It is the responsibility of the city (NPDES NC0021156) to enforce all applicable federal, state and local pretreatment regulations. These regulations are outline in federal regulation 40 C.F.R. part 403 and state regulation 15A N.C. Admin. Code 02H.0900, and Chapter 52 of this code. This Enforcement Response Plan (ERP) has been established as an element of the POTW’s pretreatment program. The purpose of the ERP is to provide for fair and equitable treatment of all users for anticipated enforcement situations. In general, enforcement actions will be taken in accordance with this Enforcement Response Plan. However, the enforcement actions available are not exclusive (NG Model SUO § 8.4). Therefore, any combination of the enforcement actions can be taken against a noncompliant user.
