discharged to sanitary sewers.
D. No person(s) shall discharge or cause to be discharged any of
the following described waters or wastes to any public sewers:
• (1) Any gasoline, benzene, naphtha, fuel oil or other flam-
mable or explosive liquid, solid or gas.
(2) Any waters containing toxic or poisonous solids, liquids
or gases in sufficient quantity, either singly or by inter-
action with other wastes, to injure or interfere with any
waste treatment process, to constitute a hazard to hu-
mans or animals, to create a public nuisance or to create
any hazard in the receiving waters of the wastewater
treatment plant.
(3) Any waters or wastes having a pH lower than six point
five (6.5) or in excess of nine point zero (9.0), or having
any other corrosive property capable of causing damage
or hazard to structures, equipment and personnel of the
wastewater works.
(4) Any waters or wastes containing heat in such quantities
as to cause influent temperature at the treatment facility
to exceed one hundred four degrees Fahrenheit (104° F.)
[forty degrees Celsius (40° C.)].
(5) Solid or highly viscous substances in quantities of or
such size capable of causing obstruction to the flow in
sewers or other interference with the proper operation of
the wastewater facilities such as, but not limited to,,
ashes, bones, cinders, sand, mud, straw, shavings, metal,
glass, rags, feathers, tar, plastics, wood, unground gar-
bage, whole blood, paunch manure, hair and fleshings,
entrails, paper dishes, cups, milk containers, etc., either
whole or ground by garbage grinders.
(6) Any substances which may cause the wastewater treat-
ment facility's effluent or any other produce of the waste-
water facility such as residues, sludges or scums to be
unsuitable for reclamation process where the wastewater
7609 4-25-86
§ 76-4 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-4
facility is pursuing a reuse and reclamation program. In
no case, shall a substance discharged to the wastewater
facility cause the facility to be in noncompliance with
sludge use or disposal criteria, guidelines or regulations
developed under Section 405 of the Clean Water Act; any
criteria, guidelines or regulations affecting sludge use or
disposal developed pursuant to the Resource Conserva-
tion and Recovery Act, the Clean Air Act or the Toxic is
Substances Control Act; or state criteria applicable to
the sludge management method being used.
(7) Any liquids, solids or gases which, by reason of their na-
ture or quantity, are, or may be, sufficient either alone
or by interaction with other substances to cause fire or
explosion or be injurious in any other way to the waste-
water treatment facility or to the operation of the waste-
water treatment facility. At no time, shall two (2) succes-
sive readings on an explosion hazard meter, at the point
of discharge into the sewage collection system (or at any
point in the system) be more than five percent (5%) nor
any single reading over ten percent (10%) of the lower
explosive limit (LEL) of the meter.
E. The following described substances, materials, waters or waste
shall be limited in discharges to municipal systems to concen-
trations or quantities which will not harm either the sewers,
wastewater treatment process or equipment, will not have an
adverse effect on the receiving water or will not otherwise
endanger lives, limb or public property, or constitute a nui-
sance. The FISD, acting upon the recommendation of techni-
cal advisors, may set limitations lower than the limitations
established in the regulations below, if in their opinion, such
more severe limitations are necessary to meet the above ob-
jectives. In forming their opinion as to the acceptability, the •
Water Pollution Control Authority will give consideration to
such factors as the quantity of subject waste in relation to
flows and velocities in the sewers, materials of construction of
the sewers, the wastewater treatment plant, degree of treat-
ability of the waste in the wastewater treatment plant and
other pertinent factors. The limitations of restrictions on
7610 4 - 25 - 86

charge permit to be exceeded.
F. Restriction of deleterious waste flows:
(1) If any waters or wastes are discharged or are proposed
to be discharged to the public sewers, which waters con-
tain the substance or possess the characteristics enumer-
ated in § 76-4E of this Article, and/or which, in the
judgment of the Water Pollution Control Authority, may
have a deleterious effect upon the wastewater facilities,
processes, equipment or receiving waters, or which oth-
erwise create a hazard to life or constitute a public nui-
sance, the FISD may:
(a) Reject the wastes;
(b) Require pretreatment to an acceptable condition for
discharge to the public sewers;
(c) Require control over the quantities and rates of dis-
charge; and/or
• (d) Require payment to cover the added cost of han-
dling and treating the wastes.
