A. Construction water accounts are established for use of water during a construction period only and where no water is returned to the sewer system. Approval of this account will provide water for a limited period of time, not to exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days for new construction with the understanding that no water is returned to the sewer system. After this period, sewer and other charges will be automatically added unless an application for an extension is approved by the Director.
B. Prior to the return of any water to the sewer system and/or occupancy of the structure, whichever comes first, the account must be converted, by the Customer, to the appropriate account.
C. Current regulations regarding metering and installation of locking ball valves shall be observed.
D. Failure to have a contract for Utility Service approved prior to returning water to the sewer system, or occupancy of the structure, will result in a service charge being levied against the responsible contract holder and/or the Premises. This service charge will be at least three (3) times the estimated water consumption figure going back to the date of the tap. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent additional legal actions and fines as provided for by law.
