provisions of this chapter.
No property owner, builder, or developer shall be issued a building
permit for a new dwelling or structure requiring sanitary facilities

The use of the Village of Waterloo public sewers shall be strictly limited and restricted, except as provided in §
195-14, to receive and accept the discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial wastes generated on or discharged from real property within the bounds of the service area of the POTW.
The Village of Waterloo Board, on the recommendation of the
Superintendent, shall have the authority to enter into agreements
to accept sewage and other wastes, including industrial wastes, generated
by or discharged from persons outside the service area of the POTW.
A. If the person is a municipality, that municipality shall have enacted
a sewer use chapter as restrictive on the discharge of sewage and
other wastes as the restrictions contained in this chapter.
B. If the person is not a municipality, the acceptance shall be made
only with the expressed written consent of the Superintendent (the
issuance of a permit) setting forth the terms and conditions of such
acceptance.
At the recommendation of the Superintendent, who determines
that: one or more segments of the POTW is exceeding its hydraulic
capacity at any time, or any specific purpose of this chapter is being
violated, the Village of Waterloo Board shall have the authority to
limit or deny new connections to the POTW until the conditions leading
to the moratorium are corrected. Such correction may be by:
A. Construction of new facilities; or
B. Enlarging existing facilities; or
C. Correction of inflow and infiltration; or
D. Cleaning and repairing of existing facilities.
All requirements, directives, and orders calling for mandatory
use of the sewers, within the service area of the POTW, for the proper
discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial wastes,
shall be established and given by the Village of Waterloo Board, NYSDEC,
USEPA, and/or other such state or federal agencies which have enforcement
powers.
