(A) This chapter regulates the use of sanitary sewers; private wastewater disposal; the installation and connection of building sewers; and the discharge of wastewater or waste into the POTW. This chapter sets forth uniform requirements for discharges into the POTW, and the deposit of wastewater and waste hauled to the WRF or to other locations approved by the WRA Director for disposal and treatment.
(B) The objectives of this chapter are to:
(1) To prevent the introduction of pollutants into the POTW that may interfere with the operation of the system or interfere with sludge management and disposal;
(2) Prevent the introduction of pollutants into the POTW that may pass through the system inadequately treated and ultimately into receiving water, the atmosphere or otherwise be incompatible with the system;
(3) Protect workers' safety and health and protect against damage to the POTW; and
(4) Provide for equitable distribution of treatment and industrial pretreatment costs resulting from pollutants introduced into the POTW.
