§ 1793. Application of plumbing rules

(a) Notwithstanding the requirements of any plumbing code adopted by the Plumber’s Examining Board under 26 V.S.A. § 2173(a), a toilet facility may be designated for use by persons of any gender. No separate male or female facility is required if the total number of required plumbing fixtures is provided by toilet facilities designated for use by persons of any gender.

(b) When the total number of required plumbing fixtures in a plumbing code adopted by the Plumber’s Examining Board under 26 V.S.A. § 2173(a) is fixed separately for women and men, the Plumber’s Examining Board shall make rules consistent with this chapter to govern how plumbing fixtures in toilet facilities designated for use by persons of any gender shall contribute to the total number of plumbing fixtures required by the plumbing code. (Added 2017, No. 127 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
