Legal Documents of Jefferson City

Monitoring facilities. The city requires the user to provide and operate, at the user's expense, monitoring facilities to allow inspection, sampling, and flow measurement of the building sewer and/or internal drainage systems. The monitoring facility should normally be situated on the user's premises, but the city may, when such a location would be impractical or cause undue hardship to the user, allow the facility to be constructed in the public street or sidewalk area and located so that it will not be obstructed by landscaping or parked vehicles.

There shall be ample room in or near such sampling manhole or facility to allow accurate sampling and preparation of samples for analysis. The facility, sampling, and measuring equipment shall be maintained at all times in a safe and proper operating condition at the expense of the user.

Whether constructed on public or private property, the sampling and monitoring facilities shall be provided in accordance with the city's requirements and all applicable local construction standards and specifications. Construction shall be completed in accordance with written notification by the city.

Inspection and sampling. The city will inspect the facilities of any user to ascertain whether the user is complying with the requirements of this policy. Persons or occupants of premises where wastewater is created or discharged shall allow the city, approval authority and EPA or their representative's access at all reasonable times to all parts of the premises for the purposes of inspection, sampling, records examination, copying and otherwise performing their duties. The city, approval authority and EPA shall have the right to set up on the user's property such devices as are necessary to conduct

sampling, inspection, compliance monitoring and/or metering operations.

Where a user has security measures in force which would require proper identification and clearance before entry into their premises, the user shall make necessary arrangements with his security guards so that upon presentation of suitable identification, personnel from the city, approval authority and EPA will be permitted to enter, without delay, for the purposes of performing their specific responsibilities. Denial of the public works director's, approval authority's, or EPA's access to the user's premises shall be a violation of this policy. Unreasonable delays in allowing entry and/or inspection shall constitute denial of access.
