A wastewater discharge permit shall include such conditions as are deemed reasonably necessary by the Pretreatment Coordinator to prevent pass through or interference, protect the quality of the water body receiving the treatment work's effluent, protect worker health and safety, facilitate bio-solids management and disposal, and protect against damage to the POTW.
(A) Individual and general wastewater discharge permits must contain:
(1) A statement that indicates wastewater discharge permit issuance date, expiration date and effective date;
(2) A statement that the wastewater discharge permit is nontransferable without prior notification to the village in accordance with § 13-9-5, and provisions for furnishing the new owner or operator with a copy of the existing wastewater discharge permit;
(3) Effluent limits, including best management practices, based on applicable pretreatment standards;
(4) Requirements to control slug discharge, in addition to spill control, if determined by the Pretreatment Coordinator to be necessary;
(5) Self-monitoring, sampling, reporting, notification, and record-keeping requirements. These requirements shall include an identification of pollutants or BMPs to be monitored, sampling location, sampling frequency, and sample type based on federal, state, and local law; and
(6) A statement of applicable civil and criminal penalties for violation of pretreatment standards and requirements, and any applicable compliance schedule. Such schedule may not extend the time for compliance beyond that required by applicable federal, state, or local law.
(B) An individual wastewater discharge permit may contain the process for seeking a waiver from monitoring for a pollutant neither present nor expected to be present in the discharge in accordance with § 13-8-5(D). Any grant of the monitoring waiver by the Pretreatment Coordinator shall be included as a condition of the user's permit.
(C) Individual and general wastewater discharge permits may contain, but need not be limited to, the following conditions:
(1) Limits on the average and/or maximum rate of discharge, time of discharge, and/or requirements for flow regulation and equalization;
(2) Requirements for the installation of pretreatment technology, pollution control, or construction of appropriate containment devices, designed to equalize, reduce, eliminate, or prevent the introduction of pollutants into the treatment works;
(3) Requirements that allow the use of bypass of the pretreatment system conditions consistent with 40 CFR 403.17 and § 13-17-2;
(4) Requirements for the development and implementation of Spill Prevention Containment and Countermeasures/Slug Control Plan or other special conditions including management practices necessary to adequately prevent accidental, unanticipated, or non-routine discharges;
(5) Development and implementation of waste minimization plans to reduce the amount of pollutants discharged to the POTW;
(6) Development and implementation of best management practices plans to reduce the amount of pollutants discharged to the POTW if the categorical standards do not already require the implementation of a best management practices plan;
(7) The unit charge and/or schedule of surcharge fees for the management of the wastewater discharged to the POTW;
(8) Requirements for installation and maintenance of inspection and sampling facilities and equipment;
(9) Requirements for the zero discharge of process waste regulated by a National Categorical Pretreatment Standard or local standard;
(10) Documentation of any monitoring waiver approved by the Pretreatment Coordinator for categorically regulated pollutants found to be not present and requirements to re-institute monitoring in the event that a waived pollutant is found to be present or is expected to be present because of changes that occur in the user's operation;
(11) A statement that compliance with the wastewater discharge permit does not relieve the permittee of responsibility for compliance with all applicable federal and state pretreatment standards, including those which become effective during the term of the wastewater discharge permit; and
(12) Other conditions as deemed appropriate by the Pretreatment Coordinator to ensure compliance with this chapter, and state and federal laws, rules, and regulations.
