All persons owning conduits shall obtain from the Department permits for each individual lateral conduit connected with the main conduit system along the route of the system. Written permission shall first be obtained from the owner of the property to make such excavation as necessary to do the work on his or her premises, and a copy of this permit shall be presented to the Department for approval. After approval, the Department shall issue a permit to open the street and do necessary work therein for the lateral conduits. Such part of any lateral or individual connection as shall be constructed in any street, alley, or other public place shall be constructed at the sole expense of the party or corporation owning the main conduit.
