pretreatment standards (such events include, but are not limited to, hiring an
engineer, completing preliminary and final plans, executing contracts for major
components, commencing and completing construction, and beginning and
conducting routine operation);
B. No increment referred to above shall exceed nine (9) months;
C. The User shall submit a progress report to the City Manager no later than
fourteen (14) days following each date in the schedule and the final date of
compliance including, at a minimum, whether it complied with the increment of
progress, the reason for any delay, and, if appropriate, the steps being taken by
the User to return to the established schedule; and
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 29
D. In no event shall more than nine (9) months elapse between the submission of
progress reports to the City Manager.
Sec. 9.5-204.3. Categorical Pretreatment Standards; Compliance Reports
Within ninety (90) days following the date for final compliance with applicable
categorical pretreatment standards, or in the case of a new source following
commencement of the introduction of wastewater into the POTW, any User subject to
those pretreatment standards and requirements shall submit to the City Manager a report
containing the information described in Section 9.5-204.1 (B)(4-6) of this article. For
Users subject to equivalent mass or concentration limits established in accordance with
the procedures in 40 CFR § 409.5-203.6(c), this report shall contain a reasonable
measure of the User's long-term production rate. In cases where the Categorical'
Pretreatment Standard requires compliance with a BMP or pollution prevention
alternative, the User shall submit documentation as required by the applicable Categorical
Pretreatment Standard necessary to determine the compliance status of the User. For all
other Users subject to categorical pretreatment standards expressed in terms of allowable
pollutant discharge per unit of production (or other measure of operation), this report shall
include the User's actual production during the appropriate sampling period. All
compliance reports must be signed and certified in accordance with Section 9.5-203.5
(B)(1) of this article. All sampling will be done in conformance with Section 9.5-209.5-
204.13 of the article.
Sec. 9.5-204.4. Periodic Compliance Reports
A. All Significant Industrial Users shall, at a frequency determined by the City
Manager but in no case less than twice per year, submit a report indicating the
nature and concentration of pollutants in the discharge which are limited by
pretreatment standards and the measured or estimated average and maximum
daily flows for the reporting period. In cases where the Categorical Pretreatment
Standard or the City Manager requires compliance with a BMP or pollution
prevention alternative, the User shall submit documentation as required by the
City Manager or the applicable Categorical Pretreatment Standard necessary to
determine the compliance status of the User. All periodic compliance reports
must be signed and certified in accordance with Section 9.5-203.5 (B)(1) of this
article.
B. All Non-Significant Categorical Industrial Users (NSCIUs) shall submit a report
annually in the month specified by the City Manager. The report shall be
completed according to the City's current reporting requirements, including the
submittal of the applicable certification statement found in Section 9.5-203.5
(B)(3) of this article.
C. All wastewater samples must be representative of the User's
discharge. Wastewater monitoring and flow measurement facilities shall be
properly operated, kept clean, and maintained in good working order at all
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 30
times. The failure of a User to keep its monitoring facility in good working order
shall not be grounds for the User to claim that sample results are
unrepresentative of its discharge.
D. If a User subject to the reporting requirement in this section monitors any
pollutant more frequently than required by the City Manager using the
procedures prescribed in Section 9.5-209.5-204.13 of this article, the results of
this monitoring shall be included in the report.
Sec. 9.5-204.5. Changed Conditions; Notices
A. Each User must notify the City Manager and the Control Authority of any planned
significant changes to the User's operations or system which might alter the
nature, quality, or volume of its wastewater a minimum of ninety (90) days prior
to the change. -
B. The City Manager may require the User to submit such information as may be
deemed necessary to evaluate the changed condition, including the submission
of a wastewater discharge permit application under Section 9.5-203.5 (A) of this
article.
C. The City Manager may issue a wastewater discharge permit under Section 9.5-
203.6 of this article or modify an existing wastewater discharge permit under
Section 9.5-203.9 of this article in response to changed conditions or anticipated
changed conditions.
D. For purposes of this requirement, significant changes include, but are not limited
to, flow increases of 20% or greater, and the discharge of any previously
unreported pollutants that are determined to be of concern.
