(A) The quantity of water delivered in, on, or to the lot, parcel of real estate, building, or dwelling unit and discharged into the sewage works obtained from sources other than a water utility that serves the lot, parcel of real estate, or building, shall be determined by the town in a manner as the town shall reasonably elect, and the sewer service charge shall be determined and billed at the rates as provided herein.
(B) In the event any lot, parcel of real estate, or building occupied by domestic users in either single or multiple dwelling units, which is or which is required to be connected with the sewage works or discharges sewage into the sewage works, either directly or indirectly, does not receive all of its water supplied by a water utility serving the lot, parcel of real estate, or building, and all the water delivered thereon is not measured by a water meter or is measured by a water meter that is not acceptable to the town, then the amount of the water delivered to the lot, parcel of real estate, or building shall be otherwise measured or determined by the town. The town may, in making this determination, require the owner or other interested party at his or her own risk and expense to install and maintain meters, weirs, volumetric measuring devices, or any other adequate method of measurement accepted by the town for the determination of quantity of sewage which is or should be discharged into the sewage works.
(C) If the town does not require installation of measuring devices, then the sewer service rate and charge, including the rates and charges for sewer collection facilities and sewer treatment facilities, shall be $57.59 per month for each dwelling unit upon the lot, parcel of real estate, or building located inside the town; and $86.34 per month for each dwelling unit upon the lot, parcel of real estate, or building located outside the town.
(D) In the event a lot, parcel of real estate, or building, other than one occupied and used by domestic users, which is or which is required to be connected with the sewage works or discharges sewage into the sewage works either directly or indirectly, does not receive all of its water supplied by a water utility serving the lot, parcel of real estate, or building, and all water delivered thereto is not measured by a water meter or is measured by a water meter that is not acceptable to the town, the owner of the lot, parcel of real estate, or building, or any other interested party shall, at his or her own risk and expense, install and maintain meters, weirs, volumetric measuring devices, or any other adequate method of measurement accepted by the town for the determination of the quantity of sewage which is or which should be discharged into the sewage works.
(E) In the event any lot, parcel of real estate, or building occupied and used other than by a domestic user which is or which is required to be connected with the sewage works or discharges sewage or other liquids into the sewage works, either directly or indirectly, and water is delivered to the premises in excess of 20,000 gallons per month, and it can be illustrated to the town that a portion of the water delivered to the premises as measured by a water meter or meters does not and cannot enter into the sewage works, then the town may permit the owner thereof or any other interested party, at his or her own risk and expense, to install and maintain meters, weirs, volumetric measuring devices, or any other adequate method of measurement accepted by the town for determination of the quantity of sewage which is or which should be discharged into the sewage works.
