Where a public wastewater treatment plant and collection system is accessible, or where such facilities are to be constructed as a condition of approval of any application for development, the developer shall construct such wastewater treatment facilities and/or sanitary sewer lines and building connections in accordance with the Montgomery Township Wastewater Management Plan and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection permit requirements and in such a manner as to make adequate sewage treatment available to each lot and building within the development.

Where, in the written opinion of the Board of Health to the Planning Board or the Zoning Board of Adjustment, as the case may be, the soil characteristics of the subject land are of such quality to permit the use of subsurface sewage disposal systems as a means of sewage disposal, the same may be approved in the absence of accessibility to a public wastewater treatment plant or the construction of such treatment facilities by the developer.

In the event of approval of the use of individual subsurface disposal systems, the Planning Board or Zoning Board of Adjustment, as the case may be, additionally may require the installation of sewer lines, which must include connections to each building, for future use when public sewage treatment facilities are provided to serve the realty improvements to be constructed in the development, provided that this additional requirement shall not apply to developments within the MR, R-5, or MR/SI Districts.

The end fitting of all dry sanitary sewer building connection lines shall have a tamper proof plug or cap, temporarily sealed with a material that can be removed to utilize the fitting when the system is to be activated. The Plumbing Subcode Official or the Plumbing Inspector shall affix an adhesive backed disc on the cap or plug bearing a preprinted message and instructions related to tampering and future use, that will be sufficient to alert and warn the original and subsequent occupants of the building. The capping and plugging shall be performed by the developer at his expense and the message disc shall be provided and attached by Township representatives.

All sanitary sewer lines shall be air and mandrel tested. Additionally, all lines shall be televised and a videotape of the lines shall be provided to the Township Engineer immediately prior to the activation of the sewer lines or acceptance of the streets, whichever occurs earlier.
