RCNY § 143.15
No privy shall be constructed otherwise than in accordance with the requirements imposed by the Department in issuing the authorization for its temporary use, and no privy shall be maintained or used so as to create a nuisance or health hazard. A privy shall be covered and protected so as not to be exposed to the outer air. It shall not be allowed to pollute a well or water supply system, or to discharge sewage on surface ground level. Privies shall be protected against rodents, insects and other pests. When a privy is no longer to be used, it shall be thoroughly cleansed so that it will not cause a nuisance or health hazard, and it shall be filled in so as to prevent accidents.
