The sewage disposal benefit areas of the Village of Naples or
sewer districts of the Town of Naples, New York, as constructed or
as hereafter added to or changed, shall be under the charge and control
of the Village of Naples Public Works Department and the Chief Operator
of the public sewer system under the supervision of the Village Board
of Trustees and the Commissioner of Public Works, under whose supervision
the sewer systems shall be used by property owners. No person shall
enter into, open or interfere with or use or do any repair or maintenance
work with respect to said sewer systems except under the inspection
and direction of the Chief Operator and after a written permit shall
have been issued by the Chief Operator in which such entering, opening,
use, repair or maintenance is to take place. The Village Board of
Trustees shall adopt rules and regulations to govern the maintenance
and use of the sewer system and shall therein fix the amount of fees
that shall be chargeable to persons or property owners who may wish
to enter or use the sewer system, which fee shall be sufficient in
amount to pay for the cost of inspection of such entry or entries.
There shall be two classes of building sewer permits: one for
domestic waste service and another for service to commercial and industrial
waste generators. The owner or his agent shall make application on
a form furnished by the Chief Operator. The permit application shall
be supplemented by any plans, specifications or other information
considered pertinent in the judgment of the Chief Operator. A permit
fee in an amount fixed from time to time by resolution of the Village
Board of Trustees shall be paid at the time the application is filed.
Permits granted under this Part 2 shall be for a specific waste
or wastes, and such permits shall be granted only after the submission
and approval of plans as set forth hereinafter. Subsequent wastes
of different quantity, quality or characteristics shall be covered
by separate permits.
All costs and expenses incident to the installation and connection
of the building sewer or lateral to the right-of-way line shall be
borne by the property owner. The property owner shall indemnify the
Village of Naples from any loss or damage that may directly or indirectly
be occasioned by the installation of the building sewer.
Every existing building which is the source of the heretofore
described acceptable waste shall be equipped with a separate and independent
building sewer connection.
The size, slope, alignment and materials of construction of
a building sewer and the methods to be used in excavating, placing
of the pipe, jointing, testing and backfilling the trench shall all
conform to the requirements of federal, state and local codes, rules,
laws and regulations.
Whenever possible, the building sewer shall be brought to the
building at an elevation below the basement floor. In all buildings
in which any building drain is too low to permit gravity flow to the
public sewer, sanitary sewage carried by such building drain shall
be lifted by a means approved by the Chief Operator and shall be installed
and maintained at the expense of the property owner and discharged
to the building sewer.
No person shall make connection of roof downspouts, exterior
foundation drains, areaway drains, sump pumps or other sources of
surface runoff or groundwater to a building sewer or building drain
which in turn is connected directly or indirectly to a public sanitary
sewer.
The connection of the building sewer to the public sewer shall
conform to the requirements of all applicable federal, state and local
laws, rules and regulations. All such connections shall be made gastight
and watertight. Any deviation from the prescribed procedures and materials
must be approved by the Chief Operator.
The applicant for the building sewer permit shall notify the
Chief Operator when the building sewer is ready for inspection and
connection to the public sewer. The connection shall be made under
the supervision of the Chief Operator or his/her representative.
All excavations for a building sewer installation shall be adequately
guarded with barricades and lights so as to protect the public from
hazard. Streets, sidewalks, parkways and other public property disturbed
in the course of the work shall be restored in a manner satisfactory
to the Village of Naples Board of Trustees.
