A. Required; Content:
1. Any user that is discharging more than fifteen kilograms (15 kg) of hazardous wastes as defined in 40 CFR 261 (listed or characteristic wastes) in a calendar month or any facility discharging any amount of acutely hazardous wastes, as specified in 40 CFR 261.30(d) and 261.33(e) is required to provide a one-time notification in writing to the City, EPA Regional Waste Management Division Director, and Idaho Division of Environmental Quality. Any existing user exempt from this notification, shall comply with the requirements contained herein within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of a discharge of fifteen kilograms (15 kg) of hazardous wastes in a calendar month or the discharge of acutely hazardous wastes to the City sewer system. Such notification shall include:
a. The name of the hazardous waste as set forth in 40 CFR part 261;
b. The EPA hazardous waste number; and
c. The type of discharge (continuous, batch, or other).
2. If an industrial user discharges more than one hundred kilograms (100 kg) of such waste per calendar month to the sewer system, the notification shall also contain the following information to the extent it is known or readily available to the industrial user:
a. An identification of the hazardous constituents contained in the wastes;
b. An estimation of the mass and concentration of such constituents in the wastestreams discharged during that calendar month; and
c. An estimation of the mass of constituents in the wastestreams expected to be discharged during the following twelve (12) months.
B. Exception For Self-Monitoring: These notification requirements do not apply to pollutants already reported under the self-monitoring requirements. Whenever the EPA publishes final rules identifying additional hazardous wastes or new characteristics of hazardous waste, a user shall notify the City of the discharge of such a substance within ninety (90) days of the effective date of such regulations. In the case of any notification made pursuant to this section, an industrial user shall certify that it has a program in place to reduce the volume and toxicity of hazardous wastes generated to the degree it has determined to be economically practical.
