A campground owner shall ensure that the interior of the privy above the vault is constructed of smooth, easily cleanable, nonabsorbent materials and that all openings are screened. A campground owner shall ensure that a privy has a self-closing door. A campground owner shall ensure that a privy that has a capacity of more than 1 individual has privacy partitions.
