After approval of a section or sections of the
main sewer and house sewer laterals, the Sewer Engineer or Township
Engineer shall file a complete set of house connection maps.
Before any portion of the house drain outside
of the house is connected to the house connection, the owner shall
prove to the satisfaction of the Plumbing Inspector that it is clean
and conforms in every respect to the regulations or ordinances of
the Division of Health, and before any portion of the house connection
is connected to the house sewer lateral, the Plumbing Inspector shall
be satisfied that the house connection is in good order and conforms
in every respect to the requirements for construction thereof.
Where connection is made between the house connection
outside of the building and the house sewer lateral, a long radius
bend shall be appropriately installed at this connection along with
a cleanout as required by the Plumbing Code. This connection shall be subject to the approval of the
Plumbing Inspector, who shall be given ample notice prior to such
work.
The Plumbing Inspector may apply any appropriate
test to the pipes, and the plumber and contractor, at their own expense,
shall furnish all necessary tools, labor, materials and assistants
for such tests and shall remove or repair any defective materials
when so ordered by the Inspector.
Each contractor or other person performing work
on private property for the purpose of connection from the house sewer
lateral to the house drain onto private property shall be governed
by the terms of the regulations or ordinances of the Division of Health.
