Section 2244 - Prohibitions or Restrictions on Additional Discharges to Community Sewer Systems(a) The purpose of prohibitions or restrictions on additional discharges is to prevent an increase in violation or likelihood of violation of waste discharge requirements during a period of violation or threatened violation of requirements and thereby prevent an increase in unreasonable impairment of water quality or an increase in nuisance.(b) Prohibitions or appropriate restrictions on additional discharges should be included in a cease and desist order if the further addition in volume, type, or concentration of waste entering the sewer system would cause an increase in violation of waste discharge requirements or increase the likelihood of violation of requirements.(c) Additional discharges should not be restricted or prohibited when violation of requirements can be immediately corrected.(d) Prohibitions or restrictions are not to be used as a punitive measure for past failure to comply.(e) Prohibitions or restrictions, when adopted, should include but not be limited to new residential, commercial, industrial, and/or governmental connections as deemed appropriate.(f) Upon adoption of any cease and desist order which contains a prohibition or restriction on additional discharges, the regional board shall send written notification to all appropriate local agencies.Cal.
