Similarly, any person de- siring to establish a new connection to $ public sewer for the purpose of dis- charging industrial wastes shall be required to fill out and file such a question- naire, which shall ~nclude actual or predicted data relating to the quantity and characterzstics of the wastes to be discharged° 901. 903. 904. 11 When special circumstances such as the size or complexity of his sewage disposal .problem would make complying with the time schedule cited above an unreasonable burden on the person, an extension of time, not to exceed ninety days, may be granted by the Board of Trustees upon presentation of a proper application. Control Manholes. Any person discharging industrial wastes into a public sewer, either directly or indirectly, may be required by the Board of Trustees, upon the recommendation of the Sewer Engineer, to construct and maintain at his own expense one or more control Manholes at a specified location or locations to facilitate the observation, measurement and sampling of his wastes. Such manholes shall be constructed in accordance with the standards and specifications of the Town. The Board may also require the person to install and maintain in any such manhole at said person's expense an approved volume-measuring device. Plans for the installation of control manholes and related equipment must be approved by the Board of Trustees, upon the recommendation of the Superintendent or the Sewer Engineer, before construction is begun. Waste Sampling. In addition to the requirements of paragraph 3.3 of the Industrial Cost Recovery Ordinance, any industrial wastes discharged into the public sewers ~shall be subject to periodic inspection and determination of character and concen- tration. The examination shall be made as often as the Sewer Engineer deems it necessary (but at least once a year) and may include the use of suitable con- tinuously monitoring instruments in appropriate cases. Samples shall be collected either manually or by approved mechanical devices and in such a manner as to be representative of the overall composition of the wastes. Sampling period shall be for a period of time to be determined by the Sewer Engineer. Every care shall be exercised in collecting the samples to insure their preservation, until analyzed, in a state comparable to that at the time the samples were collected. The installation and maintenance of the sampling facilities shall be the responsibility of the person discharging the wastes and shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees. Access to sampling facilities shall be granted at all times to the Sewer Engineer or his duly authorized representative. Operation and testing may be required to be done by the .Town and paid for by the industrial user. Waste Analyses. Laboratory procedures used in the examination of industrial wastes shall be those set forth in "Standard Methods" or other methods approved by both the Town and E.P.A. However, alternative methods for certain analyses of industrial wastes may be used subject to mutual agreement between the Sewer Engineer and the customer. The Town shall make and charge the industrial user for all analyses of the industrial user's wastes as well as other tests the Sewer Engineer maY deem advisable. Analyses made by the Town at the request of the customer shall be charged to the customer according to the standard work order billing practices. All such analyses shall be binding in determining strength-of- wastes surcharges and other matters dependent upon the character and concentration of wastes. 905. Use of Representative Analyses. Until an adequate analysis of a representative sami>le of customer's wastes has been obtained, the Town shall, for the purpose of this ordinance, make a determination ~f the character and concentration of the customer's wastes by using data based on analyses of similar processes or data for his type of business that are available from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or from industry-recognized authoritative sources. This method, if selected by the Town, shall continue at the Town's pleasure or until an adequate analysis has been made. 906. Ail data collected pertaining to industrial wastes including records kept by each industrial user shall be subject to audit and review by the Environmental Protec- tion Agency and the Town. Section 10. Damage 1001. No unauthorized person shall maliciously, willfully or negligently break, damage, destroy, uncover, deface, or tamper with any structure, appurtenance, or equipment which is a part of the municipal sewage works, kny person violating this provision shall be subject to immediate arrest under charge of disorderly conduct and upon conviction shall pay a minimum fine of $100.00 plus payment for all damages. Section 11. Access to Private Property 1101. The Sewer Engineer and other duly authorized employees of the Town bearing proper credentials and identification shall be permitted to enter all properties for the purposes of inspection, observation, measurement, sampling, and testing in accordance with the provisions of this ordinance. The Sewer Engineer or his representatives shall have no authority to inquire into any processes including metallurgical, chemical, oil, refining, ceramic, paper, or other industries beyond that point having a direct bearing on the kind and source of discharge to the sewers or waterways or facilities for waste treatment. 1102.
