrative
complaint may waive the right to a hearing, in which case the local
agency shall not conduct a hearing. A person dissatisfied with the
decision of the hearing officer may appeal to the governing board
of the local agency within thirty days of notice of the hearing officer's
decision.
If after the hearing, or appeal, if any, it is found that the
person has violated reporting or discharge requirements, the hearing
officer or board may assess a civil penalty against that person. In
determining the amount of the civil penalty, the hearing officer or
board may take into consideration all relevant circumstances, including,
but not limited to, the extent of harm caused by the violation, the
economic benefit derived through any noncompliance, the nature and
persistence of the violation, the length of time over which the violation
occurs and corrective action, if any, attempted or taken by the discharger.
Civil penalties may be imposed by the city of Manteca as follows:
i.
In an amount which shall not exceed two thousand dollars for each
day for failing or refusing to furnish technical or monitoring reports.
ii.
In an amount which shall not exceed three thousand dollars for each
day for failing or refusing to timely comply with any compliance schedule
established by the local agency.
iii.
In an amount which shall not exceed five thousand dollars per
violation for each day for discharges in violation of any waste discharge
limitation, permit condition, or requirement issued, reissued, or
adopted by the local agency.
iv.
In an amount which does not exceed ten dollars per gallon for discharges
in violation of any suspension, cease and desist order or other orders,
or prohibition issued, reissued, or adopted by the city of Manteca.
v.
The amount of any civil penalties imposed under this section which
have remained delinquent for a period of sixty days shall constitute
a lien against the real property of the discharger from which the
discharge originated resulting in the imposition of the civil penalty.
The lien provided herein shall have no force and effect until recorded
with the county recorder and when recorded shall have the force and
effect and priority of a judgment lien and continue for ten years
from the time of recording unless sooner released, and shall be renewable
in accordance with the provisions of Sections 683.110 to 683.220,
inclusive, of the Code of Civil Procedure.
|
All moneys collected under this section shall be deposited in
a special account of the city of Manteca and shall be made available
for the monitoring, treatment, and control of discharges into the
local agency's sanitation or sewer system or for other mitigation
measures.
|
|
Unless appealed, orders setting administrative civil penalties
shall become effective and final upon issuance thereof, and payment
shall be made within thirty days. Copies of these orders shall be
served by personal service or by registered mail upon the party served
with the administrative complaint and upon other persons who appeared
at the hearing and requested a copy.
|
|
The city of Manteca may, at its option, elect to petition the
Superior Court to confirm any order establishing civil penalties and
enter judgment in conformity therewith in accordance with the provisions
of Sections 1285 to 1287.6, inclusive, of the Code of Civil Procedure.
|
|
No penalties shall be recoverable under this section for any
violation for which civil liability is recovered under Section 54740.
|
B.
Costs for Enforcement Actions. All costs accrued by Manteca to undertake enforcement actions shall be paid by the user in violation. These costs include, but are not limited to, all fees described in subsection (A)(2) of this section, attorney's fees, and fees associated with termination of service. All such fees are payable to Manteca and are in addition to any costs accrued by member jurisdictions. All such fees are due and payable upon receipt of notice. Delinquent fees will result in delinquent charges and/or enforcement actions, as described in Section 13.20.050(F)(5) of this waste ordinance.
C.
Emergency
Powers. The director of public works or agent shall have full power
and authority to take any necessary precautions and measures to protect
the water pollution control system, POTW personnel, public, and the
environment from endangerment or threat of endangerment, or any condition
that is likely to result in a discharge which presents an imminent
hazard to the public health, safety, or welfare; or which, either
singly or by interaction with other discharges, is an imminent hazard
to the water pollution control system, places Manteca in violation
of its NPDES permit or any other California state or federal law or
permits. The available precautionary measures include suspension of
wastewater treatment and collection services and/or an industrial
discharge permit, issuance of a cease and desist order, and/or any
of the following: decontamination, sewer closure, packaging, diking,
and transportation of materials, in order to protect life or property,
or to prevent further damage to the environment of the water pollution
control system. In pursuit of such precautionary measures, Manteca
personnel or any agent of the city of Manteca shall have immediate
access to the premises. In addition, the director of public works
or agent shall have the authority to prohibit approach to the scene
of such an emergency any vehicle, vessel, or thing, and all persons
not specifically employed in the correction of the emergency condition
or the preservation of life or property in the vicinity thereof.
