 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

 3 § 253-b. Amendment or modification of plans. 1. When the board of
 4 supervisors or county legislature shall have established a district
 5 pursuant to this article and adopted a plan of a service or improvement
 6 for such district, such plan shall not be modified by the board of
 7 supervisors or any officer of the county nor by the administrative head
 8 or body of such district except as provided in this section. The admin-
 9 istrative head or body shall submit a report in writing to the board of
 10 supervisors specifying the particulars in which it is proposed to modify

 S. 5656 2

 1 tions of plans must have the written approval of the department of
 2 health prior to adoption. At the request of an owner of a parcel of
 3 property within the county, if the private well water on such property
 4 is contaminated, a water quality treatment district plan may be amended,
 5 from time to time, to include said parcel of property. If an owner of a
 6 parcel of property within the county requests exclusion from the
 7 district, such request shall be granted without the state department of
 8 health approval and without the procedure set forth in section two
 9 hundred fifty-six of this article. The removal of a parcel of property
 10 from a district shall in no way affect the owner's liability for charges
 11 which have accrued against the owner's property, prior to said exclu-
 12 sion, for the procurement, installation, modification, replacement and
 13 removal of a water quality treatment unit or device or for expenses of
 14 operation and maintenance including monitoring,
