§1251. Definitions
As used in this chapter, unless the context indicates otherwise, "sewer district" means any district, including multipurpose districts, created by the private and special laws of the State whose purposes include collection, interception and treatment of sewerage, except those districts whose sewerage activities are confined to interception and treatment shall be exempt from the requirements of this chapter. [1981, c. 466, §13 (NEW).]
Those districts whose sewerage collection activities are limited to collection performed pursuant to a contract with one or more municipalities are exempt from the requirements of this chapter, except as specified in this section. Such sewerage collection activities may include the ownership, maintenance or operation of the collection facilities, but not the fixing of rate schedules for their use. In the event ownership of collection facilities by a district for service by contract to a municipality is contemplated, the district shall for those facilities be subject to the requirements of section 1252, subsection 7. [1981, c. 628, (NEW).]
