A. 
No person shall uncover, make any connections with or openings into, use, alter or disturb any public sewer or building sewer thereof without first obtaining a written permit from the appropriate local governing body of the village.
B. 
There shall be two classes of building sewer permits: one for residential and commercial service, and one for service to establishments producing industrial waste. In the case of residential and commercial services, the owner or his agent shall make application on a special form furnished by the appropriate governing body. The permit application shall be supplemented by any plans, specifications or other information considered pertinent in the judgment of the local governing body. Permit, tap-in and inspection fees for residential and commercial services shall be established by the Village Board and shall be collected by the Village Clerk at the time the application is filed. In the case of establishments which produce industrial wastes, the owner or his agent shall make application on a special form furnished by the village. The permit application shall be supplemented by any plans, specifications or other information considered pertinent in the judgment of the engineer. The administrative body shall approve or disapprove the application prior to action by the local governing body. If the application is approved, the local governing body shall establish a permit, tap-in and inspection fee for each commercial, industrial or other nonresidential building as compared to the demands of a single residential structure. All engineering costs incurred by the local governing body for its separate engineering review shall be paid by the owner or his agent or builder or developer.
C. 
In the case of a significant industrial user and all other establishments producing industrial waste, the permit system above mentioned shall be administered as follows:
(1) 
The maximum period of discharge under a permit is three years. At the end of the three-year period, the permit holder must make application with the Village Clerk for renewal, extension and/or modification of the permit.
(2) 
The terms and conditions under which a permit is granted are subject to modification by the Village Board. No modification of the permit's terms and conditions may be made without written notification to the permit holder. The terms and conditions of any modification should be sent by certified mail by the Village Clerk to the permit holder at least 30 days prior to the meeting of the Village Board.
(3) 
A permit shall not be reassigned, transferred or sold to a new owner, new user, new or changed operation or to different premises.
(4) 
A holder of an industrial permit shall apply for a permit modification if the industrial production or process is changed so that the characteristics of the wastewater or flow are altered.
(5) 
The permit application shall require information concerning volume constituents and characteristics of the wastewater, flow rate, each product produced by type, amount and rate of production and a description of the activities, facilities and plant processes on the premises, including all materials processed and types of material which are or can be discharged.
(6) 
The conditions of a wastewater discharge permit shall be uniformly enforced and shall be expressly subject to all provisions of this chapter and all other regulations, user charges and fees established by the county and applicable state and federal regulations.
(7) 
The permits shall contain specifications for applicable monitoring programs which may include sampling locations, frequency of sampling, number, types and standards per test and reporting schedule.
A separate and independent building sewer shall be provided for every building; except that where one building stands at the rear of another on an interior lot and no private sewer is available or can be constructed to the rear building through an adjoining alley, court, yard or driveway, the building sewer from the front building may be extended to the rear building and the whole considered as one building sewer. Where building sewers are to serve multiple structures, there shall be provided at least one separate building sewer for each group of four living units.
Existing building sewers may be used in connection with new buildings only when they are found, on examination and test by the Superintendent, to meet all requirements of this chapter.
The building sewer shall be tar-coated, extra-heavy cast-iron soil pipe conforming to ASTM Specification A74 and American Standards Association (ASA) Specification A-40.0 and ABS pipe specifications ANSI-ASTM D-2751 (latest revision). All joints shall be solvent-welded, Type SC. All pipe couplings and fittings shall be tight and waterproof. Any part of the building sewer that is located within 10 feet of a water service pipe shall be constructed of cast-iron soil pipe with leaded joints. Cast-iron pipe with leaded joints shall be required where the building sewer is exposed to damage by tree roots. If installed in filled or unstable ground, the building sewer shall be of cast-iron soil pipe, except that nonmetallic material may be accepted if laid on a suitable concrete bed or cradle as approved by the local governing body. Building sewer pipe shall have a maximum length of five feet between joints.
The size and slope of the building sewer shall be subject to the approval of the local governing body, but in no events shall the diameter be less than four inches, nor shall the slope of the pipe be less than 1/8 inch per foot.
