(A) Where required by the representative, users shall provide protection from an accidental discharge of substances regulated by this chapter. Where necessary, facilities to prevent accidental discharges of prohibited materials shall be provided and maintained at the owner’s expenses. Detailed plans and operating procedures of the facilities shall be submitted to the representative for review and approval prior to construction of the facility. Approval of such plans and operating procedures shall not relieve user from the responsibility of modifying the facility as necessary to meet the requirements of this chapter.
(B) Users shall notify the representative immediately if a slug or accidental discharge of wastewater occurs in violation of this chapter. Notification will allow measures to be taken to minimize damage to the treatment facilities. Notification will not relieve users of liability for any expense, loss, or damage to the treatment facilities or for fines imposed on the community or sewer district by any state or federal agency as a result of their actions.
(C) A notice shall be permanently posted on the user’s bulletin board or other prominent place advising employees of the emergency notification procedure in the event of a slug or accidental discharge.
