At a council meeting, staff presented the second reading of Ordinance 2025-O-08, a Sewer Use Ordinance revised to reflect EPA and DEP pretreatment requirements and to incorporate administrative edits; no formal vote is recorded in the transcript.
The Huntington City Council heard the second reading of Ordinance 2025-O-08, the Sewer Use Ordinance, during its meeting. Mister Bracey, a city staff member, told the council the ordinance was revised to reflect federal and state pretreatment requirements.
"This is a requirement by the EPA and DEP for a pretreatment," Mister Bracey said, adding that the ordinance also received administrative edits for clarity. He said there were no other substantive changes in the version presented.
The revisions are intended to update local code to match regulatory changes from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the state Department of Environmental Protection that affect pretreatment program requirements. Bracey described the edits as largely administrative and related to rates and clarity.
The transcript does not record a motion or a vote on the ordinance. The item was presented for second reading and staff answered questions; no final action is shown in the meeting record.
