The sewer lines shall conform to the requirements of the department of environmental management. B. In subdivisions where sewer connections cannot be made to an existing sewer system the subdivider shall meet the requirements of the state health department relating to sewage disposal. C. Where a subdivision is within an area proposed to be served by public sewer system as indicated by a proposed master plan for sewer development on file in the department of environmental management, and where such public sewer system is listed in the County's capital budget or capital improvements program, sewer lines shall be installed for all lots, and connected to a community cesspool system, subject to meeting the minimum requirements of the state health department.