(2) If the FISD and DEC allows the pretreatment or equali-
zation of waste flows, the design and installation of the
plants and equipment shall be subject to the review and

the opinion of the FISD, they are necessary for the proper
handling of liquid wastes containing floatable grease in ex-
cessive amounts, or any flammable wastes, sand or other
harmful ingredients, except that such interceptors shall not
be required for private living quarters or dwelling units. All
interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the
FISD and shall be located as to be readily and easily accessi-
ble for cleaning and inspection.
H. Where pretreatment of flow -equalizing facilities are provided
or required for any waters or wastes, they shall be main-
tained continuously in satisfactory and effective operation by

When required by the DEC or the FISD, the owner of any
property serviced by a building sewer carrying indus. :al
wastes shall install a suitable structure together with such
necessary meters and other appurtenances in the building
sewer to facilitate observation, sampling and measurement of
the wastes. Such structure, when required, shall be accessibly
and safely located, and shall be constructed in accordance
with plans approved by the FISD. The structure shall be in-
stalled by the owner(s) at his expense and shall be maintained
by him so as to be safe, accessible and in satisfactory opera-
tion at all times.
J. The FISD may require a user of sewer services to provide
information needed to determine compliance with this Arti-
cle. These requirements may include but are not limited to:
(1) Wastewater discharge peak rate and volume over a spec-
ified time period.

(8) Provide certification that the user is not discharging
contaminated water such as stormwater, groundwater
or subsurface drainage to the sanitary sewer system and
that the piping system to convey such waters is com-
pletely separate from the sanitary sewer system.
K. All measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics of
waters and wastes to which reference is made in this Article
shall be determined in accordance with the latest edition of
Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Waste-
water, published by the American Public Health Association.
Sampling methods, location, times, durations and frequencies
are to be determined on an individual basis subject to ap-
proval by the Superintendent. Sampling shall be carried out
by customarily accepted methods to reflect the effect of con-
stituents upon the sewage works and to determine the exist-
ence of hazards to life, limb and property. The particular an-
alyses involved will determine whether a twenty -four-hour
composite of all outfalls of a premises is - appropriate or
whether a grab sample or samples should be taken. Normal-
ly, but not always, BOD and suspended solids analyses are
obtained from twenty -four-hour composites of all outfalls
whereas pH's are determined from periodic grab samples.
L. The admission in the public sewer of any waters or wastes
having a five-day BOD greater than three hundred (300) mil-
ligrams per liter by weight, or containing more than three
hundred fifty (350) milligrams per liter by weight of sus-
pended solids, or containing any quantity of substance having
the characteristics described in § 764D or having a chlorine
demand of more than fifteen (15) milligrams per liter by
7615 4-E5-86
§ 76-4 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-4
weight or having an average daily flow greater than ten per-
cent (10%) of the average daily sewage flow of the District,
shall be subject to the review and approval of the FISD.
Where necessary in the opinion of the FISD, the owner(s)
shall provide, at his expense, such preliminary treatment as
may be necessary to reduce the BOD to three hundred (300)
milligrams per liter by weight, the suspended solids to three
hundred fifty (350) milligrams per liter by weight, and the
chlorine demand to fifteen (15) milligrams per liter by weight,
or to reduce objectionable characteristics or constitutents to
within the maximum limits provided for in § 764D or to con-
trol the quantities and rates of discharge of such waters or
wastes. Plans, specifications and any other pertinent informa-
tion relating to proposed preliminary treatment facilities
shall be submitted for the approval of the FISD and of any or
all state regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and no con-
struction of such facilities shall be commenced until said ap-
provals are obtained in writing.
M. Determination of exclusion of wastes. In determining wheth-
er any waste discharged or proposed to be discharged into
any public sewer is to be excluded, consideration will be giv-
en to the quantity, time or times, rate and manner of dis-
charge, dilution and character of the waste in question, the
size of the sewer into which the waste is to be discharged, the
probable quantity of sewage or other wastes likely in said
sewer and other pertinent facts. Minute quantities of a waste
which would be objectionable in larger quantities may be ac-
cepted if sufficiently diluted when and as discharged, or if the
quantity discharged is small as compared with the flow in the
receiving sewer; but any permission to discharge minute
quantities of an otherwise excluded waste shall be revocable
at any time by the Superintendent.
