One person from non-residential applicant shall be delegated by the applicant the authority to be responsible for wastes admitted to the municipal sewers.  Such persons would be charged with maintaining the wastewater discharge operation and assuring a continual high level of performance.

Such person would be involved with the prevention of accidental discharges of process wastes admitted to the sanitary sewer system.  Such person must become aware of all potential and routine toxic wastes generated by their industry.  Such person must also be informed of all process alterations which could, in any manner, increase or decrease normal daily flow or waste strength discharged to the sanitary sewers.

This industrial representative must catalog all chemicals stored, used or manufactured by their industry.  Such a listing should include specific chemical names, not manufacturer's codes.  Those wastes admitted to the sanitary sewer are a prime concern;  however, all discharges should be cataloged.  An estimate of daily average flows and strength must be made including process, cooling, sanitary, etc.   Such a determination should separate the flows according to appropriate categories.   The aforementioned flow and chemical listing is to be sent to the City.

The industrial representative shall determine whether or not large process alterations will occur during the next few years;  one year, two years, five years.   Management should be consulted to determine if such alterations are scheduled and forthcoming.

I certify that I am familiar with the waste water process at the location specified in Section 2.  By signing this section I agree to the conditions specified above.