Any user receiving cease and desist order or requested to suspend
discharge to the water pollution control system from or by Manteca
shall immediately cease or suspend the discharge or contribution to
the water pollution control system. In the event a user fails to voluntarily
comply with the requirements of the cease and desist order or suspension
of service, the director of public works shall take such steps as
deemed necessary to halt the discharge or contribution, including
severance of the user's connection to the water pollution control
system, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW or endangerment
to the public, the POTW, or the environment.
In addition to any enforcement actions issued to the user, the
user shall submit a detailed written report of the emergency condition
to the director of public works within fifteen days of the occurrence.
The detailed report shall describe the cause(s) of the emergency event
or harmful contribution and the measures which have been taken to
prevent any future or repeated occurrence.
D.
Disclosure
of Information. All users are responsible for notifying Manteca of
known violations of this waste ordinance and/or the industrial discharge
permit when they occur. In the event of a spill, accidental discharge,
bypass of the pretreatment system, or the imminent danger of same,
which may endanger the health or safety of Manteca staff, the public,
or the environment is present, the user must immediately notify the
Manteca director of public works or agent by a phone call or in person.
Dischargers must also notify Manteca of any changes to their operations
which may change the quantity or quality of their discharge, prior
to the change. Failure to notify Manteca of a violation, spill, bypass
or accidental discharge is a violation of this waste ordinance.
(Ord. 1576 § 2, 2016)
A.

that do not reach waters of the United States; and
Wastewater backups into buildings and on private property that
are caused by blockages or flow conditions within the publicly owned
portion of a sanitary sewer system.
means fats, oils, and grease that can be collected following
use and prior to discharge to the sewer or interceptor. Waste grease
is collected from pans, deep fat fryers and cooking grills.
D.
Grease
Interceptor/Trap Required.
1.
Grease
interceptors and/or traps shall be provided by the facility owner,
when, in the opinion of the city, they are necessary to prevent grease
in excessive amounts from entering the sanitary sewer system. All
interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the city
building division and shall be located as to be easily and safely
accessible for cleaning and inspection. All prospective grease trap
users must provide manufacturer's capacity data and an estimate of
the product rate at the facility that is within the capacity of the
grease trap to be approved by the building permit department.
2.
Existing
Facilities. For the purposes of sizing and installation of grease
interceptors/traps, all food service facilities existing within the
city's sewer system service area, whether within, or without, the
city limits, prior to the effective date of the ordinance codified
in this chapter shall be allowed to operate and maintain existing
grease interceptors/traps provided their grease interceptors or grease
traps are in efficient operating conditions.
On or after the effective date of the ordinance codified in
this chapter, the city may require an existing food service facility
to install, operate, and maintain a new grease interceptor or trap
that complies with the requirements of this chapter or to modify,
repair, or replace any noncompliant interceptor or trap within ninety
days of written notification by the city when any one or more of the
following conditions exist:
a.
The facility is found to be contributing grease and oil in quantities
sufficient to cause line stoppages or necessitates increased maintenance
on the wastewater collection system.
b.
The facility does not have a grease interceptor or trap.
c.
The facility has an undersized, nonrepairable or defective grease
interceptor or trap.
d.
Remodeling of the food preparation or kitchen waste plumbing system
is performed which requires a building permit to be issued by the
city.
e.
The existing facility is sold or undergoes a change of ownership.
f.
The existing facility does not have plumbing connections to a grease
interceptor or trap in compliance with the requirements of this chapter,
or current building codes.
3.
