(A) Where a single SSTS or group of SSTS under single ownership within one-half mile of each other have a design flow greater than 10,000 gallons per day, the owner or owners shall make application for and obtain a state disposal system permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). For any SSTS that has a measured daily flow for a consecutive seven-day period which equals or exceeds 10,000 gallons per day, a state disposal system permit is required.
(B) An SDS permit is required for any SSTS or group of SSTS that the MPCA Commissioner determines has the potential or an increased potential to cause adverse public health or environmental impacts if not regulated under a state permit. Conditions for these permits include systems in environmentally-sensitive areas, unsubstantiated or unexpected flow volumes, and systems requiring exceptional operation, monitoring, and management.
(C) For dwellings including apartments, townhouses, resort units, rental cabins, and condominiums, the sum of the flows from all existing and proposed sources under single management or ownership will be used to determine the need for a state disposal system permit.
(D) SSTS serving establishments or facilities licensed or otherwise regulated by the State of Minnesota including, but not limited to, campgrounds, resorts, manufactured home parks, and eating and drinking establishments, shall conform to state and local requirements.
(E) Any SSTS requiring approval by the State of Minnesota shall also comply with all local codes and other relevant aspects of the City of Glenwood Land Use Ordinance, to include connection to municipal sewer wherever the connection is within 200 feet of the property line.
(F) Plans and specifications must receive appropriate state and local approval before construction is initiated.
