Services installed in conjunction with new main
extensions shall be paid for in full by the customer, during the life
of the main extension contract. When an applicant applies for service
except in conjunction with new main extensions, the Department or
its agent will furnish, install, own and maintain such new service
connections.
Unless the water piping is owned by the Department
with suitable easement rights by previous negotiation, maintenance
of water piping installed within a private development and supplied
from one service connection to the Department's main shall be the
responsibility of the private development. Repairs may be made and
billed for by the Department by prearrangement with the owners.
Whenever application is made for a service connection
to supply a single property not abutting upon a distribution main,
the owner of the property shall pay a connection charge computed on
the same basis as connection charges to Class I distribution mains.
If the property to be served is adjacent to
the end of a main, the Tolland Water Department, after receiving payment
for the frontage charges, may either extend the public main as a Class
I main or tap the existing main and extend a one-inch service to the
point where the service is desired, provided that the distance does
not exceed 35 feet. If the distance is more than 35 feet, the owner
shall pay for the additional pipe at actual cost, plus 20%, payable
in advance. The total length of such one-inch pipe shall not exceed
100 feet.
