§ 15.60.090. Treatment plant influent pollutants—Maximum concentrations.

No person or user shall discharge wastewater that will cause the influent concentration at any Metro Wastewater Treatment Plant to exceed the pollutant levels identified in Operational Division Policy No. 2008-01 for Wastewater Treatment Plant Protection Criteria - Treatment Plant Influent - Maximum Concentrations (TABLE B). The director shall monitor the treatment works influent for each pollutant identified in the Operational Division Policy No. 2008-01 (TABLE B). In the event that the influent at the treatment works reaches or exceeds the levels established by said table, the director shall initiate technical studies to determine the cause of the influent violation and shall initiate such remedial measures as are necessary, including but not limited to the establishment of new or revised pretreatment levels for these parameters. The director may also change any of these criteria in the event the POTW effluent standards are changed or in the event changes are deemed advisable for effective operation of the POTW.
