[Adopted 9-18-2007 by L.L. No. 6-2007]
The purpose of this article is to provide for the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the Incorporated Village of Nissequogue through the regulation of nonstromwater discharges to the municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) to the maximum extent practicable as required by federal and state law. This article establishes methods for controlling the introduction of pollutants into the MS4 in order to comply with requirements of the SPDES General Permit for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems. The objectives of this article are:
Any material, including any substance, waste, or combination thereof, which because of its quantity, concentration, or physical, chemical, or infectious characteristics may cause, or significantly contribute to, a substantial present or potential hazard to human health, safely, property, or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, disposed of, or otherwise managed.
Any direct or indirect nonstormwater discharge to the MS4, except as exempted in § 95-6 of this article.
Owned or operated by the Incorporated Village of Nissequogue;
SPECIAL, CONDITIONS
An employee, the municipal engineer or other public official(s) designated by the Incorporated Village of Nissequogue to enforce this article. The SMO may also be designated by the municipality to accept and review stormwater pollution prevention plans, forward the plans to the applicable municipal board and inspect stormwater management practices.
TOTAL, MAXIMUM DAILY LOAD
Prohibition of illegal discharges. No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged into the MS4 any materials other than stormwater except as provided in § 95-6A(1). The commencement, conduct or continuance of any illegal discharge to the MS4 is prohibited except as described as follows:
Liquid level in the septic tank above the out let invert.
Cause or contribute to the municipality being subject to the special conditions as defined in § 95-2 Definitions, of this article.
Such activities include failing individual sewage treatment systems as defined in § 95-7, improper management of pet waste or any other activity that causes or contributes to violations of the municipality's MS4 SPDES permit authorization.
Best management practices. Where the SMO has identified illicit discharges as defined in § 95-2 or activities contaminating stormwater as defined in § 95-8, the municipality may require implementation of best management practices (BMPs) to control those illicit discharges and activities.
Any person responsible for a property or premises, which is, or may be, the source of an illicit discharge as defined in § 95-2 or an activity contaminating stormwater as defined in § 95-8, may be required to implement, at said person's expense, additional structural and nonstructural BMPs to reduce or eliminate the source of pollutant(s) to the MS4.
Individual sewage treatment systems: response to special conditions requiring no increase of pollutants or requiring a reduction of pollutants. Where individual sewage treatment systems are contributing to the municipality's being subject to the special conditions as defined in § 95-2 of this article, the owner or operator of such individual sewage treatment systems shall be required to:
Any person receiving a notice of violation may appeal the determination of the SMO to the Village Board of Trustees, Village of Nissequogue within 15 days of its issuance, which shall hear the appeal within 30 days after the filing of the appeal, and within five days of making its decision, file its decision in the office of the Municipal Clerk and mail a copy of its decision by certified mail to the discharger.
