(A) Standards for measurements, tests and analyses. Measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics of wastewater to which reference is made in this section shall be determined in accordance with the latest edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, published by the American Public Health Association, or alternate methods approved by the DPW Supervisor which comply with state and federal law. Sampling methods, locations, times, durations and frequencies are to be determined on an individual basis as set forth in this section. The discharger shall have the option to use, at its own expense, more complete sampling methods, locations, times, durations and frequencies than specified by the DPW Supervisor.
(B) Review of standards. Measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics of wastewater required by this section shall be performed by a qualified laboratory. When the analyses are required of a discharger, the discharger may, in lieu of using the village’s laboratory, make arrangements with any qualified laboratory, including that of the discharger, to perform the analyses.
(C) Consideration of factors. In determining the discharge characteristics, factors such as continuous or batch operation and seasonal operation, as well as the information obtained from dischargers under the provisions of this section, shall be considered by the DPW Supervisor. The DPW Supervisor may obtain wastewater samples as required to verify the consistency of discharge.
