Editor's Note: This local law also provided that it shall be effective 6-1-83.
Where a public sanitary or combined sewer is not available under the provisions of Article II, § 139-5, the building sewer shall be connected to a private wastewater disposal system complying with the provisions of this chapter.
Before commencement of construction of a private wastewater disposal system, the owner(s) shall first obtain approval and a written permit from the Suffolk County Health Department and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The owner(s) shall comply in all respects with the requirements of the Suffolk County Health Department and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
A permit for a private wastewater disposal system shall not become effective until the installation is completed to the satisfaction of the regulatory agencies. The agencies shall be allowed to inspect the work at any stage of construction, and in any event, the applicant for the permit shall notify the regulatory agencies when the work is ready for final inspection and before any underground portions are covered.
At such time as a public sewer becomes available to a property served by a private wastewater disposal system, as provided in Article II, § 139-5, a direct connection shall be made to the public sewer within 60 days in compliance with this chapter, and any septic tanks, cesspools and similar private wastewater disposal facilities shall be cleaned of sludge and filled with suitable material.
The owner(s) shall operate and maintain the private wastewater disposal facilities in a sanitary manner at all times, at no expense to the village.
Nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed to interfere with any additional requirements that may be imposed by the Health Officer.
