§ 190-5. Design wastewater flow rate.

A. 

The maximum design wastewater flow rate for a sewer connection from any existing lot within the Groton Center Sewer System shall be based upon state design standards for existing buildings or for a six-bedroom duplex of new construction. A maximum of one sewer connection per lot, as shown on a plan of land entitled "Groton Center Sewer System," drawn by Dufresne-Henry, Inc., and dated April 1988, will be allowed, and commercial buildings will be permitted, the flow equivalent based on state design standards of a six-bedroom duplex.

B. 

Any future sewer connection from any lot within the Groton Center Sewer System, as shown on said plan, that is permitted after April 29, 1989, and having a design wastewater flow rate greater than the maximum design wastewater flow rate determined in accordance with the provisions of Subsection A shall be permitted only following a majority vote by a Special or Annual Town Meeting expressly authorizing such sewer connections and use and subject to availability of such capacity, in accordance with the agreement between the Towns of Groton and Pepperell. Where so required, the Town shall purchase additional treatment capacity under said agreement for which the Town shall be fully reimbursed by the developer/property owner receiving the same. The additional treatment capacity purchased shall be the excess of such greater flow rate over the maximum design wastewater flow rate for a six-bedroom duplex.
