As a industrial/commercial facility you can
expect a "walk through" inspection from a member
of the Environmental Division. The purpose of a
walk through inspection is a multi-phased
approach to determine if your facility will need
a discharge permit. Typically, an investigator
will walk through your facility and ask simple
questions such as; how much water do you use per
day, how much wastewater is discharged to the
sewer per day, and review operations conducted
on-site. With this information the investigator
will determine if your facility is subject to
any local or federal regulations.
If your facility is subject to a
local ordinance or federal regulation then
you will be asked to complete a Discharge
Application and submit it to the Environmental
Division for review. When it is reviewed, your
facility will be placed into one of two
categories. These categories are based on
standards established by federal guidance and
provide the most suitable application to the
industrial/commercial community. There is no
charge if a permit is issued to your facility.
If you feel your facility may be subject to a
local or federal regulation and have not been
visited by the Environmental Division, please
telephone (480) 350-2678 or contact us by
email. |
