A.
It is one explicit purpose of these rules and regulations to deter,
prevent and eliminate, as far as possible, the introduction of stormwaters
into the County sewerage system and all sewers tributary thereto.
However, it is recognized that in certain areas the immediate enforcement
of these rules and regulations against existing connections would
not be feasible or reasonable.
B.
This statement shall not be construed to mitigate in any way the
enforcement of these rules and regulations against the construction
of any new combined sewers or against any new connections discharging
stormwaters to the County sewerage system or sewers tributary thereto
or to the alleviation of unreasonable flows of stormwater; nor shall
this statement of policy be used as a reason for not making any changes
which may be ordered by governmental regulatory agencies.
No downspout, leader, gutter or pipe, drain or channel which
may at any time carry stormwater, surface water or groundwater of
any kind, nor any drain from any catch basin, lake, swamp, pond or
swimming pool, nor any inlet for surface water, stormwater or groundwater
of any kind shall be connected to the County sewerage system or any
sewer tributary thereto. However, existing facilities mentioned previously
which are presently connected directly or indirectly to combined sewers
may remain until such combined sewers are separated, at which time
they shall be disconnected.
