An adequate supply of potable water, complying with the Potable Water
Standards established by the State Department of Health of the State of New
Jersey, shall be provided in each mobile home park. The water shall be obtained
from an approved public potable water supply, if available at the boundary
of the mobile home park. If an approved public potable water supply is not
so available, a water supply shall be developed in accordance with Standards
for the Construction of Water Supply Systems for Realty Improvements promulgated
by the State Commissioner of Health. The water supply shall be approved by
the State and local Department of Health prior to its use.
A water distribution system shall be provided to transmit the potable
water supply throughout the mobile home park. The supply shall be made available
to each mobile home lot, building or other facility requiring water via a
separate water service pipe, at a minimum pressure of 20 pounds per square
inch.
No physical connection shall be made between an approved public potable
water supply and an unapproved water supply unless it satisfies the provisions
N.J.S.A. 58:11-9.1 et seq. A semipublic water supply is considered as an unapproved
water supply for the purpose of this regulation even though it may meet the
Potable Water Standards established by the State Department of Health of the
State of New Jersey.
Drinking fountains, if provided, shall be constructed of impervious
material and have an angle jet with the nozzle above the overflow rim of the
bowl. The nozzle shall be protected by a nonoxidizing guard. The bowl shall
be of easily cleanable design, without corners, and the bowl opening shall
be equipped with a strainer.
If the water furnished consumers in a mobile home park is not obtained
from a public water supply system, it shall be sampled quarterly each year
and submitted for bacteriological analyses in accordance with the provisions
of the Potable Water Standards established by the State Department of Health.
All results of samples taken under this regulation shall be assembled, recorded
and maintained by the park management for inspection by the New Jersey State
Department of Health and the local Board of Health.
