No connections shall be made to a sanitary sewer which connections
are intended to discharge inflow. Such prohibited connections include,
but are not limited to, footing drains, roof leaders, roof drains,
cellar drains, sump pumps, catch basins, uncontaminated cooling water
discharges or other sources of inflow.
Connections which contribute inflow to the sanitary sewers must
be disconnected in a fashion approved by the Superintendent, prior
to the sale of the property.
Prior to such time as any property having service is sold or
ownership is transferred, the owner shall notify the Superintendent
of such pending sale or transfer. The Superintendent shall inspect
such property for the purpose of determining if any connections which
contribute inflow exist. Any such connections so identified shall
be removed and remediated to the satisfaction of the Superintendent
prior to such sale or transfer.
It shall be a willful violation of this Part 1 for any person
to reconnect any inflow source which has been disconnected pursuant
to this Part 1.
The Superintendent is enabled to take whatever action is necessary to determine the amount of inflow, including the requirement for installation of a control manhole. The property from which the inflow originated shall be billed for inflow according to Article
XII; however, the Town of Verona Town Board may cause a surcharge at a rate not to exceed five times that for normal sewage volume charge.