Sec. 9.5-204.6. Accidental Discharge or Potential Problems; Report; Liability
A. In the case of any discharge, including, but not limited to, accidental discharges,
discharges of a non-routine, episodic nature, a non-customary batch discharge,
or a slug load, that may cause potential problems for the POTW, the User shall
immediately telephone and notify the City and the Control Authority of the
incident. This notification shall include the location of the discharge, type of
waste, concentration and volume, if known, and corrective actions taken by the
User.
B. Within five (5) days following that discharge, the User shall, unless waived by the
City Manager, submit a detailed written report describing the cause(s) of the
discharge and the measures to be taken by the User to prevent similar future
occurrences. Such notification shall not relieve the User of any expense, loss,
damage, or other liability which may be incurred as a result of damage to the
POTW, natural resources, or any other damage to person or property; nor shall
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 31
this notification relieve the User of any fines, penalties, or other liability which
may be imposed pursuant to this article.
C. A notice shall be permanently posted on the User's bulletin board or other
prominent place advising employees whom to call in the event of a discharge
described in paragraph A, above. Employers shall ensure that all employees,
who may cause such a discharge to occur, are advised of the emergency
notification procedure.
D. Significant Industrial Users are required to notify the City Manager immediately
of any changes at their facilities affecting the potential for a Slug Discharge.
Sec. 9.5-204.7. Users Without Permit; Required Reports
All Users not required to obtain a wastewater discharge permit shall provide
appropriate reports to the City Manager as the City Manager may require.
Sec. 9.5-204.8. Notice of Violation; Repeat Sampling and Reporting
If sampling performed by a User indicates a violation, the User must notify the City
Manager within twenty-four(24) hours of becoming aware of the violation. The User shall
also repeat the sampling and analysis and submit the results of the repeat analysis to the
City Manager within thirty (30) days after becoming aware of the violation. The User is
not required to resample if the City Manager monitors at the User's facility at least once
a month, or if the City Manager samples between the User's initial sampling and when
the User receives the results of this sampling or if the City Manager has performed the
sampling and analysis in lieu of the User.
Sec. 9.5-204.9. Hazardous Waste Discharge; Notification
A. Any User who commences the discharge of hazardous waste shall notify the
POTW, the EPA Regional Waste Management Division Pretreatment
Coordinator, and State hazardous waste authorities, in writing, of any discharge
into the POTW of a substance which, if otherwise disposed of, would be a
hazardous waste under 40 CFR § 261. Such notification must include the name
of the hazardous waste as set forth in 40 CFR § 261, the EPA hazardous waste
number, and the type of discharge (continuous, batch, or other). If the User
discharges more than one hundred (100) kilograms of such waste per calendar
month to the POTW, the notification also shall contain the following information
to the extent such information is known and readily available to the User: an
identification of the hazardous constituents contained in the wastes, an
estimation of the mass and concentration of such constituents in the
wastestream discharged during that calendar month, and an estimation of the
mass of constituents in the wastestream expected to be discharged during the
following twelve (12) months. All notifications must take place no later than one
hundred and eighty (180) days after the discharge commences. Any notification
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 32
under this division need be submitted only once for each hazardous waste
discharged. However, notifications of changed conditions must be submitted
under Section 9.5-204.5 of this article. The notification requirement in this
section does not apply to pollutants already reported by Users subject to
categorical pretreatment standards under the self-monitoring requirements of
Sections 9.5-204.1, 9.5-204.3, and 9.5-204.4 of this article.
B. Dischargers are exempt from the requirements of paragraph A, above, during a
calendar month in which they discharge no more than fifteen (15) kilograms of
hazardous wastes, unless the wastes are acute hazardous wastes as specified
in 40 CFR §§ 269.5-201.30(d) and 269.5-201.33(e). Discharge of more than
fifteen (15) kilograms of nonacute hazardous wastes in a calendar month, or of
any quantity of acute hazardous wastes as specified in 40 CFR §§ 269.5-
201.30(d) and 269.5-201.33(e), requires a one-time notification. Subsequent
months during which the User discharges more than such quantities of any
hazardous waste do not require additional notification.
C. In the case of any new regulations under Section 3001 of RCRA identifying
additional characteristics of hazardous waste or listing any additional substance
as a hazardous waste, the User must notify the City Manager, the POTW, the
EPA Regional Waste Management Waste Division Pretreatment Coordinator,
and State hazardous waste authorities of the discharge of that substance within
ninety (90) days of the effective date of such regulations.
