Apply for exemption from the permit requirement for the discharge of wastewater into private wastewater plants

Description

If you want to discharge wastewater into a private wastewater plant, you can be exempted from the permit requirement for wastewater discharge under certain conditions.

For certain industries and activities (such as the chemical industry, paper production, metal processing, cooling water utilization), pollutants are to be expected in wastewater that are not sufficiently cleaned in a municipal sewage treatment plant. Requirements for this are laid down in the sector-specific annexes of the Wastewater Ordinance.

In order to comply with these requirements, special measures and waste water pre-treatment plants are required to reduce the pollutant load in such a way that the waste water can then be treated without damage in a public or private sewage treatment plant.

 

You can be exempted from the permit requirement for the discharge of wastewater into a private wastewater plant if you ensure compliance with the legal requirements through a contract with the operator of the private wastewater plant.

The required documentation depends on the wastewater (industrial wastewater, commercial wastewater) that is to be discharged into the private sewage plant.

  • Application
  • Contractual arrangements between the discharger of the wastewater and the operator of the private wastewater plant

Contact the water authority in your county or county-level city.

  • They complete the application documents and submit them to the competent authority with all the necessary documents.
  • The competent authority will examine your application.
  • If all the necessary requirements are met, your application will be approved.
  • You will receive an exemption from the permit requirement for the discharge of wastewater into private wastewater plants.
