Water related emergencies outside of highway work hours must be reported by calling 9 1 1. They will then contact the appropriate authorities.
The Town Board has decided that the individual service line material installed by the individual from the curb-stop to the valve inside of the customer’s house may be either:
¾” type “K” copper tubing or 1” virgin resin, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tubing, meeting AWWA Specification C901, and capable of sustaining indefinitely a pressure load of 200 psi at room temperature. (This material should be a type 3, grade P33, class C material as per AWWA.)
If polyethylene service line material is installed, it must be installed strictly according to the pipe manufacturers recommendations (example: must be imbedded in 6” of sand above and below the water pipe or inserted through or inside 4” drain tile from curb stop to basement wall.)
Water related emergencies outside of highway work hours must be reported by calling 9 1 1. They will then contact the appropriate authorities.

Any and every time an individual property owner does work on the water service from the water main through, to, and including the water meter, this event concerns the Town. The Town Water Department must be notified in advance for the work to be inspected and approved before it is covered-up and returned to service.
Notes:
A two day notice is required before inspection;
Sand bedding, select fill or sleeving is required
Once the water service is inside of the home or building and before any connections are made to the interior system, it is required that the individual property owner install in sequence (from the outer wall inward toward the water user’s devices):
This material must all be rated to withstand a 200 psi operating pressure.
Minimum size for this material should be 1”.
These appurtenances should all be installed in one assembly. This assembly should be readily accessible for easy maintenance.
