maintain at least the same level of

treatment as when the equivalent mass

limit was established.

(c) If a categorical Participating

Industrial User of the Owatonna Waste

Water Treatment Facility has

demonstrated through sampling and

other technical factors, including a

comparison of three years of effluent

data with background data, that

pollutants regulated through categorical

Pretreatment Standards, other than 40

CFR part 414, are not expected to be

present in quantities greater than the

background influent concentration to

the industrial process, the City of

Owatonna may reduce the sampling

frequency specified in § 403.8(f)(2)(v) to

once during the term of the categorical

Participating Industrial User’s permit.

(d) If a Participating Industrial User is

discharging to the Owatonna Waste

Water Treatment Facility in Owatonna,

Minnesota and is subject to a categorical

Pretreatment Standard other than one

codified at 40 CFR part 414, the City of

Owatonna may authorize the

Participating Industrial User to forego

sampling of a pollutant if the

Participating Industrial User has

demonstrated through sampling and

other technical factors, including a

comparison of three years of effluent

data with background data, that the

pollutant is not expected to be present

in quantities greater than the

background influent concentration to

the industrial process, and the

Participating Industrial User certifies on

each report, with the following

statement, that there has been no

increase in the pollutant in its

wastestream due to activities of the

Participating Industrial User. The

following statement is to be included as

a comment to the periodic reports

required by § 403.12(e):

‘‘Based on my inquiry of the person or

persons directly responsible for managing

compliance with the pretreatment standard

for 40 CFR lll, I certify that, to the best

of my knowledge and belief, the raw

materials, industrial processes, and potential

by-products have not contributed this

pollutant to the wastewaters since filing of

the last periodic report under 40 CFR

403.12(e).’’

(e) If the average daily loading from

the Participating Industrial Users to the

Owatonna Waste Water Treatment

Facility is equal to or less than 0.68

pounds per day of chromium, 0.25

pounds per day of copper, 1.17 pounds

per day of nickel, and 1.01 pounds per

day of zinc, Owatonna may authorize a

categorical Participating Industrial User

to satisfy the reporting requirements of

§ 403.12(e) with an annual report

provided on a date specified by

Owatonna, provided that the

Participating Industrial User has no

reasonable potential to violate a

Pretreatment Standard for any pollutant

for which reduced monitoring is being

allowed, and has not been in Significant

Noncompliance within the previous

three years.

(f) The Owatonna Waste Water

Treatment Facility in Owatonna,

Minnesota shall post public notice of all

Significant Noncompliance subject to

the publication requirement in

§ 403.8(f)(2)(vii) at the Minnesota

Pollution Control Agency website for a

period of one year, as soon as

practicable upon identifying the

violations. In addition, the Owatonna

Waste Water Treatment Facility shall

post an explanation of how Significant

Noncompliance is determined, and a

contact name and phone number for

information regarding other, nonSignificant Noncompliance violations. If

a violation is not corrected within thirty

(30) calendar days or results in pass

through or interference at the Owatonna

Waste Water Treatment Facility,

publication must also be made in the

format specified in § 403.8(f)(2)(vii).

(g) The provisions of this section shall

expire on October 6, 2005.
