§ 13-8-2 WASTEWATER DISCHARGE PERMIT AUTHORITY AND REQUIREMENTS.
   (A)   Individual wastewater discharge permit issued to significant industrial users (SIUs) which includes categorical industrial users (CIUs). No SIU, including any CIU, shall discharge wastewater to the POTW without first obtaining an individual wastewater discharge permit from the Pretreatment Coordinator except that a SIU, including any CIU, that has filed a timely application pursuant to this chapter may continue to discharge for the time period specified therein.    
   (B)   General wastewater discharge permit issued to SIU and CIU. At the discretion of the Pretreatment Coordinator, the village may use general wastewater discharge permits to control SIU or CIU discharges to the POTW if the following conditions are met:    
      (1)   Involve the same or substantially similar types of operations;
      (2)   Discharge the same types of waste;
      (3)   Require the same effluent limitations or best management practices;
      (4)   Require the same or similar monitoring and/or reporting requirements; and
      (5)   In the opinion of the Pretreatment Coordinator, are more appropriately controlled under a general permit than under individual wastewater discharge permits.
   (C)   Other wastewater discharge permits. The Pretreatment Coordinator may require other non-residential users to obtain either individual or general wastewater discharge permits as necessary to carry out the purposes of this chapter. The wastewater discharge permit will define that holders of permits issued under this section shall not be classified as significant industrial users. Non-residential users with wastewater discharge permits in this class may include but are not limited to:
      (1)   Any user that has been determined to be a non-significant categorical industrial user as defined in § 13-5-6;
      (2)   Any user that has been determined not to be a significant industrial user as defined in § 13-5-6 that the Pretreatment Coordinator requires to be regulated by wastewater discharge permit;   
      (3)   Any user subject to National Categorical Pretreatment Standards that opts not to discharge pollutants shall obtain a zero process wastewater discharge permit;
      (4)   Any user that is a non-categorical zero process wastewater discharger that the Pretreatment Coordinator determines shall be permitted;
      (5)   Non-significant regulated users (NSRU) as defined below:
         (a)   NSRU that discharge a process wastewater flow greater than or equal to 0.5% of the POTW's design dry-weather hydraulic capacity, or 5,000 gallons per day, whichever is smaller;
         (b)   NSRU that discharge more than or equal to 0.5% of the design dry-weather organic treatment capacity of the POTW;
         (c)   NSRU that discharge 0.5% of the maximum allowable headworks loading for any pollutant regulated by a local limit developed in accordance with § 13-6-2; or
         (d)   NSRU that intermittently discharge any individual batch or batches that would meet the criteria in divisions (C)(5)(a), (b), or (c) of this section when discharged or otherwise has the potential to discharge a slug load to the POTW;
      (6)   Non-residential users that have devices installed to remove oils, grease and sand;
      (7)   Non-residential users required to eliminate or control specified pollutants from their wastestream through the development and implementation of a Best Management Practice (BMP) Plan.
   (D)   Any violation of the terms and conditions of an individual or general wastewater discharge permit shall be deemed a violation of this chapter and subject the wastewater discharge permittee to the sanctions set out in Articles 14 through 16 of this chapter. Obtaining an individual or general wastewater discharge permit does not relieve a permittee of its obligation to comply with all federal and state pretreatment standards or requirements or with any other requirements of federal, state, and local law.
