(a) If any wastewater is discharged or proposed to be discharged to the public sewer which exceeds the normal concentrations of wastes, or which contains the substances or possesses the characteristics enumerated in Section 929.05 and which in the opinion of the Administrator may have a deleterious effect upon the wastewater treatment works or receiving waters, including a violation of applicable water quality standards, or which may otherwise create a hazard to life or constitute a public nuisance, the Administrator may take any or all of the following actions:
(1) Reject the waste and/or prohibit the further discharge of the waste.
(2) Require pretreatment to an acceptable condition for discharge to the public sewer.
(3) Require control over the quantities and rates of discharge.
(4) Require payment by the user causing said discharge to cover the added cost of handling and treatment of the wastewater so discharged.
(b) All industrial wastes discharged to the public sewer by major contributing industries shall at a minimum meet the national pretreatment standards or best practical control technology currently available for incompatible pollutants as promulgated pursuant to Section 307(b) of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. Section 1317(b)), unless the Village is committed by its NPDES permit to remove a specified percentage of the incompatible pollutant. In those instances the applicable pretreatment standards may be correspondingly reduced to levels determined by the Administrator or by the EPA.
(c) If the Administrator requires pretreatment or equalization of waste flow, the design and installation of the pretreatment equipment shall be subject to the review and approval of the Administrator and the EPA, and subject to the requirements of all applicable codes, ordinances, and laws.
(d) Where pretreatment or flow-equalizing facilities are provided or required for any wastes, they shall be maintained continuously in satisfactory and effective operation by the user at the user's expense.
(e) Grease, oil, and sand interceptors shall be provided by the user when, in the opinion of the Administrator, they are necessary for the proper handling of wastewater containing excessive amounts of grease and oil, or sand; except such interceptors shall not be required for residential users. All interception units shall be of type and capacity approved by the Administrator.
(f) Within 90 days after passage of this chapter, each person whose operation entails the discharge of industrial wastes or other wastewaters deemed to be significant by the Administrator to the public sewer shall prepare and file with the Administrator a written statement setting forth the nature of the operation contemplated or presently carried on, the amount and source of water required for use, the proposed point of discharge of said wastes into the wastewater collection system of the Village, the estimated amount to be so discharged, and a statement setting forth expected bacterial, physical, chemical, and other known characteristics of said wastes. After the passage of this chapter, every new commercial and industrial user or other wastewaters deemed to be significant by the Administrator that applies to the Village for sewer service shall provide said information with said application. Within a reasonable time of receipt of such statement, the Administrator shall make an order stating such minimum restrictions as in the Administrator's opinion may be necessary to adequately guard against unlawful uses of the Village's wastewater treatment works by each of said persons.
(g) When circumstances exist which would place an unreasonable burden on the person to comply with the time schedule imposed by subsection (f) hereof, a written request for an extension of time stating the reasons for such a request may be presented for the consideration of the Administrator. No extension of time shall exceed 90 days.
(h) If the Village determines that any user is discharging one or more substances into the sanitary sewer that may disrupt the operation of the wastewater treatment plant, the Village may take immediate action to stop said discharge, including but not limited to terminating the user's water service.
(i) Nothing in this chapter shall prevent any special agreement or arrangement between the Village and any user whereby an industrial waste of unusual strength or character may be accepted by the Village for treatment, subject to possible payment therefore by the user.
