Permit Deposit for Cost, Fees and Forms

In the Port Washington WPCD, property owners own and are responsible for the maintenance (and replacement, when necessary) of the building drain (house connection) from the structure to its point of connection to the sewer lateral in the street. Anytime your house connection is being worked on by a licensed and bonded plumber other than for cleaning (1), you are required to obtain a permit from the District. The table below contains the “Deposit-for-Cost” associated with specific permits effective July 20th, 2023.  

**Any funds not utilized will be returned to the applicant following issuance of permit. Applicants will be required to provide additional “Deposit-for-Cost” should multiple site inspections (greater than one full work day) or changes in the proposed plans requiring multiple reviews are required.**
