(A) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged through direct or indirect connection to any sanitary sewer storm water, surface water, ground water, rain water, street drainage, artesian well water, roof runoff, and all subsurface drainage including sump pump discharges, swimming pool drainage, unless specifically authorized by the Utility Director.
(B) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged through direct or indirect connection to any sanitary sewer unpolluted waters, including but not limited to, cooling water, process water, deionized water, condensate or blowdown from cooling waters or evaporative coolers unless authorization is issued by the Utility Director. If authorization is granted for the discharge of such water into a sanitary sewer, the user shall pay the applicable user charges and fees and shall meet such conditions required by the Utility Director.
(C) The installation of new combined sewers is prohibited. For any new building or building site modifications, the inflow-clean water connection to a combined sewer shall be made separate and distinct from the sanitary waste connection to facilitate disconnection of the former if a separate storm sewer or separate sanitary sewer subsequently becomes available.
(D) Stormwater, other than that exempted under this section, and all other unpolluted drainage shall be discharged to such sewers specifically designated as combined sewers or storm sewers or to a natural outlet approved by the Utility Director and other regulatory agencies. Unpolluted industrial cooling water or process waters may be discharged, on approval of the Utility Director, to a storm sewer, combined sewer or natural outlet.
