               use, alter, or disturb any public sewer or appurtenance thereof without first obtaining
               written approval from the director. All costs and expenses incidental to the installation
               and connection of the building sewer shall be borne by the owner. The owner shall
               indemnify the county from any loss or damage that may not extend to loss or damage
               due solely to willful misconduct or negligence on the part of the county. Excluding
               industrial plant sites or other sites which have written approval from the director
               for single discharge points, a separate and independent building sewer shall be provided
               for every building.

               It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to keep and maintain the building
               sewer connected to the public sewer in good repair. The owner shall be responsible
               for making necessary repairs, at his own expense, to the building sewer when notified
               in writing by the director that repairs are necessary. If the director determines
               that the building sewer is creating a health hazard, i.e., sewer running out on the
               ground, he may abate such nuisance by the disconnection of water going to the building.
               In addition thereto, he may pursue administrative and court procedures to abate the
               nuisance and have the desired repairs made to the building sewer.

               Grease, oil and sand interceptor sewers shall be provided when, in the opinion of
               the director, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes containing
               floatable oil in excessive amounts, sand, or other harmful ingredients; except that
               such interceptors shall not be required for private living quarters or dwelling units.
               All interceptors shall be of a type and capacity approved by the director, and shall
               be located as to be readily and easily accessible for cleaning and inspection. Where
               installed, all grease, oil and sand interceptors shall be maintained by the owner,
               at his expense, in continuously efficient operation at all times. In the maintaining
               of these interceptors, owners shall be responsible for the proper removal and disposal
               by appropriate means of the captured material and shall maintain records of the dates
               and means of disposal which are subject to review by the director. Any removal and
               hauling of the collected materials not performed by the owner's personnel must be
               performed by currently licensed waste disposal firms.
