(xi) Permit surveys of public roads, parks and other public facil-

ities to ascertain whether they are kept free of trash, litter, refuse,

and other solid waste materials. The plan shall include functions to
be performed by the State Roads Commission, the Department of
forests and Parks, the Department of Natural Resources, the De-
partment of Chesapeake Bay Affairs (if applicable), and any local

Department of Public Health. The plan may further recruit the

cooperation of private individual, county, State and federal govern-

ment agencies to prevent scenic pollution of public and private

property.

(c) 1. The State Department of Health shall adopt and from time
to time, amend regulations which

(i) Provide for control, limitation or prohibition of installing or
using individual or community water supply or sewerage systems;

(ii) Require the governing body of each county to submit reports
of progress in the development of county plans.

(iii) Stipulate such other matters as may be necessary and ap-
propriate to the administration of this subsection;

(iv) Require consideration of the present and future density of
population, size of the lots, contour of the land, porosity and absorb-
ency of the soil, ground water conditions and variations therein
from time to time and place to place, including availability of water
from unpolluted aquifers or portions thereof, type of construction
of community water supply and sewerage systems, size of the pro-
posed development, and other pertinent factors;

(v) Require the installation of community water supply, sewer-
age or solid waste disposal systems and the connection of all premises
thereto or the service of all premises thereby if such systems are
reasonably necessary giving due consideration to such factors as are
set forth in paragraph 1(iv) of this subsection. Such systems shall
be designed so as to permit connection to a larger system at such time
as the larger system becomes available;

(vi) Permit individual water supply or sewerage systems in areas
where community water supply or sewerage systems are neither
available nor required to be installed under paragraph l(v) pro-
vided that:

(A)    Such individual water supply or sewerage systems are ad-
judged by the Department to be adequate and safe for use during
the period before a community water supply or sewerage system is
scheduled to become available;

(B)    Adequate provisions are made prior to or at the time of the
installation of such individual systems to permit the discontinuance
of their use and the connection of the premises served thereby to the
community water supply or sewerage system, in as economical and
convenient a way as can be foreseen. Such provision shall include
either the posting of a bond with satisfactory surety to secure to the
governing body of the county the actual construction and installation
of community water supply or sewerage systems at a time fixed by
the governing body of the county, and in accordance with the regula-
tions issued hereunder and with all other State and county require-
ments; or such other arrangements as may be deemed necessary and
adequate to accomplish the purposes of this subsection;
