Pretreatment will be required for all industrial wastes discharged by major industries, as defined in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, for which pretreatment standards or other requirements have been promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency in accordance with Section 307 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972; for any discharge requirements developed by the New Jersey State Department of Environmental Protection; or which, in the judgment of the Township, may have deleterious effect upon the local sewer system, receiving water or life; or which, in the judgment of the Musconetcong Sewerage Authority, may have a deleterious effect upon the MSA sewer system.
If the MSA requires the pretreatment or flow equalization of industrial wastes which are to be discharged into the MSA sewerage system or the local collection sewer system, such facilities shall require review and approval by the MSA prior to their construction.
Where pretreatment or flow equalization facilities are required for any industrial wastes discharged into the MSA sewerage system or the local collection sewer system, they shall be continuously maintained in satisfactory and effective operation by the user at the user's expense and shall be operated and maintained in accordance with the requirements of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) then in effect.
In such instances where it is agreed that the industrial waste will be received following preliminary treatment, drawings and specifications showing all pertinent details of the construction proposed to accomplish the pretreatment, including details of the indicator recorder-register type of flow meter and housing to be used to meter the flow of industrial wastes and also details of the control manhole to be constructed on the industrial wastes connection within the sidewalk area shall be submitted for approval. The control manhole shall be provided with adequate access manhole covers of approved type, through which access shall be permitted to Township and MSA personnel at all times, and shall include a sampling location. Drawings, specifications, reports, etc., shall be submitted in quadruplicate and shall be signed and sealed by a professional engineer registered in the State of New Jersey who shall possess expertise in industrial waste treatment and disposal design.
