§ 34-164. Improper use of sewers; discontinuance of service.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    The control authority is authorized to inspect any existing building service sewer and drain, lateral or collecting sewers that discharge wastewater directly or indirectly to the POTW. If it is found that such lateral or collecting sewers are used or maintained in such a way as to cause discharge of septic wastewater, groundwater or debris which exceeds the design criteria of such sewer, or any other substance deemed objectionable, the control authority will give notice of the unsatisfactory condition to the person responsible for such discharge and shall direct that the condition be corrected.

    (b)

    In cases of continuing noncompliance after such directive, the control authority, in its discretion, may discontinue service to persons responsible for such discharge.
