§ 13.04.730. Slug discharge prevention.

The POTW will determine whether an IU needs to control slug discharges and will require the development of a compliance schedule by each industrial user for the installation of technology required to meet applicable pretreatment standards and requirements and the submission of all notices and selfmonitoring reports from industrial users as are necessary to assess and assure compliance by industrial users with pretreatment standards and requirements, including, but not limited to, the reports required in 40 CFR 403.12.

A.

The POTW shall carry out all inspection, surveillance and monitoring procedures necessary to determine, independent of information supplied by industrial users, compliance or noncompliance with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements by industrial users. Representatives of the POTW shall be authorized to enter any premises of any industrial user in which a discharge source or treatment system is located or in which records are required to be kept under 40 CFR 403.12(o) to assure compliance with pretreatment standards. Such authority shall be at least as extensive as the authority provided under section 308 of the Act;

B.

Obtain remedies for noncompliance by any industrial user with any pretreatment standard and requirement. All POTWs shall be able to seek injunctive relief for noncompliance by industrial users with pretreatment standards and requirements. All POTWs shall also have authority to seek or assess civil or criminal penalties in at least the amount of one thousand dollars a day for each violation by industrial users of pretreatment standards and requirements.
