Section 7:15-5.19 - Individual subsurface sewage disposal systems and other small domestic treatment works in sewer service areas

(a) In sewer service areas depicted under N.J.A.C. 7:15-5.18(c)4 or 5, a wastewater management plan may require the construction of DTW identified in N.J.A.C. 7:15-4.4(a)1 or 2 to be accompanied by construction of collection system sewers that would be used when the depicted sewer service becomes available. This requirement shall exist only if it is specifically stated in the wastewater management plan.

(b) A wastewater management plan shall require that individual subsurface sewage disposal systems for individual residences can be constructed in depicted sewer service areas only if legally enforceable guarantees at the local government level are provided before such construction that use of such systems will be discontinued when the depicted sewer service becomes available.

(c) A wastewater management plan shall not apply requirements under (a) or (b) above to individual subsurface sewage disposal systems that do not require certifications from the Department under N.J.S.A. 58:11-25.1 or individual permits from the Department under N.J.A.C. 7:14A, unless that wastewater management plan includes adequate arrangements for enforcement of such requirements by one or more substate governmental units.

(d) Estimated wastewater flows under N.J.A.C. 7:15-5.18(d)8 and (e)3 shall include flows that will be received when use of DTW identified in N.J.A.C. 7:15-4.4(a)1 and 2 is discontinued when depicted sewer service becomes available.
