The District currently has nearly 10,500 wastewater connections in its service area.

The following steps are required before a property owner in the District’s service area may apply for a wastewater connection permit:

• An applicant must apply for, pay the required fee, and receive a Service Availability Letter which informs the applicant of any limitations regarding the availability of service and specifies general and special conditions that must be met before a wastewater connection permit may be issued. A Service Availability Letter is NOT a wastewater connection permit, nor does it guarantee receipt of a wastewater connection permit.
  • To apply for a Service Availability Letter, you will need to bring the following items to the District’s Engineering Department (27307 Highway 189, Blue Jay, CA 92317):
    • Grant Deed
    • Preliminary Title Report
    • Site or Plot Plan
    • Application Fee ($172.00)
    • Service Availability Application
• An applicant must take the District’s Service Availability Letter (which is valid for one year) and their building plans to the San Bernardino County Department of Building and Safety for approval.
• An applicant must provide the District with a copy of the approved set of building plans which have the San Bernardino County Department of Building and Safety’s stamp on each page and their valid Service Availability Letter.

After all of the above conditions are met, an application may be made, and required fees paid, for a wastewater connection permit. An inspection will be conducted by District Staff to determine if shoring and other mandated safety issues will require additional connection devices such as a saddle. If required, a District saddle will be provided to the contractor at cost and installed by the contractor or subcontractor at the Owner’s expense.
