(a) If the Commission determines that it is feasible, reasonable, and economical, the Commission may place in a separate class a water or sanitary sewer connection that is made to a water or sewer line installed in a street, road, alley, or right-of-way that has not been paved or otherwise improved to avoid the necessity of replacing pavement or street improvements on installation of the connection. (b) (1) The Commission may: (i) impose a connection charge based on the actual cost of the connections, including the Commission inspection charge; or (ii) provide for the installation of the connections, including taps into a main or line, by the applicant or at the applicant's cost, under supervision and inspection of the Commission. (2) The Commission may authorize any class of connection from its water line or sanitary sewer line to be constructed beyond the property line of the property to be served if the connecting line is constructed at the same time from the main to the structure on the property to be served. (c) The property owner shall pay the entire expense of the construction and maintenance of the part of the connecting line from the property line into the property.
