EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 76

Explanation: This Executive Order (EO) serves to amend EO No. 57, which authorized owners and users of unregistered or unauthorized water/sewer connections to regularize their status without incurring penalties. The purpose is to facilitate compliance with the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) rules and regulations.
Key Definitions:
- Unbilled, Unregistered, and Unauthorized Installations: Connections that draw water without passing through a registered meter or that discharge wastewater into MWSS systems without proper application.

Explanation: The amendment extends the initial compliance period designated by EO No. 57 from one month to one month and fifteen days following the publication of this order.
Important Requirements:
- Owners/users must comply with specific MWSS requirements to regularize their water/sewer connections during this extended period.

Relevant Timeframes:
- The deadline for compliance is now set to be one month and fifteen days following the first publication date of this Executive Order.
Expiration Details: The original period of regularization was set to expire on March 31, 1993, but this amendment offers additional time for compliance.

Consequences: The amendment allows for the regularization of connections without penalties during the specified compliance period.
Liabilities: Failure to comply within the extended timeframe may result in penalties, but specifics are not stated within this document.

Related Legislation: This Executive Order builds upon the provisions of EO No. 57, which initially set forth the guidelines for regularization.

EO No. 76 amends EO No. 57 to extend the compliance period for regularizing unregistered water/sewer connections by an additional fifteen days.
Owners/users of such connections are encouraged to regularize without penalties within the new deadline.
The amendment aims to increase MWSS revenues by encouraging the disclosure and regularization of unregistered connections.
