The Department shall be diligent and exercise
all reasonable care to provide a continuous supply of potable water.
However, in the event of breakage, mechanical failure, power failure,
accident or shutting off for extension or repair or whenever, in the
judgment of the Department, an emergency exists, the Department may,
with or without notice, discontinue the supply for as long as it may
deem necessary to make repairs or correct the difficulty. The Borough
shall not be liable to any consumer for any damage or loss resulting
from such temporary cessation of service.
Before any tank or swimming pool having a capacity
in excess of 1,000 gallons is filled or refilled with water drawn
from the system, notice of filling or refilling such tank or swimming
pool shall first be furnished to the Department. The Department shall
consider the demands on the system and may, if necessary, limit the
time of day, the rate of flow and number of hours when such withdrawals
from the system will be permitted between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and
9:00 p.m. during the months of July, August and September. The Borough
shall not be liable to any consumer for any damage or loss resulting
from the denial or limitation of service hereunder.
