RULES AND REGULATIONS
1.0 General Information: The Company's Rules and Regulations, insofar
as they are inconsistent with any statute, ordinance, law, or legis-
lation now in effect, shall be null and void. These Cies and Reg-
ulations are a part of the rate schedules, applications and
contracts of the Company, and in the absence of specific written
agreement to the contrary, they apply without modifications or
change to each and every Consumer to whom the Company renders sewer
service.
In the event that a portion of these Rules and Regulations is de-
clared unconstitutional or void for any reason by any court of
competent jurisdiction, such decision shall in no way affect the
validity of the remaining portions of the Rules and Regulations for
water service unless such court order or decision shall. so direct.
2.0 Sewer Service: To obtain sewer service, application should be made
at the office of the Company. Applications are accepted by the
Company with the understanding that there is no obligation on the
part of the Company to render sewer service other than that which is
then available from its existing sewage treatment facilities and
distribution equipment and sewer lines.
The applicant shall furnish to the Company the correct name, street
address, and lot and block number at which sewer service is to be
rendered.
3.0 Signed Application Necessary: Sewer service is furnished only upon
signed application or agreement accepted by the Company and the
conditions of such application or agreement are binding upon the
Consumer as well as upon the Company. A copy of each application or
agreement for sewer service accepted by the Company will be
furnished to the applicant on request.
4.0 Application by Agents: Applications for sewer service requested
by firms, partnerships, associations, corporations, and others,
shall be tendered only by duly authorized parties. When sewer
service is rendered under agreement or agreements entered into be-
tween the Company and an agent of the principal, the use of such
sewer service by the principal shall constitute full and complete
ratification by the principal of the agreement or agreements entered
into between agents and the Company and under which such sewer
service is rendered.

or business for sewer service has been settled in full.
6.0 Extensions: The Company will make such extensions to its existing
facilities as may be required by one or more Consumers provided the

and reasonable return on the cost of providing and rendering the

guarantees, contributions in aid of construction, or other arrange-
ments with the Consumer, whereby the Company will be enabled to earn

lines. In no case shall a Consumer, except with the written consent
of the Company, extend his lines across a street, alley, lane,
court, property line, avenue, or other way in order to furnish sewer
service for adjacent property, even though such adjacent property be
owned by him. In case of such unauthorized extension, sale, or
disposition of service, Consumer's sewer service is subject to
discontinuance until such unauthorized extension, sale or
disposition is discontinued and full payment is made of bills for
sewer service, calculated on proper classification and rate
schedules and reimbursement in full made to the Company for all
extra expenses incurred for clerical work, testing and inspections.

governmental interference, acts of God or other causes beyond its

ment shall be selected, installed, used and maintained in accordance

be responsible for their maintenance and operation. The Consumer

• properly constructed, controlled and protected, or which may
adversely affect the sewer service; and the Company reserves the
right to discontinue or withhold water service to such apparatus or
device.

Sewer Service
19.0 Temporary Discontinuance of Service: At any time that sewer service
is not being furnished to the premises, as confirmed by the Company
furnishing said sewer service, upon application to the Company by
the Consumer for a temporary shutoff, billing for sewer service to
the premises will be continued at the Seasonal Rate.
20.0 Evidence of Consumption: When a flat rate is charged for sanitary
sewer service, the initiation or continuation or resumption of water
service to the premises shall constitute the initiation,
continuation, or resumption of sanitary sewer service to the
premises, regardless of occupancy.
21.0 Tax Clause: Rates and/or charges may be increased or a surcharge
added in the amount of the applicable proportionate part of any
taxes and assessments imposed by any governmental authority in
excess of those in effect which are assessed on the basis of meters
or customers or the price of, or revenues from, water sold.
22.0 Change of Occupancy: When change of occupancy takes place on any
premises supplied by the Company with sewer service, WRITTEN NOTICE
thereof shall be given at the office of the Company nd less than
three days prior to the date of change by the outgoing Consumer, who
will be held responsible for all sewer service used on such premises
until such written notice is so received and the Company has had
reasonable time to discontinue sewer service. However, if such
written notice has not been received, the application of a
succeeding occupant for sewer service will automatically terminate
the prior account. Consumer's deposit may be transferred from one
service location to another, if both locations are supplied by the
Company. Consumer's deposit may NOT be transferred from one name to
another.
For the convenience of its Consumers, the Company will accept
telephone orders to discontinue or transfer sewer service and will
use all reasonable diligence in the execution thereof. However,
oral orders or advice cannot be deemed binding or be considered
formal notification to the Company.
23.0 Unauthorized Connections: Connections to the Company's water system
for any purpose whatsoever are to be made only by employees of the
Company. Unauthorized connections render the service subject to
immediate discontinuance without notice and sewer service will not
be restored until such unauthorized connections have been removed,
and unless settlement is made in full for all sewer service
estimated by the Company to have been used by reason of such
unauthorized connection.

error is determined,the amount may be credited or billed to the
Consumer, as the case may be.

requests that service be interrupted for any length of time will pay the
Seasonal Rate during that period of interruption. Any customer who
attempts to circumvent this charge by closing his account (and requesting
deposit refund) at time of temporary departure and then returning several
months later as a new customer will be held liable for the Seasonal Rate
during the disconnected months. The payment of the Seasonal Rate will be
made monthly.
Terms of Payment - Bills are due and payable when rendered and become
delinquent if not paid within twenty days, and service may, after five
days written notice, be discontinued.
Billing - The billing month dates shall coincide with the billing month
for water service. Bills rendered for less than 50% of the normal
billing period will be billed in accordance with Rule 25-10.111(2),
Florida Administrative Code: "Whenever, for any reason, the period of
service for which a bill is rendered is less than fifty percent (50%) of
the normal billing period, the charges applicable to such service,
including minimum charges, shall be prorated in the proportion that the
actual number of service days bears to a thirty (30) day month; except
that:
(a) Opening bills need not be rendered but may be carried over to
and included in the next regular monthly billing.
(b) For service taken under flat rate schedules, fift percent
(50%) of the normal charges may be applied.
(c) The practices employed by the utility in this regard shall have
