The spilling, dumping or disposal of materials other than stormwater to the municipal separate storm sewer system in the Township of Little Egg Harbor is prohibited. The spilling, dumping, or disposal of materials other than stormwater in such a manner as to cause the discharge of pollutants to the municipal separate storm sewer system is also prohibited.
