RULE AND REGULATION NO. 14
a. When a fire service connection for private fire protection is
installed, the identical installation charge as set forth in
Rule and Regulation No. 5 shall apply. Upon the completion
and installation, the valve governing same will be closed and
sealed, and remain so until a written order is received from
the owner of the premises to have the water turned on. After
the water is turned on, the Board shall not be liable for
damages of any kind whatsoever that may occur to the premises
served by reason of the installation, maintenance, use,
fluctuation of pressure, or interruption of supply.
b. The monthly rates to be charged and collected for service used
for fire protection purposes shall be as follows:
2" Pipe or Less $ 8.00

c. If water is used through a fire service connection for any
other purpose than extinguishing of fires, the Board shall
have the right to place a meter on the fire service connection
at the owner's expense, or shut off the entire water supply
from such premises. Upon installation of such meter, the
water rates as prescribed in Rule and Regulation No. 21 herein
shall apply, in addition to the service charge as hereinbefore
set forth in Rule and Regulation No. 14, Paragraph (b).
d. The Board shall have the right to take a domestic, commercial,
or industrial service connection from the fire service
connection at the curb to supply the same premises as those
to which the fires service connection belongs. The Board
shall also have the right to determine the proportion of the
installation costs properly chargeable to each service
connection, if such segregation of cost shall become neces-
sary.
e. The Board reserves the right to install on all fire service
connections a check valve of a type approved by the National
Board of Fire Underwriters, and to equip the same with a
bypass meter; such installation shall be at the expense of the
