Industrial Pretreatment Program
The pretreatment program regulates industrial facilities discharging wastewater to publicly owned treatment works (POTWs). These facilities, known as industrial users, discharge process wastewater often contaminated by a variety of toxic or otherwise harmful substances. Because POTWs are usually not specifically designed to treat these substances, pretreatment programs are needed to eliminate potentially serious problems that occur when these substances are discharged into public sewer systems.
The goal of the Industrial Pretreatment Program is to ensure that the industrial entities within the City of Urbana comply with all of the applicable rules and requirements related to wastewater discharge. If it is determined that an industrial customer has violated a discharge prohibition or limitation, the City of Urbana utilizes the Enforcement Response Guide to assist in determining the ramifications of a violation. The Industrial Pretreatment Program is audited annually by the OEPA.
