Each job-sharer works 40 hours per two-week period.

In addition to the Industrial Discharge/Pretreatment and Pollution Prevention programs, the Industrial Discharge Section also manages the Regional Private Sewer Lateral (PSL) Program. This position will have a focus within the PSL Program. The PSL Program requires property owners to comply with certifying their privately-owned sewer pipes as leak-free and ultimately reducing Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) to the wastewater treatment plant.

This position requires excellent customer service skills, mastery of communication both orally and through writing, and project management expertise to coordinate project components between inspectors, administrative clerks, and the Supervisor.

Primary duties for the PSL position include:
Issuing enforcement for non-compliance with PSL Program requirements

Drafting and recommending Compliance Agreements for approval
Managing the receipt and refunding of Time Extension Certificate (TEC) deposits
