A. Users shall procure and properly install, operate, and maintain the pretreatment facilities which, combined with appropriate best management practices, are necessary to achieve AKART as defined herein. Such pretreatment facilities shall be designed to achieve compliance with all applicable pretreatment standards and requirements within the time limitations specified by the EPA or the state, whichever is more stringent. Detailed plans showing the pretreatment facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the Department for review and approval in accordance with the procedures of Chapter 173-240 WAC, and shall be disclosed to the city of Monroe before construction of the facility. The review of such plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve the user from the responsibility of modifying its facility as necessary to produce a discharge acceptable to the city of Monroe and/or the Department and meet discharge limitations under the provisions of this chapter. Such facilities shall be provided, operated, and maintained at the user’s expense.

B. Users shall comply with approved engineering reports, plans and specifications, and operations and maintenance manuals, and shall modify such documents to reflect any proposed modifications of industrial wastewater (pretreatment) facilities. Users shall submit proposals to modify pretreatment facilities to the Department before implementation in accordance with Chapter 173-240 WAC. Users shall submit a copy of such revised plans and the Department’s acceptance to the director before implementing changes to approved pretreatment facilities. The director may audit the compliance of any user, and require changes in operating procedures deemed necessary by the director to ensure continued compliance with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements.
