As a means of determining compliance with this
chapter, with applicable SPDES permit conditions, and with applicable
state and federal law, each industrial user shall be required to notify
the Town Board of any new or existing discharges to the POTW by submitting
a completed Industrial Chemical Survey (ICS) form and a completed
Industrial Wastewater Survey (IWS) form. The Town Board may require
any user discharging wastewater into the POTW to file wastewater discharge
reports and to supplement such reports as the Town Board deems necessary.
All information shall be furnished by the user in complete cooperation
with the Town Board.
The Town Board shall, from time to time, notify
each industrial user of applicable pretreatment standards, and of
other applicable requirements under Section 204(B) and Section 405
of the Clean Water Act, and Subtitles C and D of RCRA.
No person shall cause the discharge of slugs
to the POTW. Each person discharging, into the POTW, greater than
5% of the average daily flow in the POTW, shall install and maintain,
on his property and at his expense, a suitable storage and flow control
facility to insure equalization of flow over a twenty-four-hour period.
The facility shall have a capacity for at least 50% of the daily discharge
volume and shall be equipped with alarms and a rate of discharge controller,
the regulation of which shall be directed by the Town Board. A wastewater
discharge permit may be issued solely for flow equalization.
Preliminary treatment, and flow equalization
facilities, or monitoring stations, if provided for any wastewater,
shall be constructed and maintained continuously clean, safe, and
continuously operational by the owner at his expense. Where an industrial
user has such treatment, equalization, or monitoring facilities at
the time this chapter is enacted, the Town Board may approve or disapprove
the adequacy of such facilities. Where the Town Board disapproves
of such facilities and construction of new or upgraded facilities
for treatment, equalization, or monitoring are required, plans and
specifications for such facilities shall be prepared by a licensed
professional engineer and submitted to the Town Board. Construction
of new or upgraded facilities shall not commence until written approval
of the Town Board has been obtained.
No unauthorized person shall negligently break,
damage, destroy, uncover, deface, tamper with, prevent access, or
render inaccurate, or cause or permit the negligent breaking, damaging,
destroying, uncovering, defacing, tampering with, preventing access,
or rendering inaccurate to:
A. Any structure, appurtenance, or equipment which is
a part of the Town POTW; or
B. Any measuring, sampling, and/or testing device or
mechanism installed pursuant to any requirement under this chapter
except as approved by the Town Board.
In order that the industrial user's employees
be informed of the Town requirements, a notice shall be permanently
posted on appropriate bulletin boards within the user's facility advising
employees of the Town requirements and whom to call in case of an
accidental discharge in violation of this chapter.
When so requested in advance by an industrial
user, and when taking a sample of industrial wastewater, the Town
representative(s) shall gather sufficient volume of sample so that
the sample can be split into two nearly equal volumes, each of a size
adequate for the anticipated analytical protocols, including any quality
control (QC) procedures. One of the portions shall be given to the
representative of the industrial user whose wastewater was sampled,
and the other portion shall be retained by the Town for its own analysis.
