Approval to Carry Out Sewerage Work - Gilgandra Shire Council - New South Wales

Description

You will need this approval to carry out sewerage work. Sewerage work includes any construction or maintenance on pipes or fittings which connect, with a public sewer, septic tank or similar effluent disposal system.

There are multiple stages to getting your proposed sewerage work approved, with different authorities responsible for different aspects of the approval process:

  • you have to apply to the relevant local Council for approval to conduct sewerage work
  • you may also need approval from Hunter Water or Sydney Water if you are carrying out work in their areas
  • you will need to submit a 'Notice of Work' to NSW Fair Trading (or a delegated authority) to provide them with an opportunity to inspect all plumbing and drainage work to ensure that it meets the required standards.

Please note that plumbing and drainage work can only be carried out by individuals that hold the relevant professional licences.
