(A) Any industrial user and any other user identified by the board shall provide the city with sufficient information to determine if he or she is a major contributor. Any user determined to be a major contributor shall be required to obtain a permit which describes the wastewater constituents and characteristics allowed, and which sets forth the applicable surveillance schedule and the monitoring requirements the user shall be subject to in order to discharge into the sewerage system. A major contributor permit shall be valid for four years unless processing changes are made that, in the opinion of the superintendent or board, alter the wastewater constituents and characteristics significantly. In the event of this change, a new application shall be filed accordingly. A permit may be renewed without reapplication at the end of four years at the discretion of the city.
(B) Nothing in a major contributor permit shall constitute an exception to the prohibitions and limitations on wastewater admissibility as set forth herein. Major contributors are subject to all applicable fees, rates and charges set forth in the city's current sewer rate ordinance.
(C) The holder of any NPDES permit from the state shall file with the Superintendent a copy of each report or application the permit holder files with the state, and the copy is to be filed with the city not later than three business days after the filing with the appropriate state authority. Each user who applies to the state for an NPDES permit shall similarly file a copy of the application and all supporting documents with the city within the three-day time period.
