Subject to the provisions of this Part 2 with respect to cross-connections, existing water wells on premises connected to the System may be used for lawn watering, irrigation, automobile or equipment washing, as a source of water for a building's heating or cooling system or for similar purposes not involving human consumption or prolonged bodily contact with such nonpotable water. Any fixtures connected to such non-public water systems shall only be located outside of structures intended for human occupancy, employment, recreation or similar purposes. Notwithstanding Article XIII, piping connected to a private water well shall be physically and completely separated from all plumbing used for public water.
Plainfield may regulate, limit or prohibit the use of water
for any purpose. Such regulations shall restrict less essential water
uses to the extent deemed necessary to assure an adequate supply for
essential domestic and commercial needs and for firefighting. No such
regulation, limitation or prohibition shall be effective until 24
hours after the publication thereof in a newspaper of general circulation
in the Township, except in an emergency as may be determined by Plainfield.
In case of an emergency the regulation, limitation or prohibition
shall take effect as indicated by Plainfield and notice shall be given
on a local radio and/or television station. Any person violating such
rule or regulation shall, upon conviction thereof, be punished as
prescribed in this Part 2.