D. In the case of any notification made under this section, the User shall certify that
it has a program in place to reduce the volume and toxicity of hazardous wastes
generated to the degree it has determined to be economically practical.
E. This provision does not create a right to discharge any substance not otherwise
permitted to be discharged by this article, a permit issued thereunder, or any
applicable federal or state law.
Sec. 9.5,204.10. Analytical and Sampling Standards
All pollutant analyses, including sampling techniques, to be submitted as part of a
wastewater discharge permit application or report shall be performed in accordance with
the techniques prescribed in 40 CFR § 136, and amendments thereto, unless otherwise
specified in an applicable categorical pretreatment standard. If 40 CFR § 136 does not
contain sampling or analytical techniques for the pollutant in question, or where the EPA
determines that the Part 136 sampling and analytical techniques are inappropriate for the
pollutant in question sampling and analyses shall be performed by using validated
analytical methods or any applicable sampling and analytical procedures, including
procedures suggested by the City Manager, the EPA, TCEQ, or other parties approved
by EPA.
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 33
Sec. 9.5-204.11. Sample Collection Techniques
A. Except as indicated in paragraphs B and C of this section, the User must collect
wastewater samples using 24-hour flow-proportional composite sampling
techniques, unless time-proportional composite sampling or grab sampling is
authorized by the City Manager. Where time-proportional composite sampling
or grab sampling is authorized by the City, the samples must be representative
of the discharge. Using protocols (including appropriate preservation) specified
in 40 CFR Part 136 and appropriate EPA guidance, multiple grab samples
collected during a 24-hour period may be composited prior to the analysis as
follows: for cyanide, total phenols, and sulfides the samples may be composited
in the laboratory or in the field; for volatile organics and oil and grease, the
samples may be composited in the laboratory. Composite samples for other
parameters unaffected by the compositing procedures as documented in
approved EPA methodologies may be authorized by the City, as appropriate. In
addition, grab samples may be required to show compliance with Instantaneous
Limits.
B. Samples for oil and grease, temperature, pH, cyanide, phenols, sulfides, and
volatile organic compounds must be obtained using grab collection techniques.
C. For sampling required in support of baseline monitoring and 90-day compliance
reports required in Sections 9.5-204.1 and 9.5-204.3 [40 CFR § 409.5-209.5-
203.12(b) and (d)], a minimum of four (4) grab samples must be used for pH,
cyanide, total phenols, oil and grease, sulfide and volatile organic compounds for
facilities for which historical sampling data does not exist; for facilities for which
historical sampling data are available, the City Manager may authorize a lower
minimum. For the reports required by Section 9.5-204.4 (40 CFR§§409.5-209.5-
203.12(e) and 409:5-209.5-203.12(h)), the Industrial User is required to collect
the number of grab samples necessary to assess and assure compliance with
applicable Pretreatment Standards and Requirements.
Sec. 9.5-204.12. Submission Date
Written reports will be deemed to have been submitted on the date
postmarked. For reports which are not mailed, postage prepaid, into a mail facility
serviced by the United States Postal Service, the date of receipt of the report shall govern.
Sec. 9.5-204.13. Records Retention
Users subject to the reporting requirements of this chapter shall retain, and make
available for inspection and copying, all records of information obtained pursuant to any
monitoring activities required by this article and any additional records of information
obtained pursuant to monitoring activities undertaken by the User independent of such
requirements, and documentation associated with Best Management Practices
established in this article. Records shall include the date, exact place, method, and time
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 34
of sampling, and the name of the person(s) taking the samples; the dates analyses were
performed; who performed the analyses; the analytical techniques or methods used; and
the results of the analyses. These records shall remain available for a period of at least
three (3) years. This period shall be automatically extended for the duration of any
litigation concerning the User or the City, or where the User has been specifically notified
of a longer retention period by the City Manager.
