the issuance of licenses to practice plumbing, is hereby established pursuant
to N.J.S.A. 26:3-69.1 et seq. A copy of the code is annexed to this chapter
and made a part of it without the inclusion of the text.
The code established and adopted by this chapter is described and commonly
known as the "Plumbing Code of New Jersey (Revised 1964)."
Three copies of the Plumbing Code of New Jersey (Revised 1964) have
been placed on file in the offices of the Secretary of the Board of Health
and the Township Clerk for the use and examination of the public.
In connection with the provisions of this chapter and the code hereby
established and adopted as a part hereof, the following fees shall be charged
and received:
A. For the examination of any applicant for license as master
plumber: $50.
B. For the issuance or annual renewal of a license of master
plumber: $25.
C. Filing plans for proposed plumbing work: $2.
D. For the issuance of permit for a proposed plumbing construction
or alteration: $10, provided that an additional fee of $1 per fixture is hereby
established for each fixture proposed in the approved plan for construction
or alteration.
E. For the issuance of a permit for the replacement of a
plumbing fixture: $5.
F. For each reinspection of plumbing work caused by the
failure of the licensee to comply with the provisions of the code or permit
issued: $5.
A person who has been issued a master plumber's license or to whom a
permit may be issued under § 14-1.3 of the Plumbing Code of New
Jersey shall execute and deposit with the administrative authority a bond
which shall be in the amount of $3,000. Each such bond shall be conditioned
upon compliance with the provisions of this code and the person so bonded
being obliged to pay all fines and penalties as may be imposed upon him pursuant
to law for violation of the provisions of this code. A master plumber's license
or permits issued under § 14-1.3 shall not be valid unless such
a bond has been executed and deposited as herein provided.
