The Superintendent shall have the right to enter
the premises of any user to determine whether the user is complying
with all requirements of this Part 2 and any wastewater discharge
permit or order issued hereunder. Users shall allow the Superintendent
ready access to all parts of the premises for the purposes of inspection,
sampling, records examination and copying, and the performance of
any additional duties.
A.
Where a user has security measures in force which
require proper identification and clearance before entry into its
premises, the user shall make necessary arrangements with its security
guards so that, upon presentation of suitable identification, the
Superintendent will be permitted to enter without delay for the purposes
of performing specific responsibilities.
B.
The Superintendent shall have the right to set up
on the user's property, or require installation of, such devices as
are necessary to conduct sampling and/or metering of the user's operations.
C.
The Superintendent may require the user to install
monitoring equipment as necessary. The facility's sampling and monitoring
equipment shall be maintained at all times in a safe and proper operating
condition by the user at its own expense. All devices used to measure
wastewater flow and quality shall be calibrated semiannually to ensure
their accuracy. The user must provide a copy of the certificate of
calibration to the Superintendent.
D.
Any temporary or permanent obstruction to safe and
easy access to the facility to be inspected and/or sampled shall be
promptly removed by the user at the written or verbal request of the
Superintendent and shall not be replaced. The costs of clearing such
access shall be borne by the user.
E.
Unreasonable delays in allowing the Superintendent
access to the user's premises shall be a violation of this Part 2.
