(A) The installation of a monitoring facility shall be required for all industrial users having wastes which receive pretreatment, are otherwise altered or regulated before discharge, or are unusually strong and thereby subject to a surcharge. Monitoring facility shall be a manhole or other suitable facility approved by the Superintendent.
(B) When, in the judgment of the Mayor, there is a significant difference in wastewater constituents and characteristics produced by different operations of a single user the Mayor may require that separate monitoring facilities be installed for each separate source of discharge.
(C) Monitoring facilities that are required to be installed shall be constructed and maintained at the user's expense. The purpose of the facility is to enable inspection, sampling, and flow measurement of the wastewater produced by a user. If sampling or metering equipment is also required by the City, it shall be provided and installed at the user's expense.
(D) The monitoring facility will normally be required to be on the user's premises outside of the building. The Superintendent may, however, when such a location would be impractical or cause undue hardship on the user, allow the facility to be constructed in the public street right-of-way with the approval of the public agency having jurisdiction of that right-of-way and located so that it will not be obstructed by landscaping or parked vehicles.
(E) There shall be ample room in or near such sampling manhole or facility to allow accurate sampling and preparation of samples for analysis. The facility, sampling, and measuring equipment shall be maintained at all times in a safe and proper operating condition at the expense of the user.
(F) Whether constructed on public or private property, the monitoring facilities shall be constructed in accordance with the Superintendent's requirements and all applicable local agency construction standards and specifications. Construction must be completed within one hundred and eighty (180) days following written notification unless an extension is granted by the Mayor.
