A. 
The construction and connection of sewers for buildings shall be in compliance with the terms and provisions of applicable Town, village, participating members and JRSB's laws, resolutions and regulations.
B. 
A construction permit shall be applied for and obtained from the JRSB before a person can connect to any sewer located on properties within the jurisdictional limits of the participating members and/or on properties outside of the jurisdictional limits of the participating members where services have been contracted for with the JRSB.
C. 
Construction permits shall not be issued unless it has been determined by the JRSB that there is capacity available in all downstream sewerage facilities.
D. 
All existing and new residential users which are below the elevation of the street which is immediately in front of the structure must install, at the expense of the homeowner, a check valve. Such valve and installation is subject to the approval of the JRSB.
E. 
All existing and new residential users must install, at the expense of the homeowner, a check valve. Such valve and installation is subject to the approval of the JRSB.
A. 
The JRSB, by proper resolution, shall have the right, in its discretion and upon terms and conditions for payment as may be mutually agreed upon, to contract in writing for the right to use any sewer serving property located wholly or partly outside the JRSB's jurisdictional limits.
B. 
In the event a contract is made pursuant to Subsection A, a user of any sewer serving property wholly or partly outside the JRSB's jurisdictional limits shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of this law; all payments and charges set forth in this law and/or any agreement between the parties; all equivalent costs, use fees, taxes, charges and expenses as would be imposed upon and paid by a user situated within the jurisdictional limits of the JRSB.
C. 
If any property of a person desirous of becoming a user is situated outside the jurisdictional limits of the JRSB and not contiguous thereto so that it may not properly be annexed to and become part of the JRSB's jurisdictional limits, the JRSB, in its discretion, may permit such a connection, provided that a contract providing essentially the following shall be entered into between the JRSB and the user:
(1) 
The user may connect buildings situated only on the fully described tract set forth in the agreement and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations of the JRSB and local, state and federal governments.
(2) 
The wastes and material discharged shall meet all present and future standards for content and volume. The user shall further agree to pay for all future connections and user, treatment or service charges.
(3) 
The user, its successors and assigns shall, in addition to costs noted previously, pay annually an amount equivalent to sewer use fees computed pursuant to resolution or rate schedule.
(a) 
The amount, when computed by the JRSB, shall be charged to the user, its successors and assigns. The statement sent to the user shall be paid within 30 days after the date of sending. Any amount remaining unpaid after the due date shall draw interest at the rate of 1% per month until paid.
(b) 
The amount computed for the use shall be prorated from the date of the contract.
(c) 
If the user, its successors or assigns thereof shall fail to pay the amount when due, each and every sewer upon the property or any subdivided tract thereof for which payment is not made shall be disconnected by the owner from any other sewer which was connected under the contract and ultimately attaches to the JRSB POTW. The user shall have caused or required its sewer system to be constructed within the property in order that separate tracts may be so disconnected and hereby gives and grants the JRSB an irrevocable assessment and right for the purpose of going upon the same and disconnecting any such sewer if the user, its successors or assigns fail to disconnect promptly when such is required by the JRSB.
(d) 
In addition to the right of disconnection, the JRSB shall have a lien upon the property or subdivided portion of it in the amount of any unpaid charges due therefrom. Upon the filing of notice, the lien shall be deemed perfected, and the lien may be charged and redeemed or foreclosed and the property sold to satisfy the unpaid charges in accordance with the law.
(e) 
The JRSB shall have the additional right to file a civil suit to recover the amount of the lien, the full cost incurred in disconnection and all its reasonable legal expenses and attorney's fees incurred as a result of the suit.
(f) 
All amounts charged under this section of this law are due and shall continue to be due hereunder, whether or not said sewer is disconnected, and no sewer shall be reconnected until the JRSB is paid in full for all amounts due to it and, in addition, the JRSB shall be paid a deposit equal to the estimated charge for the next succeeding year. This deposit shall be held by the JRSB in escrow and will be returned upon satisfactory payment of amounts due the JRSB for a period of two years.
(4) 
The JRSB shall not have dedicated to it or own any sewer system installed within such property unless such sewer system is accepted by the JRSB in writing and the user, its successors and assigns shall maintain the same at its own cost; provided, however, that this provision shall not be construed to prohibit the dedication of part or all of said sewer system to another unit of government.
(5) 
Upon conveyance by the owner of all or any subdivided portion or tract of said property, the successor in title shall succeed to all rights and liabilities hereunder, and said owner shall have no future liability to the JRSB in respect to such tract except as shall have accrued as of the date the instrument of conveyance is recorded in the office of the Rockland County Clerk, New City, State of New York.
(6) 
In the event that such property therein described or any subdivided or separate tract thereof shall be annexed to the JRSB by proper ordinance or law, then the agreement executed pursuant to Subsection C of this section as to such property or the subdivided or separate tract thereof which is so annexed shall then terminate and be of no further force and effect.
(7) 
The agreement executed under Subsection C shall be recorded in the office of the Executive Director of the JRSB, Beach Road, West Haverstraw, State of New York, which recording shall constitute notice to any successor or assign of the owner of its terms and provisions and to which any subsequent conveyance or assignment of the owner shall be subject.
