Establish Service
Sewer Connection Permits must be obtained at the Authority’s business office during regular business hours. If you prefer, we can shorten your visit by having a permit ready for you. Just call ahead with the necessary information:
- Location of lot including Map/Block & Lot #
- Owner’s name, current mailing address, and phone number
- Contractor’s name, address, and phone number
In addition, a check in the amount of $2,750.00 made payable to W.A.A. is required before the permit can be issued. This amount represents a tapping fee of $2,700.00 per EDU and a $50.00 fee for one inspection. Should additional inspections be required, you will be billed $50.00 per inspection.

Having Problems?
The Waymart Area Authority does not perform maintenance or conduct repairs of private laterals. If requested the Authority will verify that our main lines are flowing freely and not contributing to any backups of sewage.
If the service lateral must be replaced because of deterioration of the line or if it must be relocated for construction, a sewer permit must be obtained and the construction inspected by W.A.A.
