(a) If water or waste is discharged or is proposed to be discharged into the public sewers with substances having the characteristics enumerated in Section 1045.22, and which, in the judgment of the City Manager, may have a deleterious effect upon the wastewater works, processes, equipment or receiving waters, or which otherwise create a hazard to life or constitute a public nuisance, the Manager may:
(1) Reject the waste;
(2) Require pretreatment to an acceptable condition prior to discharge into the public sewers;
(3) Require control over the quantities and rates of discharge; and/or
(4) Require payment to cover that portion of the cost of handling and treating the waste that is not covered by existing taxes or sewer charges under Section 1048.31.
(b) When considering the alternatives set forth in subsection (a) hereof, the City Manager shall give consideration to the economic impact of each alternative on the discharger. If the City Manager permits the pretreatment or equalization of waste flows, the design and installation of the plants and equipment shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Manager.