(8) 
If any part or provision of the agreement shall be found or held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then the entire agreement shall terminate, and all sewers of the owner or its successors or assigns shall be promptly disconnected from any such system which ultimately connects to the JRSB's POTW.
(9) 
The applicant for treatment service under an agreement pursuant to Subsection C shall agree to assume user charges, industrial waste charges and/or capital surcharge, if applicable, and to obtain from the JRSB the proper building permit by which the connection is allowed and the discharge permit, if applicable, which indicates what discharge will be made to the POTW.
A. 
The JRSB reserves the right to require any nonresidential user to submit quarterly to the JRSB (on forms provided by the JRSB) a certified statement of the characteristics of its industrial wastes discharged into the sewers and the JRSB's POTW or to any sewers connected to the JRSB's POTW. This statement shall be filed with the JRSB no later than the 10th day of the month following the quarter for which the report is required.
B. 
The waste characteristics to be measured and certified by the user shall be:
(1) 
BOD in milligrams per liter.
(2) 
Suspended solids in milligrams per liter.
(3) 
Such other constituents of wastewater as directed by the JRSB.
C. 
Should there be a difference in understanding between the JRSB and the nonresidential user as to the characteristics in this section, the JRSB reserves the right to use the JRSB's results from analysis for purposes of billing. Should submission not be made during the ten-day period, the JRSB shall use its results from analysis for purposes of billing.
D. 
Whenever required by the JRSB, the owner of any property serviced by a building sewer carrying nonresidential wastewater and material shall install a large manhole or sampling chamber in the building sewer in accordance with plans and specifications approved by the JRSB and installed and maintained at all times at the user's expense. There shall be ample room in each sampling chamber to accurately sample and gather composite samples for analysis. The chamber shall be safely, easily and independently (of other premises and buildings of user) accessible to authorized representatives of the JRSB at all times. Where construction of a sampling chamber is not economically or otherwise feasible, alternate arrangements for sampling may be arranged at the discretion of the JRSB.
E. 
Each sampling chamber shall contain a Parshall flume, weir or similar device with a recording and totalizing register for measuring liquid quantity, or the metered water supply to the industrial plant may be used as measure of liquid quantity where it is substantiated by the JRSB that the metered water supply and waste quantities are approximately the same or where a measurable adjustment agreed to by the JRSB is made in the metered water supply to determine the liquid waste quantity. In the event that the use of metered water supply or a measurable adjustment thereto is agreed to by the JRSB in lieu of a wastewater flow measurement device, the use of such an alternative flow measurement technique shall be conclusive against such nonresidential user for purposes of Articles XII and XIII of this law.
F. 
Samples shall be taken every hour or half hour, as determined by the JRSB, and properly refrigerated and composited in proportion to the flow for a representative twenty-four-hour sample. Such sampling shall be done as prescribed by the JRSB to ensure representative quantities for the entire reporting period. Minimum requirements for determination of representative quantities or characteristics shall include reevaluation during each twelve-month period. The determination of representative quantities and characteristics shall include not less than seven consecutive calendar days of twenty-four-hour composite samplings taken during periods of normal operation, together with acceptable flow measurements.
G. 
The sampling frequency, sampling chamber, metering device, sampling methods and analysis of samples shall be subject, at any time, to inspection and verification by the JRSB.
H. 
All measurements, tests and analysis of characteristics of waters and wastes to which reference is made in this section shall be determined in accordance with the definition of "standard methods" as specified in § 137-17 of this law.
I. 
The JRSB may elect, at its option, to have the metering and sample collection performed by the industrial user's personnel and have composite samples delivered to the JRSB laboratory for analysis. This procedure can also be terminated at any time by the JRSB upon reasonable notice.
A. 
Where a public sewer is not available as set forth in § 137-35 of this law, the building or structure shall be connected to a private sewer, and a disposal or treatment system shall be constructed in compliance with the terms and provisions of all applicable local, county, state and federal laws and/or regulations.
B. 
Within 90 days after a property served by a private sewer or disposal system as described in this section shall become subject to the terms and provisions of § 137-35G of this law, a direct connection shall be made to the public sewer according to the terms and provisions of the law, and all private sewers, disposal systems, septic tanks, cesspools and other appurtenances of such private sewer and disposal system shall be disconnected and abandoned, and all openings, tanks or other containers.
C. 
The JRSB and/or its participating members shall not be responsible in any way for the operation and maintenance of a private sewer or disposal system or facility.
D. 
No provisions of the law shall be construed to provide lesser requirements for private sewers and disposal systems as are presently or may hereafter be imposed and required by any other local governmental body or the state or federal government.
A. 
Nonindustrial users hauling liquid wastes to the POTW shall be assessed user-charge unit charges for billable flow, billable BOD and billable total suspended solids, the volume of which is determined for each by the JRSB.
B. 
Industrial users hauling liquid wastes to the POTW shall be assessed user charges as described in § 137-38A through C of this law and shall be assessed industrial cost-recovery unit charges on the billable flow, actual BOD and actual total suspended solids as described in Subsection A.
C. 
Liquid wastes hauled to the POTW containing concentrations of constituents in excess of the limits set forth in § 137-39 of this law shall not be accepted.
