[Amended 8-8-1988]
A code governing the design, location, installation and inspection of
individual subsurface sewage disposal systems is hereby adopted by reference
pursuant to Chapter 188, Public Laws of 1950 (N.J.S.A. 26:3-69.1 to 26:3-69.6).
A copy of said code is annexed hereto and made a part hereof without inclusion
of the text thereof herein.
[Amended 8-14-1972; 8-8-1988]
The said code established and adopted by this chapter is described and
commonly known as "Standards for the Construction of Individual Subsurface
Sewage Disposal Systems," adopted by the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection as the Rules of the Division of Water Resources at N.J.A.C. 7:9-2.1
et seq., as the same may be amended from time to time.
[Amended 8-14-1972; 8-8-1988]
Three copies of said Standards for the Construction of Individual Subsurface
Sewage Disposal Systems have been placed on file in the Office of the Clerk
of the Board of Health of the Borough of Netcong upon the introduction of
this chapter and will remain on file for the use and examination of the public.
New individual disposal systems shall not be placed in operation, nor
shall new dwellings or buildings or additions thereto be sold or occupied
which must rely on such a system for sewage disposal, until the Board of Health
shall have issued a certificate indicating that said disposal system has been
located and constructed in compliance with the terms of the license issued
and the requirements of the aforesaid code. Issuance of such certificate shall
not be required for alterations to an existing individual sewage disposal
system.
In case any license or certification required by this chapter is denied
by the Board of Health, a hearing shall be held thereon before the Board within
15 days after request therefor is made by the applicants and upon such hearing
the Board of Health shall affirm, alter or rescind its previous determination
and take action accordingly within 15 days after the date of such hearing.
The Board of Health may order all further work in and about any individual
sewage disposal system which is being erected or installed in violation of
the code to be stopped forthwith, except such work as shall be necessary to
remedy such violation, and thereafter order the work to be continued without
any violation of any of the provisions of the code, and, after issuance of
any such order and the service of a copy thereof upon any person connected
with or working in and about the erection or installation of any such disposal
system or any part thereof, no further work shall be done thereon except as
aforesaid.
