(A) Baseline report. Within 90 days following the effective date for any applicable categorical pretreatment standard or prior to commencement of the introduction of wastewater into the POTW by a new significant industrial discharger, any significant industrial discharger subject to a categorical pretreatment standard shall submit to the Control Authority a report, indicating the nature and concentration of all prohibited or regulated substances contained in its discharge, and the average and maximum daily flow in gallons. The report from existing significant industrial dischargers shall state whether the applicable categorical pretreatment standards and pretreatment requirements are being met on a consistent basis, and if not, what additional O & M and/or pretreatment is necessary to bring the discharger into compliance with the applicable categorical pretreatment standards and pretreatment requirements. This statement shall be signed by an authorized representative of the discharger, and certified by a qualified professional.
(B) Compliance date report. Within 90 days following the date for final compliance by a significant industrial discharger with an applicable categorical pretreatment standard, or 90 days following commencement of the introduction of wastewater into the POTW by a new significant industrial discharger, any significant industrial discharger subject to a categorical pretreatment standard shall submit to the Control Authority a report indicating the nature and concentration of all prohibited or regulated substances contained in its discharge, and the average and maximum daily flow in gallons. The report shall state whether the applicable pretreatment standards and requirements are being met on a consistent basis and, if not, what additional O & M and/or pretreatment is necessary to bring the discharger into compliance with the applicable pretreatment standards and requirements. This statement shall be signed by an authorized representative of the discharger, and certified to by a qualified professional.
(C) Periodic compliance reports. Any significant industrial discharger subject to a categorical pretreatment standard or requested by the control authority shall submit to the control authority, during the months of June and December of each year, a report indicating the nature and concentration of prohibited and regulated substances in the effluent which are limited by the pretreatment standards or requirements. In addition, this report shall include a record of all measured or estimated average and maximum daily flows which, during the reporting period, exceeded the average daily flow specified in the discharger's permit. Flows shall be reported on the basis of actual measurement, provided however, where cost or feasibility considerations justify, the Control Authority may accept reports of average and maximum flows estimated by verifiable techniques. The Control Authority, taking into consideration such factors as local high or low flow rates, holidays, budget cycles, or other extenuating factors, may authorize the submission or said reports on months other than those specified above.
(D) Reports of significant industrial dischargers shall contain all results of sampling and analysis of the discharge, including the flow rate, the nature and concentration of the constituents, or the production and mass of the constituents, where required by the Control Authority. The frequency of monitoring by the discharger shall be as prescribed in the applicable categorical pretreatment standard or in this chapter or more frequently as specified by the Control Authority. Sampling shall be done in accordance with Standard Methods and 40 CFR, Part 136.
(E) The reporting requirements specified in this section as applicable to significant industrial dischargers who are subject to categorical pretreatment standards shall also apply to any other significant industrial discharger upon whom the Control Authority imposes such reporting requirements.
