13.16.140 Pretreatment.

A. Users shall provide necessary wastewater treatment as required to comply with this chapter and shall achieve compliance with all federal categorical pretreatment standards within time limitations as specified by the federal pretreatment regulations. Any facilities required to pretreat wastewater to a level acceptable to the city shall be provided, operated and maintained at the user's expense. Detailed plans showing pretreatment facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the city for review, and shall be acceptable to the city before construction of the facility. Review of such plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve the user from responsibility of modifying the facility as necessary to produce an effluent acceptable to the city under provisions of this chapter. Any subsequent changes in pretreatment facilities or method of operation shall be reported to and be acceptable to the city prior to the user's initiation of changes.

B. The city shall annually publish in the city's official newspaper a list of users which were not in compliance with any pretreatment standards or requirements at least once during the twelve (12) previous months. The notification shall also summarize any enforcement actions taken against user(s) during the same twelve (12) months. All records relating to compliance with pretreatment standards or requirements shall be made available to officials of KDHE or EPA upon request. (Prior code § 9-314)
