It shall be unlawful for any person to place, deposit, or permit
to be deposited, in any unsanitary manner, on public or private property,
within the Village or in any area under the jurisdiction of said municipality,
any human or animal excrement, garbage, or objectionable waste. Also,
no person shall discharge domestic sewage onto the surface of the
ground or discharge it in a way that permits it to come to the surface
of the ground.
No person shall connect a private sewage system so that sewage
flows into a storm sewer or into a drain intended exclusively for
stormwater.
No person shall discharge sewage into a well.
It shall be unlawful to discharge to any natural outlet within
the Village or in any area under the jurisdiction of said municipality
any wastewater or other polluted waters, except where suitable treatment
has been provided in accordance with subsequent provisions of this
chapter.
No property owner, builder, or developer shall be issued a building
permit for a new dwelling or structure requiring sanitary facilities
unless a suitable and approved method of wastewater disposal, conforming
to this chapter, is available. All housing construction or building
development which takes place after this chapter is enacted shall
provide for an approved system of sanitary sewers.
Except as hereinafter provided, it shall be unlawful to construct
or maintain any privy, privy vault, cesspool, septic tank, or other
facility intended or used for disposal of wastewater.
The owner(s) of all houses, buildings, or properties used for
human occupancy, employment, recreation, or other purposes situated
within the Village and abutting on any street, alley, or right-of-way
in which there is now located or may in the future be located a public
sewer is hereby required, at the owner's expense, to install
suitable sanitary facilities therein and to connect such facilities
directly to the proper public sewer, in accordance with the provisions
of this chapter, within 90 days after official notice to do so, or
prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy, provided that said
public sewer is within 100 feet (30.5 meters) of the property line.
The use of the Village public sewers shall be strictly limited
and restricted, except as provided in Section 307 of the Act, to receive
and accept the discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial
wastes, generated on or discharged from real property within the bounds
of the service area of the POTW.
At the recommendation of the Superintendent, who determines
that one or more segments of the POTW are exceeding their hydraulic
capacity at any time or any specific purpose of this chapter is being
violated, the Village Board shall have the authority to limit or deny
new connections to the POTW until the conditions leading to the moratorium
are corrected. Such correction may be by:
A. Construction of new facilities.
B. Enlarging existing facilities.
C. Correction of inflow and infiltration.
D. Cleaning and repairing of existing facilities.
All requirements, directives, and orders calling for mandatory
use of the sewers, within the service area of the POTW, for the proper
discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial wastes,
shall be established and given by the Village Board, NYSDEC, USEPA
and/or other such state or federal agencies which have enforcement
powers.
