§ 60-75. Required equipment for septic waste receptacle cleaners; method of removal of waste.

(a)

All persons engaged in the business of cleaning or removing the contents of septic tank receptacles within the corporate limits of the city shall provide odorless, sanitary pumps and airtight, odorless tanks set upon vehicle trucks for the removal of the contents.

(b)

Any person engaged in such business shall pump the contents of any septic waste receptacles, if liquid enough to pump, directly into the odorless tanks set upon vehicle trucks by means of such odorless sanitary pumps, and no septic tank receptacle shall be emptied or the contents thereof removed in any other manner than is provided in this section; provided, however, that, when the contents of any such receptacle are of such a consistency that such odorless, sanitary pumps can in no way be used in the removal thereof, then the contents shall be taken out and removed in odorless tight barrels, in vehicles, such barrels to be kept thoroughly clean and to have airtight covers. No person shall move any of the contents of septic tank receptacles except in perfectly tight tanks, which shall be on regularly licensed vehicles.
