Who will install the portion of the lateral the homeowner is responsible to construct?

The homeowner will need to hire a certified plumbing contractor to install the service line from the house to the street right-of-way and connect to the public sewer lateral. The service line construction must comply with the Municipal Authority standards and the construction will be inspected by a Municipal Authority representative. To assist the homeowner, a link has been provided on the Municipal Authority page of the Township website to the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Home Improvement Consumer Information website hicsearch.attorneygeneral.gov where the homeowner can find a certified plumbing contractor.
