32 Connection with private channels
(1) Wherever the undertakers lay a communication channel to the boundary of any land to be supplied with water they may either connect it to the communication channel laid on that land for the purpose or may terminate it at the boundary.
(2) Where the undertakers terminate the communication channel at the boundary of any land, the person wishing to connect a channel on the land with the undertakers' channel shall give 2 days' notice of the day and hour when he intends to make the connection, and shall make it under the superintendence, and according to the directions, of the officer appointed for that purpose by the undertakers, unless no such officer attends at the time mentioned in the notice.
(3) Such a notice is not required where the person making the connection is authorized by the undertakers to do such work without supervision.