SECTION 9.5-205 —ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT
Sec. 9.5-205.1. Right of Entry: Inspection and Sampling
A. The City Manager and/or the Control Authority to the extent the Control Authority
does not have the authorization to enter the User's premises under any other
agreements with the City, TCEQ, or EPA or their designated representative(s)
shall have the right to enter the premises of any User to determine whether the
User is complying with all requirements of this article and any wastewater
discharge permit or order issued hereunder. Users shall allow the inspecting or
sampling person(s) ready access to all parts of the premises for the purposes of
inspection, sampling, records examination and copying, and the performance of
any additional duties.
B. Where a User has security measures in force which require proper identification
and clearance before entry into its premises, the User shall make necessary
arrangements with its security guards so that, upon presentation of suitable
identification, City, Control Authority, TCEQ, or EPA personnel will be permitted

Council)(002).docx Page 35
F. Unreasonable delays in allowing an inspecting or sampling person access to the
User's premises shall be a violation of this article.
G. In accordance with 40 CFR § 403, the City shall inspect and monitor each
Significant Industrial User a minimum of once per year. If the City elects to
perform compliance monitoring for the Significant Industrial User then the City
will monitor the industry a minimum of semiannually.
H. The City shall inspect each NSCIU a minimum of once per year. If the City elects
to perform compliance monitoring for the NSCIU then the City will monitor the
industry a minimum of one time each permit cycle.
Sec. 9.5-205.2. Search Warrants
If the City Manager and/or Control Authority has been refused or denied access to
a building, structure, or property, or any part thereof, and is able to demonstrate probable
cause to believe that there may be a violation of this article, or that there is a need to
inspect and/or sample as part of a routine inspection and sampling program of the City
designed to verify compliance with this article or any permit or order issued hereunder, or
to protect the overall public health, safety, and welfare of the community, then the City
Manager and/or Control Authority may seek issuance of a search warrant from an
appropriate court or judicial officer.
Sec. 9.5-205.3. Confidential Information
Information and data on a User obtained from reports, surveys, wastewater
discharge permit applications, wastewater discharge permits, and monitoring programs,
and from inspection and sampling activities, shall be available to the public without
restriction, unless the User specifically requests, and is able to demonstrate to the
satisfaction of the City or Control Authority, that the release of that information would
divulge information, processes, or methods of production entitled to protection as trade
secrets under applicable state law. Any such request must be asserted at the time of
submission of the information or data. When requested and demonstrated by the User
furnishing a report that the information should be held confidential, the portions of a report
which might disclose trade secrets or secret processes shall only be available pursuant
to the requirements of the Texas Public Information Act, but shall be made available
immediately upon request to governmental agencies for uses related to the NPDES or
TPDES program or pretreatment program, and in enforcement proceedings involving the
person furnishing the report. Wastewater constituents and characteristics, and other
effluent data as defined by 40 CFR § 9.5-202.302, will not be recognized as confidential
information and will be available to the public without restriction. -
Sec. 9.5-205.4. Publication of Users in Significant Noncompliance
A. The.City Manager shall publish annually, in a newspaper of general circulation
that provides meaningful public notice within the jurisdictions served by the
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 36
POTW, a list of the Users which, at any time during the previous twelve (12)
months, were in significant noncompliance with applicable pretreatment
standards and requirements.
B. The term Significant Noncompliance shall be applicable to all Significant
Industrial Users (or any other Industrial User that violates paragraphs (3), (4), or
(8) of this paragraph) and shall mean:
(1) Chronic violations of wastewater discharge limits, defined here as those in
which sixty-six percent(66%) or more of all the measurements taken for the
same pollutant parameter taken during a six (6) month period exceed (by
any. magnitude) a numeric Pretreatment Standard or Requirement,
including Instantaneous Limits as defined in Sections 9.5-202.1 - 9.5-202.6;
(2) Technical Review Criteria (TRC) violations, defined here as those in which
thirty-three percent (33%) or more of wastewater measurements taken for
each pollutant parameter during a six (6) month period equals or exceeds
the product of the numeric Pretreatment Standard or Requirement including
Instantaneous Limits, as defined by Section 9.5-202.1-9.5-202.6 multiplied
by the applicable criteria (9.5-201.4 for BOD, TSS, fats, oils and grease,
and 9.5-201.2 for all other pollutants except pH);
(3) Any other violation of a Pretreatment Standard or Requirement as defined
by Section 9.5-202.1 — 9.5-202.6 (Daily Maximum, long-term average,
Instantaneous Limit, or narrative standard) that the City Manager
determines has caused, alone or in combination with other discharges,
Interference or Pass Through, including endangering the health of POTW
personnel or the general public;
(4) Any discharge of a pollutant that has caused imminent endangerment to the
public or to the environment, or has resulted in the City Manager's exercise

C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 37
(8) Any other violation(s), which may include a violation of Best Management
Practices, which the City Manager determines will adversely affect the
operation or implementation of the local pretreatment program.
