if such standards are thereafter promulgated in accordance with that
Section, provided that:
The building, structure, facility or installation is constructed
at a site at which no other source is located; or
The building, structure, facility or installation totally replaces
the process discharge of pollutants at an existing source; or
The production or wastewater generating processes of the building,
structure facility or installation are substantially independent of
an existing source at the same site. In determining whether these
are substantially independent, factors such as the extent to which
the new facility is integrated with the existing plant and the extent
to which the new facility is engaged in the same general type of activity
as the existing source should be considered.
Construction on a site at which an existing source is located
results in a modification rather than a new source if the construction
does not create a new building, structure, facility or installation
meeting the criteria of this Section but otherwise alters, replaces
or adds to existing process or production equipment.
Construction of a new source as defined under this paragraph
has commenced if the owner or operator has begun or caused to begin
as part of a continuous on-site construction program:

where it:
Discharges a daily pollutant loading in excess of that allowed
by contract with the POTW or by Federal, State, or local law;
Discharges wastewater which substantially differs in nature
and constituents from the user's average discharge;
Knows or has reason to know that its discharge, alone or in
conjunction with discharges from other sources, would result in a
permit violation; or
Knows or has reason to know that the POTW is, for any reason,
violating its final effluent limitations in its permit and that such
industrial user's discharge either alone or in conjunction with
discharges from other sources, increases the magnitude or duration
of the POTW's violations.
The logarithm of the reciprocal of the weight of hydrogen
ions in grams per liter of solution.

by other means, except as prohibited by 40 CFR, Section 403.6(d).
Appropriate pretreatment technology includes control equipment, such
as equalization tanks or facilities, for protection against surges
or slug loadings that might interfere with or otherwise be incompatible
with the POTW. However, where wastewater from a regulated process
is mixed in an equalization facility with unregulated wastewater or
with wastewater from another regulated process, the effluent from
the equalization facility must meet an adjusted pretreatment limit
calculated in accordance with 40 CFR, Section 403.6(e).
Any substantive or procedural requirement related to pretreatment,
other than a National Pretreatment Standard imposed on an industrial
user.
Any well owned by any person for his/her private use.

particles will be carried freely under the flow conditions normally
prevailing in the POTW with no particle greater than one-half (1/2)
inch in any dimension.
A treatment works as defined by Section 212 of the Act, which
is owned in this instance by the Village of Kingdom City. This definition
includes any devices and systems used in the storage, treatment, recycling
and reclamation of municipal sewage or industrial wastes of a liquid
nature. It also includes sewers, pipes and other conveyances only
if they convey wastewater to a POTW Treatment Plant. For the purposes
of this Section, "POTW" shall also include any sewers that convey
wastewaters to the POTW from persons outside the Village limits of
Kingdom City who are by contract or agreement with the Village, users
of a Village POTW, even though the sewers may not have been constructed

or the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to have significant
impact either singly or in combination with other contributing industries,
on the wastewater treatment system, the quality of sludge, the system's
effluent quality, or air emissions generated by the system. However,
the Village need not designate as significant any non-categorical
industrial user that, in the opinion of the Village and with the agreement
of the approval authority, has no potential for adversely affecting
the POTW's operation or for violating any pretreatment standard
or requirement. Any non-categorical industrial user designated as
significant may petition the Village to be deleted from the list of
significant industrial users on the grounds that it has no potential
for adversely affecting the POTW's operation or violating any
pretreatment standard or requirement.
Applies to all significant industrial users (or any other
industrial user that violates C, D, or H hereof) and shall mean:

A.
If any waters or wastes are discharged, or are proposed to be discharged to the public sewers, which waters containing the substances or possess the characteristics enumerated in Section 700.620 of this Article, 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 to constitute a public nuisance, the Superintendent may:
1.
Reject the wastes,
2.
Require pretreatment to an acceptable condition for discharge
to the public 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 this Article.
[Ord. No. 128, 7-9-2019]
A.
Grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be provided when, in the
opinion of the Village, they are necessary for the proper handling
of liquid wastes containing grease in excessive amounts, any flammable
wastes, sand or other harmful ingredients, except that such interceptors
shall not be required for private living quarters or dwelling units.
B.
All interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the
Village and shall be located as to be readily and easily accessible
for cleaning and inspection.
C.
A grease interceptor or trap shall be installed in the waste line
leading from sinks, drains, or other fixtures in all restaurants,
hotel kitchens, bars where food is served, factory cafeterias, clubs,
fraternal organizations, or other commercial establishments where
grease may be introduced into the drainage system.
[Ord. No. 128, 7-9-2019]
When required by the Superintendent, the owner of any property
serviced by a building sewer carrying industrial wastes shall install
a suitable control manhole together with such necessary meters and
other appurtenances in the building sewer to facilitate observation,
sampling, and measurement of the wastes. Such manhole, when required,
shall be accessibly and safely located, and shall be constructed in
accordance with plans approved by the Superintendent. The manhole
shall be installed by the owner at his/her expense, and shall be maintained
by him/her so as to be safe and accessible at all times.
[Ord. No. 128, 7-9-2019]
A.
All measurements, tests, and analyses of the characteristics of waters
and wastes to which reference is made in this Chapter shall be determined
in accordance with the latest edition of "Standard Methods for the
Examination of Water and Wastewater," published by the American Public
Health Association, and shall be determined at the control manhole
provided, or upon suitable samples taken at said control manhole.
In the event that no special manhole has been required, the control
manhole shall be considered to be the nearest downstream manhole in
the public sewer to the point at which the building sewer is connected.
Sampling shall be carried out by customarily accepted methods to reflect
the effect of constituents upon the sewage works and to determine
the existence of hazards to life, limb, and property. (The particular
analysis involved will determine whether a twenty-four-hour composite
of all outfalls or a premise is appropriate or whether a grab sample
or samples should be taken. Normally, but not always, BOD and suspended
solids analyses are obtained from twenty-four-hour composites of all
outfalls whereas pH analyses are determined from periodic grab samples.)
