Munici~ities which received funding frcm the federal or state construction grants program or the State Revolving Fund (loan pro,ram) face certain requirements in the area of ordinances. We have sample ordinances and charge systems which you can use to create your own documents. If you have questions concerning ordinances, charge systems, rate setting, or whether you must meet the requirements of specific funding programs, please contact Deb Lindlief at 1-800-657-3864. Question 69. An eguipment replacement account cOntains funds set aside for replacement of eqult~ent that will wear out during the life of the system. Such an account should be part of your operation and maintenance budget. Depreciation information will provide the dollar amounts to be set aside each year for this account. This both ensures adequate funding for equit~_nt replacement and he~ps your municipality avoid ecaer~ency funding problems. Question 76.5. Your sewer use ordinance should require annual notification of cost to all userD. Users should be notified annually re~ard~ng what is enccmpassed in the user 'charge. Question 78.1. Since you have individual sewage treatment systems (such as on-site septic tanks), your sewer use ordinance should deal with such systems. As one aspect of municipal wastewater treatment, you should require inspection and maintenance plans for such systems. As of january 1, 1998, all existi.n_$ ordinances governing individual sewage treatment systems must cc~ply with Minn. R., ch. 7080 and must be sutxaitted to the Agency for review. Question 78.4. When new hc~es are constructed in your service area, you should consider what is the optimal approach to treating the resulting wastewater. Any new construction should be consistent with your municipality's long-range development plans. All new construction or replacement of an individual sewage treatment system (such as an on-site septic tank) requires a cc~pliance inspection by a firm licensed to inspect individual sewage treatment systems.
