Users shall provide necessary wastewater treatment as required to comply with all applicable pretreatment standards and requirements within the time limitations specified by applicable law or regulation, and as required to comply with the requirements of a user permit or order issued pursuant to this chapter. All facilities required to pretreat wastewater shall be provided, operated, and maintained at the user’s sole expense. Detailed, professionally signed and sealed plans showing the pretreatment facilities, specifications, and operating procedures shall be submitted to the POTW for review and approval prior to construction. The POTW may approve, approve with conditions, or disapprove the plans, specifications, and operating procedures. A user shall not begin discharging from the treatment facilities until facilities have been approved and all conditions and requirements of the approval have been met as determined by the POTW. The review and approval by the POTW of such plans and operating procedures does not in any way relieve the user from the responsibility of modifying the facility as necessary to produce an effluent acceptable to the POTW under the provisions of this chapter. Any subsequent changes in the pretreatment facilities or method of operation shall be reported to and be approved by the POTW prior to the user’s initiation of the changes. (Users shall notify the POTW regarding the installation of new pretreatment facilities or modification of existing facilities as provided by § 53.142.)
