BYLAW NO. 48 OF 2015
PAGE22
(2)
When sewer services are interrupted or terminated pursuant to
Subsection (1)(a), such attempt to notify the owner, applicant or occupant of the

otherwise provided in this Bylaw, in any other case, the termination or interruption
of sewer services may be effected without notice.
(3)
If sewer services are interrupted by reasons unknown or frozen
sanitary sewer connection, the Director of Public Works shall ascertain if the
place of the failure is between the sanitary sewer main and the property line of
the street abutting the land or building to which the sewer services are provided.
In the event that the place of the interruption is so situate, he shall take such
action as he deems reasonably necessary to remedy the failure or interruption.
Should such action require the installation of an automatic device requiring a
power supply, it shall be a condition of continued supply of sewer services to the
premises that the power supply be provided without cost to the City.
(4)
The owner or occupant of the premises supplied with sewer
services shall be responsible to make satisfactory repairs to that portion of the
sanitary sewer connection on his land from the property line of the street. If, after
receiving notice from the Director of Public Works to repair same, the owner or
occupant fails to effect repairs satisfactory to the Director of Public Works within
the time allowed in the notice, the Director of Public Works may enter upon the
premises and complete the necessary repairs with City forces or otherwise. The
owner and occupant shall be jointly and severally liable to pay the cost of the
repairs, calculated pursuant to the Custom Work Order Policy.
(5)
Water services and sewer services may be discontinued to any
premises, and the City may refuse to provide water services and sewer services
thereat if the applicant has failed to ensure that there is no breach of the terms
under which such services are provided to the premises.
BYLAW NO. 48 OF 2015
PAGE23
SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
22.
(1)
By sampling and analysis of the characteristics of the sewage being
discharged into the Sewage Works System from premises where sewage other
than standard sewage may be generated, the Director of Public Works shall from
time to time determine such characteristics and maintain a record of each such
analysis.
(2)
The Director of Public Works shall take all samples and make all
such analyses over a period which, in his opinion, will give sufficient data to
determine the characteristics of the average sewage from each such premises
referred to in Subsection (1 ).
23.
(1)
The value of any surcharge referred to in this Bylaw shall be
calculated and paid on the basis of the latest series of tests made by the Director
of Public Works pursuant to the most recent series of tests referred to in Section
22. Such surcharge shall not be changed until a subsequent series of tests
indicate that the sewage from the premises contains a concentration to which a
different surcharge is applicable.
(2)
If any person assessed a surcharge is of the opinion that the
degree of concentration in the sewage discharged from the premises has been
reduced by reason of the installation of a preliminary treatment facility or other
reason, he may request that the Director of Public Works undertake sampling
and analysis at his expense.
(3)
If tests made pursuant to Subsection (2) indicate less sewage
concentration than prior tests and, in the opinion of the Director of Public Works,
such tests represent the average sewage from the premises operating under
normal conditions, the surcharge thereafter shall be calculated on the basis of
such test until otherwise altered pursuant to this Bylaw.
BYLAW NO. 48 OF 2015

trap in the line to prevent the solution being sucked back into
the cylinder.
Solid: Cover spill with soda ash or sodium bicarbonate. Mix
and spray with water.
If effervescent wait until reaction is
complete. Scoop into a large beaker and cautiously add equal
volume of calcium hypochlorite (reaction may be vigorous).
Add more water, stir, and allow to stand for one hour. Dilute
and neutralize the oxidizing solution with 6M-HC1 or 6M-
NH40H as necessary and transfer to the drain with excess of
water.
Eliminate all sources of ignition. Cover with weak aqueous
solution of calcium hypochlorite (up to 15%) with stirring.
(Sodium hypochlorite available in 5% concentrations as
household bleach is also suitable.) Scoop into a large beaker.
After 12 hours, neutralize with 6M-HC1 or 6M-NH40H as
necessary. Wash to sewer with excess water. Wash site of
spill with strong soap solution to which some hypochlorite has
been added.
WARNING !
Use of dry hypochlorite may cause violent reaction or flash fire.

Storage Category
In this storage system inorganic compounds are classified into the following compatible
groups.
Class A1
This category contains inorganic acids, excluding all inorganic acids capable of behaving as
oxidizing agents (e.g., nitric acid (HNOs), perchloric acid (HCL04) and nitrous acid (HN02) ) as
well as cyanic acid. The common inorganic acids included in this section are: boric acid
(H3B03), carbonic acid (H2C03), phosphoric acid (H3P04), hydrochloric acid (HCL), hydrogen
sulfide (H2S), sulfuric acid (H2S04), hydrobromic acid (HBr), and hydroiodic acid (HI).
Notes:
1 .
Nitric and nitrous acid should be further separated from the above binary and oxy acids.
2.
Although a 70% perchloric acid/water mixture is not explosive by itself, the use of
perchloric acid often leads to the formation of solid perchlorates which are very
explosive. It is recommended this be removed from school laboratories.
3.
Due to its toxic and explosive risks cyanic acid should be removed from school
laboratories.
Class B1
Inorganic salts capable of acting as oxidizing agents. Included in this section are inorganic
nitrate/nitrite salts*, all inorganic oxidizers such as metal peroxides and potassium
*Further isolate ammonium nitrate/nitrite salts.
permanganate, concentrated halogen solution, chlorates, chlorites, perchlorates and
hypochlorites.
Class c,
Chemicals contained in this group are all air/or water sensitive chemicals including all alkali
and alkaline metals, hydrides, carbides, aluminum chloride, phosphorous chloride,
phosphorous pentoxide and elemental phosphorous.
It is recommended elemental
phosphorous be further separated from the alkali metals.
Class 01
This section contains (except cyanides) all remaining inorganic salts, reducing agents,
inorganic bases in both the solid and liquid state, elemental amalgam compounds and all non-
water/air sensitive elements.* It is suggested, depending on storage space, that the inorganic
bases be further separate from the remaining class 01 compounds.
The organic chemicals are also further subdivided according to the following classifications.
Class EO
This classification covers all organic bases in both the solid and liquid state including amines,
amides, alkoxides, aniline, carboxylate salts and/or solutions. It is further suggested, that with
available storage space solids be separated from liquids.
* If carbon disulfide is necessary it should be placed in this category but kept cool and well
sealed due to its low flashpoint (·30°C) and neurological toxin properties.
Class FQ
This category covers all organic solid compounds excluding organic acids, bases, oxidizers
and cyanides. Included in this classification are metal acetates solid polyhydroxy aldehydes
and ketones, solid esters, solid halogenated aliphatic, olefinic and aromatic compounds, solid
organometallics*, high molecular weight alkanes, alkenes and alkynes, and solid aliphatic,
olefinic and aromatic alcohols.
Class Go
Included in this category are all organic solvents and organic acids with the exception of
cyanides. This covers all liquid alkanes, alkenes and aromatic hydrocarbons, liquid aliphatic,
olefinic and aromatic alcohols, all liquid halogenated hydrocarbons and all organic acids liquid
or solid.
Class Ho
Included in this classification are all organic oxidizers. This section contains benzoyl peroxide
which can explode spontaneously when dry. It is recommended that benzoyl peroxide be
removed from the school laboratory if present.
Class I
This category includes all gas cylinders.
The following two classes contain cyanide/cyanate chemicals of organic and inorganic nature.
* It is recommended that any organometallic chemicals be removed from school laboratories
because of their inherent reactivity.
Class J
This classification includes all organic and inorganic cyanide containing chemicals.
Class K
Included in this category are organic and inorganic isocyanates.
