§ 158-848. Prohibition of connections.

Latest version.

It shall be unlawful for any owner, tenant, or other person directly to discharge or to allow to be discharged directly from the premises owned or occupied by such person into the subpavement pipes or drains connecting the premises owned or occupied by such person, with the conduits constructed or to be constructed for the disposal of stormwater only, anything except the runoff from the rainfall upon such premises. Nothing in this section shall be construed as prohibiting owners, tenants or other persons from discharging into the open gutters of the streets any output from their premises permitted by the department of health. The intention of this section is to exclude the output of any privy, bath, sink, factory or other source of sewage from the drainage conduits and to confine it exclusively to the sewerage system or, in other words, to keep the drains for drainage and the sewers for sewerage.
