Your Sewer Lateral – Is It Leaking?

As a member of the North Bay Watershed Association (NBWA), Las Gallinas Valley Sanitary District, in conjunction with eight other local wastewater treatment agencies, is working to help homeowners and businesses inspect and fix their privately owned sewer laterals to protect their homes, their health and the environment. Laterals are the privately owned sewer pipelines that run from a house or business and typically connect to the public sewer main in the street. Sewer Lateral diagram with SRV

In addition to meeting local requirements, property owners are encouraged to take voluntary actions to improve their laterals.
