Sewer systems filings ensure sanitary disposal of waste and sustainable design of communities.
Under the BC Sewerage System Regulation every owner who wants to construct, alter or repair a sewerage system must retain the services of an Authorized Person. An Authorized Person is a Professional or a Registered Onsite Wastewater Practitioner.
How to access
Before construction of a sewerage system, an authorized person must submit a record of sewerage system filing to the local health authority. Our staff will contact you within 5 business days to collect payment for record of sewerage system filings.
Once the construction of a sewerage system has been completed, a signed letter of certification must be submitted to the local health authority by the authorized person within 30 days of completion.
