Where an improved property at the time connection
to a sewer is required shall be served by its own sewage disposal
system or device, the existing house sewer line shall be broken on
the structure side of such sewage disposal system or device and attachment
shall be made, with proper fittings, to continue such house sewer
line as a building sewer.
No building sewer shall be covered until it
has been inspected and approved by this Township and the Authority.
If any part of a building sewer is covered before so being inspected
and approved, it shall be uncovered for inspection at the cost and
expense of the owner of the improved property to be connected to a
sewer.
Every building sewer of any improved property
shall be maintained in a sanitary and safe operating condition by
the owner of such improved property.
Every excavation for a building sewer shall
be guarded adequately with barricades and lights to protect all persons
from damage and injury. Streets, sidewalks and other public property
disturbed in the course of installation of a building sewer shall
be restored, at the cost and expense of the owner of the improved
property being connected, in a manner satisfactory to this Township.[1]
If any person shall fail or refuse, upon receipt
of a notice from this Township or the Authority, in writing, to remedy
any unsatisfactory condition with respect to a building sewer within
60 days of receipt of such notice, this Township or the Authority
may refuse to permit such person to discharge sewage and industrial
wastes into the sewer system until such unsatisfactory condition shall
have been remedied to the satisfaction of this Township and the Authority.
This Township reserves the right to adopt, from time to time, additional rules and regulations as it shall deem necessary and proper relating to connections with a sewer and the sewer system, which additional rules and regulations, to the extent appropriate, shall be and shall be construed as part of this Part 1 of this chapter.
