(B) The objectives of this division are to:
(1) Control or prevent the introduction of pollutants into the municipal wastewater system which will interfere with the normal operation of the system or contaminate the resulting municipal sludge;
(2) Control or prevent the introduction of pollutants into the municipal wastewater system which do not receive adequate treatment in the POTW and which will pass through the system into receiving waters or the atmosphere or otherwise be incompatible with the system;
(3) Improve the opportunity to recycle and reclaim wastewater and sludge from the system;
(4) Control or prevent discharges or potential discharges (storage of materials) to systems or areas under the jurisdiction of this city that may impair the environment.
(C) The city will be responsible for the monitoring of the pretreatment program, unless the industrial user has written permission from the city to perform its own monitoring. If the city performs the monitoring, it has the right to demand reimbursement of all labor, maintenance and lab fees associated with the monitoring period. If the industrial user has written permission to perform its own monitoring, the industrial user must notify the POTW within 24 hours of a violation. It is also required that the industrial user resample and resubmit the results within 30 days to the POTW.
