in effect14.12.235 - Flow measurement.
Any industrial user who discharges 25,000 gallons per day or more of industrial wastewater, or as required by the Director, shall install a continuous monitoring flow meter capable of measuring the industrial user's entire industrial wastewater discharged to the POTW. The user shall record and log the flow on a daily basis. The flow meter shall conform to standards issued by the Director. The user shall report the flow meter type and size to the Director before installation. The flow meter shall be equipped with a non-resetting flow totalizer and a recorder that records the time, day, date and volume of discharge, and can generate daily summaries of instantaneous maximum and total flow for record keeping. All flow meters shall be calibrated as often as necessary to ensure accuracy of the actual flow discharged, within plus or minus five percent. Industries shall perform calibration by an independent company as frequently as is necessary, or at no less than once per year or the minimum manufacturer's recommended time interval if sooner. All flow meter installations shall have the flow meter size, type, totalizer units, and flow multipliers posted in a conspicuous place near the flow meter recorder.
