A.
Within three months after enactment of this chapter, the Village
may require that any industrial user discharging industrial wastewater
to the wastewater facilities prepare and file with the Village a report
that shall include pertinent data relating to the quantity and characteristics
of the wastewater discharged to the wastewater facilities.
B.
The Village may require that any industrial user desiring to make
a new connection to the wastewater facilities for the purpose of discharging
industrial wastewater, or proposing to increase its current discharge
flows or loads, prepare and file with the Village a report that shall
include actual or predicted data relating to the quantity and characteristics
of the wastewater to be discharged along with information relating
to general processes used at the facility, the types and quantities
of chemicals and additives used at the facility, and other such information
as deemed necessary for the Village to fully assess the potential
impacts of said discharge on the wastewater facilities. All industrial
users proposing to make a new connection or proposing to increase
their current discharge flows or loads shall, in writing, request
that the Village make a determination whether submittal of a report
is required.
C.
The Village shall provide industrial users with a form detailing the specific information that shall be submitted under Subsections A and B. This information shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
(1)
Average day, peak day, and peak hour wastewater flows.
(3)
Chemical analysis of wastewater, including concentrations of any
parameters prohibited or limited under this chapter.
(4)
Information on raw materials, processes, and products as may affect
the wastewater characteristics.
(5)
Information on quantity and use of oils, solvents, cleaning chemicals,
chemical additives, toxic substances, and other substances used at
the facility which could enter the wastewater either intentionally
or accidentally.
(6)
A general process flow diagram showing the processes used at the
facility and the flow of water and wastewater throughout the facilities.
(7)
A plan of the user's facilities showing floor drains, chemical storage
areas, sewers, and pretreatment facilities.
(8)
Detailed description and design information of any pretreatment facilities.
(9)
Detailed description and design information regarding all facilities
installed to prevent and/or control the accidental introduction of
oils, solvents, cleaning chemicals, chemical additives, toxic substances,
and other substances into the wastewater discharged to the wastewater
facilities.
D.
No industrial user shall be required to submit detailed information
regarding proprietary processes. However, in all cases, the industrial
user shall provide sufficient information for the Village to fully
evaluate the likely chemical and physical characteristics of the wastewater
to be discharged from the user's facility and to assess any potential
impacts of said discharge on the wastewater facilities.
A.
No new or increased discharges shall be allowed without written authorization
from the Village.
B.
The Village shall not allow discharge into the wastewater facilities of any wastewater which is not in compliance with the rules and regulations stated in Article IV, Use of Wastewater Facilities, of this chapter.
C.
In addition to any other requirements set forth in this chapter,
the Village shall have the right to prohibit the discharge of any
industrial wastewater into the sanitary sewer which, in the opinion
of the Village, may interfere with the operation of the wastewater
facilities, may pass through the wastewater facilities insufficiently
treated, may cause the wastewater treatment plant to violate any conditions
of the WPDES discharge permit, may prevent the wastewater treatment
plant from meeting operational goals or effluent quality goals, or
which may impair the use or disposal of the wastewater treatment plant
sludge.
D.
Prior to allowing new or increased industrial wastewater discharges
to the wastewater facilities, the Village will determine if sufficient
reserve capacity is available in the downstream sanitary sewer and
in the wastewater treatment plant to provide proper conveyance and
treatment of the proposed wastewater. New or increased discharges
shall not be allowed if it is determined that insufficient capacity
is available in either the sanitary sewer or in the wastewater treatment
plant.
E.
In making its determination to accept, or not accept, said industrial wastewater discharge, the Village will evaluate the information provided by the industrial user in accordance with § 400-54 of this chapter. The Village shall give consideration to available wastewater facilities capacity and to potential adverse impacts of said discharge on the wastewater facilities.
F.
Determination.
(2)
In all cases where the Village allows discharge of said industrial
wastewater to the wastewater facilities, the Village shall apply surcharges,
as applicable, to recover any additional costs associated with conveyance
and treatment of the wastewater, beyond those costs normally associated
with conveyance and treatment of domestic wastewater.
A.
The Village may require that a service agreement be executed between
the Village and an industrial user under the following conditions:
(1)
If the industrial user meets any of the criteria for a significant
industrial user as defined in this chapter; and/or
(2)
If, in the opinion of the Village, the industrial wastewater may
consistently, or at times, contain any substances or characteristics
which could potentially impair or interfere with operation of the
wastewater facilities.
B.
The service agreement shall establish the allowable flows, loads,
and wastewater characteristics which the industrial user shall be
allowed to discharge to the wastewater facilities, shall establish
other conditions and limitations as required to protect the wastewater
facilities and the proper operation thereof, shall establish the period
of time for which the agreement will be valid, and shall establish
penalties for violation of any of the provisions of the service agreement.
C.
The service agreement shall assure continued participation in debt
service charge costs by the industrial user over the life of the agreement.
D.
Should the industrial user eliminate its discharge, the Village,
at its option, may elect to assign to another user that portion of
the design capacity of the wastewater treatment plant and associated
debt service costs, thereby relieving the industrial user of continued
financial participation.
E.
Industrial users shall, in all cases, submit written notification
to the Village in the event that the property covered under an agreement
with the Village is sold or transferred to another person.
F.
In the event that an industrial user sells or transfers the property
covered under an agreement with the Village to another person, then
the agreement, in principle, between the Village and the original
industrial user shall be transferable to the person receiving said
property, provided that the use of the property or facilities will
remain substantially the same. However, the Village shall require
that a new agreement be executed with the new owner of said property
providing a signature on said agreement. The person receiving the
property shall be bound by the conditions of the agreement. In the
event that the use of the property is changed by the person receiving
the property, such that the quantity or characteristics of the wastewater
discharged will be changed, then the Village may require that a new
agreement be executed, with revised conditions or restrictions as
deemed appropriate by the Village, or the Village may deny service
to said user if insufficient capacity exists to accommodate the increased
wastewater flows or loads, or if in the opinion of the Village said
wastewater could adversely impact the operation, maintenance, or performance
of the wastewater facilities.
