The contents from septic tanks located on property within the City may be discharged at the WRRF upon approval by the Director. A septic waste discharge fee, as determined by the City Council, shall be assessed to the septic hauler/waste discharger. The City Council may review and revise septic tank discharge rates as needed, to ensure that adequate revenues are generated to pay the cost of waste treatment. (See §
176-5.08 for additional details about hauled wastewater.)
The City may adopt reasonable fees for reimbursement of costs
of setting up and operating the City's Nonresidential Wastewater
Discharge program, which may include:
A. Fees for WDP applications including the cost of processing such applications;
B. Fees for monitoring, inspection, and surveillance procedures including
the cost of collection and analyzing a discharger's discharge,
and reviewing monitoring reports and certification statements submitted
by dischargers;
C. Fees for reviewing and responding to accidental discharge procedures
and construction;
E. Fees to recover administrative and legal costs associated with the
enforcement activity taken by the Director or Compliance Manager to
address noncompliance; and
F. Other fees as the City may deem necessary to carry out the requirements
contained herein. These fees relate solely to the matters covered
by this chapter and are separate from all other fees, fines, and penalties
chargeable by the City.
