§ 106-113. Permit application deadlines.

Each user must file an application for a user permit on the form provided by the POTW within the following deadlines:

(1)

Existing SIUs: Any SIU discharging into the POTW as of the effective date of this article shall submit a completed permit application form to the POTW as provided by this division within 60 days of being so directed and provided a form by the POTW.

(2)

Proposed new SIUs: Any SIU proposing to commence (or recommence) discharging into the POTW after the effective date of this article shall, at least 60 days prior to the anticipated date on which discharging will commence (or recommence), request a permit application form and submit the completed application to the POTW.

(3)

Categorical users subject to new standard: A user which becomes subject to a new or revised national categorical pretreatment standard, and which has not previously submitted an application for a permit as required herein, shall apply to the POTW for a nondomestic user permit within 90 days after the promulgation of the applicable national categorical pretreatment standard. The POTW may also initiate this action; however, the failure of the POTW so to do shall not relieve a user of its obligation to obtain a permit.

(4)

Other users: Any other user directed by the POTW to complete and submit a user permit application shall do so within 60 days of being so directed by the POTW and provided a form by the POTW. Any user not required to obtain a user permit for existing discharges must apply for and receive a user permit prior to changing the user's discharge in such a manner that the resulting discharge would require a user permit.

The POTW superintendent may also require any other person to file the information required by section 106-114 of this article (whether or not that person is currently a user, and whether or not that person is otherwise currently discharging to the POTW, a storm sewer, or receiving waters), if the superintendent determines that there is a reasonable potential for the person to discharge to the POTW, a storm sewer, or receiving waters, whether due to an accidental spill or for any other reason. Any person directed by the POTW superintendent to submit the required shall do so within the time frame as directed by the POTW superintendent.

The failure or refusal of any person to submit or complete a permit application shall not in any way relieve the person from the duty to comply with a permit issued by the POTW superintendent. In no case shall the receipt or non-receipt of a completed permit application prevent the issuance of a permit by the superintendent or relieve a person from the duty of fully complying with a permit that is issued by the superintendent.
