§67.0218 Regulation of Water System — Temporary Service Connections

(a) A temporary service connection may be installed upon approval of an application for such a connection by the Department. For purposes of this section, “temporary service connection” means a water service connection installed for use by a consumer for a period not to exceed two years. The charge for installation of a temporary service connection shall be that same as for a regular service connection pursuant to Section 67.0203. (b) It is unlawful to use a temporary service connection beyond the time period authorized by the Department, regardless of knowledge or intent. The consumer shall discontinue using the temporary service connection twelve months after installation, unless an extension of time has been granted by the Department. In no event shall a consumer use a temporary service connection for more than two years. (c) The Department has the authority to make a temporary service connection permanent at the end of the time period authorized by the Department, provided all charges for a permanent service connection, together with all bills for water furnished through such service, including all applicable charges, fees, deposits and interest, have been paid in full.
