The Town may require an industrial user to install and operate an industrial wastewater pretreatment system to treat industrial flows prior to discharge to the Town sewerage system when it is necessary to measure, sample, restrict or prevent the discharge to the sewer of certain waste constituents, to more equally distribute peak discharges of industrial wastewater or to accomplish any pretreatment results required by the Town or other appropriate regulatory agency. All pretreatment systems shall be subject to the approval of the Town. Approval by the Town does not constitute a waiver of compliance with these regulations or other appropriate regulations, ordinances and codes.
Each user shall incorporate measures to prevent or control accidental discharges of substances and wastewater prohibited or limited by the requirements of this chapter. These measures shall include facilities and operating procedures as necessary to prevent the entrance of accidental spills into the POTW. When required by the Town, detailed plans describing these facilities and procedures shall be submitted to the Town Engineer for review and shall be approved by the Town before construction of these facilities. No user who commences contribution to the POTW after the effective date of this chapter shall be permitted to discharge into the system until accidental discharge procedures have been approved by the Town.
Where pretreatment facilities are required and provided for wastes, these facilities shall be maintained continuously and operated in a satisfactory and effective manner by the industrial user at his expense.
A. 
Grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be provided when, in the opinion of the Code Enforcement Officer or his designee, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing grease in excessive amounts of any flammable wastes, sand and other harmful ingredients. All interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the Code Enforcement Officer or his designee and shall be so located as to be readily and easily accessible for cleaning, and inspection.
B. 
Grease and oil interceptors shall be constructed of impervious materials capable of withstanding abrupt and extreme changes in temperature. They shall be of substantial construction, watertight and equipped with easily removable covers which, when bolted in place, shall be gastight and watertight.
Where installed, all grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be maintained by the owner at his expense in continuously efficient operation at all times.
If an industrial user is required to install and operate a pretreatment or control system for the purposes identified in Article VII, §§ 97-35 and 97-36 above, the industrial user shall develop and submit a compliance schedule to define the shortest schedule by which the user will provide such pretreatment or operation and maintenance. The following conditions shall apply to this schedule:
A. 
The schedule shall contain increments of progress in the form of dates for the commencement and completion of major events leading to the construction and operation of pretreatment required for the user to comply with the objectives stated in § 97-35. These shall include hiring an engineer, completing preliminary plans, completing final plans, executing contract(s) for major components, commencing construction, completing construction, etc.
B. 
No increment referred to in Subsection A shall exceed nine months.
C. 
Not later than 14 days following each milestone date in the schedule and the final date for compliance, the user shall submit a progress report to the Town Engineer, including, as a minimum, whether or not it complied with the increment of progress to be met on such date and, if not, the date on which it expects to comply with this increment of progress, the reason for delay and the steps being taken by the user to bring the construction back into compliance with the schedule. In no event shall more than nine months elapse between such progress reports.
