(A) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged, any storm water, surface water, unpolluted industrial process waters or anything other than acceptable wastes, to any sanitary sewer.
(B) No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged to any public sewer, any substance which may cause the POTW effluent or treatment residues, sludges or scums, to be unsuitable for reclamation and re-use, or to interfere with the reclamation process. In no case shall a substance discharged to the POTW cause the POTW to be in non-compliance with sludge use or disposal criteria, guidelines or regulations developed under § 405 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, being 33 U.S.C. § 1345; the Clean Air Act, being 42 U.S.C. §§ 7401 et seq.; the Toxic Substances Control Act, being 15 U.S.C. §§ 2601 et seq.; or with the state’s standards applicable to the sludge management method being used.
(C) Applications may be cancelled and/or sewer service discontinued by the municipality for any violation of any rule, regulation or condition of service, and especially for any of the following reasons:
(1) Misrepresentation in the application as to the property or fixtures to be serviced by the sanitary sewer system;

(3) Improper or imperfect service pipes and fixtures, or failure to keep same in suitable state of repair.
(D) The admission into the public sewers of any waters or wastes having harmful or objectionable characteristics shall be subject to the review and approval of the village, who may prescribe limits on the strength and character of those waters or wastes. Where necessary, in the opinion of the village, the owner shall provide at his or her expenses, such preliminary treatments may be necessary to treat these wastes prior to discharge to the public sewer. Plans, specifications and any other pertinent information relating to proposed preliminary treatment facilities shall be submitted for the approval of the said village and no construction of such facilities shall be commenced until said approval is obtained in writing. Where preliminary treatment facilities are provided for any waters or wastes, they shall be maintained continuously in satisfactory and effective operation by the owner at his or her expense.
(E) When required by the village, the owner of any property served by a building sewer carrying industrial wastes shall install and maintain at his or her expense a suitable control manhole in the building sewer to facilitate observation sampling and measurement of the wastes. All measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics of waters and wastes shall be determined in accordance with the latest edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Waste Water Manual as approved by the EPA and shall be determined at the control manhole or upon suitable samples taken at said control manhole. In the event that no special manhole has been required, the control manhole shall be considered to be the nearest downstream manhole in the public sewer to the point at which the building sewer is connected.
(F) Grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be provided when, in the opinion of the said Inspector, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing grease in excessive amount, or any flammable wastes, sand and other harmful ingredients except that such interceptors shall not be required for private living quarters or dwelling units. Where installed, they shall be maintained by the owner, at his or her expense, in continuously efficient operation at all times.
