(A) The town may require users of the treatment works, other than residential users, to supply pertinent information on wastewater flow characteristics. Such measurements, test and analysis shall be made at the user’s expense. If made by the town, an appropriate charge may be assessed to the user at the option of the town.
(1) Compliance determination. Compliance determinations with respect to prohibitions and limitations of this chapter may be made on the basis of either grab samples or composite samples of wastewater.
(2) Sample frequency. Sampling of the industrial wastewater for the purpose of compliance determination with respect to this chapter and its prohibitions and limitations shall be done at such intervals as the Superintendent may determine.
(B) (1) The strength of the wastewaters shall be determined, for periodic establishment of charges, provided for in §§ 52.135 through 52.149 of this code, from samples taken at the aforementioned structures at any period of time and of such duration and in such manner as the Superintendent may elect. Appropriate charges for sampling and analysis may be assessed to the user if said sampling is necessitated by prior violations and are legitimately required to ensure compliance.
(2) The results of routine sampling and analysis by the user may also be used for determination of charges after verification by the town.
