Part 7049.0710 - MONITORING OF SIGNIFICANT INDUSTRIAL USERS
Each POTW authority shall obtain from its significant industrial users specific information on the quality and quantity of each significant industrial user's discharge to the POTW. Except when specifically requested by the POTW authority and approved by the agency, the information shall be obtained by representative monitoring conducted by the POTW or by the significant industrial user under requirements imposed by the POTW in the significant industrial user's individual control mechanism. A request to obtain information using a different method shall demonstrate that the alternate provides adequate information on the discharge from the significant industrial user. Monitoring performed to comply with this part shall include all pollutants for which the significant industrial user is significant and shall be representative of the significant industrial user's discharge to the POTW. Except as provided in part 7049.0570, subpart 2, POTWs shall obtain significant industrial user monitoring data at least twice annually. The POTW shall require frequency of monitoring necessary to assess and ensure compliance by industrial users with required pretreatment standards and requirements.
