City Council Meeting Minutes February 16, 2016 Page 5 of 13 Council member Lipton addressed the $25 per day per tap and asked if it is specified in the agreement. City Manager Fleming explained it is addressed in the agreement on page 2, d, as follows: "An extra charge of $25 per day per tap shall be incurred for each SMD1 tap directly contributing non - domestic sewage flow to the flows routed through the emergency overflow connection to Louisville's sanitary sewer collection system. SMD1 shall on an annual basis submit a written report to Louisville identifying all potential toxic pollutants and or hazardous waste and the sources thereof located within the area to be served by the emergency overflow connection." Similar to the IGA with the City of Lafayette, the City has identified all the industrial taps in Louisville requiring pre- treatment services and reporting on an annual basis on the potential pollutants they handle. Council member Lipton asked if this would rule out all residential, commercial or retail. City Manager Fleming explained Superior must specifically identify commercial per tap. The residential component is covered by the $25 per day fee and the commercial is covered under the $100 per tap fee. Council member Maloney supported reciprocal agreements with surrounding communities. He asked what kind of risks the City would assume if the service could not be provided and what is the liability. City Manager Fleming stated staff believes the amount of sewer flow anticipated could be accommodated by the City's wastewater treatment plant. The tap has been sized accordingly and the plant can handle those flows on a temporary basis. City Attorney Light explained the overflow connection is intended to minimize the risk if the lift station failed. It is a contingency to assist Superior if the lift station failed and they did not have a backup plan. It is primarily a feature of Superior's system, which allows them an overflow connection. The operation /maintenance risk is primarily related to Superior system. It is intended to be a temporary backup system until their system comes back online. Council member Loo stated if there was a massive flood, the Town of Superior would still be required to notify the City. She was comfortable there was a failsafe mechanism in place. City Attorney Light explained it is noted in Sub Section 1g of the agreement. MOTION: Council member Maloney moved to approve Resolution No. 8, Series 2016, seconded by Council member Stolzmann.
