§ 28-29. Monitoring facilities.
Oakdale Municipal Code · 2026-07 edition · updated 2026-09-27 · Oakdale
(a) Users who propose to discharge, or who in the judgment of the director could discharge now or in the future, nondomestic waste in violation of the provisions of these regulations may be required to install a monitoring facility, which may include sampling or metering equipment.
(b) Monitoring facilities required to be installed shall be constructed and paid for by the user and shall be operated and maintained by the city at the user's expense.
(c) The monitoring facility and its location on the user's premises outside of the building will be approved by the director. When such location would be impractical or cause undue hardship on the user, the director may allow the facility to be constructed in the public street or sidewalk area, with the approval of the city and located so that it will not be obstructed by the landscaping or parked vehicles.
(d) If the monitoring facility is inside a fence, there shall be accommodations to allow safe and immediate access for city personnel, such as a gate secured with a city lock. There shall be ample room in or near such facility to allow accurate sampling and composition of samples for analyses. The entire facility and the sampling and measuring equipment shall be maintained at all times in a safe and proper operating condition by and at the expense of the user.
(e) Monitoring facilities shall be constructed in accordance with the city's requirements and in accordance with all applicable construction standards and specifications. When, in the judgment of the director, an existing user requires a monitoring facility, the user will be so notified in writing, and construction must be completed within ninety days following written notification unless a time extension is otherwise granted by the city. [Ord. No. 679, § 1(part), 1976.]
§ 28-30. Access to the system. [Ord. No. 679, § 1(part), 1976.]
Access to service connections and appurtenances shall be provided for the city at all times. The city may inspect the facilities of any user to ascertain whether the purpose of this chapter is being met and all requirements are being complied with. Persons or occupants of premises where waste is created or discharged shall allow the city ready access at all reasonable times to all parts of the premises for the purpose of inspection or sampling or in the performance of any of its duties.
§ 28-31. Inspection and sampling. [Ord. No. 679, § 1 (part), 1976.]
The city shall have the right to set up on the industrial user's property such devices as are necessary to conduct sampling or metering operations. When a user has security measures in force which would require proper identification and clearance before entry into user's premises, the user shall make necessary arrangements with its security guards so that upon presentation of suitable identification, personnel from the city will be permitted to enter without delay for the purpose of performing their specific responsibilities. If monitoring facilities are not operating properly, grab samples may be taken and used to determine charges and sewage content.
§ 28-32. Pretreatment. [Ord. No. 679, § 1 (part), 1976.]
The city will require pretreatment of waste prior to entering public sewers if it exceeds the limitations of this chapter, or if it exceeds the acceptable limits prescribed by agencies of the state or federal governments.

OAKDALE CITY CODE
§ 28-38
Any user's facilities which pretreat waste shall be provided and maintained at the user's expense. Detailed plans showing the pretreatment facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the city for review, and shall be approved by the director before construction of the facility. The review and approval of such plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve the user from the responsibility for modifying the facility as necessary to produce an effluent complying with the provisions of this chapter or the requirements of other regulatory agencies. Any subsequent changes in the pretreatment facilities or method of operation shall be reported to and be approved by the director prior to construction or installation.
