CITY ENGINEER/UTILITIES DIRECTOR 150 N.LAKESHORE DRIVE•OCOEE,FLORIDA 34761 (407)656-2322 MEMORANDUM DATE: May 27, 1994 TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners FROM: James W. Shira, P.E. City Engineer/Utiliti Director SUBJECT: Regulation of Sewer Use xxxxxxsxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ===xx=SIC xxxxxxx Attached for your review is a proposed new ordinance regulating the discharge of certain types of wastewater into the City of Ocoee sanitary sewer system to minimize disruption to our wastewater treatment process. An ordinance of this nature is required by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection as a condition of our wastewater treatment plant operating permit. The proposed ordinance will provide us with a means to regulate the type and strength of wastes discharged into the city's sewer system. Efficient operation of the wastewater treatment system depends on the waste stream being fairly uniform in content and quantity. This means that the system should not be subjected to high temperatures, sudden large increases in flow, or to acids, oils, greases, heavy metals, or other chemicals, materials or conditions in concentrations which might harm the biological or mechanical components of the system. As discharged by a facility into the sewer system, these substances are known collectively as industrial wastewater. This ordinance requires that an Industrial Wastewater Treatment Permit be obtained by any facility that discharges industrial wastewater into the city's sewer system, and sets criteria for monitoring and testing of individual discharge points. Facilities which cannot meet the minimum wastewater standards established by this ordinance will be required to implement pretreatment processes to make the wastewater discharge comply with the requirements. A method of computing a wastewater utility surcharge is also included in the ordinance. This surcharge will be applied to the monthly bill of any facility which fails to meet the established standards as determined by laboratory testing of the facility's wastewater. I recommend that the City Commission authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the proposed ordinance. o' THE PRIDE OF WEST ORANGE ORDINANCE NO. 94- 18 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OCOEE, FLORIDA RELATING TO INDUSTRIAL AND SPECIAL USERS OF THE CITY SEWER SYSTEM; ESTABLISHING A NEW SECTION VIII OF CHAPTER 173 OF THE CODE REGULATING WASTEWATER SYSTEM USE; ESTABLISHING DEFINITIONS; PROVIDING CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR INDUSTRIAL AND SPECIAL USERS; ESTABLISHING PRETREATMENT STANDARDS; PROHIBITING CERTAIN DISCHARGES TO THE WASTEWATER SYSTEM; PROVIDING AUTHORITY FOR INSPECTIONS; ESTABLISHING SURCHARGES FOR NONCONFORMING DISCHARGES; ESTABLISHING METERING AND SAMPLING REQUIREMENTS; ESTABLISHING FLOW AND CONCENTRATION CONTROLS; PROVIDING FOR PENALTIES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
