(A) Voluntary user program—user initiated. Should a user present to the village, at any time prior to being required to do so by the village, information, data, plans, schedules, and the like relating to a proposed procedure for the prevention of discharges in violation of the provisions of this chapter, the village may receive such material and initiate procedures for the preparation of a compliance directive relating to that user without the need for review and standards meetings. Neither the presentation of material to the village nor the acceptance of such material by the village nor the commencement of procedures for the issuance of a compliance directive shall prevent the village from issuing any notice of violation nor does it exempt any user from the provisions of this chapter.
(B) Voluntary program—village initiated.
(1) The following voluntary proceedings between the village and a user whose wastewater has been shown to violate the user's wastewater discharge permit or any provisions of §§53.021 through 53.023 may be followed by the village in an effort to assist the user and to ensure compliance with this chapter short of court action. The proceedings outlined in this section are voluntary and are not to be construed as conditions precedent for the village using any of the remedies set forth in this chapter, or by law.
(2) Should analysis by the village indicate that the limitations or discharge have been exceeded in the discharge of a user, a violation is presumed to have occurred. The village shall notify the user, in writing, (which writing is hereinafter called “Notice of Review”) as to the particulars of such presumed violation and set a time and place for a meeting (hereinafter called a “Review Meeting”) to be attended by representatives of the village and the user. The purpose of this meeting shall be to discuss and establish means of preventing violations of any of the limitation on discharge.
