A. In addition to the provisions of section 12-2-9 of this chapter with respect to frozen water lines, it shall be the responsibility of the owner of a water using property to install and maintain the owner's individual service line and other related water facilities which extend from the stop and waste valve to the water using property. The stop and waste valve or submain loop valve shall be installed at or near the property line in an easement or right-of-way dedicated to the town.

B. The Director has the authority to require the owner of a water using property to repair any leak in the owner's individual service line and other related water facilities within such reasonable period of time as may be established by the Director. In establishing a reasonable period of time for the repair of a leak, the Director shall take into consideration: 1) the location of the leak; 2) the amount of water that is escaping from the leak; 3) any threat to nearby buildings and structures posed by the leak; 4) any threat to the town's water system posed by the leak; 5) the time of year when the leak occurs; 6) any practical construction difficulties the owner is likely to incur in repairing the leak; and 7) all other relevant factors.
