(a) The Superintendent shall notify each person/entity whose operation entails the discharge of industrial wastes to a public sewer that they shall each prepare and file with the Superintendent within ninety days of issuance of the notice, a written statement setting forth the nature of the operation contemplated or presently carried on, the amount and source of water required for use, the proposed point of discharge of said wastes into the wastewater collection system of the City, the estimated volumes and strengths to be so discharged and a fair statement setting forth expected bacterial, physical, chemical and other known characteristics of said wastes. Within a reasonable time of receipt of such statement, it shall be the duty of the City to issue an order setting forth such minimum restrictions as in the judgment of the Superintendent may be necessary to adequately guard against unlawful uses of the City's wastewater system.
(b) When it can be demonstrated that circumstances exist which would create an unreasonable burden on the person/entity to comply with the time schedule imposed herein, a request for extension of time may be presented for consideration of the Superintendent. All requests for extension of time shall be submitted in writing stating the reasons for such a request. Extensions of time may be granted by the Superintendent for good cause shown. Under no circumstances shall the extension of time exceed ninety days after approval of the extension by the Superintendent.
(c) Each person/entity operating a facility which entails the discharge of industrial wastes to a public sewer and whose discharge has strengths beyond the previously described limits shall prepare monthly reports to be submitted to the Superintendent for the purposes of possible limits of conditions of use, substances discharged and/or monitoring procedures.
(d) No statement contained in this chapter shall be construed as preventing any special agreement or arrangement between the City and any industrial entity whereby an industrial waste of unusual strength or character may be accepted by the City for treatment, subject to possible payment therefor by the industrial entity. Said industrial entity may file an appeal from any determination made in the enforcement of this chapter as provided in Section 1045.13.
