Except as herein provided in this article, the sewer use shall be the
total water use.
In the event that a user claims a significant portion of its metered water does not return to the sanitary sewer, such user shall file a written statement to that effect with the Sewer Administrator. Upon receipt of such statement, the Sewer Administrator may, by written agreement with such user, subject to review and approval by the Village Superintendent, equitably adjust the rent provided for in §
311-44 of this article to take into account the amount of such metered water not returning to the sanitary sewer, to the extent that such amount is not typical of other users similarly situated. In the alternative, the Sewer Administrator may require the installation, at the user's expense, of a separate meter or meters to measure the metered water returning to the sanitary sewer. In the event that such a meter is installed, the sewer rent provided for in §
311-44 shall be reduced by the amount of water not discharged into the sewer, to the extent that, in the judgment of the Sewer Administrator, such amount is not typical of other users similarly situated.
In the event that a user uses metered Town water and water other than
metered Town water or uses water other than metered Town water exclusively,
the Sewer Administrator shall estimate the wastewater entering the sanitary
sewer by comparison, to the extent practicable, with similarly metered users
of the system, subject to review and approval of the Village Superintendent.
All expenses in connection with metering shall be charged to the user.
