sink drains, and privies located on properties connected to sewers provided by the
County shall be abandoned, closed, and left in a sanitary condition so that no odor or
nuisance will arise therefrom. No roof or other drainage facilities shall discharge to
the County's water and sewerage facilities. Any violation of the provisions of this
section is a misdemeanor punishable under [Section 15-24] § 14-801 of this [subtitle]
TITLE.
[15-13.] 14-304. Bid and contracts for work done.
Whenever the plans and specifications for water, sewerage, or drainage systems
or extensions [thereof] shall have been completed and the Board has decided to
proceed with construction, [it] THE BOARD shall, when required by this [subtitle]
TITLE, by notice in one newspaper published in Carroll County and [such]
newspapers and technical press as it may deem proper, advertise for bids for the
construction of the system or systems, in part or as a whole, as in its judgment may
appear advisable. The contract shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder, or the
Board may reject any or all bids; and, if in its discretion the prices quoted are
unreasonable or unbalanced, [it] THE BOARD may readvertise the work or any part of
[it] THE WORK or may do any part or all of the work by day labor; provided that any
time the Board, in its discretion, may expend by day labor for construction and for
supplies and equipment an amount not exceeding [five thousand dollars ($5,000.00)]
$5,000 without advertising and receiving bids. Ail such contracts shall be protected by
[such] bonds, penalties, and conditions as the Board may require, all of which shall
be enforced in any court having jurisdiction.
[15-14.] 14-305. Work on private systems; restrictions.
No sewerage, water, or drainage system or extension [thereof] serving two or
more properties in Carroll County may be constructed by any private owner without
the prior approval of the Board. If upon application for the construction or extension
of any such system the Board determines that the construction or extension is
inexpedient or impracticable at that time, owing to the remoteness from its general
system or other considerations, the applicant may build and operate the system or
extension thereof at its own expense; but it shall be constructed only under such plans
and specifications as have been submitted to and approved by the Board, and its
maintenance and operation shall be under the general control or supervision of the
Board. No [such] system or part [thereof] OF THE SYSTEM or no water main, sewer,
storm water drain, water purification or sewage treatment plan or no connection with
any of them shall be constructed or installed except as in this section provided, and
any violation of this provision shall be a misdemeanor punishable under [Section
15-24 of this subtitle] § 14-801 OF THIS TITLE. The applicant for the construction or
extension of any such privately-owned system shall bear the reasonable costs that
the Board may incur for the review and approval of any [such] plans and for the
supervision by the Board of the maintenance and operation of [such] THE system. All
construction and operating records including cost records shall be fifed with the
Board, which shall be empowered at any time to take over [said] THE system or part
[thereof] OF THE SYSTEM or [said] THE water main, sewer, storm water drain, water
purification or sewage treatment plant or connection with any of them in the same
manner as provided under [Section 15-5] § 14-201 OF THIS TITLE. Nothing in this
section impairs the rate making powers of the Public Service Commission nor
