A.    Any noncategorical industry which is not in compliance with the city's ordinance limitations must develop a compliance schedule during which time the industry must meet the city's standards. The schedule should contain increments of progress which correspond to specific dates for their completion. These represent major events leading to the operation of pretreatment equipment to meet the city's pretreatment standards. All dischargers subject to these conditions must submit a progress report to the city no later than fourteen days following each date in the compliance schedule. This report must include whether it complied with the increment of progress to be met on that date, the reason for delay if the date was not met, and the steps being taken to return to compliance. In no event can more than nine months elapse between progress reports.

    B.    A compliance schedule may be required when conditions described in subsection A of this section are met. The schedule shall contain progress increments in the form of dates for the commencement and completion of major events leading to the construction and operation of additional pretreatment required for the user to meet the applicable pretreatment standards (such events including hiring an engineer, completing preliminary and final plans, executing contracts for major components, commencing and completing construction, beginning and conducting routine operation). No increment referred to above shall exceed nine months. The industrial user shall submit a report to the director no later than fourteen days following each data in the schedule and the final date of compliance including, as a minimum, whether or not it complied with the increment of progress, the reason for any delay, and, if appropriate, the steps being taken by the industrial user to return to the established schedule. In no event shall more than nine months elapse between such progress reports to the director. (Ord. 99-16 (part), 1999)
