(A) It shall be unlawful for any person to place, deposit or permit to be deposited in any unsanitary manner on public or private property within the city or in any area under the jurisdiction of the city, any human excrement, garbage or other objectionable waste.
(B) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged to any sanitary sewer, either directly or indirectly, water from clear water sources such as stormwater, surface water, ground water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, cooling water, unpolluted water, unpolluted industrial process water, foundation drain water, and sump pump water.
(C) Stormwater, surface water, ground water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, cooling water, unpolluted water, unpolluted industrial process water, foundation drain water, and sump pump water may be admitted to storm sewers which have adequate capacity for their accommodation. No person shall use such sewers, however, without the specific permission of the city.
(D) No new connection to the sanitary sewer system shall be made unless there is capacity available to all downstream sewers, lift stations, force mains and the sewage treatment plant, including capacity for BOD and S.S.
(E) No person shall place, deposit or permit to be deposited in any unsanitary manner on public or private property within the jurisdiction of the city, any wastewater or other polluted water except where suitable treatment has been provided in accordance with provisions of this chapter and the NPDES permit.
(F) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged to any natural outlet any wastewater or other polluted water except where suitable treatment has been provided in accordance with provisions of this chapter and the NPDES permit.
(G) Except as hereinafter provided, it shall be unlawful to construct or maintain any privy, privy vault, septic tank, cesspool, or other facility intended or used for the disposal of sewage.
(H) The owner of all houses, buildings or properties used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purposes, situated within the city and abutting on any street, alley or right-of-way in which there is now located a public sanitary or combined sewer of the city is hereby required at his expense to install suitable toilet facilities therein, and to connect such facilities directly with the proper public sewer in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, within 30 days after date of official notice to do so, provided that the public sewer is within 300 feet of the property line.
(I) It shall be unlawful to construct combined sewers within the city, or in any area under the jurisdiction of the city.
(J) It shall be unlawful to discharge water from clear water sources as listed in division (B) of this section to a combined sewer from new construction that is tributary to the combined sewer unless authorized by the Superintendent. The Superintendent may allow discharge to the combined sewer if the new construction is designed to minimize or delay inflow contribution to the existing combined sewer.
(K) For any new construction, the inflow/clear water connection to a combined sewer shall be made separate and distinct from the sanitary waste connection to facilitate disconnection of the former if a separate storm sewer subsequently becomes available. The Superintendent may require separate flow monitoring devices be installed on the inflow/clear water connection.
