(A) Applications. All applications for wastewater permits shall include an odor and corrosion control Review Document in accordance with the Odor and Corrosion Control Policy adopted by the Chisago Lakes Joint Sewage Treatment Commission (“CLJSTC”) designed to address odor and corrosion control of wastewater discharged to the city wastewater system. When deemed necessary by the city, the Review Document shall be supplemented by an odor and corrosion control plan, along with detailed plans and specifications. The plans and specifications are subject to the review and approval of the city engineer, and shall include but not be limited to information on the quality of the wastewater, including the wastewater’s chemical composition and characteristics, as well as details on the proposed quantity of the wastewater, including but not limited to information on the amount of proposed daily flow of wastewater. In the event that applicant’s proposed wastewater discharge into the city’s sewer system will likely cause odor and corrosion issues exceeding the standards in the CLJSTC Odor and Corrosion Control Policy (“CLJSTC Standards”), which standards are hereby adopted by reference, applicant shall construct facilities necessary to control odor and corrosion at or below levels adopted in the CLJSTC Standards. All applicants shall provide design plans approved by the City Engineer for construction of a manhole at the service line connection to the sewer main for purposes of monitoring the wastewater from applicant’s property. Manholes shall be placed in public right-of-way or a permanent easement and be accessible to the city and CLJSTC staff at all times.
(B) Financial Security. All applicants shall further include financial security to the city in the form of a cash deposit or an irrevocable letter of credit in an amount sufficient to assure compliance with construction of required odor and corrosion control facilities.
(C) Exemptions. All applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the City Engineer based upon CLJSTC Standards to determine whether an individual single family residence, multi-family residence, or small business that only generates normal domestic strength wastewater may be exempt from the provisions of this subdivision.
