D.C. Mun. Regs. r. 21-910
Temporary permits may be issued by the Director for the construction and maintenance of sanitary earth-pit privies or other types that the Director may approve for use during emergencies, during any and all kinds of public gatherings, and for use by workers on construction work until a water flush system of sewage disposal can be installed.
Temporary privies or other methods shall be installed and maintained in accordance with this chapter, except that cribbing of earth-pits will not be required when the soil is such that the sides of the pit will support the sills, floors, and superstructure of the building without caving during the period in which the privy is maintained.
If a privy or septic tank and subsoil sewage disposal system or other method is being maintained in a manner which endangers the public health or otherwise creates a nuisance, or is maintained in violation of this chapter, the permit may be revoked.
Permits issued for the maintenance of privies and septic tanks and subsoil sewage disposal systems or other methods may be revoked by the Director after the permittee has been given an opportunity to be heard.
Penalties for violations of this chapter shall be in accordance with D.C. Code § 6-604 (1995 Repl. Vol.).
