A. The city reserves the right to inspect any existing lateral or collecting sewers that discharge wastewater directly or indirectly to trunk sewers. If it is found that such lateral or collecting sewers are improperly used or improperly maintained, thereby causing discharge of septic wastewater, excessive groundwater, debris or any other objectionable substance to the city’s sewers, the city engineer will give notice of the unsatisfactory condition to the offending discharger and shall direct that the condition be corrected.

B. In cases of continued noncompliance with the city’s directive, the city may disconnect the offending sewer from the city’s sewerage system.

C. Industrial sewer users shall notify the city immediately of all discharges that could cause problems to the city’s sewerage system, including any slug discharges, as defined in Section 14.12.030, by the industrial user. (Ord. 4740 § 1, 2013; Ord. 3667 § 1, 1995)
