ment Standards, or in any other pollutant-specific limitation
developed by the City or State.
It is understood that an industry may vary water usage in the.
ordinary course of processing. This section is not intended to
interfere with this flexibility.
CHAPTER 14.12
ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGES
14..12.010. Accidental Discharge Procedures. Each
Industrial. User shall provide protection from accidental
discharge of Prohibited Pollutant or other substances regulated
by this Title. Facilities to prevent accidental discharge of
prohibited materials shall be provided and maintained at the
owner or Industrial User's own cost and expense. Detailed
plans showing facilities and operating procedures_to provide___,
this protection shall be submitted to the Plant Superintendent
for review, and shall be approved by the Plant Superintendent
before construction of the facility. All existing Industrial
Users shall complete such a plan with six (6) months after
adoption of this Title or by July 1, 1983, whichever date is
later. No Industrial User who commences contribution to the
Plant after the effective date of this Title shall be permitted
to introduce prohibited pollutants into the system until
accidental discharge procedures have been approved by the Plant
Superintendent. Review and approval of such plans and operat-
ing procedures shall not relieve the Industrial User from the
responsibility to modify the Industrial User°s facility as
necessary to meet the requirements of this Title.
14.12.020. Notice. In the case of an accidental
discharge, it is the responsibility of the Lndustrial User to
immediately telephone and notify the Plant Superintendent of
the incident. The notification shall include. location of
discharge, type of waste, concentration and volume, and correc-
tive actions. Failure to comply shall cause the Industrial
Ordinance No. - 10
User to be in violation and subject to conditions described in
Chapter 14.36 of this Title. Within five (5) days following an
accidental discharge; the Industrial User shall submit to the
Plant Superintendent a detailed written report describing the
cause of the discharge and. the measures to be taken by the
Industrial User to prevent similar future occurences. Such
notification shall not relieve the Industrial User of any
expense, loss, damage, or other liability which may be incurred
as a result of damage to the Plant, fish kills, or any other
damage to person or property; nor shall such notification
relieve the Industrial User of any fines, civil penalties, or
other liability which may be imposed by this article or other
applicable law
14..12.030. Notice to Employees. A notice shall be
permanently posted on the Industrial User's bulletin board or
other prominent place advising employees to notify the Indus-
trial User's Authorized Representative of an upset or acci-
dental. discharge.. Employers shall insure that all employees
who may cause or allow such a discharge to occur are advised of
the emergency notification procedure.
14.12.040. Preventive Measures.. Direct or indirect
connections or entry points which could allow spills or uncon-
trolled discharges of prohibited or restricted substances to
enter the sanitary sewer system shall be eliminated, labeled,
or controlled so as to prevent the entry of wastes in violation
of this Title. The Plant Superintendent may require the
Industrial User to install or modify equipment or make other
changes necessary to prevent such discharge as a condition of
issuance of an Industrial Waste Discharge Permit or as a
condition of continued. discharge into the sanitary sewer
system. A schedule of compliance shall be established by the
Plant Superintendent which requires completion of the required.
actions within the. shortest reasonable period of time.. Vio-
lation of the schedule .without an extension of time is a
violation of this Title::
14.12..050. Spill Prevention and Control and Contain-
ment Plans (SPCC). Industrial Users that handle, store or use
substantial amounts of Prohibited Pollutants on their site
shall prepare a spill prevention. plan within. 90 days of the
effective date of this Title directed at preventing the en-
trance of those substances, directly or indirectly, into the
sanitary sewer system. Substantial amounts shall mean an
amount that, if released at one time, could be measured. in the
effluent at the Plant at sufficient concentration to be con-
sidered a prohibited pollutant as defined in this section. The
plan shall be available for inspection at the facility during
normal business hours and shall include, but not be limited to,
the following elements:
A. A description of the potential points of entry into
the sanitary sewer system;.
B. A description. of the measures to be taken to prevent
Ordinance No. 1502 - 11
entry at the described points before the spill occurs;
C. Measures to be taken in the event of a spill of pro-
hibited pollutants or restricted materials to contain
them;
D. A description of employee training in the prevention
and control of spills.
