Sewer Service Availability Letters
Applicants seeking new sanitary sewer service shall first obtain a "Sewer Service Availability Letter" from the District. Requests for sewer service shall be made in writing to the District General Manager. To verify sewer service availability, the District may require the applicant to prepare a "Sewer Feasibility Study". Sewer Feasibility Studies are commonly required for large developments and commercial/industrial establishments (requirements provided below).

- Major street names in the study area
- Description of proposed land use(s)/zoning
- Tributary areas and their land uses/zoning
- Gross and net land areas
- Calculated average and peak sewage flow rates based on the tributary area, land use and sewage generation factors
- Facilities that may have a bearing on the sewer design such as storm drains, utilities, road, etc.
- Depth of existing sewer at proposed connection point(s)
- Identified downstream sewer deficiencies
- Other information necessary for the proper analysis of the sewer system