N. Pretreatment facilities. At all premises where wastes or sub-
stances specified to be excluded from public sewers by these
regulations are present and liable to be discharged directly or
indirectly into said sewers, suitable and sufficient piping
layouts, oil, grease, sand and flammable waste traps or sep-
arators, screens, settling tanks, diluting devices, storage or
7616 4-25-86
§ 76-4 SEWERS § 76-4
regulating chambers, treatment, cooling or other equipment
and devices shall be provided. These shall be maintained and
properly operated by the owner(s) of the premises or his
agent at his expense to ensure that no waste or substance is
discharged in violation of the requirements of these regulations.
0. All measurements, tests and analyses of the characteristics of
waters and wastes to which reference is made in this section
shall be determined in accordance with the latest edition of
Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Sew-
age. In the event that no special manhole has been required,
the control manhole shall be considered to be the nearest
downstream manhole in the public sewer to the point at
which the building sewer is connected.
P. Each user shall provide protection from accidental discharge
of prohibited materials or other substances regulated by this
Article. Facilities to prevent accidental discharge of prohibit-
ed materials shall be provided and maintained at the owner(s)
or user's own cost and expense. The Commissioner of DEC
may require that plans showing facilities and operating proce-
dures be submitted for review and approval prior to con-
struction of the facilities.
(1) Within five (5) days following an accidental discharge,
the user shall submit to the Director and Commissioner
of DEC a detailed written report describing the cause of
the discharge and the measures to be taken by the user
to prevent similar future occurrences. Such notification
shall not relieve the user of any expenses, loss, damage
or other liability which may be incurred as a result of
damage to the wastewater treatment facility, fish kills,
aquatic plants or any other damage to persons or proper-
ty; nor shall such notification relieve the user of any
• fines, civil penalties or other liability which may be im-
posed by this Article or other applicable law.
(2) A notice shall be permanently posted on the user's bulle-
tin board or other prominent place advising employees
whom to call in the event of a dangerous discharge. Em-
ployers shall ensure that all employees are advised of the
emergency notification procedure.

§ 76-5 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-7
§ 76-5. Discharges from private systems.
No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged into any pub-
lic sewer, either directly or indirectly, any overflow or effluent from
a septic tank, cesspool, subsurface drainage trench, bed or filter or
other receptacle storing organic waste.
§ 76-6. Permit required to work on public sewers; tampering
prohibited; penalties.
A. Connections to, alterations to or repairs to any public sewer or
the manholes or other appurtenances of said sewer system in
the FISD shall not be made by any person without a permit
issued by the Superintendent.
B. No unauthorized person shall open the cover of; enter or alter
any manhole or other appurtenance of any public sewer,.
place or insert in any public sewer or its appurtenances any
foreign material which said sewer or its appurtenances was
not intended to receive nor shall any person damage, destroy,
uncover, deface or tamper in any way with any public sewer
or its appurtenances. Any person violating this provision of
this Article shall be subject to arrest under a charge of disor-
derly conduct.
§ 76-7. Building sewer permits; fees.
A. Application and fees.
(1) 'There shall be building permits for sewers for residen-
tial and commercial service. The owner(s) or his agent

7621 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-9
§.76-9. Standards for building sewers.
The following requirements of this section shall apply to any per-
son licensed to do sewer work and who has a building or house sewer
permit to do such sewer work as provided in §§ 76-7 and 76-8 of this
Article.
A. Old building sewers may be used and connected to a public •
sewer when serving new buildings only when they are found
on examination or test by the Town Engineer to meet all re-
quirements of this section. The Town Engineer may require,
where indicated, the uncovering of old sewers for inspection.
B. A separate and independent building sewer shall be provided
for every building, except that, when two (2) or more build-
ings are so situated that separate and independent building
sewers for each building would be impractical or impose un-
necessary hardship, the FISD may authorize a single build-
ing sewer connection to the public sewer subject to such
terms and conditions as to easement, design and construction
as the Town Engineer may require.
