§ 26-26. New water and sewage disposal systems.

New and replacement water and sewage disposal systems, to be installed under permit(s) issued by the Environmental Health Division of the Public Health Department, shall be constructed to eliminate or minimize infiltration of floodwaters into systems, and discharge from systems and will be designed and located to avoid impairment to them or contamination from them during flooding. New or replacement conventional sewage disposal systems, except for tight lines, are not allowed within a ten (10) year floodplain. When feasible sewage disposal systems should be located a minimum of one hundred (100) feet from the ten (10) year flood plain. Mitigation measures, such as an engineered designed system, may allow placement of a sewage disposal system within a ten (10) year floodplain, subject to approval by Environmental Health Division.
