Industrial Pretreatment

The Industrial Pretreatment Program is designed to protect the municipal wastewater
treatment facility and the environment from adverse impacts that could occur when
hazardous or toxic wastes are discharged to the sanitary sewer.Protection is achieved by the regulation of primarily non-domestic users discharging toxic or strong industrial wastes. There are four (4) major problems that can be prevented by the implementation of a pretreatment program:
- Interference with wastewater treatment facility operations
- Pass through of pollutants
- Municipal sludge contamination
- Exposure of workers to chemical hazards
