Where a public sewer is not available, under the provisions of §
162-23, the sewer lateral for new buildings may be connected to a private wastewater disposal system complying with the provisions of the rules and regulations of the NYSDOH and the Town of Victor's Design and Construction Standards for Land Development.
No two separate, permanent buildings, where the intended use
for either is for a distinct and separate business or a dwelling,
shall be connected to the same individual septic tank and absorption
field.
Repairs requiring a construction permit shall be reviewed by
the local Code Enforcement Officer to determine the necessity for
proper documentation. All such repairs shall be completed in accordance
with the Town of Victor Design and Construction Standards.
The owner shall operate and maintain the private wastewater
disposal system in a satisfactory manner at all times, at the owner's
expense.
Where a private wastewater disposal system utilizes a cesspool
or a septic tank, septage shall be removed from the cesspool or septic
tank at least once every three years by a licensed hauler of trucked
and hauled wastes.
At such time as a direct connection shall be made to public
sewer, as directed by the Town Board, any cesspool, septic tank and
similar wastewater disposal facilities shall be cleaned of septage
by a licensed septage hauler and then either filled with clean sand,
bank-run gravel or earth or removed and properly disposed. When the
connection is made to the public sewer, the connection to the private
wastewater disposal facility shall be severed and both ends of the
old pipe shall be plugged.
No statement in this article shall be construed to prevent or
interfere with any additional requirements that may be deemed necessary
by the Town to protect the public health and welfare.
