Any conforming functioning system constructed before <br />1/1/78 shall connect to the sewer witr.»' 16 months of Its <br />availability. Such systems will hav^ m useful service <br />life of 16 years or more. <br />4. Any conforming system constructed between 1/1/78 and 1/1/88 <br />shall connect within 36 months of sewer availability or by <br />1/1/96, thus ensuring that such systems shall have had a <br />useful service Iife of botween 8 and 17 years. <br />5. Any conforming system constructed after 1/1/88 shall <br />connect within 60 months of the date of availability or by <br />1/1/98, thus allowing a minimum of 6 years and up to 10 years <br />of useful service life for those systems. <br />6.
