   (A)   In the case of any discharge, including but not limited to, accidental discharges, discharges of a non-routine, episodic nature, a non-customary batch discharge, or a slug load as defined in § 50.327 of this chapter, that may cause potential problems for the POTW, the contributor shall immediately telephone and notify the POTW Director of the incident. This notification shall include the location of the discharge, type of waste, concentration and volume, if known, and corrective actions taken by the contributor.
   (B)   Within five days following the discharge, the contributor shall, unless waived by the POTW Director, submit a detailed, written report, describing the causes of the discharge and the measures to be taken by the contributor to prevent similar future occurrences. The notification shall not relieve the contributor of any expense, loss, damage or other liability that may be incurred as a result of damage to the POTW, natural resources or any other damage to person or property; nor shall the notification relieve the contributor of any fines, penalties or other liability that may be imposed pursuant to this chapter.
   (C)   A notice shall be permanently posted on the contributor’s bulletin board or other prominent place, advising employees whom to call in the event of a discharge described in division (A) above. Employers shall ensure that all employees, who may cause such a discharge to occur, are advised of the emergency notification procedure.
   (D)   Each SIU is required to notify the POTW Director immediately of any changes at its facility affecting the potential for spills and other accidental discharge, discharge of a non-routine, episodic nature, a non-customary batch discharge, or a slug load as defined in § 50.327(B) of this chapter.