C. No building shall be connected to a public sewer unless the
plumbing system of said building has a soil vent pipe ex-
tended to a point above the roof. The FISD may require that
no running trap, main house trap or other device which
might prevent the free flow of air throughout the whole
course of the building sewer, house drain and said soil vent
pipe, will be allowed.
D. The building sewer shall be cast-iron soil pipe, vitrified clay
sewer pipe, polyvinyl chloride pipe or other suitable material
approved by the FISD. All .pipe materials shall conform to
the latest standard specifications of the ASTM as approved
by the FISD. Any part of the building sewer that is located
within ten (10) feet of a water service pipe shall be construct- •
ed of cast-iron soil pipe. Wherever possible, water service and
house sewer pipes shall be laid in separate trenches. Where
laid in the same trench, the water pipe shall be laid on a
bench at least twelve (12) inches above the top of the sewer
pipe and at least twelve (12) inches, and preferably eighteen .
(18) inches, from the side of the sewer trench. Cast-iron pipe
7622 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SEWERS § 76-9
may be required where the building sewer is exposed to
damage by tree roots. If installed in filled or unstable ground,
the building sewer shall be of cast-iron soil pipe, except that -
nonmetallic material may be accepted if laid on a suitable —_
concrete bed or cradle as approved by the FISD. No building
sewer shall be located within twenty-five (25) feet of a cellar - -
• drain or groundwater drain unless pipe is of cast-iron.
E. The size and slope of the building sewer shall be subject to
the approval of the FISD, but in no event shall the diameter
be less than six (6) inches. The slope of such six-inch pipe
shall be not less than one-fourth (%) inch per foot. -
F. In all buildings where the building drain is too low to permit
gravity flow to the public sewer, sewage or other wastewaters
carried by such drain shall be lifted by approved artificial
means and discharged to the building sewer through a cast-
iron force main. All building drains, whether force mains or
gravity lines, shall be of cast-iron soil pipe from the inner face —
of the building wall to the point of connection with the build-
ing or house sewer, and all joints, including that with the
building sewer, shall be made gastight and watertight by a
method approved by the Town Engineer.
G. Excavations and laying of building sewers.
(1) All excavations required for the installation of building
sewer shall be open trench work unless otherwise ap-
proved by the Town Engineer. Whenever possible the
building sewer shall be brought. to the building at an
elevation below the basement floor. No building sewer
shall be laid parallel to or within three (3) feet of any
bearing wall which might thereby be weakened. The
depth of the building sewer shall be sufficient to afford
protection from frost and in general such depth shall not
be less than three (3) feet below the finishedground sur-
face at all points. All building sewers shall be laid at
uniform grade and in straight alignment insofar as
possible.
(2) Building sewers shall be laid in the following manner:
Gravel bedding material will be required below all pipe
7623 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-9
and all utility structures. Gravel bedding shall be placed
to the full width of the trench and to a depth of six (6)
inches below the bottom of the pipe invert. Gravel bed-
ding shall be placed twelve (12) inches beyond the widths
of a utility structure foundation (base) and to a depth of
six (6) inches from the bottom of the excavation to the
bottom of the foundation (base). After a pipe is bedded
the trench shall be filled to the center line of the pipe •
with gravel bedding except at the joint. After the joint is
inspected, that portion around .the pipe shall be carefully
and thoroughly tamped. From the center line of the pipe
to a point twelve (12) inches above the top of the pipe, the
backfill shall be sand, placed by hand and hand tamped.
Above this point, backfill shall be suitable material from
excavation or bank -run gravel. This backfill shall be
placed in layers eight (8) inches deep and each layer
shall be compacted with mechanical tampers to not less
than ninety-five percent (95%) of maximum dry density.
(3) Building sewers shall be located at a sufficient distance
from other parallel pipes to permit alterations or repairs
to any such pipes or the sewer pipe without disturbing
the other; they shall be well cleaned inside after laying;
and they shall conform to all reasonable requirements
for good constructions.
(4) The open ends of building sewers, building drains and
building connection laterals shall be kept closed or pro-
tected during construction and during periods when
work is suspended in order to exclude from the public
sewer all water or debris which might obstruct, damage
or otherwise be detrimental to the public sewer or sew-
age works. Abandoned building sewers or drains shall
be likewise promptly closed and sealed off from any pub-
lic sewer at the expense of the owner of the property.
