The town, or its Engineer, has determined that the average total suspended solids (TSS) and five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) daily loadings for the average residential user are 200 ppm BOD and 250 ppm TSS. The town, or its Engineer, has assessed a surcharge rate for all non-residential users discharging wastes with BOD and TSS strengths greater than the average residential user. The surcharge will be sufficient to cover the costs of treating such users’ above normal strength wastes. Such users will pay an additional service charge of 2.4¢ per 1,000 gallons for each 25 ppm over 200 ppm of BOD and 1.2¢ per 1,000 gallons for each 25 ppm over 250 ppm TSS.
