A code regulating the location, construction,
alteration, use and supervision of individual and semipublic water
supplies, requiring certain permits, providing for the inspection
of such supplies and the fixing of fees and prescribing penalties
for violations is hereby adopted pursuant to Chapter 188, P.L. 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.
The code established and adopted by this chapter
is described and commonly known as the "Individual and Semipublic

Three copies of the said Individual and Semipublic
Water Supply Code of New Jersey (1966) have been placed on file in
the office of the Secretary, Clerk or other similar officer of this
Board of Health upon the introduction of this chapter and will remain
on file in said office for the use and examination of the public.
In case any permit 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 applicant 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 water supply, 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, the
work continued without any violation of any of the provisions of the
code. 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 water supply, or any part thereof, no
further work shall be done thereon except as aforesaid.
The following fees and charges are herewith
established:
A. For the filing of an application and plans for a permit
to locate and construct a water supply: $25.
B. For the filing of an application and plans for a permit
to alter an existing water supply: $10.
C. For each reinspection of a water supply, or part thereof,
caused by the failure of the permittee to locate and construct or
alter the same in accordance with the terms of the permit issued or
the terms of the aforesaid code: an inspection fee of $5.
Any person or persons, firm or corporation violating
any of the provisions of or any order promulgated under this chapter
or the Individual and Semipublic Water Supply Code of New Jersey (1966)
made a part hereof shall, upon conviction thereof, pay a penalty of
not less than $5 nor more than $500 for each violation. Each day a
particular violation continues shall constitute a separate offense.
