Facilities to prevent accidental discharge of prohibited materials shall be provided and maintained at the owner’s or user’s own cost and expense. Detailed plans showing facilities and operating procedures to provide this protection shall be submitted to the Municipal Utility Commission for review, and shall be approved by the Commission before construction of the facility.
(B) All existing users shall complete such a plan within 90 days after the effective date of this chapter. Construction shall be completed within 180 days of approval of plans and notification by the Manager.
(C) No user who commences contribution to the POTW after the effective date of this chapter shall be permitted to introduce pollutants into the system until accidental discharge procedures have been approved by the Commission.

In the case of an accidental discharge, it is the responsibility of the user to immediately telephone and notify the POTW of the incident. The notification shall include location of discharge, type of waste, concentration and volume, and corrective actions.
