Service lines and connections to lateral sewers
and connections to sewer system shall be constructed in accordance
with rules and regulations promulgated by the Authority.
No service line or connection to a lateral sewer
or connection to sewer system shall be covered until the same has
been inspected and approved by the Authority. If any part of a service
line or connection to a lateral sewer is covered before being so inspected
and approved, such service line or such connection shall be uncovered
for inspection, at the request of the Authority, at the cost and expense
of the owner of the improved property to be served through such service
line.
Every service line shall be maintained in a
sanitary and safe operating condition by the owner of the improved
property served. Whenever the Authority or this municipality has reason
to believe any service line has become defective, such service line
shall be subject to test and inspection. Defects found upon such inspection
shall be corrected as required by the Authority or this municipality
at the cost and expense of such owner.