A valid SPCC plan required under the Federal Clean Water Act
may be acceptable in lieu of developing a new spill control
plan, provided the plan adequately addresses the elements
required.:
If an Industrial User has. a spill or uncontrolled discharge of
prohibited pollutants or restricted substances into a sanitary
sewer, the Plant Superintendent may require the Industrial
User's spill prevention and control plan to be submitted to the
Plant Superintendent and may require revisions to be made in
the plan.
CHAPTER 14.16
PERMITS
14.16.010. Control of Industrial Wastes..

CHAPTER 14..20
SAMPLING AND INSPECTION
14.20.010. Waste Sampling and Monitoring.
A. Wastewater discharged into the public sewers shall be
subject to periodic inspection anal a determination of character
and concentration. The determinations shall be made. as often
as deemed necessary. When automatic flow measurement and
sampling facilities are not available, the samples shall be
collected in such a manner to be representative of the composi-
tion of the wastewater. The sampling may be accomplished
either manually or by the use of mechanical equipment. Access
to the sampling locations shall be granted to the, Plant Super-
intendent or his duly authorized representatives at all times
during normal working hours.
B. All measurements, tests, and analyses of the charac-
teristics of wastewater to which reference is made in this
Title shall be in accordance with the. latest edition of Stan-
dard Methods or other procedures permitted by EPA and shall be
determined at a control manhole provided, or taken at said
control manhole. In the event that no special manhole has been
required, the control manhole shall be considered to be the
nearest downstream manhole in the public sanitary sewer to the'
point at which the building sewer is connected. Sampling shall
be carried out by customarily accepted methods to reflect the
effect of constituents upon the Plant and to determine the
existence of hazardous conditions defined elsewhere in this
Title.
14.20.020. Sampling and Flow Measurement. Each
Industrial User discharging industrial wastes into a public
...sanitary sewer may, at his option, or shall, when directed by
the Plant Superintendent, construct and maintain an approved
control manhole, together with such a flow measurement, flow
_ _ _ _ _
sampling, and sample storage facilities-for all wastewater
entering the public sewer as may be required by the Plant
Superintendent. This facilities will be used to obtain flow,
BOD, and suspended solids data for use as a basis for a waste-
. water charge. In lieu. of directing the construction of measure-
ment sampling and sample storage facilities, the Plant Supern-
tendent may require that each person discharging industrial
wastes into a public sanitary sewer to procure and test at the
person's expense and in a manner approved by the Plant Superin-
tendent, sufficient composite samples on which to base and
compute the person°s wastewater charge. In the event that
automatic flow measurement, sampling, and sample storage
facilities are not provided, the wastewa-~er charge shall. be
computed using the meter water flow to the premises as a basis
for wastewater flow and the laboratory analysis of samples
procured as directed by the Plant Superintendent as a basis for
computing wastewater concentrations. Analysis that will change
an Industrial User°s rates shall be transmitted to the City for
action based on a frequency determined by recommendations by
the Regional Rate Committee. Metered water flow shall include
all water delivered to or used on the premises and which is
Ordinance No. 1502 - 18
discharged to regional facilities. All metered flows shall be
metered at the Industrial User's expense.. Cooling waters or
water not discharged to a sanitary sewer shall be separately
metered at the Industrial User°s expense using deduct meters or
any other manner approved by the Plant Superintendent prior to
allowing deduction of such flow from the total water used on
the premises in computing the wastewater charge.
The Plant Superintendent may determine, by at least three
24-hour composite waste samples, .either consecutive or separate
during a year, if wastewater discharged to the sanitary sewers
exceeds the extra strength limits established by this Title,
the City or the Regional Rate Committee. If three consecutive
measurements indicate that the. limits are exceeded, the options
for installation of measurement and sampling equipment shall
apply.
The method to determine rates of charge for wastewater shall be
as described in Chapter 14.32.
14.20.030. Sampling Manhole. The Plant Superinten-
dent may require an Industrial User to install and maintain at
the Industrial User's expense a suitable manhole in the Indus-
trial User's sanitary sewer to allow observation, sampling and
measurement of all industrial wastes being discharged into the
City sewer system. It shall be constructed in accordance with
approved plans and shall be designed so that flow measuring and
sampling equipment may be conveniently installed. Access to
the manhole shall be available for monitoring purposes at all
`times when wastewater is being produced and/or discharged.
