The office has moved!! Sister Lakes Area Utilities Authority is now located at 50652 Garret Rd.
Whenever a new parcel is created through a land split, in the sewer district.
Whenever there is a need to disconnect from the existing sewer line, such as when you plan to demolish an existing structure that is connected to sewer and then rebuild a new structure and reconnect to the same sewer line.
Note: If you plan to simply demolish a structure and disconnect with no plan to rebuild, then you still need a disconnect permit but the fee is reduced.
* It is very important to properly cap the sewer line, and have it inspected, to avoid costly damage to the lift stations in the sewer system.
* Damage caused to the lift stations due to irresponsible disconnection from, and inadequate capping of the open sewer line, can result in costly charges for repairs and/or replacement of equipment to the responsible party. It is very important to make sure that no dirt or other debris get into the sewer line while it is open, as this can cause very serious and irreversible damage to the pumps in the lift stations.
The sewer line from the tap to the home is the property owner’s responsibility. The sewer authority will not be able to help with locating this portion of the line unless we receive an as-built drawing. It is the property owner’s responsibility to make sure the sewer authority receives as-built drawings. Please contact your contractor to request that they provide a drawing to the Sister Lakes Utilities Authority.
