It is the purpose of this chapter to establish guidelines, policies, procedures, rates and penalties for the safe, efficient and sound fiscal operation of the wastewater collection and treatment system owned by the Village of Minerva. This chapter is required to comply with certain requirements of the United States and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agencies.
The objectives of this chapter are:
(a) To prevent the introduction of pollutants into the Village's wastewater system which will interfere with the normal operation of the system or contaminate the resulting sludge;
(b) To prevent the introduction of pollutants into the Village's wastewater system which do not receive adequate treatment in the Village's treatment facilities and which pass through the system into the receiving waters or the atmosphere or which are otherwise incompatible with the system; and
(c) To improve the opportunity to recycle and reclaim wastewater and sludge from the system.
