§ 26-108. Temporary Water Service.

   1.   Building Construction Purposes. Temporary water service for building construction purposes will be furnished from fire hydrants or other special hydrants at the rates herein specified (§ 26-124; § 26-125). Such services will be rendered only upon application and through a special connection which the Township will place on the hydrant. No hydrant connection shall be used at other than the designated location without permission from the Township.

   2.   Private Use. Temporary service from hydrants for private use may be furnished by the Township upon application; such service shall be under the supervision of the Township, and in accordance with the applicable rates, rents and charges set forth in § 26-124, § 26-125.

   3.   Reservation of Right to Eliminate Service or Place Meter Thereon. The consumer shall take care not to waste water through a temporary connection. Should it be found that an unnecessary amount of water is being used, the Township reserves the right to eliminate the connection at once, or it may place a meter thereon, in which case the expense of the change will be paid by the consumer. Thereafter, the water rates, rents and charges set forth in § 26-124 shall be applicable to such service.

The Township may meter any temporary connection. Wherever this is done, the rates, rents and charges set forth in § 26-124 hereof shall replace the flat rate charge and thereafter be applicable to such service.
