The City may take action necessary to deny new or increased wastewater discharges and/or immediately halt a wastewater discharge by any user if:
(a) Imminent endangerment to the health or welfare of people, to the environment or to the POTW is presented.
(b) A discharge would cause the City to violate its NPDES permit.
(c) A user fails to factually report wastewater constituents or characteristics.
(d) A user fails to report significant changes in wastewaters constituents or characteristics.
(e) A user refuses reasonable access to its premises for the purpose of monitoring and inspection.
Any user notified of a suspension of its discharge shall immediately stop or eliminate its contribution. In the event of a user's failure to immediately comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the City may take such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of the sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW, its receiving stream, or endangerment to any individuals. The City may allow the user to recommence its discharge when the user has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the City that the period of endangerment has passed, unless the termination proceedings in Section 926.32 of this order are initiated against the user.
A user that is responsible, in whole or in part, for any discharge presenting 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 City prior to the date of any show cause or termination hearing under Section 926.25 and 926.32 of this chapter.
Nothing in this section shall be interpreted as requiring a hearing prior to any emergency suspension under this section.
