A. No significant industrial user shall discharge wastewater into the POTW without first obtaining a wastewater discharge permit from the director of public works, except that a significant industrial user that has filed a timely application pursuant to section 8-2-7-2 of this chapter may continue to discharge for the time period specified therein.
B. The director of public works may require other users to obtain wastewater discharge permits as necessary to carry out the purposes of this chapter.
C. Any violation of the terms and conditions of a wastewater discharge permit shall be deemed a violation of this chapter and subjects the wastewater discharge permittee to the sanctions set out in this chapter. Obtaining a wastewater discharge permit does not relieve a permittee of its obligation to comply with all federal and state pretreatment standards or requirements or with any other requirements of federal, state, and local law.
D. The director of public works shall have the authority to deny or condition new or increased contributions of pollutants or changes in the nature of pollutants to the POTW by industrial users where such contributions do not meet applicable pretreatment standards and requirements or where such contributions would cause the city to violate its waste discharge requirements.