Whenever possible, the building sewer shall be brought to the building at an elevation below the basement floor. No building sewer shall be laid parallel to and within three feet of any bearing wall, which might thereby be weakened. The depth shall be sufficient to afford protection from frost but in no event shall be less than three feet. The building sewer shall be laid at uniform grade and in straight alignment insofar as possible. Changes in direction shall be made only with properly curved pipe and fittings. The ends of the building sewer which are not connected to the building drain of the structure for any reason shall be sealed against infiltration by a suitable stopper, plug or other approved means.
In all buildings in which any building drain is too low to permit gravity flow to the public sewer, sewage or industrial wastes carried by such drain shall be lifted by approved mechanical means and discharged to the building sewer.
All excavations required for the installation of a building sewer shall be open trench work unless otherwise approved by the local governing body. Pipelaying and backfill shall be performed in accordance with Sections 3 through 6 of ASTM Specification C12, except that no backfill shall be placed until the work has been inspected and except that the trench width measured at the top of the installed pipe shall not exceed 24 inches.
A. 
All joints and connections shall be made gastight and watertight. Cement joints may be permitted subject to approval of the engineer and/or Superintendent.
B. 
Cast-iron pipe joints shall be firmly packed with oakum or hemp and filled with molten lead not less than one inch deep. Lead shall be run in one pouring and caulked tight. No paint, varnish or other coating shall be permitted on the jointing material until after the joint has been tested and approved. The transition joint between cast-iron pipe and other pipe material shall be made with special adaptors and joint materials approved by the local governing body.
C. 
Premolded gasket joints for hub and plain cast-iron pipe may be used if approved by the local governing body and shall be neoprene compression-type gasket which provides a positive double seal in the assembled joint. The gasket shall be a premolded, one-piece unit, designed for joining the cast-iron hub and plain-end soil pipe and fittings. The assembled joint shall be sealed by compression of the gasket between the exterior surface of the spigot and the interior surface of the hub. The joint shall be assembled following the manufacturer's recommendation using acceptable lubricant and special pipe-coupling tools designed for that purpose. The plain spigot end shall be forced into the hub end of the pipe for the full depth of the hub itself. Lubricant shall be bland, flax-base, nontoxic material and shall not chemically attack the gasket material.
D. 
ABS pipe shall follow the manufacturer's recommendations, using properly designed couplings, pursuant to the published information relating thereto.
The connection of the building sewer into an existing public sewer shall be made at the property line. Except as provided under §§ 94-21 and 94-22, if the portion of the building sewer located in the street or right-of-way has not previously been provided, such will be constructed from the existing public sewer to the property line by the owner, builder or developer upon submittal of the property request and obtaining approval and consent of the governing body. All costs and expense incident to the installation and connection of the entire length of building sewer shall be borne by the owner. The owner shall indemnify the local governing body from any loss or damage that may directly or indirectly be occasioned by the installation of the building sewer. The method of connection of the building sewer to the public sewer (at the property line) will be dependent upon the type of pipe material used and in all cases shall be approved by the local governing body.
A. 
The applicant for the building sewer permit shall notify the local governing body when the building sewer is ready for inspection and connection to the public sewer. The connections shall be made under the supervision of the duly authorized representative of the local governing body.
B. 
When trenches are opened for the laying of building sewer pipes, such trenches shall be inspected before the trenches are filled, and the person performing such work shall notify the local governing body when the installation of the building sewer is completed. The filling of a trench before inspection is made will subject the person to whom the permit is issued to a penalty to be established by the Village Board.
All excavations for building sewer installations shall be adequately guarded with barricades and lights so as to protect the public from hazard. Streets, sidewalks, parkways and other public property disturbed in the course of the work shall be restored in a manner satisfactory to the village.
When any building sewer is to serve a school, hospital or similar institution or is to serve a complex of industrial or commercial buildings, or, in the opinion of the administrative body, will receive sewage or industrial wastes of such volume or character that frequent maintenance of said building sewer is anticipated, then such building sewer shall be connected to the public sewer through a manhole. The administrative body shall determine if and where this type of connection to the public sewer is required. Connections to existing manholes shall be made as directed by the Superintendent. If required, a new manhole shall be installed in the public sewer pursuant to § 94-23 and the building sewer connection made thereto as directed by the Superintendent.