Sec. 9.5-205.5. Notification of Violation; User Plan of Action
When the City Manager finds that a User has violated, or continues to violate, any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit or order issued hereunder, or any
other pretreatment standard or requirement, the City Manager may serve upon that User
a written Notice of Violation. Within the time frame specified in this notice, an explanation
of the violation and a plan for the satisfactory correction and prevention thereof, to include
specific required actions, shall be submitted by the User to the City Manager. Submission
of this plan in no way relieves the User of liability for any violations occurring before or
after receipt of the Notice of Violation. Nothing in this section shall limit the authority of
the City Manager to take any action, including emergency actions or any other
enforcement action, without first issuing a Notice of Violation.
Sec. 9.5-205.6. Consent Order
The City Manager may enter into a Consent Order, assurance of compliance, or a
similar document establishing an agreement with any User responsible for
noncompliance. Such documents shall include specific action to be taken by the User to
correct the noncompliance within a time period specified by the document. Such
documents shall have the same force and effect as the administrative orders issued
pursuant to Sections 9.5-205.8 and 9.5-205.9 of this article and shall be judicially
enforceable. Issuance of a consent order shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for,
taking any other action against the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.7. Show Cause Hearing
The City Manager may order a User which has violated or continues to violate any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit or order issued hereunder, or any
other pretreatment standard or requirement, to appear before the City Manager and show
cause why the proposed enforcement action should not be taken. Notice shall be served
on the User specifying the time and place for the meeting, the proposed enforcement
action, the reasons for such action, and a request that the User show cause why the
proposed enforcement action should not be taken. The notice of the meeting shall be
served personally or by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) at least ten
(10) days prior to the hearing. Such notice may be served on any Authorized
Representative of the User. A show cause hearing shall not be a bar against, or
prerequisite for, taking any other action against the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.8. Compliance Orders
When the City Manager finds that a User has violated or continues to violate any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit or order issued hereunder, or any
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 38
other pretreatment standard or requirement, the City Manager may issue an order to the
User responsible for the discharge directing that the User come into compliance within a
specified time. If the User does not come into compliance within the time provided, sewer
service may be discontinued unless adequate treatment facilities, devices, or other
related appurtenances are installed and properly operated. Compliance orders also may
contain other requirements to address the noncompliance, including additional self-
monitoring and management practices designed to minimize the amount of pollutants
discharged to the sewer. A compliance order may not extend the deadline for compliance
established for a pretreatment standard or requirement; nor does a compliance order
relieve the User of liability for any violation, including any continuing violation. Issuance
of a compliance order shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any other
action against the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.9 Cease-and-Desist Orders
A. When the City Manager finds that a User has violated or continues to violate any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit or order issued
hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, or that the User's
past violations are likely to recur, the City Manager may issue an order to the
User directing it to cease and desist all such violations and directing the User to:
(1) Immediately comply with all requirements; and
(2) Take such appropriate remedial or preventive action as may be needed to
properly address a continuing or threatened violation, including halting
operations and/or terminating the discharge.
B. Issuance of a cease-and-desist order shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite
for, taking any other action against the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.10. Emergency Suspension of Discharge
A. The City Manager may immediately suspend a User's discharge, after informal
notice to the User, whenever such suspension is necessary to stop an actual or
threatened discharge which reasonably appears to present or cause an imminent
or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons. The City
Manager may also immediately suspend a User's discharge, after notice and
opportunity to respond, that threatens to interfere with the operation of the
POTW, or which presents, or may present, an`endangerment to the environment.
