A. 
A user charge system shall be employed to provide for the recovery of costs from all users of the Endicott POTW based on measured sewage flows or water consumption records, biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids and other pollutants for which definitive costs of treatment and/or disposal can be assigned. Surcharges shall be applied for biochemical oxygen demand and suspended solids concentrations which exceed normal sewage limits. Costs to be recovered by the user charge system shall include the operation and maintenance of the sewage treatment plant and intercepting system, as defined in the agreements between the Village of Endicott, Town of Union and Town of Vestal in addition to the pretreatment monitoring and enforcement program described in this chapter. Separate fee schedules shall be established for permit applications from industrial users.
B. 
The formulation of user charge rates will be determined for the POTW monitoring and enforcement group from operating data for the sewage treatment plant and intercepting sewers and the information obtained on each user of the system.
C. 
Debt service on capital expenditures and local sewer maintenance costs will not be included under the user charge cost recovery system.
A. 
Upon enactment of this chapter, every commercial business and industrial user, whether or not a significant industrial user, will be given six months to file for a waste discharge permit. A completed application shall contain the information that would be required to evaluate the industry's waste stream in the ease of the industry. In the case of a commercial business or other nonresidential, nonindustrial user, the information required will address substances of concern as defined by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The forms for which the application is required shall contain all references to listed substances of concern or, in the ease of industries, the contents of the waste stream as defined under the Environmental Conservation Law of the State of New York and by the time of the application. Based on information presented in the completed application, the monitoring and enforcement group will decide whether or not:
(1) 
Discharges are subject to a surcharge.
(2) 
Discharges require pretreatment.
(3) 
Discharges may be self-monitored.
(4) 
Further waste discharge investigation is necessary.
(5) 
Permits will require renewal annually.
B. 
Applicants for an industrial/commercial wastewater discharge permit shall complete a prescribed form available at the Village of Endicott Department of Public Works office. The application will be approved if the applicant has complied with all applicable requirements of this chapter.
A. 
Users required to file for a waste discharge permit shall complete and file an application with the Village of Endicott Superintendent of Public Works for each connection to the public sewer system from the user's facilities, in the ease of significant industrial users. For the purposes of this section, a significant industrial user includes:
(1) 
All industries subject to promulgated categorical pretreatment standards.
(2) 
Industries having substantial impact, either singly or in combination with other contributing industries, on the operation of the treatment works.
(3) 
Manufacturing industries using, on an annual basis, more than 10,000 pounds or 1,000 gallons of raw material containing priority pollutants/substances of concern and discharging immeasurable amounts of these pollutants to the sewer system from the process using these pollutants.
(4) 
Those industries discharging more than 5% of the flow or load carried by the treatment plant receiving the waste.
B. 
No fee shall be charged to any nonresidential commercial business user who does not qualify as a significant industrial user as herein defined.
Should pretreatment or other operational controls be determined as necessary by the monitoring and enforcement group in order to comply with the provisions of this chapter or USEPA National Categorical Standards as they are promulgated, a waste discharge permit may be issued conditionally providing sufficient time for the user to commence proceedings for the design, construction and approval of suitable pretreatment facilities or other operational controls meeting the prescribed standards. Such conditional permit shall require renewal every six months wherein satisfactory progress on the implementation of the facility's construction shall be demonstrated. Where progress is unsatisfactory to the Village of Endicott Superintendent of Public Works, he may delay issuance of a renewal permit until satisfactory progress is demonstrated. Each day the user discharges wastes without a valid permit constitutes a violation of this chapter.
Within six months of the promulgation of a National Categorical Pretreatment Standard, the discharge permits of users subject to such standard shall be revised to comply with the limits specified therein within the time frame set forth by such standard. Users shall have 90 days thereafter to submit new permit applications to the Village of Endicott Superintendent of Public Works, which shall include a report on the disposition of pollutants in their waste streams so affected and, if necessary, a schedule for the construction of pretreatment facilities or other operational controls for meeting the prescribed standards. Conditional permits may be issued as in § 200-64 above.
