1. Deny or condition new or increased contributions of pollutants,or changes in the nature of pollutants, to the POTW by industrial users where such contributions do not meet applicable pretreatment standards and requirements or where such contributions would cause the POTW to violate its NPDES permit; 2. Require compliance with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements by industrial users; and 3. Control through permit, order, or similar means, the contribution to the POTW by each industrial user to ensure compliance with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements. In the case of industrial users identified as significant under 40 CFR 403.3(v), this control shall be achieved through individual permits or equivalent individual control mechanisms issued to each such user except as follows. B. At the discretion of the superintendent, the superintendent may use general control mechanisms to control discharges to the POTW if the following conditions are met. All of the facilities to be covered must: 1. Involve the same or substantially similar types of operations; 2. Discharge the same types of wastes; 3. Require the same effluent limitations; 4. Require the same or similar monitoring; and 5. In the opinion of the POTW, are more appropriately controlled under a general control mechanism than under individual control mechanisms. 6. To be covered by the general control mechanism, the significant industrial user must file a written request for coverage that identifies its contact information, production processes,the types of wastes generated, the location for monitoring all wastes covered by the general control mechanism, any requests in accordance with 40 CFR 403.12(e)(2) for a monitoring waiver for a pollutant neither present nor expected to be present in the discharge, and any other information the POTW deems appropriate. A monitoring waiver for a pollutant neither present nor expected to be present in the discharge is not effective in the general control mechanism until after the POTW has provided written notice to the significant industrial user that such a waiver request has been granted in accordance with 40 CFR 403.12(e)(2). The POTW must retain a copy of the general control mechanism, documentation to support the POTW's determination that a specific significant industrial user meets the criteria in subsections(B)(l)through (5) of this section, and a copy of the user's Ordinance No.1628,Series 2013 Page 3 of 9