(1) Any User notified of a suspension of its discharge shall immediately stop or
eliminate its contribution. In the event of a User's failure to immediately
comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the City Manager may take
such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of the
sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW, its
receiving stream, or endangerment to any individuals. The City Manager
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 39
may allow the User to recommence its discharge when the User has
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the City Manager that the period of
endangerment has passed, unless the termination proceedings in Section
9.5-209.5-209.5-205.11 of this article are initiated against the User.
(2) A User that is responsible, in whole or in part, for any discharge presenting
imminent endangerment shall submit a detailed written statement,
describing the causes of the harmful contribution and the measures taken
to prevent any future occurrence, to the City Manager prior to the date of
any show cause or termination hearing under Sections 9.5-205.7 or 9.5-
209.5-209.5-205.11 of this article.
B. Nothing in this section shall be interpreted as requiring a hearing prior to any
emergency suspension under this section.
Sec. 9.5-205.11. Termination of Discharge
A. In addition to the provisions in Section 9.5-209.5-203.11 of this article, any User
who violates the following conditions is subject to discharge termination:
(1) Violation of wastewater discharge permit conditions;
(2) Failure to accurately report the wastewater constituents and characteristics
of its discharge;
(3) Failure to report significant changes in operations or wastewater volume,
constituents, and characteristics prior to discharge;
(4) Refusal of reasonable access to the User's premises for the purpose of
inspection, monitoring, or sampling; or
(5) Violation of the pretreatment standards in Sections 9.5-202.1-9.5-202.6 of
this article.
B. Such Users will be notified of the proposed termination of its discharge and be
offered an opportunity to show cause under Section 9.5-205.7 of this article why
the proposed action should not be taken. Exercise of this option by the City
Manager shall not be a bar to, or a prerequisite for, taking any other action
against the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.12. Injunctive Relief
When the City Manager finds that a User has violated or continues to violate any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any
other pretreatment standard or requirement, the City Manager may petition a court of
competent jurisdiction through the City Attorney for the issuance of a temporary
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 40
restraining order and temporary or permanent injunction, as appropriate, which restrains
or compels the specific performance of the wastewater discharge permit, order, or other
requirement imposed by this article on activities of the User. The City Manager may also
seek such other action as is appropriate for legal and/or equitable relief, including a
requirement for the User to conduct environmental remediation. A petition for injunctive
relief shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any other action against a
User.
Sec. 9.5-205.13. Remedies Not Exclusive
The remedies provided for in this article are not exclusive. The City Manager may
take any, all, or any combination of these actions against a noncompliant
User. Enforcement of pretreatment violations will generally be in accordance with the
City's enforcement response plan. However, the City Manager may take other action
against any User when the circumstances warrant. Further, the City Manager is
empowered to take more than one enforcement action against any noncompliant User.
Sec. 9.5-205.14. Applicability of More Stringent Regulations
A. More Stringent Discharge Limits. If national pretreatment standards, categorical
or otherwise, more stringent than the discharge limits prescribed in this article
are promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency for
certain industries, the more stringent national pretreatment standards will apply
to the affected Industrial User. A violation of the more stringent national
pretreatment standards will also be considered a violation of this article.
B. Applicability of More Stringent Discharge Limits. An Industrial User within the city
who discharges industrial waste ultimately received and treated by another
governmental entity pursuant to a wholesale wastewater contract or a reciprocal
agreement with the city is subject to the following additional rules:
(1) If the governmental entity has more stringent discharge limits than those
prescribed by this article, or by a discharge permit issued hereunder,
because the United States Environmental Protection Agency requires the
more stringent discharge limits as part of the governmental entity's
wastewater pretreatment program, the more stringent discharge limits shall
prevail.
(2) The City Manager is authorized to issue a discharge permit to an Industrial
User affected by Subsection (1), to ensure notice of and compliance with
the more stringent discharge limits. If the Industrial User already has a
discharge permit, the City Manager may amend the permit to apply and
enforce the more stringent discharge limits. An Industrial User shall submit
to the City Manager an expected compliance date and an installation
schedule if the more stringent discharge limits necessitate technological or
mechanical adjustments to discharge facilities or plant processes.

