§ 202-8. Maintenance of enhanced treatment units and holding tanks.

A. 

All enhanced treatment units (ETUs) are required to have a service contract with a certified manufacturer's representative, which provides for annual inspections or inspections at intervals specified by the manufacturer, whichever is stricter, as well as subsequent necessary adjustments by a certified manufacturer's representative for the life of the unit. Within 10 days of an inspection, a written report, which documents the results of the inspection and provides a written certification from the certified manufacturer's representative that the unit is fully functional and operating properly and is under a service contract, shall be sent to the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to hold a service contract, complete the required inspections, send the required inspection reports to the authority having jurisdiction, and/or complete the certified manufacturer's representative's maintenance schedule is a violation of this chapter and shall be punishable according to Article VII of this chapter.

B. 

Holding tanks. All holding tanks shall meet the design standards contained in New York State Department of Health's Appendix 75-A of Part 75 of Title 10 of the New York Code of Rules and Regulations (10 NYCRR). The owner shall have a contract for service with a NYSDEC-permitted septage waste transporter to pump the holding tank as needed. A copy of all pump-out records shall be submitted to the authority having jurisdiction. At no time will sewage discharge from the tank to the surface, ground, or surface water be allowed.
