The following policy is established for engineering services to be provided
by the owner or developer of any residential, institutional, commercial or
industrial use to ensure proper construction performance and to ensure satisfactory
wastewater collection, conveyance, treatment and disposal service to all of
the Sanitary District connections and users. This policy complements other
specific references to this subject.
All sewer construction for any residential, institutional, commercial
or industrial use, whether new or modified, shall be at the expense of the
owner or developer, and such expense shall include the preparation of applications,
plans and specifications (to be approved by the Sanitary District prior to
construction), surveying, the securing of all permits and easements, the inspection
and testing of the work during construction, and the submission of final as-built
drawings at completion of the project. All of this work shall be done under
the supervision and certification of a professional engineer registered in
the Commonwealth of Virginia who, at the completion of the project, shall
submit a statement to the owner or developer and the Administrator indicating
that the work was constructed in accordance with the plans and specifications
and is complete and ready for acceptance by the Sanitary District.
A.
The Sanitary District shall require review, evaluation
and comment by its consulting engineer on any application, including plans
and specifications for new or modified service meeting or exceeding 2,000
gallons per day and on any other application for service regardless of projected
wastewater flow generation if deemed in the best interest of the Sanitary
District and its users.
B.
If the application for service is preliminarily determined to be approvable, the owner/developer shall reimburse the Sanitary District an amount equal to the fees incurred by the Sanitary District's consulting engineer per Subsection A prior to the final approval of the application by the Board or Administrator.
