(A) Protection from accidental discharge. Each industrial user shall provide protection from accidental discharge of prohibited materials or other wastes regulated by this subchapter. Facilities to prevent accidental discharge of prohibited materials shall be provided and maintained at the owner’s or operator’s own cost and expense. Detailed plans showing facilities and operating procedures to provide this protection shall be submitted to the Director for review and shall be approved by him or her before construction of the facility. Review and approval of the plans and operating procedures shall not relieve the industrial user from the responsibility to modify his or her facility as necessary to meet the requirements of this subchapter.
(B) Report of accidental discharge. If, for any reason, a facility does not comply with or will be unable to comply with any prohibition or limitations in this subchapter, the facility responsible for the discharge shall immediately notify the Director, so that corrective action may be taken to protect the treatment system. In addition, a written report addressed to the Director, detailing the date, time and cause of the accidental discharge, the quantity and characteristics of the discharge and corrective action taken to prevent future discharges, shall be filed by the responsible industrial facility within five days of the occurrence of the noncomplying discharge.
