§ 68-34. Plumbing applications and permits.

A. 

Before any plumbing work is started in a building or before any additions or alterations are made to old work, an application properly completed and signed by a licensed plumber shall be filed in the office of the Plumbing Inspector, together with plans and descriptions in duplicate showing and describing the proposed work, except that where only stoppages are removed or leaks repaired or where plumbing fixtures are replaced without altering or disturbing any drain or soil, waste or vent pipe, no application or permit will be required.

B. 

The plumbing plans shall consist of such floor plans and sections as may be necessary to show clearly all the work to be done, including all sewers, drains and soil, waste and vent pipelines and the location of fixtures and their traps and connections, together with all other information specifically requested by the Plumbing Inspector.

C. 

No work shall proceed until the plumbing plans and specifications have been approved and a permit has been issued by the Building Inspector or by a Plumbing Inspector.

D. 

Modification of approved plans or of the work described therein shall not be permitted unless such changes have been previously allowed by the Plumbing Inspector on written application.

E. 

Permits issued with reference to plumbing shall expire under the same time limitations as set forth above for general permits.
