Ownership of Service Line

Service Line

Water service lines and building supply lines connect buried water mains to buildings to supply potable water, and sometimes to supply fire protection systems. (Plastics Pipes Institute)

 

Ownership

Ownership of service lines in the Authority’s system are jointly owned meaning that the Authority is responsible for one portion and the customer is responsible for the other.

The Authority owned portion of the service line extends from the water main to the customer’s curb box. (click Graphic below)

The customer responsibility for the service line begins at the curb box and extends into the building. (click Graphic below)
