Each trailer court shall be supplied with water from an approved public
potable water supply, if available. If an approved public potable water supply
is not available, a water supply, approved by the local Board of Health, shall
be developed in accordance with the provisions of the Standards for Construction
of Water Supply Systems for Realty Improvements promulgated by the State Commissioner
of Health in accordance with c. 199, P.L. 1954, and if not, a public water supply system as defined herein shall
be considered a semipublic water supply. Water from semipublic water supplies
shall meet the standards of quality fixed by the State Commissioner of Health.
Water systems shall be designed to meet fire protection requirements of Article
XIV and shall include services to all buildings and all trailer spaces. The minimum capacity of the system shall be such as may be required by the authority responsible for fire protection and shall not be less than 125 gallons per trailer space per day. Piping shall be so arranged as to provide six gallons per minute at each trailer space outlet with a residual pressure of approximately 20 pounds per square inch with 20% of the outlets flowing at the prescribed rate of six gallons per minute. The water system of each trailer court shall be piped to all buildings and all trailer spaces.
No physical connection may be made between an approved public potable
water supply and an unapproved water supply. A semipublic water supply is
considered as an unapproved water supply for the purpose of this section even
though it may meet the potable water standards adopted by the State Department
of Health.
Individual water service connections provided for direct use by trailer
coaches shall be so constructed that they will not be damaged by the parking
of such coaches. The connections shall consist of a riser terminating at least
four inches above the ground level, with two three-fourths-inch valved outlets
threaded so that a flexible metallic tubing with a screw connection may be
attached between the riser and coach. The ground surface around the riser
pipe shall be graded to divert surface drainage away from the connection.
Drinking fountains shall be installed in or near service buildings and
in the playground area. The fountains shall be constructed of impervious material
with the nozzle protected with a rustproof guard and shall conform to the
American Standard Specifications for drinking fountains, ASA Z4.2-1942.
