1 1.3 Bypass <br />(a) A user may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause pretreatment standards or requirements to <br />be violated, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These <br />bypasses are not subject to the provision of paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section. <br />(b) <br />(c) <br />(1) If a user knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice to the <br />Executive Director at least ten (10) days before the date of the bypass, if possible. <br />(2) A user shall submit oral notice to the Executive D' - ector of an unanticipated bypass that <br />exceeds applicable pretreatment standards within twenty -four (24) hours f the time it <br />becomes aware of the bypass. A written submission shall also be provided within five (S) <br />days of this time the user becomes aware of the bypass. The written submission shall contain <br />a description of the bypass and its cause; the duration of the bypass, including exact dates <br />and times, and, if the bypass has not been corrected, the anticipated time it is expected to <br />continue; and steps taken or planned to reduce, eliminate, and prevent reoccurrence of the <br />bypass. The Executive Director may waive the written report on a case -by -case basis if the <br />oral report has been received within twenty -four (24) hours. <br />(1) Bypass is prohibited, and the Executive Director may take an enforcement action against a <br />user for a bypass, unless <br />(i) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property <br />damage; <br />(ii) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary <br />treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes, or maintenance during normal <br />periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate back -up <br />equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering <br />judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment <br />downtime or preventive maintenance; and <br />(iii) The user submitted notices as required under paragraph (b) of this section. <br />(2) The Executive Director may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse <br />effects, if the Executive Director determines that it will meet the three conditions listed in <br />paragraph (c)(1) of this section. <br />SECTION 12 — RECONNECTION OF UTILITY SERVICE AFTER TERMINATION <br />(a) Any person applying for water or sewer service after the termination of water or sewer service pursuant to any <br />provision of this ordinance shall not receive such service without written approval of the Executive Director or <br />his designee. <br />(b) WSACC shall approve such application under the following conditions: <br />W <br />Attachment number 8 <br />H -3 Page 311 <br />
