Sewer Lateral Certification Testing and Inspections
Various districts throughout the greater San Francisco Bay Area are now requiring sewer lateral certifications prior to transfer of the title. There are multiple ways of testing sewer laterals depending on your area and their requirement and/or code(s).
A Private Sewer Lateral (PSL) is the pipe that connects a business or home’s plumbing system to the City’s wastewater collection main pipeline. The lateral is considered the “private” segment when it is located on private property and serves the purposes of an individual, privately-owned building. The property owner is responsible for entire pipe length, including the wye or saddle at the point of connection to the City’s mainline.
City, County and private sanitary districts are responsible for the maintenance of the main pipelines that carry used water from homes and businesses and to protect public health and safety, these pipes are regularly inspected and repaired to maintain their integrity. With thousands of private sewer laterals in the City, property and owners are important partners in assuring that complete systems pipes are properly maintained.
