Wastewater Source Control Section (WSCS)
Providing Pollution Prevention & Education to Our Customers
WSCS serves approximately 70 industrial customers. An industrial sewer customer can be defined in several ways, including any business that:
- discharges more than 25,000 gallons per day of wastewater to the sewer
- is subject to certain US Environmental Agency regulations (examples include metal finishers or electroplaters)
Per 40 CFR §403.12(i), POTWs with approved Pretreatment Programs shall provide the Approval Authority with a report that briefly describes the POTW's program activities. Each year, WSCS submits to the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board a report containing information about permitted industries as well as pretreatment and source reduction activities.