Council)(002).docx Page 41
(3) If the City Manager chooses not to issue or amend a permit under
Subsection (2), the City Manager shall notify the affected Industrial User in
writing of the more stringent discharge limits and their effective
date. Regardless of whether or not a permit is issued or amended, an
Industrial User shall be given a reasonable opportunity to comply with the
more stringent discharge limits.
(4) The more stringent discharge limits cease to apply upon termination of the
City's wholesale wastewater contract or reciprocal agreement with the
governmental entity, or upon modification or elimination of the limits by the
government entity or the United States Environmental Protection
Agency. The City Manager shall take the appropriate action to notify the
affected Industrial User of an occurrence under this Subsection (4).
C. Variances in Compliance Dates. The City Manager may grant a variance in
compliance dates to an industry when, in the City Manager's opinion, such action
is necessary to achieve pretreatment or corrective measures. In no case shall
the City Manager grant a variance in compliance dates to an industry affected by
national categorical pretreatment standards beyond the compliance dates
established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
D. Authority to Regulate. The City Manager may establish regulations, not in
conflict with this article or other laws, to control the disposal and discharge of
industrial waste into the wastewater system and to ensure compliance with the
City's pretreatment enforcement program with all applicable pretreatment
regulations promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency. The regulations established shall, where applicable, be made part of
any discharge permit issued to an Industrial User by the City Manager.
Sec. 9.5-205.15. Affirmative Defenses to Discharge Violations
A. Act of God provision
(1) An event that would otherwise be a violation that is caused solely by an act
of God, war, strike, riot, or other catastrophe is not a violation.
(2) In an enforcement proceeding, the User seeking to establish the occurrence
of an act of God, war, strike, riot, or other catastrophe shall have the burden
of proof.
(3) In the event that an act of God, war, strike, riot, or other catastrophe has
been established, the User shall control production of all discharges to the
extent possible until such time as the reduction, loss, or failure of its
treatment facility is restored or an alternative method of treatment is
provided.

Council)(002).docx Page 42
B. Bypass
(1) For the purpose of this section:
(a) "Bypass" means the intentional diversion of wastestreams from any
portion of a User's treatment facility.
(b) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to
property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to
become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural
resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence
of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss
caused by delays in production.
(2) A User may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause pretreatment
standards or requirements to be violated, but only if it also is for essential
maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject
to the provision of subsections (3) and (4) of this paragraph.
(3) Bypass Notifications
(a) If a User knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit
prior notice to the City Manager at least ten (10) days before the date
,of the bypass, if possible.
(b) A User shall submit oral notice to the City Manager of an
unanticipated bypass that exceeds applicable pretreatment
standards within twenty-four (24) hours from the time it becomes
aware of the bypass. A written submission shall also be provided
within five (5) days of the time the User becomes aware of the
bypass. The written submission shall contain a description of the
bypass and its cause; the duration of the bypass, including exact
dates and times, and, if the bypass has not been corrected; the
anticipated time it is expected to continue; and steps taken or
planned to reduce, eliminate, and prevent recurrence of the
bypass. The City Manager may waive the written report on a case-
by-case basis if the oral report has been received within twenty-four
(24) hours.
(4) Bypass
. (a) Bypass is prohibited, and the City Manager may take an enforcement
action against a User for a bypass, unless:
1. The bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal
injury, or severe property damage;
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 43
2. There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the
use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated
wastes, or maintenance during normal periods of equipment
downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate back-up
equipment should have been installed in the exercise of
reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which
occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or
preventive maintenance; and
3. The User submitted notices as required under subsection (3)
of this paragraph.
(b) The City Manager may approve an anticipated bypass, after
considering its adverse effects, if the City Manager determines that
it will meet the three conditions listed in subsection (4)(a) of this
paragraph.
Sec. 9.5-205.16. Pretreatment Charges and Fees; Surcharges
A. The City may adopt reasonable fees for reimbursement of costs of setting up and
operating the City's pretreatment program, which may include:
(1) Fees for wastewater discharge permit applications including the cost of
processing the applications;
(2) Fees for monitoring, inspection, and surveillance procedures including the
cost of collection and analyzing a User's discharge, and reviewing
monitoring reports submitted by Users;
(3) Fees for reviewing and responding to accidental discharge procedures and
construction;
(4) Fees for filing appeals;
(5) Recovery of administrative and legal costs associated with enforcement
activity taken by the City Manager to address industrial User
noncompliance.
