The superintendent shall inspect the facilities of any user to ascertain whether the
purpose of this article is being met and all requirements are being occupied with.
Persons or occupants of premises where wastewater is created or discharged shall allow
the superintendent ready access at reasonable times to all parts of the premises for
the purposes of inspection, sampling, records examination or in the performance of
any duties imposed hereunder. Any temporary or permanent obstruction to safe and easy
access to the facility to be inspected and/or sampled shall be promptly removed by
the user at the written or verbal request of the superintendent and shall not be replaced.
The costs of clearing such access shall be borne by the user. Unreasonable delays
in allowing the superintendent access to the user's premises shall be a violation
of this article. The POTW and the approval authority 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 their security guards
so that upon presentation of suitable identification, personnel from the POTW and
approval authority will be permitted to enter, without delay, for the purposes of
performing their specific responsibilities.
