When requested by the Commissioners, all industrial users must submit information on the nature and characteristics of their wastewater by completing a wastewater survey prior to commencing their discharge. The Commissioners are authorized to prepare a form for this purpose and may periodically require industrial users to update the survey. Failure to complete this survey shall be reasonable ground for terminating service to the industrial user and shall be considered a violation of this Part
2.
Any significant industrial user which discharges industrial waste into the POTW prior to the effective date of this Part
2 and who wishes to continue such discharges in the future shall, within thirty (30) days after said date, apply to the town for a wastewater discharge permit in accordance with §
190-34 below and shall not cause or allow discharges to the POTW to continue after ninety (90) days of the effective date of this Part
2, except in accordance with a wastewater discharge permit issued by the Commissioners.
Any significant industrial user proposing to
begin or recommence discharging industrial wastes into the POTW must
obtain a wastewater discharge permit prior to the beginning or recommencing
of such discharge. An application for this wastewater discharge permit
must be filed at least ninety (90) days prior to the date upon which
any discharge will begin.
All wastewater discharge permit applications
and industrial user reports must contain the following certification
statement and be signed by an authorized representative of the industrial
user:
"I certify under penalty of law that this document
and all attachments were prepared under my direction or supervision
in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualified personnel
properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on my
inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or those persons
directly responsible for gathering the information, the information
submitted is to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate
and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for
submitting false information, including the possibility of fine and
imprisonment for knowing violations."

The Commissioners will evaluate the data furnished
by the industrial user and may require additional information. Within
45 days of receipt of a complete wastewater discharge permit application,
the Commissioners will determine whether or not to issue a wastewater
discharge permit. If no determination is made within this time period,
the application will be deemed denied. The Commissioners may deny
any application for a wastewater discharge permit.