(6) Other fees as the City may deem necessary to carry out the requirements
contained herein. These fees relate solely to the matters covered by this
article and are separate from all other fees, fines, and penalties chargeable
by the City;
(7) Fees for treating abnormal strength wastes; and
(8) Fees incurred from an upset, bypass, or unauthorized discharge.
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 44
B. Surcharge
The City may surcharge Industrial Users for the treatment of abnormal
strength wastes. Water or wastes having (1) a five-day biochemical oxygen
demand greater than two hundred fifty (250) parts per million (ppm) by weight,
or (2) containing more than two hundred fifty (250) parts per million by weight of
total suspended solids, shall be subject to the review and approval of the City
Manager. Where the City Manager has approved the admission of(1) and/or(2)
above into the POTW, that discharge may be subject to a surcharge as
determined by the City Manager. In no case shall a discharge be accepted that
will prevent the POTW from meeting its NPDES or TPDES limits.
(1) The surcharge will be assessed according to the following formula each
month using the most current pollutant concentration data and the-current
month's wastewater flow:
Surcharge = Q x [a(BOD —x) + b(TSS —y)][8.34]
1,000,000
Where:
Q = flow in gallons
8.34 = weight in pounds of one gallon of water
x = normal limits of BOD in domestic wastewater expressed in milligrams
per liter
y = normal limits of TSS in domestic wastewater expressed in milligrams
per liter
a = unit cost of treatment per pound of BOD
b = unit cost of treatment per pound of TSS
(2) A surcharge is an additional charge by the POTW for the increased cost of
handling discharge of unusual strength and character and shall not serve
as a variance to the requirements of this article. Exercise of this provision
shall not be a bar to, or a prerequisite for, taking any other action against
the User.
Sec. 9.5-205.17. Severability
If any provision of this article is invalidated, by any court of competent jurisdiction,
the remaining provisions shall not be affected and shall continue in full force and effect.
Sec. 9.5-205.18. Penalty
A. Civil Penalties
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 45
(1) A User who has violated, or continues to violate, any provision of this article,
a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other
pretreatment standard or requirement, shall be liable to the City for a
maximum civil penalty of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) per violation, per
day. In the case of a monthly or other long-term average discharge limit,
penalties shall accrue for each day during the period of the violation.
(2) The City Manager may recover reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, and
other expenses associated with enforcement activities, including sampling
and monitoring expenses, and the cost of any actual damages incurred by
the City.
(3) In determining the amount of civil liability, the Court shall take into account
all relevant circumstances, including, but not limited to, the extent of harm
caused by the violation, the magnitude and duration of the violation, any
economic benefit gained through the User's violation, corrective actions by
the User, the compliance history of the User, and any other factor as justice.
requires.
(4) Filing a suit for civil penalties shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite
for, taking any other action against a User.
B. Criminal Prosecution
(1) A User who violates intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or negligently any
provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued
hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement shall, upon
conviction, be guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not more
than Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) per violation, per day.
(2) A User who intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or negligently introduces
any substance into the POTW which causes personal injury or property
damage shall, upon conviction, be guilty of a misdemeanor and be subject
to the same penalties described in Section 9.5-209.5-209.5-205.18(B)(1) of
this article. This penalty shall be in addition to any other cause of action for
personal injury or property damage available under state law.
(3) A User who makes any false statements, representations, or certifications
in any application, record, report, plan, or other documentation filed, or
required to be maintained, pursuant to this article, wastewater discharge
permit, or order issued hereunder, or who falsifies, tampers with, or
knowingly renders inaccurate any monitoring device or method required
under this chapter shall, upon conviction, be subject to the same penalties
described in division Section 9.5-209.5-209.5-205.18(B)(1) of this article.
C:\Users\ashelley\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\KVUZGB3B\2024-05-09 Southlake Ordinance(Final For
Council)(002).docx Page 46
(4) CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY. A person is criminally responsible for a
violation of this article if that person intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or
negligently:
(a) Commits or assists in the commission of a violation, or causes or
permits another person to commit a violation, of this article; or
(b) Owns or manages the property or facilities determined to be the
