Adequate facilities for the collection and disposal of sanitary sewage
shall be provided at every mobile home park.
A.
Each mobile home lot shall be provided with a building
sewer. The building sewer shall be at least four inches in diameter and shall
be equipped with a riser of the same diameter terminating sufficiently above
ground at not less than a forty-five-degree angle, to permit adequate connection
from the mobile home. A trap and/or vent shall not be installed on the building
sewer.
B.
The riser shall be firmly imbedded in the ground and
be protected against heaving, shifting and surface water. When it is not in
use, the riser shall be capped or plugged so as to render it watertight.
C.
The sewer connection shall be provided with suitable
fittings to effect watertight junctions. The connections shall be self-draining
and shall be effected by durable, noncollapsible, corrosion- and weather-resistant,
semirigid or rigid pipe. Such pipe shall be plastic, copper or iron of suitable
diameter (at least three inches) to fit the drain outlet of the mobile home
and the riser.
D.
The park management shall maintain several spare connectors
and appropriate fittings, in good repair, to be used when privately owned
connectors do not meet the requirements of this regulation.
Sewer lines and appurtenances in a mobile home park shall be laid in
accordance with the following requirements:
A.
Minimum size: six inches (except building sewer).

Construction. All sewer line joints, sewer connections
and manholes shall be watertight.
D.
Manholes shall be provided at the upper end of each sewer
line, at intersections, at changes in grade, size or alignment and at intervals
of not more than 400 feet.
E.
Protection of water supplies.
(1)
Water mains and sewers generally shall be separated by
a horizontal distance of 10 feet. If such lateral separation is not possible,
the water and sewer pipes shall be in separate trenches, with the sewer at
least 18 inches below the bottom of the water main or with such other separation
as is approved by the Department. At crossings of sewers and water mains,
the sewer shall, in general, be at least 18 inches below the bottom of the
water main.
(2)
Where the requirements of Subsection E(1) cannot be met, the sewer shall be constructed of cast-iron pipe with mechanical or slip-on joints, or hot-poured lead joints, for a distance of at least 10 feet on either side of the crossing, or other suitable protection, as approved by the Department, shall be provided.
(3)
Any sewer which is within 100 feet of a well shall be
of steel, reinforced concrete, cast iron or other suitable material; shall
be properly protected, of completely watertight construction and shall be
tested for watertightness after installation.
A.
The plans for the proposed sewerage facilities of a mobile
home park, including sewers and appurtenances and sewage treatment and disposal
facilities, shall be approved by the State and local Department of Health
prior to installation of said facilities.
B.
Where sewage disposal is to be effected by subsurface
means, the facilities shall be designed and constructed in accordance with
the requirements of Standards for the Construction of Sewerage Facilities
for Realty Improvements promulgated by the State Commissioner of Health.
C.
Where sewage disposal is to be effected by means of a
wastewater treatment plant discharging a treated effluent into the waters
of this state, such wastewater treatment plant shall be designed and constructed
in accordance with the Rules and Regulations for the Preparation and Submission
of Plans for Sewer Systems and Wastewater Treatment Plants established by
the New Jersey State Department of Health.
D.
Subsurface sewage disposal systems or a wastewater treatment
plant to serve the mobile home park shall not be approved where a sanitary
sewer is available within 100 feet of the boundary of the mobile home park.
Sanitary sewers shall be separate and apart from any stormwater drainage
system.
