(a) The responsible entity or person shall give notice to the Miamisburg Fire Department, the Montgomery/Green County Local Emergency Response Council, and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (as required by law) if a spill, leak or discharge of a regulated substance occurs within the WF-1 Overlay District. Notification shall be given within 60 minutes of knowledge of the discharge if such spill, leak, or discharge escapes containment, contacts a permeable ground surface, or is not immediately and completely remediated. Additionally, the entity or person shall provide the Miamisburg Water Department with, at a minimum, the location of the incident, name and telephone number, date and time thereof, type of substance(s), concentration and volume, and control or corrective action taken. Such notification shall in no way alleviate other local, state, and federal reporting obligations as required by law.
(b) For spills, leaks, or discharges of regulated substances, the responsible entity or person shall be liable for any reasonable expense, loss or damages incurred by the City in response to such an incident, in addition to the amount of any fines imposed thereof under Ohio and Federal law. Said entity or person shall document and maintain sufficient records so as to reflect accurately the circumstances related to any such incident. Procedures to substantially eliminate the likelihood of reoccurrence of such spills, leaks, or discharges shall be developed as soon as practicable following the incident, but no later than 30 days after the incident. All information shall be made available to the Miamisburg Fire Department, Montgomery/Green County Local Emergency Response Council, Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, and the City of Miamisburg.
