REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

§ 6.1 BASELINE MONITORING REPORTS.

   (A)   Within either 180 days after the effective date of a categorical pretreatment standard, or the final administrative decision on a category determination under 40 CFR 403.6(a)(4), whichever is later, existing categorical users currently discharging to or scheduled to discharge to the POTW shall submit to the Utilities Manager a report which contains the information listed in division (B) below. At least 90 days prior to commencement of their discharge, new sources, and sources that become categorical users subsequent to the promulgation of an applicable categorical standard, shall submit to the Utilities Manager a report which contains the information listed in division (B) below. A new source shall report the method of pretreatment it intends to use to meet applicable categorical standards. A new source also shall give estimates of its anticipated flow and quantity of pollutants to be discharged.

      (1)   Identifying information. The name and address of the facility, including the name of the operator and owner.

      (2)   Environmental permits. A list of any environmental control permits held by or for the facility.

      (3)   Description of operations. A brief description of the nature, average rate of production, and standard industrial classifications of the operation(s) carried out by such user. This description should include a schematic process diagram which indicates points of discharge to the POTW from the regulated processes.

      (4)   Flow measurement. Information showing the measured average daily and maximum daily flow, in gallons per day, to the POTW from regulated process streams and other streams, as necessary,'to allow use of the combined wastestream formula set out in 40 CFR 403.6(e).

      (5)   Measurement of pollutants.

         (a)   The categorical pretreatment standards applicable to each regulated process.

         (b)   The results of sampling and analysis identifying the nature and concentration, and/or mass, where required by the standard or by the Utilities Manager, of regulated pollutants in the discharge from each regulated process. Instantaneous, daily maximum, and long-term average concentrations, or mass, where required, shall be reported. The sample shall be representative of daily operations and shall be analyzed in accordance with procedures set out in §6.10 of this appendix.

         (c)   Sampling must be performed in accordance with procedures set out § 6.11 of this appendix.

      (6)   Certification. A statement, reviewed by the user's authorized representative and certified by a qualified professional, indicating whether pretreatment standards are being met on a consistent basis, and, if not, whether additional operation and maintenance (O&M) and/or additional pretreatment is required to meet the pretreatment standards and requirements.

      (7)   Compliance schedule. If additional pretreatment and/or O&M will be required to meet the pretreatment standards, the shortest schedule by which the user will provide such additional pretreatment and/or O&M. The completion date in this schedule shall not be later than the compliance date established for the applicable pretreatment standard. A compliance schedule pursuant to this section must meet the requirements set out in § 6.2 of this appendix.

      (8)   Signature and certification. All baseline monitoring reports must be signed and certified in accordance with § 4.6 of this appendix.

(Ord. 1998-20, passed 11-17-98; Am. Ord. 2012-19, passed 9-18-12)

§ 6.2 COMPLIANCE SCHEDULE PROGRESS REPORTS.

   The following conditions shall apply to the compliance schedule required by § 6.1(B)(7) of this appendix:

   (A)   The schedule shall contain progress increments in the form of dates for the commencement and completion of major events leading to the construction and operation of additional pretreatment required for the user to meet the applicable pretreatment standards (such events include, but are not limited to, hiring an engineer, completing preliminary and final plans, executing contracts for major components, commencing and completing construction, project status reports, beginning operation, and attain compliance);

   (B)   No increment referred to above shall exceed nine months;

   (C)   The user shall submit a progress report to the Utilities Manager no later than 14 days following each date in the schedule and the final date of compliance including, as a minimum, whether or not it complied with the increment of progress, the reason for any delay, and, if appropriate, the steps being taken by the user to return to the established schedule; and

   (D)   In no event shall more than nine months elapse between such progress reports to the Utilities Manager.

§ 6.4 PERIODIC COMPLIANCE REPORTS.

   (A)   All significant industrial users shall, at a frequency determined by the Utilities Manager but in no case less than twice per year (in June and December), submit a report indicating the nature and concentration of pollutants in the discharge which are limited by pretreatment standards and the measured or estimated average and maximum daily flows for the reporting period. In cases where the Pretreatment standard requires compliance with a best management practice (BMP) or pollution prevention alternative, the user must submit documentation required by Utilities Manager or the pretreatment standard necessary to determine the compliance status of the user. All periodic compliance reports must be signed and certified in accordance with § 4.6 of this appendix.

   (B)   All wastewater samples must be representative of the user's discharge. Wastewater monitoring and flow measurement facilities shall be properly operated, kept clean, and maintained in good working order at all times. The failure of a user to keep its monitoring facility in good working order shall not be grounds for the user to claim that sample results are unrepresentative of its discharge.

   (C)   If a user subject to the reporting requirement in this section monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by the Utilities Manager, using the procedures prescribed in § 6.11 of this appendix, the results of this monitoring shall be included in the report.
