To obtain a lateral permit either log in below or call our offices at 510-276-4700 for access.  Lateral repair permits can be paid for by credit card or mailing a check to the District offices.  To use the online permit system a valid credit card is required for payment, which is made through the Stripe secure payment service.  Once the required information is entered and the credit card payment is processed, the approved permit will be displayed in your Internet browser as an Adobe PDF file.  You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed in order to view and print the permit.  If you do not already have Acrobat Reader on your computer, you can download and install it here.

NOTE: you must be a licensed contractor, or use a licensed contractor to perform the repair, if the work will require (a) exposing, repairing, or connecting to the sewer main in the street; (b) replacement of a "Y"-connector; or (c) replacement of the entire lateral line from the house to the street.  If the work is only from the house to the sidewalk, the homeowner may perform the work themselves.  If you have any question as to whether a licensed contractor is required, please call our Engineering Department at 510-276-4700 for assistance.
