§ 51.141  EMERGENCY SUSPENSIONS.
   (A)   The Superintendent may suspend the wastewater treatment service and/or wastewater permit of an industrial user whenever such suspension is necessary in order to stop an actual or threatened discharge presenting or causing an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons, the POTW, or the environment.
   (B)   Any user notified of a suspension of the wastewater treatment service and/or the wastewater permit shall immediately stop or eliminate its contribution.  In the event of a user's failure to immediately comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the Superintendent shall take such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW, its receiving stream, or endangerment to any individuals.  The Superintendent shall allow the user to recommence its discharge when the endangerment has passed, unless the termination proceedings set forth in § 51.142 have been initiated.
   (C)   An industrial user which is responsible, in whole or in part, for imminent endangerment shall submit a detailed written statement describing the causes of the harmful contribution and the measures taken to prevent any future occurrence to the Superintendent prior to the date of the hearing described in division (B) above.