14.20.040. Installation Expense and Location.
A. If so directed by the Plant Superintendent, all
devices, access facilities, and related equipment shall be
°installed by"`the Industrial User discharging the wastewater, at
his expense, and shall be maintained by him so as to be in safe
condition, in proper operating condition at all times, and
readily accessible to the Plant Superintendent during periods
of industrial-activity of~'any type.
B. The flow measurement and sampling station shall be
located and constructed in a manner acceptable to the Plant
Superintendent. Complete plans on all phases of the proposed
installation including all equipment proposed for use, shall be
submitted to the City for approval prior to construction.
C. Specifications for metering and sampling devices
shall be obtained from the City.
14.20.050. Analyses. Laboratory procedures used in
the examination of wastes shall be those set forth in Standard
Methods or other EPA approved procedures. However, alternate
methods, for certain analyses of industrial wastes may be used
if approved by the Plant Superintendent.. The waste samples
shall be analyzed by the City of Medford or by a laboratory
approved by the Plant Superintendent.
Ordinance No. 1502 - 19
14.20.060. Inspection and Sampling.

Industrial. User at all hours, for the purpose of inspection,
sampling, or records examination... Plant Superintendent also
has the right to set up on the Industrial User's property such
devices as are necessary to conduct sampling, inspection,
compliance. monitoring and/or metering operations. The right of
entry includes, but is not. limited to, access to those portions
of the premises that contain facilities for sampling, measur-
ing, treating, transporting or otherwise handling wastes, and
storing records, reports or documents relating to the treat-
ment, sampling, or discharge of the wastes.
B. Conditions for Entry..

dures outlined in Section 14.28.040.
C. Representative Samples. Samples of wastewater being
. discharged ,into the sanitary sewer system shall be representa-
_ tive of the discharge and shall be taken .after_treatment,._if ___
any, and before dilution by other water. The sampling method
shall be one approved by the Plant Superintendent and done in _
accordance with good engineering practice.
D. Taking Samples,. Samples that are taken for the
purposes of determining compliance with the requirements of
this Title shall be split with the Industrial User (or a
duplicate sample provided in the instance of fats, oils and
greases) if requested by the Industrial User before or at the
time of sampling.
E. Analysis. All sample analyses shall be performed in
accordance with the procedures set forth in 40 CFR, Part 136
and any amendments thereto or with any other test procedures
approved by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency. If there are no approved test procedures for a partic-
ular pollutant, then analyses shall be performed using other
validated procedures approved by the Plant Superintendent.
14.20.070. Resampling Requests: Fees. Any Indus-
trial User may request the Plant Superintendent to resample
wastewater at no charge if eighteen months or more have elapsed
since the last such sampling. If less than eighteen months
Ordinance No. 1502 - 20
have elapsed since the last sampling, then requests for the
Plant Superintendent to resample wastes shall be submitted in
writing, and accompanied by full payment, to the City for the
resampling fee in such amount as shall be established by the
City Council.

porated in a contractual agreement as a condition of the
acceptance of the industrial waste from that facility..
C. Any facilities required to pretreat wastewater to a
level acceptable to the Plant Superintendent shall be provided,
operated, and maintained at the Industrial User's expense.
Detailed plans showing the pretreatment facilities and operat-
"ing procedures shall be submitted to and approved by the Plant
Superintendent before construction of the facility. The review
of such plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve
the Industrial User from the responsibility of modifying the
facilities as necessary to produce an acceptable effluent under
the provisions of this Title. Any subsequent changes in the
pretreatment facilities or method of operation shall be reported
to and be acceptable to Plant Superintendent prior to the
Industrial User°s initiation of the changes..
14.24.020. Grease Traps and Other Pretreatment.
Grease, oil, and sand traps shall be provided, operated and
maintained when, in the opinion of the Plant Superintendent,
they are necessary for the proper handling of wastewater
containing grease in excessive amounts, Or any flammable