New
Facilities or New Interceptor Installations. Grease interceptors or
traps shall be located in the food service establishment's lateral
sewer line between all fixtures which may introduce grease into the
sewer system and the connection to the city's wastewater collections
system. If dishwashers are connected to the grease interceptor, the
interceptor must be properly designed to contain and cool the dishwasher
discharge to prevent the hot water from causing carry through of the
grease. Garbage disposals and restrooms should not be plumbed to the
grease interceptor. Automatic hood washers, floor drains in food preparation
and storage areas should be plumbed to the grease interceptor. Sanitary
facilities (restrooms) shall not be plumbed to the grease interceptor
under any circumstance.
4.
The
use of a grease trap, in place of a grease interceptor will only be
authorized for those facilities that do not operate a deep fat fryer,
a cooking grill and conducts minimal dishwashing.
E.
Maintenance
of Grease Interceptor/Trap Required.
1.
All
grease interceptors and grease traps shall be continuously maintained
in satisfactory and effective operational condition by the discharger
at the discharger's expense. Typically maintenance consists of the
removal of floatable solids and settleable solids collected in the
grease interceptor/trap; and the cleaning of the walls and piping.
2.
Routine
Maintenance Schedules. The discharger is responsible for establishing
a routine maintenance schedule that includes the routine removal of
floatable and settleable solids and cleaning of the interceptors/traps.
The maintenance frequency should be such that the interceptor/trap
does not allow fats, grease, oils, and food solids from leaving the
interceptor and entering the city sewer collection system. The amount
of time between pumping and cleaning services is dependent on the
volume of wastes discharged, the volume of the interceptor/trap, and
the physical integrity of the interceptor/trap structures and piping.
It is the discharger's responsibility that the interceptors/traps
are routinely inspected and repaired as needed.
3.
Record
Keeping Requirements. The discharger is responsible for maintaining
appropriate maintenance records that documents the routine pumping,
cleaning, and repairs made to interceptors and traps. Where the discharger
hires a grease trap service company to clean the interceptor/trap
and remove and dispose of the accumulated grease and solids, a copy
of the pumping manifest or billing must be retained with the maintenance
records. All maintenance records should include at a minimum the following
information:
a.
Name of facility;
b.
Date service performed;
c.
Total volume of the interceptor/trap;
d.
Total volume of material removed from the interceptor/trap;
e.
List of all deficiencies identified from an inspection of the empty
interceptor/trap;
f.
Name of the grease trap service company;
g.
Address of the grease trap service company;
h.
Name and address of final disposal site;
i.
Signature of the grease trap service company employee performing
the work; and
j.
Signature of the discharger's employee observing and accepting the
services.
4.
Record
Retention. All grease interceptor/trap maintenance records shall be
retained for a period of not less than three years. These records
shall be retained at the food service establishment and shall be made
available for inspection by the city.
F.
Disposal
of Wastes from Interceptors and Traps. Storage, handling, transportation
and disposal of all wastes from interceptors/traps shall be performed
in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local regulations
that pertain to the type and/or class of waste. Materials removed
from waste interceptors/traps must be disposed of at legally designated
locations for those specific type wastes. Materials removed from waste
interceptors/traps shall not be discharged to the city sanitary sewers
or storm drains.
G.
Collection,
Storage, and Disposal of Waste Grease and Solids. Dischargers are
encouraged to collect excess oil and grease from deep fat fryers,
pots and pans prior to washing. This waste grease and oil should be
collected and stored in appropriate containers that are appropriately
labeled. The collected waste grease and oil should be collected by
a waste grease service company for disposal. In no case shall the
discharger dispose of deep fat fryer oils and other collected waste
greases and oils by discharge to the grease interceptor/trap to the
city sewer system.
H.
Clean-Up
of Spilled Grease and Oil. The discharger shall clean up all spilled
grease and oil using appropriate tools, including a mop and bucket.
Bucket contents may be discharged to the grease interceptor/trap,
and solid greases and oils that can be manually picked up should be
held in the waste grease collection containers for final disposal.
In no instance shall spilled grease and oils be washed to the stormwater
drains. In the event that the city is required to clean up a grease
and oil spill generated by a discharger, the city is authorized to
assess cost recovery fees to the discharger for all costs associated
with the clean-up.
