            (1) The name, address and telephone number of the applicant;

            (2) The location and legal description of the property to be covered by the permit;

            (3) A general statement of the type of operations conducted and to be conducted on the property;

            (4) A plat of the property showing accurately all sewers and drains;

            (5) A complete schedule of all process waters and industrial wastes produced or expected to be produced for discharge from the property, including a description of the character of each waste, the daily volume and maximum rates of discharge and representative analyses.

            b. All applications shall also require the applicant to agree:

            (1) To furnish at the request of the director any additional information relating to the installation or use of the industrial sewer for which the permit is sought;

            (2) To accept and abide by all provisions of this chapter and all other pertinent ordinances and regulations which may be adopted in the future;

            (3) To operate and maintain any waste pretreatment facilities, as may be required as a condition of the acceptance into the public sewers of the industrial wastes involved, in an efficient manner at all times, and at no expense to the city;

            (4) To cooperate at all times with the director in the inspecting, sampling and study of the industrial wastes and in the inspecting of any facilities provided for pretreatment; and

            (5) To notify the director immediately in the event of any accident, negligence or other occurrence with occasions discharged into the public sewers of any wastes or process waters not covered by the permit;

            (6) To provide and submit notices and reports as required by 40 CFR Section 403.12.

    3. If, after examination by the director of the information contained in an application for a permit hereunder, it is determined by the director that the characteristics of the proposed discharge do not conflict with the provisions of this chapter, a permit shall forthwith be issued allowing the discharge of such wastes to the public sewers; but, if it is determined by the director that the characteristics of the wastes are not in compliance with the provisions of this chapter, the application shall be denied by the director and the applicant forthwith advised in writing by the  director of steps which must be taken to insure compliance with the provisions of this chapter.  (Ord. 83/T-2039; S-39108, 1979).
