[Added 4-24-2013 by L.L. No. 4-2013]
A.Â
A separate permit is required for the installation or replacement
of any new or substantially improved on-site sanitary system or component
constructed.
B.Â
All permit applications for the installation or replacement of any
sanitary system or component shall include a site plan indicating:
(1)Â
The location of the system components on the property.
(2)Â
A written description of the component, including size and type
of structure.
(3)Â
Property lines and easements.
(4)Â
The location of all utilities, existing or proposed.
(5)Â
All clearances from foundations, property lines, dry wells,
utilities and other sanitary structures.
C.Â
All newly installed sanitary systems shall be constructed in accordance
with 10 NYCRR Appendix 75-A and the most current Nassau County Department
of Health standards.
All septic connections shall be made with SDR 35 gasketed sewer
pipe. Other rigid pipe of similar quality may be used only with prior
approval of the Building Inspector or Code Enforcement Official.
When replacing an existing sanitary system component, the component
being replaced must be installed in accordance with 10 NYCRR Appendix
75-A and the most current Nassau County Department of Health standards
to the extent practicable. If remaining structures on the property
are constructed of stacked cesspool block, all block structures must
be properly abandoned and replaced as above.
A.Â
All new or substantially improved structures shall include the installation
of a new sanitary system. Existing systems may be utilized for new
or substantially improved structures only if they conform to 10 NYCRR
Appendix 75-A and the most current Nassau County Department of Health
standards and were legally installed within the last 10 years.
B.Â
A "substantially improved structure" is defined to mean the enlargement,
replacement or alteration of any structure, the cost of which equals
or exceeds 50% of the market value of the preexisting structure prior
to the time of the improvements, as determined by the Building Inspector
of the Incorporated Village of East Hills.
Where on-site conditions of existing structures do not allow
for conformance to required clearances and/or setbacks, such clearances
and/or setbacks for new on-site systems may be modified only with
prior approval of the Building Inspector or Code Enforcement Official.
All new sanitary system installations constructed on or after
the effective date of the enactment of this article shall be inspected
and approved by the Building Inspector or Code Enforcement Official.
In instances where, in the opinion of the Code Enforcement Official,
spatial constraints, soil composition or other site conditions prevent
the installation from conforming to generally accepted practices,
the Code Enforcement Official may require alternate design and certification
by a duly licensed design professional.
