| Connection Fees and Requirements Residential* |
| |
| The Ohio Revised Code requires all homes within two hundred (200) feet of a main sewer line must be connected to the sewer. Connection to the water lines is at the discretion of the homeowner. |
| |
| As of April 22, 2010, Licking County Water and Wastewater requires our personnel to conduct an on-site visit evaluation prior to excavation of the property. Appointments must be scheduled through the Billing Office at 740-670-5440. This visit will determine location of water lines and/or sewer lines and STEP tank placement. The following must be completed before scheduling of the on-site visit: |
- Property lines marked and visible
- General house/building location marked and visible
- Water well location marked and visible (new sewer service only)
- House/building sewer discharge location and elevation, if available
|
| We do require a forty- eight (48) hour scheduling notice for this visit. |
| |
| Once this evaluation is complete, then a tap-in permit may be issued. All new customers or their contractors should telephone or come to our office at 65 East Main Street, Newark, with the property’s physical address, lot number, addition and parcel number. Once all information is verified, then a permit may be purchased and signed for the new service. Permits are valid for ninety (90) days from date of purchase. |
| Customers will be hiring their own contractors but our operators must be present for inspection at the time of actual tap-in. We require a forty-eight (48) hour scheduling notice. |
| |
| Sewer service charges will begin from date of tap. Water billing will begin when the water meter is installed. Meters must be accessible to the water employees at all times. water sewer rates |
| |
| Existing homes that are deemed a source of pollution by the Board of Health and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency may fall under the previous capacity fees. Each case will be reviewed by appropriate authority and connection fees will be approved by the Board of Licking County Commissioners. |
| |
| Commercial units will be evaluated on an individual basis. Please contact our Billing Office at 740-670-5440 for information. |
