When an applicant, property owner, builder, or developer proposes to construct sanitary sewers or extensions to sanitary sewers in an area proposed for subdivision, the plans, specifications, and method of installation shall be subject to the approval of the Superintendent, Village Engineer, the Oswego County Department of Health, and the NYSDEC in accordance with §
108-28. Said property owner, builder, or developer shall pay for the entire installation, including a proportionate share of the intercepting or trunk sewers, pumping stations, force mains, and all other Village of Pulaski expenses incidental thereto. Plans shall be subject to review and approval of the Village Engineer. Where extension is proposed by someone other than the Village Board acting on behalf of the Village, all costs associated with the extension, including the cost of such review and inspection, shall be borne by the person proposing the extension. Funds to cover review and inspection expenses shall be deposited in escrow prior to review or inspection work being performed. Construction of sewer system extensions shall be inspected by the Village Engineer, or , at the discretion of the Village Board, the Superintendent. No work shall proceed or advance unless said inspector is present. No new sanitary sewers will be accepted by the Village of Pulaski Board until such construction inspections have been made so as to assure the Village of Pulaski Board of compliance with this chapter and any amendments or additions thereto. The Superintendent and the Village Engineer have the authority to require such excavation as necessary to inspect any installed facilities if the facilities were covered or otherwise backfilled before they were inspected so as to permit inspection of the construction. The Superintendent or Village Engineer shall report all findings of inspections and tests to the Village of Pulaski Board. Each street lateral shall be installed and inspected pursuant to Article
VI, and inspection fees shall be paid by the applicant prior to initiating construction.
Plans, specifications, and methods of installation shall conform to the requirements of this article, including the details attached thereto. Components and materials of wastewater facilities not covered in this chapter, such as pumping stations, lift stations, or force mains shall be designed in accordance with §
108-28, and shall be clearly shown and detailed on the plans and specifications submitted for approval. When requested, the applicant shall submit, to the Superintendent, Village Engineer, NYSDEC and to the Oswego County Department of Health, all design calculations and other pertinent data to supplement review of the plans and specifications. Results of manufacturer's tests on each lot of pipe delivered to the job site shall also be furnished, upon request.
The following shall be submitted to the Superintendent
and the Village Engineer for review, and shall require their approval
prior to incorporation into the work or acceptance of facilities as
applicable:
A. Design plans and specifications for sewer extensions,
pump stations, force mains and other appurtenant facilities proposed
for construction by any person in accordance with this chapter.
B. Manufacturer's catalogs and cut sheets, specifications,
performance data, shop drawings and other such data as the Superintendent
or Village Engineer shall request to clearly identify characteristics
of materials and equipment proposed to be incorporated into the work.
C. Contractor's proposed work schedules showing anticipated
commencement and completion and all salient portions of the work.
D. All test results, test reports, and certifications
as required by this chapter.
E. Record drawings as required by this chapter.
F. Bonds and insurance certificates as required by this
chapter.
All work and work schedules shall be coordinated
with the Superintendent. The Superintendent will use best efforts
to make himself available for inspections and other matters requiring
Superintendent's inspection, approval and/or attention as required
by this chapter. However, the Superintendent shall not be obliged
to conform to schedules proposed by the applicant.
Sanitary sewers and extensions to sanitary sewers
constructed within the Village of Pulaski, or within Village or public
rights-of-way at the applicant's expense, after final approval and
acceptance by the Superintendent, and concurrence by the Village of
Pulaski Board, shall become the property of the Village of Pulaski,
and shall thereafter be operated and maintained by the Village of
Pulaski. Record drawings shall be prepared for all sewer system extensions
by the design engineer which reflect any substantive modifications
to the original plans and specifications made during construction.
One set of reproducible mylar drawings, alone, with one set of paper
prints and one set of record specifications shall be submitted to
the Superintendent within 30 days of completing the work. Said sewers,
after their acceptance by the Village of Pulaski, shall be guaranteed
against defects in materials or workmanship for one year, by the applicant.
The guarantee shall be in such form and contain such provision as
deemed necessary by the Village of Pulaski Board, secured by a surety
bond or such other security as the Village of Pulaski Board may approve.
Any sewer extensions within the Village constructed
on or adjacent to private property, which property must be entered
upon for the purposes of maintaining and/or reconstructing said sewer
extension, will require easements. Any such easements shall be written
in a manner and form acceptable to the Village and such that the Village
has the right of access for maintenance and reconstruction of the
sewers. Easements shall extend along the length of the sewer with
a minimum width of 30 feet (15 feet on each side of the center line
of the sewer). All costs associated with obtaining any such easements
shall be borne by the person making the extension. Such easements
shall be transferred to the Village upon its acceptance of the completed
facilities, be permanent, and all costs associated with such easements
shall be the responsibility of the applicant.
All surface features and landscaping shall be fully restored to at least as good a condition as existed prior to construction and to the satisfaction of the Superintendent by the person making any sewer extension. Restoration shall be warranted for a period of one year against defects in materials and workmanship, and shall be covered by the bond required in §
108-44.
