The Wastewater Discharge Ordinance sets uniform requirements for discharges into the wastewater collection and treatment system and enables the town to comply with the administrative provisions of the Clean Water Grant Regulations, the water quality requirements set by the Regional Water Quality Control Board and the applicable effluent limitations, national standards of performance, toxic and pretreatment effluent standards, and any other discharge criteria which are required or authorized by state or federal law, and to derive the maximum public benefit by regulating the quality and quantity of wastewater discharged into those systems. This subchapter provides for the setting of user charges and fees for the equitable distribution of costs to all users, and the issuance of permits to certain users. Revenue derived from the application of this chapter shall be used to defray the town's cost of operating and maintaining an adequate wastewater collector and treatment system and to provide sufficient funds for capital outlay, bond service cost, capital improvement, and depreciation.
