The connection of the building sewer shall be made at a wye branch, if such branch is available. The building service sewer shall generally enter the sewer main or lateral by way of an existing wye. In the event of absence of the wye, the connection to the sewer main or lateral shall be made of one of the methods indicated below:
1. Installation of a manhole.
2. Circular saw-cut of sewer main by proper tools (sewer tap ma chine or similar), and proper installation of hub wye saddle, in accordance with manufacturer's recommendation. The method shall not be allowed when the wye branch is larger than 4 inches in diameter.

3. Using the pipe cutter only, neatly and accurately cut out desired length of pipe for insertion of proper fitting. Remove both hub and bell ends or other compression couplings from wye branch fitting to allow the wye branch to be inserted with no more than a total of one-half inch gap. Use "Band Sealt couplings or similar couplings, and shear rings and clamps to fasten the inserted fitting and hold it firmly in place. The entire section shall then be encased in concrete having a minimum thickness of 4 inches and extending 8 inches beyond each joint.
If another method is desired, a detail shall be submitted for review and approval by the village before the connection is made. Indiscriminate break ing of the sewer main pipe is not allowed.
On Site Inspection: After the wye branch has been inserted and jointed. and before any additional fittings have been placed in the service line, the installation shall be approved by the Superintendent or his authorized repre sentative.

(j) Old building sewers may be used in connection with new buildings only when they are found, on examination and test by the Superintendent, to meet all requirements of this chapter.
(k) Whenever possible, the building sewer shall be brought to the buildiná at an elevation below the basement floor. In all buildings in which any build ing drain is too low to permit gravity flow to the public sewer, sanitary sewage carried by such building drain shall be lifted by a means of a trash or grinder pump approved by the village.
(1) No person shall make connection of roof downspouts, exterior founda tion drains, areaway drains, or other sources of surface runoff or ground water to a building sewer or building drain which in turn is connected directly or indirectly to a public sanitary sewer.
(m) After the building sewer has been constructed in the trench but before the sewer is backfilled, the applicant for the building sewer permit shall notify the Superintendent that the building sewer is ready for inspection. If the sewer has been constructed properly, permission will be given to backfill the trench. If the sewer construction is found to be unsuitable, the permit applicant will correct the installation to meet village requirements.

(b) Industrial Cost Recovery 1. Each non-governmental industrial user shall pay that portion of any state grant which has been obtained by the Village of Colfax for the financing of the construction of wastéwater treatment works allocable to the treatment of the wastewater from such user. Such user's share shall not include an interest component.
2. An industrial user's portion of any state grant shall be based on the sum of the costs of each factor which significantly influences the cost of the treatment works attributable to the wastewater discharge of such user tributary to the wastewater treatment works of the Village of Colfax. Those significant factors shall be as follows:
A. Volume of waste discharged: This factor is equivalent to the water consumption by the user or, where water consumption does not reflect the actual quantity of wastewater tributary to the treatment works from such user, then the volume of flow as recorded in the control manhole required by Section 7. 06 (h) and Section 7. 09 (b) 19 shall be used.
B. Five-Day Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD): This factor, as defined in Section 7. 09 (a) shall be used to determine the strength of the waste discharged by such user. The numerical values of the BOD factor shall be obtained from samples collected from a control manhole as required by Section 7. 06 (h) and Section 7. 09 (b) 19. The SOD factor shall be con verted from the average milligrams per liter of SOD discharged to the ave rage pounds of DOD discharged. (Pounds of SOD equals milligrams per liter DOD times 8. 34 times the volume of waste discharged per billing period divided by 1, 000, 000.)

C. Suspended Solids: This factor, as defined in Section 7. 09 (a) shall be used to determine the strength of the waste discharged by such user. The numerical value of the suspended solid factor shall be obtained from. samples collected from a control manhole as required by Section 7. 06 (h) and Section 7. 09 (b). The suspended solids factor shall be converted from the average milligrams per liter of suspended solids discharged. (Pounds of suspended solids equals milligrams per liter of suspended solids times 8. 34 times the volume of waste discharged per billing period divided by
1, 000, 000.
3. The unit cost per wastewater characteristic factor shall be as follows:
A. 27. 2 cents per 1, 000 gallons of waste discharged;

4. The industrial cost recovery charge to be recovered from an industrial user shall be collected as described in Section 7. 09 (b) 5. The charge shall be the sum of the charges for volume, SOD and suspended solids, each of which shall be determined as follows:
A. Where the industrial waste discharge quantities are measured separately from the domestic discharge of such user, the in dustrial cost recovery amount shall be computed directly using unit costs in Section 7. 09 (b} 3.
B. Where the industrial waste discharge quantities are not separately measured from the domestic discharge of such user, the in dustrial cost recovery amount shall be determined as follows:
(1) Charge for volume discharge: Equals volume of dis charge as determined in Section 7. 09 (b) ZA minus an allowance for the normal domestic portion determined in accordance with Section 7. 09 (b) 20 times 27. 2 cents per 1, 000 gallons.
(2) Charge for SOD discharge: Equals 12. 5 cents times the average pounds of SOD discharge per billing period as defined in Section 7. 09 (b) 25 minus an allowance for the normal domestic portion determined in accordance with Section 7. 09 (b) 20 5.
(3) Charge for suspended solids discharge: Equals 7. 3 cents times the average pounds of suspended solids discharged per billing period as defined in Section 7. 09 (b) 2C minus an allowance for the normal domestic portion determined in accordance with Section 7. 09 (b) 20.

