Permits & Inspections

The Authority issues sanitary sewer permits for commercial, industrial, and residential buildings upon a complete plan review and capacity analysis. A sanitary sewer connection permit issued by the Authority is required in order to process Peachtree City Building permit applications. Permits will be issued once plans have been reviewed and approved, and once sewer connection fees have been paid. For any development requiring an extension to the public gravity sewer system, permits will be issued upon the acceptance and warranty of sewer and receipt of payment for the sewer connection fee.

All public sanitary sewers must be approved and inspected by Authority officials. An inspection of sewer, which will include video inspection and an air pressure test and mandrel, will be scheduled for all projects requiring an extension to the public gravity sewer system. Commercial inspections will be scheduled as needed for tap inspections. All inspections will be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance. However, the Authority reserves the right to perform random on-site inspections during the construction process.

All sanitary sewer work that will involve any encroachment into a Georgia Department of Transportation right-of-way will require submission of a permit to the Georgia Utilities Permitting System (GUPS).
