Where the strength of wastewater from an industrial, commercial or institutional
establishment exceeds that of normal strength wastewater, which is defined
for this section to be wastewater that has 250 parts per million by weight
(mg/l) of BOD or 350 parts per million by weight (mg/l) of suspended solids
or 15 parts per million by weight (mg/l) of chlorine demand, and where such
wastes are permitted to be discharged to the POTW by the Director of Utilities,
an added charge will be assessed against the user. The amount and terms of
payment of the additional charges shall be determined by the City. These additional
charges shall be based on the additional cost of operation, maintenance, administration,
depreciation, amortization plus other additional costs related to the increased
cost of the conveyance, storage and treatment of this wastewater over and
above that of normal strength wastewater. The strength of such wastes shall
be determined by composite samples taken over a sufficient period of time
to ensure a representative sample. The cost of taking and analyzing the first
of these samples shall be borne by the City. The cost of any subsequent sampling
and analysis shall be borne by the industry or establishment, whether the
owner or lessee. Tests shall be made by an independent analytical laboratory
or at the POTW treatment plant.