I.
Use
of Chemicals and Other Additives. The use of chemicals, emulsifying
agents, enzymes, microorganisms, and/or other additives that are added
to the grease interceptors/traps to reduce or eliminate the pumping
and cleaning of the interceptor/trap is prohibited. Dischargers currently
using a chemical or other additive must halt such use immediately
on the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter.
J.
Right
of Access. The city, employees of the city, or authorized agents of
the city, have the authority to enter the property of the discharger
to conduct inspections of the entire facility, including the interceptors,
traps, cooking and storage areas, restrooms, offices, service areas,
and other areas of the facility. The city is also authorized to collect
samples of any wastestream, including the discharge from the facility
and the interceptors and traps. The city may obtain search warrants
for inspection and sampling purposes. Failure to grant access may
result in the suspension of sewer and water services provided by the
city.
K.
Enforcement.
Failure to comply with the provisions of this chapter is considered
a misdemeanor and subject to enforcement actions under the city codes.
In addition to these misdemeanor enforcement actions, the city is
authorized to take the following actions to achieve compliance to
the city chapter.
1.
Mandatory
Interceptor/Trap Service. The city may issue an order requiring the
discharger to conduct interceptor/trap maintenance services within
a mandatory time period. The cost of the services shall be the direct
responsibility of the discharger.
2.
Mandatory
Interceptor/Trap Service Schedule. The city may impose a mandatory
pumping and cleaning schedule to assure the proper maintenance of
an interceptor not properly maintained by the discharger. The cost
of the services shall be the direct responsibility of the discharger.
Mandatory service schedules may cover a time period of up to three
years.
3.
Cost
Recovery. The city may assess the discharger the amount of those expenditures
made by the city to clean up or prevent sewer blockages and overflows
caused by the discharge from a food service establishment.
4.
Administrative Fines. Administrative fines shall be conducted in accordance with Section 13.20.090, Enforcement, of this industrial waste ordinance.
a.
Unpaid charges, fines, and penalties shall, after sixty calendar
days, be assessed an additional penalty of twenty-five percent of
the unpaid balance, and interest shall accrue thereafter at a rate
of one percent per month. A lien against the user's property will
be sought for unpaid charges, fines and penalties.
b.
Users desiring to dispute such fines must file a written request
for the city to reconsider the fine along with full payment of the
fine amount within thirty days of being notified of the fine. Where
a request is made, the city may convene a hearing on the matter before
a hearing officer. In the event the user's appeal is successful, the
payment, together with any interest accruing thereto, shall be returned
to the user. The city may add the cost of preparing administrative
enforcement actions, such as notices and orders, to the fine.
c.
Issuance of an administrative fine shall not be a bar against, or
a prerequisite for, taking any other action against the user.
d.
Wastewater Discharge Permit Issuance. The city may issue wastewater
discharge permits to food service establishments either on a case-by-case
basis or as part of a general program. The authority and requirements
established by this industrial waste ordinance shall apply to all
such wastewater discharge permits issued under this section.
5.
Emergency
Suspensions. The city may immediately suspend a discharge and/or water
services, after informal notice to the discharger, whenever such suspension
is necessary to stop an actual or threatened discharge which reasonably
appears to present or cause an imminent or substantial endangerment
to the health or welfare of persons or property.
L.
FOG
Disposal at Water Quality Control Facility (WQCF).
1.
The
director or designee may establish minimum standards for FOG which
shall be met prior to discharge of any FOG to the WQCF. Vendors failing
to meet established standards are prohibited from discharging to the
WQCF for a minimum of two years, or until they have demonstrated to
the satisfaction of the director that they have mitigated causes which
led to initial failure to meet minimum standards.
2.
The
following charges and fees are required to be paid for the delivery
and discharge of FOG to WQCF's FOG receiving station. For each load
delivered to the receiving station the charge is one hundred dollars
per thousand gallons or part thereof for FOG collected in Manteca
and one hundred twenty five dollars per thousand gallons or part thereof
for all others.
