Proposed Amendments to Industrial Pretreatment Regulations

Massachusetts Water Resources Authority

MWRA is proposing to amend the following regulations: Adjudicatory Proceedings (360 CMR 1.00), Enforcement and Administrative Penalties (360 CMR 2.00), and Sewer Use (360 CMR 10.000). On February 20, 2019, the MWRA Board of Directors authorized MWRA staff to publish notice of the proposed amendments for public comment.

MWRA’s Adjudicatory Proceedings, Enforcement and Administrative Penalty, and Sewer Use Regulations are required by EPA for its Industrial Pretreatment Program, which is administered by MWRA’s Toxic Reduction and Control (TRAC) department.  The Adjudicatory Proceedings Regulations govern the formal administrative appeal process in the event of disagreements over permit or enforcement actions.  The Enforcement and Administrative Penalty Regulations and the Sewer Use Regulations are derived from EPA’s federal pretreatment regulations found at 40 CFR Part 403, et seq., and set conditions for use of MWRA and municipal sewers, including charges for obtaining and holding a permit.  They also provide for enforcement for noncompliance with MWRA regulations and permits.
