(A) The manager will initially rely on the Federal Categorical Pretreatment Standards of § 51.021 to protect wastewater facilities or receiving waters; however, if any wastewater that contains substances or characteristics shown to have deleterious effect on the wastewater facilities, processes, equipment, or receiving waters, or that constitutes a public nuisance or hazard is discharged or proposed for discharge to the wastewater sewers, the manager may:
(1) Require pretreatment to a condition acceptable for discharge to the wastewater sewers;
(2) Require control over the quantities and rates of discharges;
(3) Require payment to cover added cost of handling and treating the wastewaters not covered by existing fees and charges;
(4) Require the development of compliance schedules to meet any applicable treatment requirements;
(5) Require the submission of reports necessary to ensure compliance with applicable pretreatment requirements;
(6) Carry out all inspection, surveillance, and monitoring necessary to determine compliance with applicable pretreatment requirements;
(7) Obtain remedies for noncompliance by any user. The remedies may include injunctive relief, the civil penalties specified in this chapter, or appropriate criminal penalties; or
(8) Reject the wastewater if scientific evidence indicates the discharge will create unreasonable hazards or have unreasonable deleterious effects on the wastewater facilities.
(B) When considering the above alternatives, the manager shall ensure that conditions of the district's NPDES permit are met. The manager also shall consider the cost effectiveness and the economic impact of the alternatives on the discharger. If the manager allows the pretreatment or equalization of wastewater flows, the installation of necessary facilities shall be subject to review. The manager shall review and recommend any appropriate changes to the program, within 30 days of submittal.
(C) Where pretreatment or flow-equalizing facilities are provided or required for any wastewater, they shall be maintained continuously in satisfactory and effective operation at the owner's expense.
