In accordance with the provisions of § 279-2D, no person shall make any connection with the sanitary sewerage system unless and until a permit for that purpose has been obtained from the Construction Official.
An application for a permit shall be made in writing, signed by the
applicant, to the Construction Official setting forth the date, the
name of the owner and the location of the premises, number of rooms
in respective buildings located on or about to be located on the premises
and the name of the plumber. In addition, the submission of appropriate
plans shall be approved by the Township Engineer who shall also be
authorized to approve/endorse/sign applicable sewer applications to
be submitted to the Rahway Valley Sewerage Authority and/or the New
Jersey Department of Environmental Protection on behalf of the Township
without additional action by the governing body.
Upon the filing of the application and payment of the connection
fee of $750 per each equivalent dwelling unit (EDU) for the premises
payable to "Township of Clark," the permit shall be issued, provided
that a certificate from the Plumbing Subcode Official accompany and
be filed with the application to connect the sanitary sewer system.
For the purpose of inspection, all trenches wherein any pipes shall
be laid shall be left open until after the construction improvement
(pipes, fittings, bedding) have been inspected and approved as hereinabove
provided.
The sewer connection fee shall be $750 per equivalent dwelling unit
(EDUC). The projected average daily flow for nonresidential uses shall
be taken from "Projected Flow Criteria," found in N.J.A.C. 7:14A-23.3,
and shall be divided by 300 to calculate the EDUs for that particular
use. Any fractional EDU result shall be rounded up to the next whole
number.
