15.30.110 Transfer.
Wastewater discharge permits may be reassigned or transferred to a new owner and/or operator only if the permittee gives at least 90 days’ advance notice to the City and the City approves the transfer. The notice must include a written certification by the new owner and/or operator that:
A. States that the new owner and/or operator has no immediate intent to change the facility’s operations and processes;
B. States the date on which the transfer is to occur; and
C. Assumes full responsibility for complying with the existing wastewater discharge permit beginning on the date of the transfer.
Failure to provide advance notice of a transfer renders the wastewater discharge permit void as of the date of facility transfer.
Provided that the notice required above occurred and that there were no significant changes to the manufacturing operation or wastewater discharge, the new owner will be considered an existing user and will be covered by the existing limits and requirements in the previous owner’s permit.
