Waterworks.

(4) In the case of a new inside service the licensed plumber before submitting Form G shall ascertain from the water authority the point at which a connexion from the waterworks to the premises will be given.

(5) As soon as possible after receipt of Form G the water authority shall inform the licensed plumber on Form H if the proposals are approved. If they are not approved Form G will be returned to the licensed plumber with the reasons for approval being withheld. The licensed plumber shall notify the water authority in writing when he proposes to commence work which has been approved, giving at least three days' clear notice.

(6) Where urgent repair work has to be carried out the licensed plumber may proceed at once without submitting Form G. He shall, however, notify the water authority in writing as soon as possible giving details of the work being carried out. When repair work involves only the provision of new washers for taps neither Form G nor notification of work being carried out is required.

[CAP. 102

(7) No part of an inside service shall be extended or constructed to include any draw off point in any garden, lawn, bowling green or sports area of any kind, or in any place where the use of water from the waterworks is not purely for domestic or for other approved purpose. Rubber or other type flexible hose shall not be used except with the written consent of the water authority.

(8) The water authority's decision as to the size and position of the inside service pipes and fittings, the number of fittings and the position of the meter shall be final.

(9) No pipes and fittings forming the inside service shall be covered up until they have been inspected and approved by the water authority.

(10) When the work is completed to the boundary of the premises an application in Form I shall be made to the water authority for a connexion to the waterworks. A final inspection will then be made and, if the inside service is in order and the consumer has signed the appropriate undertaking in Form F, the portion on Crown land and the connexion to the main will be laid and the meter fixed by the water authority at the cost of the consumer.
