All connections, including work within the public and/or Town's
right-of-way, shall be inspected by the Town under the direct supervision
of the Town Engineer or his representative.
Except as otherwise provided herein, the Town may approve a
permit to a user outside the Town limits.
Upon receipt of a proper application and after a permit has
been issued for a connection by the Town, all work performed and all
materials required shall be at the expense of the user. All work and
materials installed shall be subject to inspection by the Town Engineer
or authorized representative, and no such work shall be laid or covered
until after such representative shall have approved all work and materials
and a satisfactory test has been completed.
The Town shall have the right to install and maintain, at the
Town's expense, any auxiliary recorders, transmitters and/or
other equipment within and/or around the meter pits which the Town
shall deem to be in the best interests of the Town and to the operation
of its system.
It is not the purpose of the Town to treat sewage for individual
consumers, and the Town has the right to reject any and all such applications
for such treatment. The Town does recognize, however, that in some
cases no other source of treatment is available and, in the interest
of public health, will review any such application in writing on the
form provided by the Town for such service of a temporary nature.
As a condition for such service, the user shall agree to connect with
a municipal sewer system as soon as available.
The Town shall have the right to accept and/or reject any and
all applications for service of a nature not hereinbefore covered
by these rules and regulations, including the right to determine the
rates for such service, and shall approve only those permits which
will not be detrimental to the best interests of the Town.
No person, except the Town Engineer or his authorized representative,
shall terminate or restrict service at any connection to or from the
Town sanitary sewerage system.
The Town has the right, upon reasonable notice to the property
owner and upon the property owner's failure to make necessary
repairs, to terminate service from or in any Town main or to any service
connection to said mains at any time, without notice, that it is deemed
necessary because said service is detrimental to the Town's sanitary
sewerage system. The Town shall not be responsible for any damage
that may result therefrom.
The Town shall use reasonable care and diligence to provide
a constant treatment of sewage for all users, but shall have the right
at any time, without notice, to terminate services in its mains or
in any service connection for the purpose of making repairs and/or
extensions or for any other purpose, and it shall be expressly agreed
that the Town and its officers, agents and employees shall not be
liable for any deficiency or failure of any kind for any cause whatsoever.
The Town shall have the following rights, in addition to all
other such reservations set forth within these rules and regulations
for ICR and user charges:
A.
To make such changes in the rules and regulations as it may deem
to be in the best interests of the Town.
B.
To make such changes in the rates for sewage treatment as may in
its judgment seem to be for the best interests of the Town.
C.
To order existing service connections and/or fixtures to be replaced
with the acceptable materials as determined by the Town Engineer and
to refuse service with all penalties hereinbefore set forth for failure
of a consumer to comply with such order.
D.
To have free access to enter the premises of any consumer, at any
reasonable time, for the purpose of inspection, reading, repair and/or
replacement of meters or other fixtures.
E.
To enter into contracts with other corporations for sewage treatment,
either into or out of the Town, to or from such corporations and under
such terms and conditions as shall properly protect the best interests
of the Town.
F.
To reject any or all applications for service which do not provide
for full compliance of these rules and regulations.
