(a) An industry must, upon application for sewer service, present to the City a tabulation of the chemical analysis of the wastes to be discharged to sewerage system and the volume of such wastes; or, if this is not available, the expected waste analysis based upon similar processes now in operation.
(b) In cases where the character of sewage or industrial waste from any manufacturing or industrial plant, building, or premises is such that it will damage the sewerage system or cannot be treated satisfactorily at the wastewater treatment plant, the City shall compel those users to dispose of such waste and prevent it from entering the sewerage system.
(c) In cases where the character of the sewage or industrial waste from any manufacturing or industrial plant, building, or premises is such that it imposes an unreasonable burden upon the sewage collection, pumping, or treatment works greater than that imposed by the average sewage entering the sewerage system, the City may:
(1) Compel that manufacturing or industrial plant, building, or premises to pretreat the sewage in such manner as specified by the City before discharging it into the sewerage system.
(2) Require flow control or equalization of the wastes so as to avoid any slug loads or excessive loads that may be harmful to the treatment works.
(3) Require payment of a surcharge on any such flows or loadings discharged to the treatment works to cover the additional costs of having capacity for and treating the wastes.
