Resumen

These Regulations prohibit the discharge of industrial effluent into a waste water system, either through a sewer connection or by carting away through waste water carriers to an approved waste water disposal station, without a licence to discharge industrial effluent into a waste water system. An application for a licence referred to in paragraph shall be made to the Waste Water Management Authority (WMA) in the form set out in the First Schedule. Where the Authority has reason to believe that the licensee has failed to comply with a condition of his licence, the Authority may revoke the licence, after having given the licensee an opportunity to show cause in writing within a period of 30 working days why his licence should not be revoked. The permissible limit of pollutant to be discharged as industrial effluent into a waste water system shall be as specified in the Fourth Schedule. A licensee shall install such pre-treatment system as the Authority may approve to ensure that any discharge of industrial effluent complies with the permissible limit of pollutant specified in the Fourth Schedule. In case pollutants exceeds limits, the polluter shall pay a penalty as specified in the Fifth Schedule in respect of each pollutant. The licensee shall forthwith notify the Authority of any accident or spill resulting in an increase in the concentration or load of pollutants contained in the industrial effluent and shall take immediate corrective action (also on order of the WMA) to lower the level of pollutant in order to comply with the permissible limit specified in the Fourth Schedule.
