(A) When after making such a review, the Superintendent concludes that, before the owner discharges waste into the public sewers, the owner must modify or eliminate those constituents which would be harmful to the structures, processes or operations of any portion of the Sewage utility or injurious to health, then that owner shall either modify the wastes at the point of origin or shall provide and operate, at the owner’s expense, such preliminary treatment and processing facilities as may be deemed necessary to render owner’s waste acceptable for admission into the public sewers.
(Prior Code, Title V, Ch. II, Art. II, § 12)
(B) Plan, specifications and any other pertinent information relating to proposed preliminary treatment or processing facilities shall be submitted to the town for examination and approval. No construction of such facilities shall begin until the Superintendent has given written approval. Such approval shall not exempt the person from the obligation to make further reasonable adaptations of such facilities when such adaptations prove necessary to secure the results of acceptable waste concentrations desired. The approval of proposed facilities and/or equipment by the town does not in any way guarantee that these facilities and/or equipment will function in the manner described by their constructor or manufacturer, nor shall it relieve an owner, firm or corporation of the responsibility of enlarging or otherwise modifying such facilities to accomplish the intended purpose.
(Prior Code, Title V, Ch. II, Art. II, § 13)
(C) Where such preliminary treatment facilities are provided, they shall be maintained continuously in satisfactory and effective operating condition by the person at his or her own expense and shall be subject to periodic inspection by the town. The person shall maintain suitable operating records, which shall be open to inspection by the town, and shall submit to the Superintendent, such monthly summary reports of the character of the influent and effluent as the Superintendent may require. All records and reports shall be retained for a minimum of three years. All industry whether categorical or non-categorical industry shall comply with all requirements of 40 C.F.R. § 403.12.