H. All joints and connections for or between building sewers,
building drains and building connection laterals shall be
made gastight and watertight as follows:
(1) ,Cast-iron, vitrified -clay sewer pipe, polyvinyl chloride
pipe or other suitable material approved by the FISD
7624 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SEWERS_ § 76-9
shall be gasketed and equipped with tyton or mechanical
joints. The pipe and joints shall conform to all applicable
ASA and ASTM specifications. No paint, varnish or oth-
er coatings shall be permitted on any joint until after the
joint has been tested and approved.
(2) Air testing.
(a) The District shall require the use of low-pressure
air testing of gravity sewers to ensure that the joints
are gastight and watertight. The sewer line under
test shall be plugged at both ends. The air hose shall
be connected to a tapped plug to be used for air
inlet to the line. The hose will be connected to port-
able air control equipment which must include a
shut-off valve, pressure -regulating valve, pressure -
reduction valve and a monitoring pressure gauge
with range from zero (0) to five (5) pounds per
square inch. Air shall be introduced from the air
source through the control equipment to the pipeline.
(b) Air shall be slowly supplied to the test section, until
a constant pressure of three and five -tenths (3.5)
pounds per square inch gauge is maintained. The
air pressure shall be regulated to prevent the pres-
sure inside the pipe from exceeding five and zero -
tenths (5.0) pounds per 'square inch gauge. When
constant pressure of three and five -tenths (3.5)
pounds per square inch gauge is reached, the air
supply shall be throttled to maintain the internal
pressure above three and zero -tenths (3.0) pounds
per square inch gauge and shut off or disconnected
from the air supply. The gauge shall' be observed
until the air pressure reaches three and zero -tenths
(3.0) pounds per square inch gauge. At three and
zero -tenths (3.0) pounds per square inch gauge, the
pressure drop shall be timed with a stop watch un-
til the pressure drops to two and five -tenths (2.5)
pounds per square inch gauge. The time required
for this zero -and -five -tenth -pound -per -square -inch -
gauge pressure drop shall be recorded and com-
pared to the following tabulation.
7625, 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-9
(c) Time requirements.
[1] If the time for the zero -and -five -tenth -pound -
per -square -inch -gauge drop is less than that
shown, the section will be considered to have
failed, and the source of leakage must be locat-
ed, repaired and the section retested.
Time Requirements for Air Testing
Pipe Size Time
(inches) (minutes)
8 or less 5:06
10 6:22
12 7:39
14 9:35
[2] Where groundwater level is about the invert of
the sewer line, the air test pressure must be
increased forty-three hundredths (0.43) pounds
per square inch for each foot the groundwater
level is above the invert of the pipe, and the
resulting pressure computed will be used for
the starting pressure. The allowable drop [five -
tenths (0.5) pounds per square inch gauge] and
the time requirements will not change.
(3).. All joints -in vitrified clay pipe, polyvinyl chloride pipe or
other approved pipe or between such pipes shall be made
with rubber or similar gaskets. Hot poured jointing
materials or cement mortar shall not be approved. Pipe
and joints shall conform to all applicable ASTM specifica-
tions.
(4) Any jointing materials, other than those described in
Subsection H(1), (2) and (3) may be used only upon ap- •
proval by the Town Engineer.
`(5) ,The connection of the building sewer into the public
sewer shall be made at the Y -branch if such branch is
available at a suitable location. If the public sewer is
twelve (12) inches in diameter or less, and no -properly
located Y -branch is available, the owner(s) shall at his
7626 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SEWERS § 76-9
expense install a Y -branch in the public sewer at the lo-
cation specified by the Town Engineer. Where the public
sewer is greater than twelve (12) inches in diameter, and
no properly located Y -branch is available, a neat hole
may be cut into the public sewer to receive the building
sewer, with entry in the downstream direction at an an-
gle of about forty-five degrees (45°). A forty -five -degree
L may be used to make such connection, with the spigot
end cut so as not to extend past the inner surface of the
public sewer. Where street sewers are of asbestos -ce-
ment sewer pipe, the connection may be made with a
cast-iron saddle in the event that no fitting is available
on the street sewer. The invert of the building sewer at
the point of connection to twelve -inch diameter sewers or
larger shall be connected to either match the center lines
of such street sewers or be higher. A smooth neat joint
shall be made, and the connection made secure and wa-
tertight by encasement in concrete. Special fittings may
be used on the connection only when approved by the
District.
