10. PUBLIC ITEMS <br />10.A. PUBLIC HEARING <br />10.A.1. ORDINANCE AMENDING AND RESTATING CHAPTER 201, PART III <br />(INDUSTRIAL PRETREATMENT REGULATIONS) OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY <br />CODE (LEGISLATIVE) <br />PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR HEARING IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />County Attorney Alan S. Polackwich, Sr. stated that since 1994, Part III of Chapter 201 <br />of County Code has set forth the regulations required for certain industrial facilities to pretreat <br />wastewater before it is discharged into the County treatment system. He revealed that the Code <br />was amended in 2007 to keep up with Federal and State law, and that in order to comply with <br />changes in the industrial pretreatment regulations, another update is required by Ordinance. <br />Director of Utilities Erik Olson noted that a copy of the proposed Ordinance and notice of <br />the public hearing has been sent to the single facility in the County that meets the criteria for <br />compliance with the pretreatment regulations. He also explained for Commissioner Davis why, <br />in addition to the Federal and State laws, the County needs its own Ordinance regulating the <br />industrial pretreatment of wastewater. <br />The Chairman opened the Public Hearing. <br />Bob Johnson, Coral Wind Subdivision, wanted to know which industrial facility would <br />have to comply with the Ordinance. <br />Director Olson revealed that Parker Hannifin Corporation was currently the only <br />company subject to the pretreatment regulations, with the possibility that INEOS New Planet <br />BioEnergy could become subject to the regulations in the future. <br />May 8, 2012 8 <br />MC 142 PG 418 <br />
