A. Industrial Wastewater Disposal. Industrial wastewater includes wastewater resulting from production, or resulting from the washing of equipment and vehicles, or resulting from similar activities. Stormwater runoff and runoff from the watering of landscaping is not included. All industrial wastewater disposal must be approved by the Public Works Director. Industrial wastewater must be disposed into a sanitary sewer unless an alternative disposal is approved by the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The Public Works Director may require pretreatment. A sampling manhole and industrial wastewater discharge permit may be required. Sanitary and industrial wastewater quality must meet City code requirements.

B. Stormwater Disposal. All stormwater, groundwater, and runoff from the watering of landscaping must be discharged into an adequate watercourse, water body, storm sewer or into an approved on-site disposal system. Stormwater and groundwater disposal methods and the determination of the adequacy of the receiving systems require the approval of the Public Works Director. A permit from DEQ may also be required.
