Lateral Replacement Grant Program

Information on funds to fix your sewer pipe

THIS PROGRAM IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE - PLEASE CONTACT OUR OFFICE.

This innovative grant program is designed to help property owners in our district with the cost of fixing their leaky and damaged lateral sewer pipes. These private pipes connect homes and businesses to the public sewer mains and are responsible for an estimated 50% of all sewer spills! Repairing your end of the pipe helps avoid costly spills that are paid for with your tax dollars while protecting public health and the environment.

If you are experiencing chronic problems such as backups and overflows that require ongoing professional plumbing maintenance, you probably have a lateral pipe that needs repair. Other signs of leakage and damage to your pipe may be less evident. Slow running pipes, odors, and ground movement around lateral pipes may indicate a problem as well.

The link below will provide you with our lateral replacement grant program guide. The guide includes complete instructions along with a flow chart, lateral replacement grant program (LRGP) application, and approved contractor list.

Please contact us if you would like to receive the guide by mail or have questions about the program.

Testimonials

"We had to hire contractors every six months to snake our sewer pipe. We took advantage of the grant and it was as easy as can be."

- District Customer Julie Salz of Greenbrae

"When you call a public agency, you expect the same service as the DMV. I called to order a pre-inspection and two days later it happened. I was shocked at how helpful the district representative was when I ran into some problems, too."

- District Customer Scott Samet of San Anselmo