Discharge permits shall be expressly subject to all provisions of this chapter and all other applicable regulations, user charges, compliance schedules, reports and other conditions deemed appropriate by the Superintendent of Public Works.
Discharge permits shall require renewal annually. At least one month shall be allowed for processing and issuing renewal permits. All users required to have discharge permits shall have a valid permit in continuous effect at all times. Each day's lapse constitutes a separate violation of this chapter.
A. 
Discharge permits are issued to specific users for specific operations. Permits shall not be assigned, transferred or sold to a new owner, new user, a different premises or to a new or changed operation.
B. 
Each new owner shall be required to apply for a new discharge permit within 60 days of assuming ownership but prior to commencing waste discharges from an interrupted or modified operation.
A. 
Baseline report. Within 180 days after the effective date of a categorical pretreatment standard or 180 days after the final administrative decision made upon a category determination submission under 40 CFR 403.6(a)(4), whichever is later, existing industrial users subject to such categorical pretreatment standards and currently discharging to or scheduled to discharge to a POTW shall be required to submit to the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee a report which contains the information listed in Subsection A(1) through (8) below. Where reports containing this information already have been submitted in compliance with the requirement of 40 CFR 128.140(b)(1977), the industrial user will not be required to submit this information again. At least 90 days prior to commencement of discharge, new sources and sources that become industrial users subsequent to the promulgation of an applicable categorical standard shall be required to submit to the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee a report which contains the information listed in Subsection A(1) through (5) below as well as in Subsection A(7) below. New sources shall also be required to submit information on the method of pretreatment the source intends to use to meet applicable pretreatment standards.
(1) 
The name and address of the facility, including the name of the operator and owners.
(2) 
A list of any environmental control permits held by or for the facility.
(3)

(5) 
The results of sampling and analysis showing the nature and concentration in parts per million by weight (mg/l) (or mass units when required by the standard or the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee) of all regulated pollutants for each regulated process. The daily average and maximum shall be reported for each regulated pollutant. The time, date, place and method of sampling shall be indicated.
(6) 
For existing users, a statement shall be included by an authorized representative of the industrial user and certified by a registered professional engineer in the State of New York as to whether the National Categorical Pretreatment Standards or other pretreatment requirements are being met on a consistent basis and, if not, whether additional operation, maintenance or additional pretreatment or treatment is required to consistently meet the standards or requirements.
(7) 
For new users, a statement shall be included by an authorized representative of the industrial user and certified by a registered professional engineer in the State of New York that the user will meet all National Categorical Pretreatment Standards and other applicable pretreatment requirements on a consistent basis.
(8) 
For existing users that require increased operations and maintenance or which require additional treatment or pretreatment prior to discharge to the POTW, a compliance schedule shall be included. This compliance schedule shall contain increments of progress such as completion dates of major events leading to the construction and operation of the additional treatment or pretreatment facilities. No increment of the schedule is dependent on the prior approval of the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee.
B.

The user shall also repeat the sampling and analysis and submit the results of the repeat analysis to the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee within 30 days alter becoming aware of the violation..
(4) 
For all users, any additional reporting requirements specifically required by the wastewater discharge permit, this chapter or by the Superintendent of Public Works or his designee.
C. 
Baseline monitoring reports (BMIR's), ninety-day compliance reports, and periodic compliance reports from categorical industrial users and noncategorical SIUs must be signed by an appropriate official and contain the certification statement in 40 CFR 403.6(2)(2)(ii), which essentially attests to the integrity of the analytical data submitted.
All records relating to compliance with pretreatment standards shall be made available to officials of the EPA or the approval authority upon request. The confidentiality of user information and data submitted as necessary for any application, record, plan or other document required by this chapter shall be governed by the Freedom of Information Law (§§ 84 through 90 of the Public Officers Law of the State of New York) and by other applicable state or federal statutes and regulations. Any requests by a user to keep specific data and information confidential must be made in writing at the time of submission. Wastewater constituents and characteristics submitted to the Village shall be available to the public without restriction. When requested in writing by the person furnishing a report, those portions of a report which might disclose trade secrets or secret processes shall not be made available for inspection by the public.
