Account Subclassification Code System

Henrico County serves over 80,000 customers with water and sewer. The account subclassification code system is designed to manage industrial and commercial customers based upon two-letter codes that represent the nature of their discharge. Many of the codes used in the County's system have their foundation in the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) list of CATEGORICAL industries. These are industries that have discharges unique to that category of industry. For example, all industries in the Metal Finishing category will have limitations placed on their discharge for several of the heavy metals, such as copper, nickel, and zinc and total toxic organic compounds. Industries in the Aluminum Forming category on the other hand have limitations placed on them for aluminum, cyanide, zinc and chromium.

A simple two-letter subclassification system allows us to manage data for the non-categorical industries and businesses as well. Restaurant discharges, as an example, are not yet governed by the federal government, but are regulated by County Code for oil and grease. The two-letter system is a simple way to allow users of the billing system to sort data.