I. When the building sewer trench has been excavated, and the
building sewer repaired, altered or constructed, and is ready
for inspection and connection to the public sewer, the Town
Engineer shall be notified during regular working hours not
less than eight (8) hours in advance of the time when the con-
nection to the public sewer is planned. The connection of the
building sewer to the public sewer shall be made under the
supervision of the FISD, and a record of all said connections
shall be kept by the District. If any person constructs, in-
stalls, alters or repairs any building sewer or drain connect-
ing with a publicsewer in the District in violation of any
section of this Article or fails to give adequate notice to the
• Town Engineer for an inspection of the work, said Town En-
gineer may order all or any portion of said work to be uncov-
ered for inspection and approval.
J. All excavations for building sewer installations shall be ade-
quately guarded with barricades and lights so as to protect
the public from hazard.
7627 4-25-86
§ 76-9 SOUTHOLD CODE § 76-10
K. If any person, after proper order or direction from the Dis-
,trict fails to remedy any violation of this section or of any
other section of these regulations, the Town Engineer may
disconnect the building sewer of the property where the vio-
lation exists from the public sewer and may collect the cost of
making such disconnection from any person or persons re-
sponsible for, or willfully concerned in, or who profited by
such violation of the requirements of these regulations. •
§ 76-10. Powers and authority of inspectors.
A. The Superintendent and any duly authorized employees of
the District, the Environmental Protection Agency and/or the
DEC bearing proper credentials and identification shall be
permitted to enter all properties for the purpose of inspection,
observation, measurement, sampling and testing in accor-
dance with the provisions of this Article. The Superintendent
or his representative shall have no authority to inquire into
any processes including metallurgical, chemical, oil, refining,
ceramic, paper or other industries beyond that point that has
a direct bearing on the kind and source of discharge to the
sewers or waterways or facilities for waste treatment.
B. While performing the necessary work on private properties
referred to in § 76-10A above, the Superintendent or duly
authorized employees of the District shall observe all safety
rules applicable to the premises established by the owner(s)
and the owner(s) shall be held harmless for injury or death to
theDistrict employees and against liability claims and de-
mands for personal injury or property damage asserted against
the owner(s) and growing out of the gauging and sampling
operation, except as such may be caused by negligence or
failure of the owner(s) to maintain safe conditions as required •
in § 764I.
C. All duly authorized employees and/or representatives of the
District bearing proper credentials and identification shall be
permitted to enter all private properties through which the
District holds a duly negotiated easement for the purposes of,
but not limited to inspection, observation, measurement, sam-
7628 4-25-86
§ 76-10 SEWERS § 76-12
pling, repair and maintenance of any portion of the sewage
works lying within said easement. All entry and subsequent
work, if any, on said easement, shall be done in full accor-
dance with the terms of the duly negotiated easement per-
taining to the private property involved.
§ 76-11. Penalties for offenses; disconnection.
A. Any person found to be violating any provision of this Article
except § 76-6 shall be served by the District with written no-
tice stating the nature of the violation and providing a rea-
sonable time limit for the satisfactory correction thereof. The
offender shall, within the period of time stated in such notice,
permanently cease all violations.
B. Any person who shall violate any provision of this Article
shall be fined not more than one hundred dollars ($100.) or
imprisoned not more than thirty (30) days or both. Each
day that any violation of this Article continues and each day
that any person continues to discharge prohibited wastes or
substances into any public sewer shall be deemed to be a sep-
arate offense for the purpose of applying the penalty provided
in this section.
C. Any person who fails to cease and desist violation of this Arti-
cle upon notification thereof, may after the period of time
stated in the notice for correction thereof be disconnected
from the public sewer system. Notice of disconnection shall
be served by the District ten (10) days prior to the actual
disconnection.
§ 76-12. (Discretionary monitoring of effluents.
• The District may require as a condition to the connection and or
continued use of the District's sewer facilities, that flow -metering,
pH -monitoring and suitable effluent -sampling stations be provided
at the owner(s) expense by industry connected to the District sewer
system as required by prudent engineering standards.
