(A) If any waters or wastes are discharged, or are proposed to be discharged to sewers discharging to the sewage treatment plant, contain the substances or possess the characteristics enumerated in § 51.68, and which in the judgment of the Superintendent may have a deleterious effect upon the sewage works, processes, equipment or receiving waters, or which otherwise create a hazard to life or constitute a public nuisance, the Superintendent may:
(1) Reject the wastes;
(2) Require pretreatment and adequate equipment necessary to render the wastes acceptable for discharge to the sewers;
(3) Require control over the quantities and rates of discharge; and/or
(4) Require payment to cover the added cost of handling and treating the wastes not covered by existing taxes or sewer charges under the provisions of § 51.74.
(B) If the Superintendent permits the pretreatment or equalization of waste flows, the design and installation of the plants and equipment shall be subject to the requirements of all applicable codes, ordinances and laws. Further, a description of new or substantially changed waters or wastes proposed to be discharged shall be submitted to the Superintendent at least 45 days prior to the initiation of the proposed change.
