All costs and expenses incidental to the installation of the
building sewer and connection of the building sewer to the Wastewater
Management System shall be borne by the owner(s). By written instrument
approved by the Commission, the owner(s) shall indemnify and hold
the Town harmless from any loss or damage that may directly or indirectly
be occasioned by the installation of the building sewer.
Connection of an individual wastewater disposal system, whether
directly or indirectly, to the Wastewater Management System is prohibited.
The Commission may request that the connection be dye tested
by the Commission, or by the owner or the owner's designee in the
presence of a Commission inspector, to establish that the building
sewer is properly connected to the Town's Wastewater Management System.
The Commission may conduct dye testing of an existing building sewer
to establish that it is properly connected to the Town's Wastewater
Management System. The Commission may require the owner forthwith
to eliminate a connection from a building sewer to a storm drain (also
referred to as an illegal connection) at the owner's expense. The
Commission may also require the owner forthwith to eliminate a connection
from a building storm drain to a sanitary sewer at the owner's expense.
All existing or new building drains from plumbing fixtures liable
to backflow from the Wastewater Management System shall be required
to have backwater valves installed at the owner's expense. Any plumbing
fixture located at an elevation below the top of the manhole on the
Commission sewer serving the fixture shall be considered to be liable
to backflow. Backwater valves shall be installed in accordance with
the Uniform State Plumbing Code, 248 CMR 2.09(4) and the Commission's
Requirements for Site Plans.
Where a new building is to be constructed which is set back
from the property line, or where a building sewer is required to be
angled more than 45° the Commission shall require the owner to
install a cleanout on the portion of the building sewer on the owner's
property at the property line.
