A code regulating the location, construction, use, maintenance
and method of emptying or cleaning individual sewage disposal systems;
the issuance of permits to locate, construct, empty or clean said
systems; and fixing penalties for the violation thereof is hereby
adopted pursuant to P.L. 1950, c. 188, (N.J.S.A. 26:3-69.1 to 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 Sewage Disposal System Code
of New Jersey (1963)."
Three copies of said Individual Sewage Disposal System Code
of New Jersey (1963) have been placed on file in the office of the
Secretary of the Board of Health upon the introduction of this chapter
and will remain on file in said office for use and examination by
the public.
In case any permit or certification 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 individual sewage disposal system 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, and 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 disposal system, or any part
thereof, no further work shall be done thereon except as aforesaid.
Any person or persons, firm or corporation violating any of
the provisions of or any order promulgated under this chapter or the
Individual Sewage Disposal System Code of New Jersey (1963) 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.
