§ 15.60.220. Application—Report requirements.

A.

The report required by Section 15.60.210 above or other provisions of this title for all Industrial users shall contain in units and terms appropriate for evaluation the information listed in paragraphs (1) through (5) of subsection B below. Industrial users subject to National Pretreatment Standards shall submit to the director a report which contains the information listed in subsection B below within one hundred eighty days after the promulgation by the Environmental Protection Agency of a National Pretreatment Standard under Section 307(b) or (c)) of the Act or prior to twelve months from adoption of this title where such National Pretreatment Standards have been promulgated prior to the effective date of this title; provided that industrial users subject to the requirements of 40 CFR Section 403.12 may file with the director a copy of a report submitted to the "control authority," as defined in said section, in lieu of the report herein provided. Industrial users who are unable to achieve a discharge limit set forth in Article I of this chapter without improved operation and maintenance procedures of pretreatment shall submit a report which contains the information listed in subsection B. of this section.

B.

As specified hereinabove, the report shall contain all or applicable portions of the following:

1.

The name and address of the industrial user;

2.

The location of such industrial user;

3.

Description of operations: (a) A brief description of the nature, average rate of production (including each product produced by type, amount, processes, and rate of production), and standard industrial classifications of the operation(s) carried out by such user. This description should include a schematic process diagram, which indicates points of discharge to the POTW from the regulated processes, (b) Types of wastes generated, and a list of all raw materials and chemicals used or stored at the facility which are, or could accidentally or intentionally be, discharged to the POTW; (c) Number and type of employees, hours of operation, and proposed or actual hours of operation; (d) Type and amount of raw materials processed (average and maximum per day); (e) Site plans, floor plans, mechanical and plumbing plans, and details to show all sewers, floor drains, and appurtenances by size, location, and elevation, and all points of discharge.

4.

The average and maximum flow of the discharge from such industrial user to the POTW, in gallons per day;

5.

The nature and concentration of pollutants in the discharge from each regulated process from such industrial user and identification of any applicable pretreatment standards and requirements. The concentration shall be reported as a maximum or average level as provided for in the applicable pretreatment standard; if an equivalent concentration limit has been calculated in accordance with any pretreatment standard, this adjusted concentration limit shall also be submitted to the director for approval;

6.

A statement, reviewed by an authorized representative of the industrial user (as defined in Section 15.04.060) and certified by a qualified professional, who shall be approved in writing by Metro, indicating whether pretreatment standards are being met on a consistent basis and, if not, whether additional operation and maintenance procedures or additional pretreatment is required for the industrial user to meet the pretreatment standards and requirements; and

7.

If additional pretreatment or operation and maintenance procedure will be required to meet the pretreatment standards, then the report shall contain the shortest schedule by which the industrial user will provide such additional pretreatment. The completion date in this schedule for pollutants assigned National Pretreatment Standards shall not be later than the completion date established for the applicable National Pretreatment Standard.

8.

The location for monitoring all wastes covered by the permit.

9.

Measurement of pollutants: (a) The categorical pretreatment standards applicable to each regulated process and any new categorically regulated processes for existing sources. (b) The results of sampling and analysis identifying the nature and concentration, and/or mass, where required by the Standard or by Metro, of regulated pollutants in the discharge from each regulated process. (c) Instantaneous, daily maximum and long-term average concentrations, or mass, where required, shall be reported. (d) The sample shall be representative of daily operations and shall be analyzed in accordance with procedures set out in Section 15.60.285 of this ordinance. Where the Standard requires compliance with a BMP or pollution prevention alternative, the user shall submit documentation as required by Metro or the applicable Standards to determine compliance with the Standard.

10.

Any other information as may be deemed necessary by Metro to evaluate the permit application.

C.

For purposes of this section, when the context so indicates, the phrase "pretreatment standard" shall include either a National Pretreatment Standard or a pretreatment standard imposed as a result of the user's discharging any incompatible pollutant regulated by Article I of this chapter. For purpose of this section, the term "pollutant" shall include any pollutant identified in a National Pretreatment Standard or any incompatible pollutant identified in Article I of this chapter.