Any value calculated in Section 7. 09 (b) 4 that is equal to or less than zero shall not result in a monetary charge for that waste characteristic factor.
5. Each month during the industrial cost recovery period, each industrial user of the treatment works shall pay the cost recovery amount determined by Section 7. 09 (b) 4 for such industry. Where an industry is connected to a public sewer after the start-up of the facilities constructed under a federal grant, such industry shall only pay its portion of the federal grant for each month remaining in the recovery period. Such industry will not be required to pay for those months of the recovery period prior to con nection to a public sewer.
6. The industrial cost recc period shall be equal to the useful life of the treatment works which shall be 30 years from July 1978.
7. For the purpose of industrial cost recovery, the calendar year shall be divided into monthly periods, said periods to begin on the first day of the month and all industrial users of the Village of Colfax.shall pay the cost as determined by Section 7.09 (b) 4 for industrial cost recovery and such payments shall be made monthly and such charge shall be payable within 15 days after rendition thereof, and in the event such bills are not paid within said 15 days, a service charge of 5 percent shall be added thereto.
8. In the event the charges for industrial cost recovery are not paid within 30 days after rendition of that bill, then such service charges shall be deemed and are hereby declared to be delinquent, and thereafter such delinquent charge shall constitute a lien upon the real estate for which such sewer services were supplied.
The Village Clerk is hereby authorized and directed each month to file sworn statements showing such delinquencies in the office of the Recàrder of Deeds of McLean County, Illinois, and the filing of such statements shall be deemed notice of a lien for the payment of such charges for sewer service. If the delinquency in the payment of the recovery cost continues for a period of more than 30 days, the sewer and/or water service shall be discontinued.
9. The initial payment made by an industrial user which is con nected to a public

• sewer after the start-up of the treatment works constructed with a state grant shall be made by the next scheduled due date as defined in Section 7. 09 (b) 7.

10. If there is a change in the strength and/or volume introduced into the treatment works by an industrial user as determined by the previous year records, the village may adjust the user's portion of any state grant accordingly. Such change shall be determined by Section 7. 09 (b} 4 and Sec tion 7. 09 (b) 19.

11. If there is an expansion or upgrading of the treatment works utilizing a state grant, each existing industrial user's share shall be ad justed accordingly.
12. An industrial user's portion of any state grant for facilities expansion shall not include any portion of the grant amount allocable to un used or unreserved capacity, as long as the industry is connected to the existing facilities when the expansion is undertaken.
13. An industrial user's portion of any state grant shall include any firm commitment to the village of increased use by such user.
14. The village shall retain 50 percent of the amounts recovered from industrial users. The remainder, together with any interest earned thereon, shall be returned to the State of Illinois Anti-Pollution Fund on an annual basis.
15. Eighty percent of the retained amounts, together with interest earned thereon, shall be used solely for the eligible costs of the expansion of reconstruction of treatment works associated with the project and neces sary to meet the requirements of the Act. The village shall obtain the writ ten approval of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency prior to commit ment of the retained amounts for any expansion and reconstruction. The re mainder of the retained amounts may be used for such expenditures as the village deems appropriate.

19. The Superintendent shall maintain a program of monitoring industrial user discharges as the Superintendent deems necessary, provided that any major contributing industry shall be monitored no less than 12 times annually. All other industrial users shall be monitored at such frequency as deemed necessary by the Superintendent. Monitoring shall consist of taking and testing of grab samples or 24 hour composite samples as deemed necessary by the Superintendent for determination of the wastewater characteristic factors of the industrial user. The monitoring data collected shall be used to determine the industrial cost recovery charge in accordance with Section 7. 09 (b) 4.
20. There shall be no industrial cost recovery charge for a user if it is demonstrated to the Superintendent that the wastewater discharge consists entirely of employees' domestic wastes and wastes from sanitary conveniences. In computing the industrial cost recovery charge for in dustrial users, allowance will be made for the normal domestic portion of the wastewater discharge which consists of employees' domestic wastes and wastes from sanitary conveniences. Each industrial user shall be re quired to submit quarterly to the Village of Colfax the number of full time employee equivalents during the previous quarter. An employee equivalent shall be defined as 63 man-days (8 hours per day) per quarter. Unless data satisfactory to the Superintendent shows otherwise, the normal domestic portion of an industrial user's monthly wastewater discharge shall be esti mated as follows:
A. Flow shall be 20 gallons per working day times the number of employees times 21 working days.
B. BOD shall be 0 034 pounds per employee per working day times the number of employees times 21 working days.
