(B) Applications. Applications for permits shall be made by the owner or authorized agent and the party employed to do the work, and shall state the location, name of owner, street number of the building to be connected and how it is to be occupied. No person shall extend any building sewer beyond the limits of the building or property for which the service connection permit has been given. No permit shall be issued for a service connection to any property or to any building on property which is not adjacent to a public sewer located in a public easement or street right-of-way abutting the property. No building sewer is to extend into a public easement or street right-of-way at an angle of less than 45 degrees as measured between the building sewer and the boundary line of the easement or right-of-way most parallel to the public sewer.
(C) Classes. There shall be two classes of building sewer permits: one for residential and commercial service, and one for service to establishments producing industrial wastes. In either case, the application shall be supplemented by any plans, specifications or any other information considered pertinent in the judgement of the city. The industry, as a condition of permit authorization, must provide information describing its wastewater constituents, characteristics and type of activity.
(D) Inspection and connection. The applicant for the building sewer permit shall notify the city when the building sewer is ready for inspection and connection to the public sewer. The connection and inspection shall be made under the supervision of the Administrator or authorized representative thereof. The entire building sewer shall be exposed for inspection.
