The following conditions shall apply to the compliance schedule required by §
52-57B(7) of this Part
3:
A. The schedule shall contain progress increments in
the form of dates for the commencement and completion of major events
leading to the construction and operation of additional pretreatment
required for the user to meet the applicable pretreatment standard
(such events include, but are not limited to, hiring an engineer,
completing preliminary and final plans, executing contracts for major
components, commencing and completing construction, and beginning
and conducting routine operation);
B. No increment referred to above shall exceed nine months;
C. The user shall submit a progress report to the Borough
no later than 14 days following each date in the schedule and the
final date of compliance, including, as a minimum, whether or not
it complied with the increment of progress, the reason for any delay
and, if appropriate, the steps being taken by the user to return to
the established schedule; and
D. In no event shall more than nine months elapse between
such progress reports to the Borough.
Within 90 days following the date for final compliance with applicable categorical pretreatment standards, or in the case of a new source following commencement of the introduction of wastewater into the POTW, any user subject to such pretreatment standards and requirements shall submit to the Borough a report containing the information described in §
52-57B(4) through
(6) of this Part
3. For users subject to equivalent mass or concentration limits established in accordance with the procedures in 40 CFR 403.6(c), this report shall contain a reasonable measure of the user's long-term production rate. For all other users subject to categorical pretreatment standards expressed in terms of allowable pollutant discharge per unit of production (or other measure of operation), this report shall include the user's actual production during the appropriate sampling period. All compliance reports must be signed and certified in accordance with §
52-48 of this Part
3.
Each user must notify the Borough of any planned
significant changes to the user's operations or system which might
alter the nature, quality, or volume of its wastewater at least 60
days before the change.
A. The Borough may require the user to submit such information as may be deemed necessary to evaluate the changed condition, including the submission of a wastewater discharge permit application under §
52-47 of this Part
3.
B. For purposes of this requirement, significant changes
include but are not limited to flow increases, or pollutant loadings
of 20% or greater, and the discharge of any previously unreported
pollutants.
All users not required to obtain a wastewater
discharge permit shall provide appropriate reports to the Borough
as the Borough may require.
If sampling performed by a user indicates a
violation, the user must notify the Borough within 24 hours of becoming
aware of the violation. The user shall also repeat the sampling and
analysis and submit the repeat analysis to the Borough within 30 days
after becoming aware of the violation. The user is not required to
resample if the supervisor monitors at the user's facility at least
once a month, or if the supervisor samples between the user's initial
sampling and when the user receives the results of this sampling.
All pollutant analyses, including sampling techniques,
to be submitted as part of a wastewater discharge permit application
or report shall be performed in accordance with the techniques prescribed
in 40 CFR Part 136, unless otherwise specified in an applicable categorical
pretreatment standard. If 40 CFR Part 136 does not contain sampling
or analytical techniques for the pollutant in question, sampling and
analyses must be performed in accordance with procedures approved
by the EPA.
Written reports will be deemed to have been
submitted on the date postmarked. For reports that are not mailed,
postage prepaid, into a mail facility serviced by the United States
Postal Service, the date of receipt of the report shall govern.
Users subject to the reporting requirements
of this Part 3 shall retain, and make available for inspection and
copying, all records of information obtained pursuant to any monitoring
activities required by this Part 3 and any additional records of information
obtained pursuant to monitoring activities undertaken by the user
independent of such requirements. Records shall include the date,
exact place, method, and time of sampling, and the name of the person(s)
taking the samples; the dates analyses were performed; who performed
the analyses; the analytical techniques or methods used; and the results
of such analyses. These records shall remain available for a period
of at least three years. This period shall be automatically extended
for the duration of any litigation concerning the user or the Borough
of Lake City, or where the user has been specifically notified of
a longer retention period by the Borough.
