1 Section 30: Renewal of Service Connection. <br /> 2 The service line between the main and the service cock or meter may be <br /> 3 renewed by the Utilities Division at its expense upon the request of the <br /> 4 property owner only after the line has been in service twenty years or more <br /> 5 and has incurred internal corrosion or has otherwise deteriorated to the <br /> 6 extent that inadequate or otherwise unsatisfactory service exists. The <br /> 7 property owner, however, must first renew the service line between the <br /> 8 premises and the service cock or meter before the Utilities Division will <br /> 9 renew its section of the service connection line. This rule shall not apply <br /> 10 in the event the service line between the main and the service cock or meter <br /> 11 is copper or is demonstrated to deliver an adequate flow at the service cock <br /> 12 or meter. The foregoing notwithstanding, a service line between the main <br /> 13 and the service cock or meter may be renewed at the Utilities Division's <br /> 14 expense at any time the Utilities Superintendent considers that conditions <br /> 15 warrant such renewal. <br /> 16 Section 31: Dormant Services--Connections. <br /> 17 Any service connection which shall have been inactive, unused or <br /> 18 abandoned for a period of five years or the building removed from the lot <br /> 19 for at least twelve months shall be considered a dormant service and shall <br /> 20 be removed from the main by the Utilities Division. If a dormant service <br /> 21 has not been removed from the main by the Utilities Division and the service <br /> 22 pipe material is plastic or copper and has been determined to be a good <br /> 23 service by the Utilities Division, then the Utilities Division shall charge <br /> 24 a minimum fee of sixty dollars to test and reconnect the existing dormant <br /> 25 service. If a service connection is subsequently desired for all or a <br /> 26 portion of the premises or property previously supplied by a dormant service <br /> 27 which has been removed from the main by the Utilities Division, the owner of <br /> 28 the premises or property or its authorized agent shall make application and <br /> 29 pay for a new service connection in the manner prescribed herein and without <br /> 30 any credit whatsoever for the dormant service. <br /> 31 <br /> 32 <br /> 11 <br />
